1-5 in the division. I don't often say "I was right" but this is one time where I will. Serious serious changes need to be made on the Ravens. You cannot give that kind of showing within the division.

Yes that's part of it. But the poor situational play is what made us miss the playoffs from 8-3

Apparently we're the 14th overall pick now. Trade Marquise Brown and some of those other picks we have to move up into the top 10 and draft one of the best players at his respective position. Then get some more good players. Then come back healthy and reloaded next year.

10,363 snaps and not a playoff win to show for it
D'ernest Johnson may have played himself into a payday after today and the Broncos game.

He's a RFA this year and we are already paying Chubb and Hunt.

Rough year for the AFCN compared to 2020 but congrats to the Bengals, the one team last year that didn't make the playoffs but this year won the division. Rooting for you.

I hope the Raiders-Chargers team ends in a tie to eliminate the Steelers but welp.

Also, Browns, not last place but again a long way to go.

Thing is we only will give one WR consistent targets here and I think Bateman has more upside than Brown. Brown still could be an excellent wideout but I'm sick of his bad hands so send him away somewhere that can use him and make Bateman our main WR.

Can’t believe three teams from the AFCN have made the playoffs: The Tennessee Titans, Cincinnati Bengals, and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

any of the wrs already on the roster should be traded away for draft picks, since they've been developing on the ravens which means they won't be any good. then trade the draft picks for established wrs who have already mostly developed.

The sad part is this isn't even wrong. But we really should only bother with one WR because one WR is all we'll consistently target.

Bateman will be better than Brown. And the Ravens have shown they will only ever target one receiver. So might as well just go with that and make the whole rest of the team better at the expense of WR.

Also I sure am glad the Ravens aren’t gonna pay Lamar and are instead going to roll with offensive juggernaut Huntl- wait what’s that? Two you say? And a fumble?

Ah! Nevertheless

Huntley looked good to start then started doing the same poo poo Lamar has been doing all season. Right now the answer looks like neither. And I'm beginning to think that any player is going to be dragged down going to the Ravens and our nonsensical offensive philosophies.

You gotta start putting that on the coaches.

If Roman isn't fired fire Harbaugh right along with him.

I was never on that train. I was on the Huntley should be given a chance train. And really what Huntley has done the last couple games is no different from how Lamar looked the whole 2nd half of the season.

I never at any point said that Huntley should be the starter over Lamar going forward. But it's possible both are just not the guy. But again look at my previous post. The Ravens drag players down at QB and WR.

I praised Huntley when he was playing well. Just like I praised Lamar when he was playing great early in the season. But I just didn't make excuses for how Lamar was looking in the latter part of the season. And still won't.

I never said Huntley was better than Lamar, just acknowledged that he was able to look good with the exact same personnel that everyone said was impossible to look good with. But as time went on he adopted the exact same poor decision making Lamar did the entire year and became much worse. I put that primarily on the coaches.

We need to see a year of Lamar without Roman as OC to decide whether he is worth paying. I have hope he can rebound with a healthier team and better OC. But changes have to be made.

You said he was at least as good and wouldnt require a massive contract. Sounds like better to me.

Yes, if the choice is between this season's Lamar with a huge contract or Huntley for cheap I'll take Huntley every single time.

But again we need to see another year.
