Re: Week 2: Baltimore Ravens @ Tennessee Titans
I really wish we had kept either McClain or McGahee and become a run-heavy offense using both Rice and McClain or McGahee to share the load. Though I know McGahee cost too much and McClain wanted to be starter - though if he was closer to a split share with Rice getting some touches in the passing game to keep him a weapon - could have worked? A lot of years, Rice has been our best receiving option in terms of receptions. Do you think we should work him downfield some and use Williams in the backfield on some sets? That would seem to throw some confusion to the defense. Rice is out as a WR, but Williams can run so it's not always obvious that it's a pass. Could be a draw, etc. Just seems like we need something on offense to mix up the defenses. I hope Torrey Smith can develop. That would only help.
I think using our good LBs to blitz more is a good plan. Like you said, if we can't cover anyone by playing coverage-oriented pass defense, why not blitz and maybe get the enemy O-Line to miss an assignment and get hits/pressure/sacks on the QB? Wasn't our defense always predicated on attacking and blitzing anyway? Overloads, "amoeba" defenses, 3-4 blitz combos, etc?

Re: Week 2: Baltimore Ravens @ Tennessee Titans
I don't think we need to get tricky with Rice either. He's a great option out of the backfield but I don't see him as a great route runner or big target. He catches short passes and makes the best out of them. They could use him in more screens, but don't need him lined up outside to do that. Cam just needs to call a better game. Who knows, the pressure getting through with Grubbs down may have screwed up the gameplan this week. It'd be a sorry excuse but a possible one. We have weapons though. Two former probowl WRs and two great pass catching TEs, and another 2 or 3 young WRs for certain situations. We shouldn't need to put Rice out there, we should find out why all those guys can't get open.

Re: Week 2: Baltimore Ravens @ Tennessee Titans
Pass defense again was not exactly stellar, but then again wasn't that bad either. Some key tipped passes and a pick by Suggs. The defense had some great stops. But when your D is on the field for too long because your offense can't control the ball for long enough, they're going to start to wear down. It happened several times last year and it looks like we're heading for much the same thing this year. |

Re: Week 2: Baltimore Ravens @ Tennessee Titans
We can agree to disagree. I don't think we were watching the same game. I also know you've had these complaints about Flacco in the past so I feel like you're just looking for things to blame on him. I didn't see anything you just said in that game. |

Re: Week 2: Baltimore Ravens @ Tennessee Titans
Until one actually understands the offense and what the QB is looking at I'm taking the criticisms lightly. Is Flacco a bad QB? He might be a terrible West Coast QB, but I wouldn't know that because that's not the system he's in. If I try to grade him that way he will never pass the litmus test. But at the same time I wouldn't know because I haven't seen him in that type of system. He might be better suited for that. But that's not what we run.
