Ryan Mallett signs and will start for Ravens

[raduray]

It will be interesting to see if he brings a new attitude.
Report: Eleven days after signing, Ryan Mallett to start for Ravens

Any other season, I'd complain about how now that he's on the Ravens he can just throw it as far as he wants and it's either a catch or DPI. This year though...man, that team got screwed worse than us.

This gives Mallet a shot at a decent free agent signing. He can still be very impressive in short stretches. And coming up big against the currently fearsome Steelers could boost his career.

I know the Jet fans will be pushing for him at every turn.

No, they didn't get screwed nearly enough for whining and for their handling and lies during the Ray Rice GF beatdown.

Good way to complete the tanking process ..............

Perfect arm to employ the Flacco DPI strategy. He can probably go ten yards deeeper than Flacco.

There go my FF points off of Kamar Aiken.... FML

But didn't Flacco routinely screw you over with his "Jumpball Joe antics," too?

So now it'll just be overthrown instead of a DPI.

Trying their damnedest to ensure the highest pick possible.

Mallett a guy who looked "pretty good" in our system, but failed in every other one..

Maybe there is a lesson for other teams to learn, otoh probably not..

its the only reason I can see for why they aren't starting Clausen

I dont know if we can count Houston as every other system.

Anticipating failure today..

When heard this was a possibility, I picked up the PIT defense for the championship game. Hope it pays off as well as licking up Cousins at QB to start over Fitzpatrick, who I streamed for the past four weeks after getting annoyed with Ryan's collapse this season.

No, he didn't.

Mallett's deal runs through next season.

 

[varjao]

He is doing all right

 

[Off The Grid]

15 for 19 with a TD and no Picks for an horrible Team against the Super Dooper Steelers???

Why can't we get Players like that???

Ryan Mallett...Always loved that guy.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

He had a good first half. Nothing eye popping, but looked like a more than adequate backup/lower end starter. We'll see how he fares in the 2nd (not getting the Pats game, which looks like a good thing right now).

 

[raduray]

Mallett knocks out the Steelers. A true Patriot, LOL.
