Keep blaming Geno for this crap. Brady in his prime couldn't move the ball behind this sh*t line. Barry Sanders himself couldn't run behind this line.

Pete and his shiny toys. What we needed in the draft was some trench dogs. But no Pete loves his skill players. Flame on.

They used 2 high picks on Tackles a year and a half ago, Damien Lewis was playing well at Guard, and they went out and signed a good starting Center last off season. There's just been way too much shuffling around on the OL due to injuries.

Exactly why we needed to add depth.

This is exactly it exactly. The constantly shuffling line has finally taken its toll. We can't even run.

They did. They drafted Bradford and Oluwatimi for depth.
Like I said we needed dogs, game changers , generational talent. We had the opportunity to get but decided we needed a nickle back instead.

Carter is playing good on a great dline 50% of the snap. He would be gassed out and a bust here

To be fair, our o-line has been doing it's job decently all year. I know there's injuries and such, but this game is a coacktail of the inability (or unwillingness) to adjust to what's happening. I understand having your philosphy and wanting to impose yourself, but if you're getting steamrolled, why in the f*** would you keep sticking to the same script?

The o-line is being dominated.

Geno is getting overwhelmed and making some big mistakes (INT and not making decent reads and not running when it would be better than trying to force a pass, holding the ball, etc.)

Waldron is making questionable calls.


The Ravens were completely ready for us.


And our defense is indeed young and we can't burn that mentally hot for that long before we have a bad game. The Ravens are going to punish some people, and they're a nightmare matchup for us.

You also said they needed to add depth, as if they didn't. They did.

So who was the generation talent on OL they could have gotten, but didn't. Keeping in mind they just spent 2 high picks on Tackles a year and a half ago.

Carter at 5, and then a stud offensive guard or center at 25.

So a rookie Guard or Center would have been the difference between our OL being completely and utterly dominated in this game, or actually playing well? Lol, ok.

What's Carter rated amongst Dlinman? Top 5? top 2?

Also we started two tackles last season worked out fine , also how could it be any worse? 🙄
