Non contact leg injury for that Ravens RB. Not good. He was basically pogo hopping out there.

Fwiw, when I mentioned Brady, I was mainly referring to his time with the Patriots.  Gronk was good, but generally speaking, their wide receiver/running back group over his last few years with the Pats didn't impress me that much.  I think Brady made some average guys look better than they were.  

I forget the year,(cause Brady has been playing soo long). But there was a playoff game and Pats just signed a couple street WRs and Brady went off.....I was soooo pissed. I think it was around 2012ish, his WR corps was street FAs, scrubs, and PS signees and HE made them looked like they been playing at a high level for the whole yr....

It did help big time that gonk came with him, OJ had no juice(glad panthers passed on him)...

I'm just saying, if we were willing to trade what was rumored for Watson, I don't see why we wouldn't offer the same for Lamar.  And imo, I actually think for some reason, Lamar would actually command less than Watson in the trade market.

I'm OK with the lack of playoff success because I think a lot of it has to do with their team construction.  

All that being said, I would much rather keep swinging at college guys until we hit, but considering we'll likely be in middle-first-round purgatory for the foreseeable future, we likely won't be getting our pick but rather what's left (See Matt Corral).  But, I admittedly am a fan of Lamar as a player, which is also what makes the idea of acquiring him exciting.

Would you want to count on the Panthers doing a better job of roster building than the Ravens?

No we would do the exact same thing we did to Cam, stack our D and hope Lamar can carry the O by himself.

Atlanta with a shot to beat Cleveland even though their passing game has been terrible.

Jackson Intercepted again

[LinvilleGorge]

We were willing to trade virtually everything to potentially get Watson. If the Ravens are dumb enough to even entertain trading Jackson we should be thickly in the mix.

If you waste the picks, then its much better to use them for a proven QB. Just if you hit on picks, its the golden goose......great control player for cheap, its the best way to built a team.....just got to hit on them and thats the issue. You could look at recent panthers draft and would you trade - Horn, Brown, Ickey, TMJ(lols), Taylor, Tremble, and BSmith for lamar.....PLUS paying him 55+ sucking up cap space.....man its a tough sale for me, but I could be talked into it.....

Don't get me wrong, drafting is THE WAY.  If you hit on a rookie QB, there's no better way to build a team for cap and assets.  And rarely ever do real franchise QBs become available in the league.  But I agree, I would definitely entertain the idea for a guy like Lamar.  It more likely than not would be worth it.  Love some of the guys we have picked like Horn and Ickey, but I think it's a lot easier to find guys to plug in at those spots than a franchise QB.  And they're doing a good job of supporting my theory that even elite players that aren't QBs just don't make that much of a difference without the actual QB in place...  but obviously, as we know, coaching also plays a big part in team success.

[Butterflyj30]

Wow what are the Ravens doing  

[Basbear]

Dang.... got a real game.....I agree needed a run pass option...

[LinvilleGorge]

Tied game late in the 4th and you're going for it on 4th and goal from the 2???

The Ravens are a hell of a organization, and were especially under Newsome.  That being said, I still believe in Fitterer and would like to see what he does free of Rhule's dumbass.  So I would be hopeful.

Bills are going to screw around and win this mess
