How Come Nobody Told Us the Ravens are All Talk, No "O" - New England Patriots Forums

Jeez, they should be up by 21 points. They just sacked Manning; maybe they'll come back. If we were lucky enough to win tomorrow, I would love to get them in the AFC Championship game.

What a joke the Ravens offense is. Hell, put Boller in and throw it down field.

How should the Ravens be up by 21? Their offense is weak.

Now where is that visiting fan who thought I was nuts to want Baltimore?

his off game plan has been same all season...only difference..his defense scored pts and gave short field positions...today neither happened and billick was left holding his stupid pad

Wow. I had no idea how feeble Baltimore's offense is. Baltimore doesn't give up a touchdown in the game and still loses. WEAK!!!

Baltimore's run offense stunk this year. They were the one team in the playoffs that matched up very poorly against Indy. People forget that Baltimore fired their offensive coordinator partway through the season.

Because Manning didn't have a good game and couldn't put it in the end zone. He threw two picks which gave the Ravens good field position and they did nothing with it. I don't even think the Ravens D played that well (although they probably got tired being on the field all game); even though the Colts couldn't get in the endzone, they did manage to run on the Ravens a bit. What a waste of a bad game by Manning.

Right you are NEM. I couldn't believe that the Ravens had the same offensive plan as the Chiefs. Run up the middle and when that doesn't work, we have no answers. Why not spread the field? I didn't see them do that once.

You all couldn't be more right... Baltimore blew its chances, first and foremost with that McNair INT AT THE GOAL LINE... a total choke job on that down

Ravens were in hte game thanks to their defense but except for Clayton (and even he fumbled a HUGE play away) the offense didn't show up

BTW, Vinny has improved his kicking EVERY game I've watched this season. His FGs are longer than they were last season for us... he's been routinely hitting from 48+... I'm confident in the Ghost but it sure smarts seeing #4 in that uniform
