Weekly Press Release: Ravens @ Panthers

PrintThe Baltimore Ravens travel down to North Carolina to play the Carolina Panthers in the third pre-season games for both teams Saturday night at 8 p.m.. Typically the third exhibition game is the one where the starters play the longest stretch of the game prior to the regular season beginning on September 13th, when the Ravens host the Kansas City Chiefs. The fourth exhibition game might give the starters only a series or two, as it is the final chance for those players on the bubble to earn those last few roster spots.
The Ravens have won both their contests so far this pre-season, while the Panthers have lost both their games to New York's Jets and Giants, ironically by the same 24-17 score. However, as we have all discussed here on The Beatdown, the pre-season means nothing in terms of winning or losing, as it is the barometer to see if you are ready for the games that will count in just a couple of weeks and who deserves to be a part of the final roster.

I like what Suggs had to say about Ray Rice
“Oh my God. I don’t want to put that pressure on his shoulders, but he’s kind of got that Barry Sanders’ type of running style. You never know where he’s going to be, and he’s hard to tackle. And when you have a back like that, you can turn a 3-yard gain into a 30- or 40-yard gain.”
That is a lot coming from one of the leagues best Linebackers.
You have to hate losing more than you love winning.
Ray Rice like Barry Sanders???
3-yard gain into a 30? What??? DeAngelo Williams led the league in TDs and 30+ yard runs last year… matter of fact he tied Jim Brown’s NFL record for runs of more than 30 yards.
Ray Rice will be taking notes this week.
on behalf of tha dirty south: soul food, carolina blue, southern hospitality, and tha queen city
Now that I have formally introduced myself
In the back of my head I’m really thinking… “I hope Ray Lewis doesn’t break DeAngelo’s legs this week”.

Playing twice a year against the 16th (Arizona), 17th (New Orleans), and 19th (Tampa Bay) place run defenses may have helped pad his numbers a bit. Also helping out may have been Kansas City (30th), Atlanta (25th), Oakland (31st), Detroit (32nd), Green Bay (26th), and Denver (27th). That’s 75% of the season right there. He only ran against three top-10 run defenses, and totaled 58 yards against two of them.
Water covers 2/3 of the Earth's surface. Ed Reed covers the rest.
you mean twice a year against tampa? they don’t play AZ twice a year ampallang.
what really helps DeAngelo is his O-Line. BUt don’t underestimate him. I’ve followed him since he was at Memphis and I know for a fact that he is a beast.
I don’t like what Suggs said about Rice. When he’s the GM he can start evaluating talent and telling us whos good. Right now, Rice still has a lot to prove and until he goes out there and plays like the best RB in the NFL, any comparison with Barry Sanders is ABSURD.

Relax dude
Suggs is just stating how talented he think Rice is. He really enjoys his running style and it is very rare to have one of your star players come out and state some nice things about a guy who is trying to make a name for himself. You are acting like Suggs did something wrong by saying some nice things.
Its not like he said that Ray Rice is the second coming of Barry Sanders. But since Rice plays against Suggs everyday, you can definitely tell that Suggs has seen insane ball carrying from Ray.
You have to hate losing more than you love winning.
it's cool
im not like fuming over it i just don’t put a lot of stock in it.

You’re right. I got Arizona and Atlanta mixed up. They’re both “A” cities and have birds as mascots; woops. Anyways, that just means that they played the 25th ranked run defense twice last year instead of the 16th, which they played once. That bolsters my argument: it’s convenient to argue how great he was last year when the vast majority of the defenses he played were porous.
Water covers 2/3 of the Earth's surface. Ed Reed covers the rest.
and he had way more weapons on his offense too
but whatever. lets not be bitter about Ryan, Flacco will be just fine

Check out Trevor Pryce's quote...
