1st string O struggling against ravens 2nd string D

[BigBoss]

We are a long way from being a super bowl team.

[Snake]

Time to run the veer....

You must remember a handful of things about our offense.

1. We are playing extremely vanilla.

2. We have no starting FB with Tolbert and White Mike out.

3. That is not the O-line we are going to start the year with.

4. Cam is historically bad in the preseason.

5. The Ravens have a very good D-line

[carolina-chuck]

John Simon was just too good.

[Cary Kollins]

We will be just fine.

 

If you told me a couple months ago the offense was the only thing that needed correcting I would have been very happy.

[Snake]

It is amazing how good an offense will look with a solid offensive line. If we can upgrade the line with 2-3 pickups, Cam and our RBs will look tons better.

A G was drafted top 5. That shows you how much talent was avalible in FA this year. We are in trouble with this line for a few years down the road.

Jesus.  You guys make my brain hurt.

Offense sucks balls top-down. I don't like shula's playcalling, our oline can't protect poo and our WRs dropping passes. And the elephant in the room Ace Boogie himsef when he has time back there; his decision making, not making easy throws, missing wide open guys, accuracy, pocket presence or lack there of....wtf is goin on Shula. We need to clean that up or we're gonna be the bucaneers of the late 90s.

Great news is who needs an offense with a D like that man! If our D keeps playing like that, we can make the playoffs with a crap offense. Our defense will fugg people up this year. I've already put Luke in canton :)

For people blaming Rivera and the coaching, I didn't know they could go out and protect Cam and create running lanes too. I don't hate Rivera like some of you guys do.

His decision making tonight was pretty decent. No ints in the last two games since the first preseason game. He just missed on a few throws and his wr dropped critical passes as well as miscommunication issues. I think those issues can be cleaned up.

We have likely the worst offensive line in the league right now.....it's obviously going to affect the execution of the offense as a whole. I have questions about Shula as everyone does but we don't even know exactly what they are trying to do because they haven't shown us yet.

[stirs]

Our Oline is who we thought they were going to be. Well, actually a bit worse. Lead feet, missed assignments and no push whatsoever.

Cam is still inaccurate about half the time, whether he has time or not. Worst moment for me was when after a qtr and a half of the offense sucking, he is concerned that he strikes his first down pose. Meanwhile, in the real game, just a few feet behind him, Steve Smith is in a fight over the late hit on him. He has mentors trying to get his head in the game, but still he finds for "cam". Come on man

Lefell gonna have to hand catch and not let it into his body.

Play calling was pretty horrific. Obviously if we were executing anything well, we would not mention playcalling, but try a dump off to a RB every now and then to slow down the rush, my goodness.

Except for the first drive, the D and ST get the day off from my ire. Keek had a great debut on national TV an so did Star. Good to see Beason back on the field. DB's not pressing, hopefuly it is not because they don't have that ability.

You can't replace 60% of the offensive line and expect results within a month. By the time they even start to gel, it will be November.

I find it funny when people talking about Cam missing throws like Brady never misses throws. Brady looked like Mark Sanchez last night. Scary how qbs look bad when they don't have time and their wrs drop first down passes.
