Ravens vs Vikings!
Damn, they don't carry this game in Hanover, PA. I'll have to check here for updates...

Vikings radio broadcast (thanks to JDub on the Scout board)
Apparently we've been pretty ugly thus far.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
We look just like we did last year on the road. Not good.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
Pathetic on both sides. 2 TOs used in the first Q offensively. Ogden is getting violated big time.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
Defense has been a joke...short passes and tackling in the open field have left a lot to be desired.
The offense...well, I don't think McNair has thrown a pass further than 5 yards downfield and the run ahs been getting bottled up.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
Oline is playing like last year, Pashos and right side are getting owned.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
The offense is looking progressively worse each game.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
Where's Sephy? We need a real game thread. (NFL,com Gametime is...challenged.)

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
I'm here. A bit confused on the deal, here. I can only run a game thread on one board.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
Pashos looks horrible. This is not good.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
Pashos is as sad a sack as they get. I don't think he's blocked his man once.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
There are certainly some similarities.
-Same crap OL play.
-Same uninventive playcalling (temporary pass for it being preseason)
-Overly complex defensive scheme that effectively reduces the individual talent of the players.
-Poor scheming for quick passes and TEs.
McNair made one bad decision. I won't kill him too much. It was a really, really bad one, but the QB of time past made way more than that in a half.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
BTW, I have no problems running the game threads over here, but I'd like to wait until they get more members over here. Too slow right now. I need exposure baby, exposure!

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
Billick needs to find out what it is that makes the OL play so bad on the road. They can play reasonably well at home, as they did the past two weeks, but it all falls apart on the road.
And I think Rex Ryan needs to get back to basics. Find a way to defend the TE. Forget his complex playbook until we can execute simple schemes.

Re: Ravens vs Vikings!
Poor Sephy, he's torn. LOL
Run it on this one, Sephy. Most of the regulars have registered here anyway.
Ease up on McNair, people, it's hjis pre-season too, anjd he is still getting the nuances of the playbook down and learning the capabilities of his teamates.
It will be ironic though, if Boller comes in the second half and once again wins the game.
