The Ravens Offense in 2009 may not have had big potential talent as The Ravens offense has now but it had something more valuable and that is chemistry. The Ravens offense today lacks chemistry and it seems that this is the reason why it’s not good consistently; The Ravens offense today may have great talented players but if the chemistry is not there then you not going to get much production, which leads to good play calling looking like bad play calling.
The Ravens offense overall have the talents to reach to the super bowl but such goals can only be met if the offense can gain that consistent chemistry for sixty minutes of football; If The Ravens offense gain consistent chemistry then this leads to more of the defenses getting a break and staying consistent with making big plays. I have faith that this team can get this accomplish because it has shown spark in previous games but the question is when?
Ravens Fans let’s hope that this chemistry manifest for this up incoming playoff game against The Kansas City Chiefs and also have faith that we will.
Goooooo Ravens

That chemistry is worth
2.2 points per game
29 yards per game
Somehow despite our offensive additions, we’ve actually produced less than last year.
I like Turtles!
People are blowing the ranking way out of proportion. If it were a huge difference in stats, I would be worried. But like you said above, there is barely any difference and the stats are so close.
I will also attribute a drop off to the defense not being able to get off the field this year. We may have a higher rank than last year had we not given up 95+ yard drives multiple times against teams like Houston.
I don’t read into it too much.
"My youngest brothers think I'm a dorky older brother, I can't tell jokes because, 'I'm not funny.' They're much more street smart than I am. They can say whatever they want, cause 'they're funny.' I do pick on them. I try to be funny, but they don't laugh. Even if I am funny, nothing I say is funny to them because I'm just the older brother who's not that cool." - Joe Flacco
I dont look at stats that much either but 2009 offense just seem like it had so much
chemistry then the one we have now. The Defense this year has been good the stats may not be high like it was last year but that had to do with the fact of the offense having lack of chemistry that was consistent
2009 defense had Jared Gaither, a Michael Oher in his ideal position, Yanda at RG, Grubbs performing well at LG and a year younger version of Birk.
Unfortunately everything starts in the trenches and the 1 part of the offense no one was worried about at the end of last season ended up being our Achilles.
2.2 points per game
is a bigger difference than it appears. If we had 2.2 more points in the Patriots game, we win that game in Foxborough and we have a #1 or #2 seed and a bye.
They say the empty can rattles the most...
Yea but we didn’t and now we have to work with what we got.

It will be truly sad when he has the entire O-Line kneel down so Flacco can fire over their heads…

last year, 9-7
this year, 12-4
i’d say case closed, but it goes deeper. what about when our offense has struggled? against the bills, the O came up big in the 2nd half and pulled out the win. against the saints, the O put up 30 pts. against the falcons, the O put up the go-ahead TD with a min left. they do enough to win. it’s not always pretty when it doesn’t need to be, but it got the job done 75% of the time.
i’m with you that i’d love to see them start clicking on all cylinders and blowing some teams out, but the important thing is that they score when they need to score and win the game, defensive letdowns in atlanta and new england notwithstanding.
two of the losses can be pinned mainly on the O (bengals and steelers) and two mainly on the D (pats and falcons). sure, there’s blame to spread around, but overall, the O put us in position to go 14-2 this year. i’ll take it.
we had some luck to get to 12-4 as well.
1. Bills fumbled to end game and would have gone the length of the field.
2. Brees throws pick after coming back.
3. Texans throw pick after coming back.
4. Palmer fumbles and geeks on last play.
We aren’t pulling away most of the time. I just hope we rotate well on D so we aren’t embarassingly gased in the 4th Again.
To be fair about number 2, Brees wasn’t really able to move the ball at all even discounting that pick. The Saints game was one of the few where we were pretty much in control the entire game.
