What? You were sexually assaulted in Baltimore? Sheesh. Shoulda called the police!
Joe Flacco. Interesting QB. Big arm, tall, throws it deep. But, although those deep throughs are high reward, they are also high risk. If McCourty plays well back there, those could turn into a couple of picks.
Our key for the Baltimore game is to get pressure on Flacco, and make sure we blanket the deep balls with double coverage - safety + corner. Of course up front we need to contain Ray Rice as well. It's pretty much the same formula that we used against the Texans, except Baltimore has slightly better secondary targets with Boldin and Pitta.
The question is, will Flacco lock onto/fall in love with the deep ball and force it into some tight windows? If he pulls a 'Brett Favre' our defense could feast on turnovers which will turn into points for our offense.
