That's what I'm talking about!
Flacco has been not afraid to go deep. What a great pass. A rookie? I think not!
Good to see Mason on the sidelines and not heading into the locker room.
Rexx
That was
one of the most beautiful plays I have seen by the Ravens. The protection was amazing on that play, the throw by Flacco, and the route by Figurs. Breathtaking….
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
Thats what I'm talking about
Figurs explosiveness is coming back. When Yamon is on his game he’s one of the few guys in the NFL who give the impression they were shot out of cannon every time they touch the ball. If he’s healthy he could be big for us in the second half of the season.
Haloti!!!!!!

Shaun Rogers my Ass
I’ll say it again, no contest on who I’d take, Ngata or Rogers, regardless of what those clowns at Cleveland’s blog think
Guess rice may not have a breakout game this time around… the way hes lookin right now
Life is nothing but Beats & Rhymes
I thought it was a bad spot
but I wouldn’t waste a Challenge on it at this point. If we lose it, I’m questioning Harbaugh’s logic.
Rexx
question ahead

I've said it before
and I’ll say it again: Ed Reed has been lately providing deep coverage help ALL season!
Rexx
Great punt
as good as any punter in the league this year. Used to play LB in high school and college.
Rexx
Sam
is fucking money.

OMG @ whoever is incharge of the thing on the NFL site
Why did it just say WE punted… and WE returned the punt. Whoever is in charge of teh gamecast on NFL.com needs to get it together

oh i see what happened…

Heap catches
but always get undercut for a tackle. If he kept his head up he could jump over the tackler and get more YAC!
Rexx
Is it me????
Or does the HEEEAAAAAPPPPP!!! chant occurs no matter what stadium the Ravens play in…
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
ive noticed that too

Ravens fans must travel well
I was in Miami and the fans were loud and proud and yelling Heap’s name!
Rexx
what happened to the ray rice that was averaging like 7.5 yards a carry?
Life is nothing but Beats & Rhymes
Holy Shit
The uprights looked like a mile and a half away…
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
Wow, what a great kick
I held my breath! I’ve been saying you got to be able to make a 50+ FG in the NFL. The rookie from NC State, whoever he is, made it. Move over Matt!!!
Rexx
I wouldn't be saying that just yet....
Old man Matt is still money short…and that Superbowl season was won on his leg as much as it was on the rest of the team

that was back in 2001!
Stover was a great kicker and the operative word is “was.” Sorry, time to go into the Ring of Honor and hang em up, Matt. Need someone who can hit the long ones and put the kickoffs into the end zone. Can’t carry two kickers on roster. Buh-bye!
Rexx
every time… smh

How old is Haushka?
Looks like he’s 13 years old.
Darn, Texans hit a long one as well. Defense was too soft on the two minute drill. Still up but a TD puts them right back in the lead.
Rexx
we always soften up within two minutes…
Now we need atleast another FG to keep them out of range
Life is nothing but Beats & Rhymes
by Matchz Malone on Nov 9, 2008 2:31 PM EST up reply actions
That was some really shitty clock management
by the Texans. After that first completion, they just wasted like 15 or 20 seconds instead of using one of their three time outs. It seemed like they settled for just a field goal as soon as they got the ball rather than try and get it into the end zone.

Yeah, but...
…they’re right back in it, although we dominated the first half. Too many penalties took away a couple of other scoring ops for us. We need to tighten the run defense and get a key turnover. On offense we need to get the run game unleashed. Flacco is passing well, but we need more run success.
Defensively, we need to stop the under passes. Johnson hasn’t burned us so far but Reed has to provide better deep help.
Go Ravens, let’s take control in the 2nd half as we have done the past three weeks.
Rexx
104 comments already?
im impressed boys
how come we have a 14 year old boy kicking 54 yard field goals?
gotta love it
so confused
it said he had a 13 yard run for a 1st down earlier, and then they changed it to a 8yd run. Wish i was actually watching this game. The gamecast is confusing me

Forget the FG comment
Now I want a TD!!!
Call me greedy, I don’t care. Gotta run it. Nothing fancy.
Rexx
There it is
Thank you Ravens, for listening to me. Impressive start to 2nd half. Now let’s keep it up by getting a 3 and out or better yet, a TO!
Rexx
where the heck is stover?
I think stover just got fired mid-season. LOL
Life is nothing but Beats & Rhymes
i mean "really tried"
not that 2 yard thing he just did

We are looking pretty even in picks…
If all holds to form you have NO and New England
I have TEN and Jacksonville (Good call there, you picked the Lions, really?) in the early games.
Play it conservative on 4rd down
Nothing that might give the ball back or take us out of FG range.
Rexx
idc what yall say, rice isnt lookin like the rice from cleveland… I was really rootin for him too
Life is nothing but Beats & Rhymes
he has 17 yards on 7 carries :-/

That almost caused me to lose my lunch
Stover? Way off. Put the kid in to do that. See you Matt.
Rexx
Well Matt
just showed the new kid how its done….
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
they def put the new kid in to test him
Matt knows he just lost his spot.

