How Did AD As A Raven Play Against Colts? - New England Patriots Forums

QB12 · 11-01-2007, 11:04 AM

Including most recently in the Divisional playoff earlier this year, when Baltimore kept the Colts O basically in check.

Relatedly, how will BB use AD in this game - as a run stopper, as an edge rusher, as a Clark stopper, or all of the above?

I believe he was repsonsible for the shut down in that game. Clark had 2 receptions, 41 yards.

what a great question

does anyone else remember AD in this game?

All i remember is the Ravens blowing numerous opportunities and Ed Reed getting screwed over on a call when they said he was out of bounds.

But the Colts offense was pretty much shut down all game.

I don't remember much about AD, but I remember Manning looking terrible. He threw two interceptions where Ed Reed was standing and waiting for the ball. Then Peter King said they were "good" interceptions because they acted like punts.

Game stats also have him with 8 tackles and .5 sack.

He didn't do so well when Clark caught that nasty pass for a crucial first down toward the end of the game. Speaking of nasty, how about first and goal from your own one, with 9:15 to play in the half, on the road, in a hostile environment, clinging to a 6-3 lead?? How about responding with a 6 minute 64 yard drive? Can't believe he didn't choke there

I liked the old days when you could knock down that candy ***** at the line of scrimmage. Now you can't touch him because you'll get called a flag called on you.

You realize Manning threw what should have been two more picks, right? And Ray Lewis knocked the ball away from his own teammate twice?

Nice try, but I was physically at that game and the Clark catch that you speak of was covered by Ravens' nickleback Corey Ivy, not A.D. Good attempt though to skew the details in front of those who might not know otherwise.

This is true. I will add that Chris McAllister was in line to pick one off as well that Lewis knocked away from him. Don't know if that's one you are talking about or another opportunity in itself.
