I guess we'll find out how good this defense is against a good QB this week vs Stafford

On a short week? Im sure things will go greeeeeaaaat
To be fair, it's not completely his fault. I don't see any wide out looking decent in this offense

I must say i saw Tim Williams get several pass rush opportunities and he looked more stiff than ZDS. He couldnt get off the RT. One play it looked like he could have bent the edge but bailed. Didnt see Bowser play much either.
Now. What i did see were 2nd year player get plenty of snaps and play well from Judon, Henry, and Peanut. This makes me think that Twill and Bowser will be much improved come year 2. They'll be more in tune with the scheme. Play faster. I feel like Twill is guessing too much

After games with several blown coverages they usually fix them the following week. Also think Jimmy and Carr took tonight personal. Wont have a big reciever vs detriot so jimmy might exact hus revenge on Jones lol

Maybe but in last few games he's nowhere to be seen. What little passes we make is caught by other guys.
The ultimate goal for any team is to win the Super Bowl, anything less doesn't really matter. This is NOT a Super Bowl winning team in any way, shape or form.
There's definitely some positives for Baltimore (Deandre Hopkins will not be a Detroit Lion next week, gimpy Stafford, leaky D aside from Slay), but Detroit has had off since Thursday and Baltimore just played. Even if all things are considered equal (which would probably be considered generous for the Ravens), the extra 4 days of rest/planning given to the Lions makes the game extremely difficult for Baltimore.

One thing is for sure - we play the ugliest football in the world.

Sadly, there is a stat that is holding true so far in 2017. Teams who play the Texans, lose the very next week.
Week 1: Jags vs Texans
Week 2: Texans vs Bengals. Jags lose to Titans
Week 3: Texans vs Patriots. Bengals lose to Packers
Week 4: Texans vs Titans. Patriots lose to Panthers
Week 5: Texans vs Chiefs. Titans lose to Dolphins
Week 6: Texans vs Browns. Chiefs lose to Steelers.
Week 7: Texans on BYE. Browns lose to Titans.
Week 8: Texans vs Seahawks.
Week 9: Texans vs Colts. Seahawks lose to Redskins
Week 10: Texans vs Rams. Colts lose to Steelers.
Week 11: Texans vs Cardinals. Rams lose to Vikings
Week 12: Texans vs Ravens. Cardinals broke the streak by upsetting the Jaguars.
Week 13: Will we lose to the Lions after facing the Texans or will we win?

If we had any type of passing attck, we'd be a bigger threat, and I'd be more confident going forward.
The defense can keep us in games and even win them. The backs are running hard particularly Alex Collins. Buck had a big team effort play for that TD.
If only we could get the ball moving through the air.

Wait! So, you guys also believe in that theory that....if the Ravens can just make it to the playoffs; there is this magical switch that Flacco NEVER seems to turn on during the regular season, but he waits and hopes he can survive a 16 game season in order to make it to the playoffs because once he's in the playoffs.....BAM! He'll flip that mystical switch and automatically become..."January Jooooooe?"

Hopefully this game and the Packers game is a sign that the D is finally coming together.
I will say though the lack of pass rush is concerning. Our guys aren't winning the 1 on 1 battles and the Texans picked up our blitz packages pretty easily.

No. I'm sick of seeing you argue with people about this. Joe doesn't magically say "hey I'm gonna play good now" when he gets to the playoffs. In the past Joe just becomes a different animal in the playoffs. Its that simple. Its an internal "switch", he doesn't have the ability to turn it on and off, it just happens. He plays better. I'm not saying he will do it this year like in years past. Joe looks too far gone to me. I'm just arguing for the posters you quoted.So, you guys believe in that if the Ravens can just make it to the playoffs, that there is this magical switch that Flacco NEVER seems to turn on during the regular season, but he waits and hopes he can survive a 16 game season in order to make it to the playoffs and then once he's there....BAM!

Start with the ugly.

That is some grade school stuff right there.