Harbaugh
Stop with kissing up to Stover! Time to cut ties with him. That should teach you. We had a chance to put us up by two TD’s and blew it. You blew it, coach, by making a poor decision onot going with the hot foot. Bad call, John!
Rexx
It was a great fake
and I’m not saying he sucks, but Reed lloks slow and even a bit lost and certainly out of place ALL game long.
Rexx
We're keeping them in the game.
That missed FG could come back to haunt us. We need a time consuming drive now. Anyone know how many yards Sage has?
Rexx
Hopefully we never play Denver
They only pass. I bet cutler could have 500yds vs us. We’d still win though
Need points here.
Even a FG would put us up by two scores. We need one and if Stover is put in to kick anything over 30 yards, I’m going thru the TV and grab Harbaugh’s neck!
Rexx
Mason is a warrior
The wily vet showing the skills
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
im not actually "Watching the game"
these passes to clayton, whose fault are they that they arent being completed?
Life is nothing but Beats & Rhymes
It won't show up in his stats
Put Flacco has challenged the Houston DB’s all game. Multiple penalties hes drawn
Okay
nice 2nd degree assault by the secondary to set up the Todd Heap TD
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
Todd Heap!
Wow, he made a great block, fell down and still got up. Flacco patiently waited and this was a great play.
Rexx
Cam is having Flacco spread the ball around
Figurs, Clayton and Heap have all been involved today. Nice
yea, that early mason injury might have been just what we needed at the time
forced us to look at some other guys, and we found out it worked, so keep doin it
Two point conversion!
Made it look easy. Great answer to their TD. Now up by two TD’s that should do it, unless…
Rexx
Our D should continue to be great for years....
When C-Mac, Ray, Price and others may wind down the next few years…. How many teams have two All Pros to take over the D in Suggs and Ngata. What a dominate duo for the future.
way to jynx it. lol

we call a timeout...
then we start passing??? do they not realize we are trying to burn out the clock?
Life is nothing but Beats & Rhymes
if we win our home games
we’ll be good.

Seriously....
Ray is just showing his age…
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
If we split the next two games...
we’ll be 7-4 and might be on our way to a 11-5 record. Hopefully, the Eagles and Giants will beat the shit out of each other, and we’ll pick up the pieces the next towoweeks!
Rexx
SMITH TO HEAP!!!!
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
Who stole Todd Heap's uniform?
Pouring it in. Troy Smith gets a TD pass. See Troy, you still have it!
Rexx
34 points this week
37 last, averaging over 40 points the past four games. Not bad for a “Terrible” offense, eh boys!?
Rexx
Awww....
This is just getting sad to watch…
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
I'm loving our team this year
What a beautiful thing to have a complete team. For years I was jealous of teams with franchise QB’s. Not any more. We finally got an O to go with our all world D. Stick around for a few more years Ray. I see another ring in your future. Like Harbaugh said…. Were trying to build a dynasty here….
This is better than
1) a bye
2) Playing Oakland, St Louis, Detroit
Not as good as coming from behind in that Cleveland game
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
gotta love McGahee still.
all the shit he has been through, seeing 2 other running backs perform very well in his absence, and he still has the heart to come out here and put 112 up and 2 tds. thats why we got him for 7 years.
Thats four in a row boys
I don’t know about every one else but I’m pumped. Keeping the pressure on Pitt.
Oh well, I had half of my prediction right
I had the Texans with 13 points, but the Ravens screwed my prediction up by going over the 27 I had!
Rexx
Final Stats
Flacco 15-23, 185 yards 2 TD’s
McGahee 25 for 112 2 TD’s
Heap 5 for 58 2 TDs
Defense 2 sacks, 4 interceptions
DOMINATION!!!
Rexx
Thanks to all who posted
Great job, guys. Now relax and root for Indy. See you all tomorrow am.
YEAH RAVENS!!!
Rexx
I...I...just can't
ever root for Indy. I hate the Steelers but I respect them. As for Indy, I cannot ever imagine wishing anything but ill will to that team and that city.

Yeah, but
it’s easier to respect the Steelers when they have the same record as us…. so nice job Indy. But you are officially back on the shit list.
Kevbo: [to George Sherrill] George, you look a lot like Vin Diesel...
Flatbill: Let's get somethin' straight... Vin Diesel looks like me.
-From "The Making of Orioles Magic"
Damn it..I missed the open thread!
my sometimes better half was cut and pasting halloween pics on the computer all day…i had to let it go and keep the peace since i’ll be watching 7 straight hours of football after the Ravens game. sorry i missed you all.
