Josh Downs is a baller.

It’s also looking like we found our future center. This might be Ryan’s last year.

It says very mild. From what I understand if it’s in the mild side he could still play next week. 

People tend to panic when a player gets an injury ever since Andrew, I get it and I am not a doctor but Taylor like AR both said they could have came back in if need be. Had it been the playoffs, they would have been in is my guess.

You are on a negativity roll tonight.  Just check out how many negative posts you write directly at other posters...to other people...just the last few pages even...but get all bothered over neutral posts about an impersonal entity like a team.   Its like you think me and @Moosejawcolt and some others are supposed to care about your opinion or something.

 

I have said before, just this season, 

  • Josh Downs looks very good, but I haven't said that much because he hasn't played much. 
  • JT has looked good, when he was playing.
  • I liked it when JT bounced it outside last game.  I think it may have been the first time I saw him where he was closer to a sideline than a hashmark.  That was great.  
  • AR looked good, when he was playing.  
  • Steichen is a good coach and a great play caller, and uses JT wonderfully. 
  • Gus is probably one of the best D coordinators in the NFL.  Just look at what he can do when the D is missing 2 of its highest paid stars.  I assume most folks here think Defo and Moore matter?
  • I've liked Cross since the day he was drafted.
  • I thought it was fine to not add secondary players during the offseason.

Lots of positive stuff.

Agree.

And the sacks and drives that stalled. The fact JT couldn't get going because the threat of AR was gone. Those things matter

The same drives that stall when AR can’t complete a pass. Also JT is going to be JT no matter what. Way before we had AR, JT lead the league in rushing. His success is not going to be dependent on who is playing QB. JT slowed down because he banged his foot/ankle up.

I see some are still drunk from the game.

No it’s facts. He had the lowest completion percentage in the league at 48% before the game started. He also leads the league in interceptions thrown by a QB with 6.

 

Flacco was accurate and didn’t turn the ball over. I get the “Anthony is still a developing rookie” ordeal but to deny the fact that he hasn’t played good is just silly. I’m not calling him a bust, but to me Flacco should start. Why would you not keep starting the better player? It’s also better for Richardson long term if Flacco starts. 
 

Ballard is fooling people with this notion that the only way to play is to get better. Tell that to Jordan Love.

No actually. That happened near the end of the game. The run game hit a wall for the majority of the game til JT finally hit two big runs

JT best  year was in 21. Who was the QB? Wentz had legs and was always a threat to run plus his arm had to be respected. When the defense has to guess who has the ball on run plays it’s going to open things up for Taylor.

i wish ballard would have paid moss

 

I could be wrong, but I think I remember it being reported when free-agency began that the Colts had actually offered Moss more money than his current team, but Moss wanted to be a starter.

Wentz was not the athlete at QB the AR was. If Wentz beat you with his legs that was something the defense would allow because he’s getting you 10 yards at best. Tbh most QBs in the NFL can do that. Mayfield, Burrow, Goff, etc… I don’t think the threat of Carson Wentz running for 10 yards made life easier for JT. As long as the QB can pass the ball, JT will get his yards. You forget he had 1,000+ with Rivers too who was a statue. And that was with him not even being the starter untill Mack was out for the season.

 

I’m not denying that having AR back there changes the way the defenses might play slightly, but I don’t think it’s make or break. Saying otherwise is disrespectful to JT and the OL that has been killing it this year. I also don’t remember anyone ever saying “Man 1800 yards is crazy! He’d have even more if he had a dual threat QB”. JT is a special player.

      Loved it, and he was trucking!   I used to be ...fairly...fast back in the day (at least that's the way I remember it).  But when 300lb guys can run a 40 faster than I did, it's pretty clear to me why I didn't play in college, lol.

      Do you see any progress with Richardson?

      By chad72 · Posted

      He is a bit too tall and doesn't get down naturally fast enough. It was the same issue with Austin Collie as a tall WR, while Reggie Wayne and Marvin Harrison were shorter and got down faster. Mahomes does, Lamar Jackson doesn't but Lamar is faster and more elusive to change contact points. Cam Newton is who AR compares too and Cam took a lot of head shots too because he wanted to weaponize his running which he did but you can do that only so much and won't last a decade at a high level doing that without passing proficiency and using your elusiveness more to evade rushers in the pocket than to take off and run, IMO.   It was the case with Andrew Luck too. For all the smarts, he had too much bravado for his own good at times taking unnecessary hits while trying to prolong plays, like Big Ben.
