They hate us because they ain't us.

Funny how Jack Del Rio didn't cry after the game about the Ravens "trickery" and petition the league to change the rules. I seriously doubt he's calling the Bengals to tip them off about Joe Flacco's excessive use of eye black.

I hope the football gods reward Jimmy Harwa and the Ravens with a 4 - 12 season for thier role in #framegate.

Deception.

Here's the video of the play:

The commentators don't even notice that the "left tackle" ran a pattern and caught that TD.

John Harbaugh may be the biggest hypocrite whiner in the league (not that it's a one horse race.) He makes a huge deal about this in January, cries about it to the competition committee, gets the rule changed - and then uses a similar play himself.

There's no depth he won't sink to. I'm glad his team used this play and still lost yesterday.

Also, notice how this, like the Buffalo noise violations, gets zero attention from ESPN.

Holy crap. It is literally the exact same play with the exception that, as required by the new rule, the offensive lineman lined up outside the tackle box had to have an ineligible number.

 

[Tuck]

LMFAO. This is getting ridiculous.

Nah, I would rather they just miss the playoffs so they don't draft high

What a compliment to Belichick and his team. Harbaugh mimicking the 2014 Patriots in 2015. It's not half obvious who the creative genius in the room is.

I thought they made this play illegal in the offseason.

You just can't have eligible numbers declare ineligible outside tackle box. Because harbaugh cried

"why can't they just play straight football instead of using trick plays?"


I'm sure Ravens fans will spin this in their favor as usual..

I'm sure they've already decided this is okay because it's within the new rule, without regard to the fact that what the Patriots did last year was within the old rule.

THat was the 2nd thing that stood out to me. It's not really a surprise, though... Solomon Wilcot is an awful analyst.

Ah I see.. Why can't the patriots be smart like the tough genius Ravens instead of being cheating p*ssies??

This seems like something people would be pointing out more.
