PAY JOE FLACCO already—-And I mean don’t wait til this summer –give him his 100 Plus million and move on. In successive weeks, he beat Andrew Luck(the next peyton), Peyton Manning, and Tom Brady—again. Smokin’Joe is 8-4 in the playoffs. Since Joe Caldwell has taken over , he is rejuvenated. Joe is elite!!! There are 10 NFL teams that would do anything to get him. I don’t care what happens in the Super Bowl!!!!!
What a tremendous turnout by Baltimore … Read More »
Okay our great city and my great University have suffered some horrendous losses in my lifetime. But this one might have been the worst. There have been big losses–Super Bowl III to the Jets, 1969 World series Loss to the Mets, 2 7th game losses to the Pirates, the Final Four loss to Duke, the Orange Bowl defeat to Florida. There have been painful losses, the playoff loss to Green Bay on Chandlers failed kick ruled Good, Michigan State’s miracle … Read More »
Here’s the scoop:
The Ravens move back to #2 seed—win out and we have a bye and AT LEAST 1 HOME GAME. Should New England lose to either Miami (a possibility or Buffalo (no possibility) at home then we could recapture #1 seeding.
Vernon Davis, another Terrapin came up huge in the 49ers’ 1st touchdown catching 3 balls including the TD.
I wonder how much time the brothers spent on the phone today prepping for this game. Tomlin is … Read More »
Some random thoughts of the worst and most disappointing Ravens loss in recent memory:
In my discussions with Joe Platanis on the Sports Maven on Saturday, I told him I was concerned that the Ravens offense was just too predictable. We shout out that #27 is going to get 25-30 touches and what happened yesterday was bound to happen.

I am as hard on our teams as anyone, and I’ve never seen what anyone has against Flacco.
Look at his home stats. Amazing. He has won more games than any other QB since he’s been in the league.
So, if someone can win always, put up those stats at home, it’s only a matter of time before they do it everywhere. Once they get comfortable.
Look at GB. Rodgers has had the same team for 3+ … Read More »
I was listening to “Cover 2” with RobLong on 105.7 and Rob pressed his guest LaDarius Webb about potential friction due to the pathetic offensive play of the team. Webb deended Cam, Joe and everyone on the offensive side of the ball. He said the Ravens are still one big happy family. Good to hear after Terrell Suggs post game comments last night.
I can’t believe Coach Harbaugh is defending his decision to onside kick. He talked about trying to … Read More »
I will never understand how a team with Super Bowl aspirations could allow an unproven rookie, Tyrod Taylor, to be in the backup position. Sunday against Houston the offensive line allowed #5 to absorb a brutal beating. Flacco is not Superman. if this isn’t straightened out soon all the promise will turn to sorrow if Joe gets hurt. What am I missing here?
