Only saw playing time in one game when every other ILB got hurt but he racked up something ridiculous like 9 tackles in the quarter he played lol. he's a little slow but drat if he doesn't always know exactly where the play is going

he was also our leading tackler on special teams so all in all pretty choice for a 7th rounder

Sounds about right. Dude has a crazy nose for the ball carrier and reads plays like nuts.

As long as they already run a 3-4, it shouldn't be much of a problem. Especially if Gruden is willing to rein Rex in as needed.

Ryan was great as DC in Baltimore. The 06 Ravens were one of the best defenses in modern history and better than the acclaimed 2000 team. But a lot of that may have been just due to Newsome's giving him a lot to work with. When your defense has Ngata, Suggs, Gregg, Pryce, Lewis, Scott, Thomas, McAlister, and Reed among others it's kind of hard to screw that up.

Ehhh i'd be very hesitant giving Rex even a DC gig, just based on his track record as of late. Since it seems like Wade isn't going back to Denver, the Redskins should be backing up a brinks truck full of cash to his house.

Assistant offensive line coach Todd Washington and Director of Strength&Conditioning Bob Rogucki.

Edit: This is what the Ravens need more of in Baltimore: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlFZ4Scqh4w

Now you see that? That's what Shannon Sharpe brought to this team. That sort of play out of nowhere. You'd never think he would get a 96-yarder like that. But he did. They say it in the video at that point he had five receptions the whole playoffs but three were for 50+ yards. Imagine with a better QB than Dilfer. That's what "Big-play Shay" was meant to refer to. It didn't matter we had a trash offensive line and a bad QB. Sharpe drove them to victory. If we had a better team Steve Smith would have done the same. But now we have no one like that.

Anquan Boldin was our Sharpe in 2012. Remember that play he made for a first down on a key late Ravens drive in the Superbowl? That was a Sharpe-like catch. Maybe even better than Sharpe. One of the best catches I've ever seen watching football. It was a risky play he had the 49ers guy all over him and if he didn't get it you would just say drat that's good coverage. But he was hell bent on pulling that thing down. He also had a touchdown in that game. We never used Boldin right here except for that stretch. But I knew when we traded for him he was our Sharpe. He could be our Sharpe. When people called his production disappointing I stuck with him. I loved him on the Cardinals and knew he could still be our next Sharpe. And as it turns out, he was our Sharpe.

Yeah cause Boldin's 2012 playoff run was actually better than what Sharpe had. And that's what I mean when I say how imagine what Shannon Sharpe would have done with a better QB. Cause Flacco was playing at a high level unlike Dilfer ever did in those old playoffs. So Boldin had a really excellent run. Remember him towering over that Patriots player on one of his touchdowns? That's the kind of thing Sharpe did. That's why he was our Sharpe. But Sharpe was dragging an offense through that never should have been there. That's why Sharpe is more my hero. But Boldin is a close very close second.

Why didn't the Ravens win the Superbowl in 2006? No Sharpe. Closest thing we had was Derrick Mason who was good, but not quite a Sharpe. Like a step or two below a Sharpe. That game against the Colts goes completely the other way if we have a "One Big Play Shay" on our side. That's all we needed, and we couldn't produce it.

That really isn't what I mean though. The offensive unit in 2000 wasn't much good at all, especially the passing game. I guess Jamal Lewis and Priest Holmes(Pre KC but still) is a solid combination. But through the air, woof. That team shouldn't really have made it too far and everyone knew our offense was going to be our undoing, until it wasn't. And Sharpe is the guy who carried it to do better than it even should have. Because even though we were a dog poo poo passing team he was always able to get the team their one TD, their one big play they needed to just let the defense do their thing. So the fatally flawed team didn't die after all.

If we could get the best guys at every position a Sharpe wouldn't be necessary. Sharpe didn't even make the Pro-Bowl in 2000.

What?? I'm just talking about them. I'm not complaining or bashing them. Is it because I said the offense was garbage? That's because it was!! And it was the story all year. We even went five straight games without scoring a single touchdown. It was the story all year. Even when we won the AFC Championship Sharpe went on the mic and said "We're going to tampa to put this Ravens offense on display. We're not that good, but we're effective. We're going to Tampa and Busch Gardens". So the team even flaunted that they were bad on offense. You had Dilfer on talk shows saying how that team won in spite of him as a joke.

I love doing that. I love going back and looking at those teams and looking at their flaws and how they overcame them, and where they could have maybe gone wrong and how those single big plays or turning points made a Superbowl win. That's one of my favorite parts of being a football fan.
