Ravens Fall Back To Earth With Thud

With a resounding thud, the high-flying Baltimore Ravens were given a hard slap across the face and returned to the reality of the National Football League's mantra, "on any given Sunday..." After an over-whelming week one 35-7 thrashing of the Pittsburgh Steelers had many Ravens fans thinking about making Super Bowl reservations, the team must have thought the Tennessee Titans would cower in the face of the approaching Ravens. Instead, they re-grouped from their own poor showing in their 16-14 week one loss at the Jacksonville Jaguars and put a 26-13 old-fashioned whooping on the Ravens in front of their hometown fans.

The abysmal performance by Baltimore looked a lot more like the offensively-challenged team of 2010 than the new, re-vamped, dangerous offense that moved the ball with ease in the air and on the ground against the vaunted Steelers defense last week. Against the Titans, the rushing game could only muster 43 yards on the ground by RB Ray Rice and just under 200 passing yards by QB Joe Flacco on a 15 for 32 performance, with two interceptions and an embarrassing 51.2 QB Rating.

Star-divide

With virtually no previous game-time experience last week, left tackle Bryant McKinnie played great in protecting Flacco's blind side against LB James Harrison and the Steelers. Sunday, he seemed slow and got beaten more than a few times. Right tackle Michael Oher was back to his old ways, getting called for two false-start penalties, backing up the offense in critical situations.

On the other side of the ball, the Ravens opportunistic defense that forced a franchise record seven turnovers last week got a single interception and let Titans QB Matt Hasselbeck rip them apart for over 350 passing yards, including 16 completions to his wide receivers versus only five for Baltimore's Flacco. Rolling up well over 400 yards of total offense on the Ravens, it made one wonder what happened last week to both the Ravens as well as the Titans, as neither team looked as good nor as bad in yesterday's game.

Proving that every game in the NFL is a tough one to win, especially on the road, the Ravens will need to re-group and figure out what went wrong real quick, as they remain on the road next week at the St. Louis Rams. The Rams will be coming off a short week due to playing tonight on Monday Night Football at the New York Giants. While that should be construed as an advantage for Baltimore, the Rams will be the home team and play in a dome, where the Ravens are just not as used to as St. Louis obviously is.

Hopefully, this loss will serve as a wake-up call to Baltimore, who now know their fearsome defense is not as intimidating as it appears. If the Titans could pick up Matt Hasselbeck off of the Seattle Seahawks scrap-heap, then young Rams QB Sam Bradford should get all the more respect for what was a great rookie season in 2010. Bradford could easily repeat Hasselbeck's performance unless the Ravens impose more of a pass rush that did not allow them to sack the Tennessee QB even once on Sunday. Regardless of the state of the Ravens injuries in their secondary, the lack of a pass rush won't change anything even if Baltimore cornerbacks were all healthy.

Even safety Ed Reed was soundly beaten due to all the time Hasselbeck had to find an open receiver. Cornerback Lardarius Webb is a solid tackler against the run, but is frequently targeted by opposing quarterbacks in pass coverage. Domonique Foxworth always seems to be at least a step behind his man and even Cary Williams had a tough time marking Titans best WR Kenny Britt. It wouldn't have mattered if rookie Jimmy Smith was healthy, much less veteran Chris Carr, because when any NFL QB has that much time to go through all of his reads, someone is going to be open, as the Titans receivers were all day long.

A full week of practice after a couple days of rest could make all the difference in the world to the Ravens and they could easily go into St. Louis and put a week one type of beatdown on the Rams. On the other hand, right now there is no reason to guarantee that they will not put out another dud of a performance like they did this week in Tennessee. Consistency, or the lack thereof, is the difference between a Super Bowl contender or Super Bowl pretender. After two weeks of the 2011 NFL regular season, which one of these two the Baltimore Ravens are currently remains unclear.

What happened to the pass rush?

I don’t know too much about football, but Hasselbeck had way more time that Flacco ever did! Are the Titans known for great defense against the pass rush, or did we just not play up to par?

Also, it seemed like every times the Titans’ rb was given a touch, he would easily gain like 5 yards, just bumping and rolling off defender tackles.

by rsty on Sep 19, 2011 10:18 AM EDT reply actions  

nope not at all

Our O-line has been good at pass blocking and that did us well.

