Everyone knows I take Terp losses real hard, so I was not in the best of moods Sunday as I drove to the stadium to watch what i thought would be a Ravens uninspired loss.This is the lesson I learned: I will never pay attention to preseason games again. #20 #22 #21 and unfortunately #86 all played (Reed, Rolle, McCallister and Heap) and the Ravens behind brilliant play stratgy from OC Cam Cameron dominated Cinci. Flacco displayed tremendous poise … Read More »
A series of improbable events have left the Ravens with no other option then starting Rookie QB Joe Flacco this coming Sunday. The Ravens have also signed Joey Harrington who will probably be the backup for the game. Chad Ocho Cinco will play for the Bengals. After the disaster of bringing Kyle Boller along too quickly, common sense would have dictated Boller or Troy Smith as starter, but setbacks to each have place the Ravens in a no other choice … Read More »
The 4th exhibition game is usually a 1 quarter game and the Ravens Falcons game at M&T was no exception. Joe Flacco looked sharp in sustaining a few drives. His short passes were on the money, yet he panicked when pressured. It’s incredible that after the Kyle Boller starting disaster, the Ravens might be forced into starting #5. This time however it is injury driven. Matt Ryan was very unimpressive for the Falcons. All in all the … Read More »
The talk is over, it’s time for Jordan Steffey to step up to the plate and connect on Satyrday. Coach Friedgen and Coach Franklin have stuck their necks way out on the line for Jordan, now let’s see how he responds. Ex-Terp Shawne “Lights Out” Merriman has decided to play with the knee surgery in what I believe is a very unwise decision. The Ravens QB mess has worsened with the realization that Kyle Boller may be out for … Read More »

In a stunning surprise move, Coach Ralph Friedgen has chosen Senior QB Jordan Steffey to take over the helm of the Terrapin offense. “It was a hard decision,” Friedgen said. “[The coaching staff] talked about it for a long time last night. We looked at every statistic that we kept, from pass completions, yards per catch, yards after catch, interceptions, percentage of drives scoring, good practices and bad practices. We even consulted with some of the players. Really when you … Read More »
uncey Billups As predicted right here, the USA received revenge last night as they walloped Greece. Here’s my concern about this team that I voiced on air tonight. Was Jason KIdd the right choice, this game requires a shooting pt guard and Jason just cant fill the hole anymore. Pull up shooters like Agent Zero, Chauncey Billups or Derek Fischer would have been much better choices. Look for the opposition to totally disregard the point guard’s shooting on the USA. … Read More »
Setyour VCR, Tivo, etc for Thursday morning at 8AM when Kobe, Lebron and the guys attempt to settle unfinished business with Greece who last defeated and humiliated the USA sans Kobe. If the USA can destroy this team they will and I add they should. This is a much stronger and dedicated team then lost to Greece. The mere inference of the word loss will be the catalyst in a 20 point win. Thursday night on Terp Talk we … Read More »
