To be honest not sure id say our D dominated. We forced turnovers but they drove on us a decent amount. 

 

They had way more yards on the ground and through the air. 

 

Our D dominated the game for the most part.  Near the end when the backups were in and it wasn't the QB we gameplanned for things got less awesome but it was the end of a preseason game.

 

Aside from a few series at the beginning of the game (basically until the Ginn PR) we looked a bit flat but what we delivered was a smothering, fun to watch, absolutely beastly defensive performance.

 

I hope we see a fraction of that throughout the regular season games.

I was wondering if maybe the media would throw us a bone and make the headline that our defense is awesome and just destroyed the Ravens and their 100 million dollar QB. But I knew all along it was going to "Ravens bungle and goof up the game, it's only preseason."

Thank goodness that game didn't count because the Panthers won. Whew!

I get what you're saying but the whole point of a defense is to get turnovers and keep the other team from scoring as many points as the offense.  They did that in resounding fashion last night.  Flacco looked good on the first drive and the last one (against 2nd teamers) and that's generally good enough to win.  Had the offense been able to move the ball at all it might have been a blowout.

 

My biggest concern is that it took a punt return for a TD for them to get out of the funk they were in...but I understand it too.

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