Our run blocking still sucks though, ironic, isn’t it??

WR Britt and TE Cook got the best of Ed Reed though

by Ice0ne (CAJ) on Sep 19, 2011 10:32 AM EDT up reply actions  

Your line deserves credit, but I think the protection for Hasselbeck was a function of their play calling.

The Titans new that we only had four corners active, that one of them is still recovering from an ACL injury and another was a practice squad player. The Titans exploited that weakness… plain and simple. They used 4-5 WR sets knowing that the Ravens simply didn’t have the personel to cover them.

That’s obviously the smart thing to do, because if they were forced to play against the Ravens front seven, they would have lost for sure. They were able to exploit the defense because of the lack of depth and talent in the secondary.

Saying that Britt and Cook got the best of Reed is a bit cocky. Reed was running around trying desperately to cover all the wide open holes in the secondary. Them ‘getting the best’ of Reed says more about the Ravens lack of depth than the talent of Britt or Cook.

i know

i actually commened him on his effort.
but its just something that wouldn’t have happened of Fisher was here.
he had Kenny Britt as the 3rd WR and Cook as the 2nd or 3rd TE.

Its just a personal victory that he is gone

You gotta admit this a good catch for a TE

That was an amazing catch. As I said immediately after, you can’t defend that.

by BAL_Hawk on Sep 19, 2011 11:06 AM EDT up reply actions  

by pass blocking, you mean physically blocking the pass from the qb?

That’s not the same as pass rush, is it?
Again, I’m trying to figure this game out, but as I understand it – and please correct me where I’m wrong – pass rushers are people who sack the opp. qb/pressures him. As I saw it, Hasselbeck didn’t seem to be under that much pressure (compared to flacco).

As far as pass-blocking is concerned, maybe I didn’t notice much. CBS wasn’t playing the ravens game on cable – montreal regional cbs had the new york game i think – so the feed that we had wasn’t at all HD.

by rsty on Sep 19, 2011 11:23 AM EDT up reply actions  

Pagano basically called a game of Mattison ball. Because two of our better quarterbacks were injured and Hasselback generally gets the ball out very quickly after the snap, Pagano typically dropped more defenders into coverage to help our secondary rather than send more defenders after the quarterback. With no cornerbacks but Williams able to play decent press coverage (jamming the receiver at the line rather than starting the play several yards back), the scheme makes sense. Still, it’s frustrating to see the other team’s quarterback have as long as he needs in the pocket to pick us apart while our own quarterback was running for his life all day.

by "Because two of our better quarterbacks were injured ", did you mean “cornerbacks”?

In that case, I see what you’re saying – sacrificing some pass rush for secondary coverage?

Still, their defensive line was all over flacco, so much different than against pittsburgh…Ice0ne though was saying that our pass blocking was good, I’m not sure if I agree I guess.

Yes.

Exactly. Doing this exact same thing is why our last defensive coordinator received a lot of flack last year. I’m honestly not sure there was a better alternative against the Titans, though. We could have sent more blitzers, but the West Coast offense’s short, timing patterns a very effective counter to that.

Ice0ne though was saying that our pass blocking was good, I’m not sure if I agree I guess.

Good eye. He was talking about the Titans’ pass blocking, which definitely got the job done. The Ravens’ pass blocking, on the other hand, was very poor. LeVoir (who replaced Grubbs at left guard on Sunday) played poorly, which weakened the interior line as a whole. I don’t know if I’d say that Tennessee’s defensive line is better than Pittsburgh’s just yet, but the line we faced in game two played much better as a unit than the one we faced in week one, which further helps explain the difference in performance from game one to game two.

Johnson didn't look too good through the first 3 quarters,

although I admit that I mostly stopped watching as the Titans ran out the clock in the 4th. Javon Ringer scored their TD and was gashing us up pretty good.

As far as the RBs are concerned,

we shut down the run game for a while, especially CJ (who isn’t in game shape yet, I don’t think). But the D was on the field for 34 minutes, and eventually they got sloppy and began missing tackles.

But for some reason our O-line can’t run block very well, but they can pass block.
they can’t get any push, but they can protect….

We had the 32nd ranked run blocking o-line and cj was still 4th in rush yards last year

I think it’s a bit ridiculous to call out the offensive line in this game when Flacco was clearly holding the ball all game.

Whether that was the receivers not getting open or Flacco not seeing the holes in the zone is the real question and problem.

by BAL_Hawk on Sep 19, 2011 10:32 AM EDT reply actions  

Flacco found the holes when there were some. I remember a couple nice passes to Boldin in the deep middle, and one to Lee on the right side. This only happened when the Titans played zone.

When they planned man coverage, there was no separation. Flacco only could throw up jump balls(which he did a few times) and got burnt.

What was the deal with LeVoir starting over Gurode? Granted Gurode may not have the playbook down solid, but there’s a reason he’s gone to the Pro Bowl, just like there’s a reason LeVoir was sjgned for the veteran minimum.

They apparently felt that Gurode wasn’t ready. Maybe it was a bad descision. It certainly would be the only bad descision from yesterday.

I think it was also a mistake not activating Chykie Brown. I don’t care how ignorant he was of the playbook. The Ravens needed corners BADLY yesterday. They simply could not cover 4-5WR sets. Once the Titans figured that out and stopped trying to play real football, the game was over.

by BAL_Hawk on Sep 19, 2011 10:43 AM EDT up reply actions  

agreed they were just playing pitch and catch all day. No matter how many guys we sent Hasselbeck just did a 3 step dropped and released to open WR’s all day. No pressure would have helped with that when we clearly could not cover the spread. I’m thankful we have an early bye this year so we can get healthy. We will be fine, but it’s just a matter of getting healthy and learning from this. We just got whooped and hopefully that lights a fire under our belly’s.

Pagano had too many LBs in the game when they were spreading us out. On those quick screens and passes we should have had a corner / safety playing press coverage. Those dump offs killed us.

Most of this stuff on D is correctable at least. I’m more worried about our WRs.

Where the eff is Torrey Smith?! Put Doss in the line up if Torrey can’t get separation.

I would like to see Doss as well. I feel he out performed all our young WR’s and he’s not even active. I would really like to see him get a chance. He doesn’t have Torrey’s speed, but for right now he’s better in about every other area.

Finally I'm logged back in to straighten this mess out

Were Tyrod Taylor’s legs broke yesterday. Did anyone see how Vick controlled the game last night with his ability to move in and out of the pocket. Joe is too slow to contend with pressure and our coaching staff just wants another Cal Ripken on the field. Last week he had protection against an older and slower team and the same with our receivers. Joe doesn’t have the ability to create a play, he’s like a pre-programmed robot. You saw that last year in the first game against the Bengals, and they would not pull him for Bulger. Well a Bulger put it to our asses yesterday.

Just like in week two last year

When Joe can’t perform bring in some fresh blood who can make something happen. When Frank Walker couldn’t produce he got pulled, why not Joe. The defense can’t win every game. Joe has to be able to adapt, but his growth chart shows he is still in his first year. I guess he forgot to put his depends on because he sure shit his pants this game.

Don't know exactly what you're talking about.

Yesterday, Joe had what I thought was one of his best days moving around the pocket avoiding pressure. Numerous times he extended plays that I don’t think the younger, lighter Joe would have. He still needs to improve, obviously, but there were people in the game thread comparing him to BB (an unjust comparison, BB is much harder to bring down than Joe).

While he didn’t complete many passes, I find it hard to believe that Tyrod Taylor would have played any better with a sieve at LG.

Good to get the stinker out now than in week 14. Tennessee looks like a good squad.

We lost to an alright team yesterday, wouldn’t be surprised to see them give Houston a run at that very weak division.

For what it's worth, here's my perspective on things:

The entire AFCN is 1-1, so we lost no ground in our division with this loss and actually still stand strong with that W over Pitt. There are plenty of 1-1 teams that are just about sure fire playoff contenders: Falcons, Bears, Saints, Chargers, Steelers and even the “Dream Team”. Like others on here have said, it’s good that we can get this out of the way and maybe it even takes some pressure off of the Ravens to get this mental lapse over with. Our schedule is still favorable. I hated the idea of an early bye week before the season started, but actually now with all of our injuries and depth concerns especially at CB, I think the bye week will be great to have early….especially after what should be a physical matchup with NY. Good game Titans, and thanks (maybe) for the reality check.

I hate the “getting a bad game out of the way” talk. That’s for losers. You have to beat teams like the Titans if you want to get home field in the playoffs. That has been one of the factors that kept us out of the playoffs the past 3 years and I’m tired of it. Professionals and champions shouldn’t have mental lapses and let down games.

Yea, it sucks, but we lost the game. That’s the reality and we have to deal with it. Sure, we should have beaten Tenn. easily, but we came out flat and never found a groove. No team is perfect, and by no means is any Super Bowl team perfect. Last year is a great example with the way GB played. They had 15 guys on IR and made it work. Everyone can speculate on why we lost and get all worked up, but let’s hope this is a learning experience for the team and they work shit out for this week. It’s a long season, so why get all caught up in one game. It’s just one game like the W over Pitt. was one game. On to St. Louis.

Coaches and some players have failed in clutch situations and it has resulted in us losing games in which we had 4th quarter leads, not winning the division, and not playing at home in the playoffs. Losing to the Titans is just another example of this. We need to beat out Pitt in the North for once and play at home in January. I’m tired of early playoff exits and losing to teams we should beat.

Just venting

The more I thought about the game yesterday, two things stuck out that give me a concern going forward. I would appreciate some constructive feedback as I know I tend to be overly critical after a disappointing loss.
Vanilla vs. Twist with sprinkles: The game plan on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball seemed to be a simple serving of plain vanilla.
On offense it was run first and even in passing there were very few shots taken down the field. Tennessee loaded up on the run and the game plan was shot. It is impossible watching on TV to see what routes the receivers were running, or even the depth. Therefore it is hard to discern if Flacco was seeing one-on-one but not taking his shots; he was not reading coverages properly; or the receivers were just not getting any separation? What is clear is we need a more diverse game plan that adjusts as the game progresses based upon what the defense is taking away.
On defense, everything seemed to be based on stopping the run. Tennessee adjusted and became pass happy (42 passes to 29 runs). Our defense never seemed to adjust to bring more pressure on Hassleback. Again, a very vanilla approach.
Where are the twists? Maybe even few sprinkles? Or did we spend all off season game planning for one game only?
Speed Kills: Speaking of looking old and slow – that description could just as easily been applied to the Ravens yesterday.
Offense: Lethargic is too kind a word for the Offense, and I’m just talking about getting in and out of the huddle. In the 4th quarter. Down by two scores. I thought Joe has taken a valium. Where are the wide receivers in this offense? Why put Torrey Smith in the game if you never even pretend you’re going to throw him the ball?
Defense: Linebacker speed in pass support has become a huge liability against west coast offenses. I noticed the only LB to make a play in the passing game was when Suggs dropped into coverage to swat down a quick slant pass. But without Suggs, there is no speed rushing the QB. Where are Kindle and McPhee and Kruger in the game plan?
It doesn’t help to upgrade team speed and then play in slow motion.

I saw that you said you're a vet, thanks for your service....I've actually had the chance to work with and help many vets so I'll try to be civil, having said that....

The Titans are far and away a better football team than the Seahawks. Let’s break it down:
QB: Titans>Seahawks. Hasselbeck is a very good, solid, albeit underrated veteran QB. Jackson is and always was destined to be a backup QB. I’m still not sure why Seattle through all of that money at him….it was a waste.
RB: Titans>Seahawks. CJ is a top two or three RB in the leaugue. He deserved the attention our defense gave him yesterday. While Lynch is pretty good, which he showed in last years playoffs, he’s no where near the same threat CJ is.
WR: Titans>Seahawks. Britt is ascending the ranks of elite WRs. He’s underrated because he’s on the Titans, but with back to back 100+ yd. games you’ll soon be seeing his name alongside the likes of Andre Johnson and others.
DBs: Titans>Seahawks. Finnegan is a shutdown CB. He’s also underrated because he’s on the Titans, but he can match up one on one on any WR. Although his tactics and attitude may be questionable, you can’t deny his ability to shut down tip tier WRs.
The list goes on and on, but my point is clear. Titans are much better than the Seahawks. The Seahawks squeaked into the playoffs last year with a losing record. I would have expected the Pitt O to destroy the Seahawks, but they didn’t. While Ben R. had a solid game with 280 yds. and 1 TD, those are really underwhelming numbers for going against the WORST team in football. Pitt should have won by at least 31 at home.
