| Quick question - where is Tommy Streeter? Logan Payne and Patrick Williams are playing over him. This doesn't look good at all for Tommy. |

#Ravens offense & Flacco looked great in the no-huddle two straight weeks. Hope Cameron lets them do it in the real games.

Cameron better keep this up, more national people are noticing how good this offense looks in the no huddle, it would hurt Cameron's rep badly if he goes backwards. Can you imagine what this offense will look like once Pitta and Dickson come back, DAMN LOL. |

A few thoughts on the game so far.
- Courtney Upshaw needs to improve his hand action to disengage from blockers.
- I like how we've used both Rainey and Pierce, I think we can sustain a Rice injury with those two guys... I like both as backup options but Pierce's different style probably means he's most suitable.
- Flacco is ready. No way he doesn't top 4k this year between his arm strength and improved accuracy... Related Torrey Smith looks like the complete #1 WR. Tandon Doss will make this team, he's essentially Dennis Pitta at WR... But he likely won't see much playing time once Pitta returns.
- Jimmy Smith has impressed me much more than Cary Williams, while both will see the field a lot, but I think Smith is the better option.
- I think we see KO start at LG, I like what I see for the most point.
- And lastly Harbaugh seems to have made the right decision in the kicking competition. Tucker got the entire game and drilled kickoffs when given the chance and looked "stable" on all his field goals. I also like his game face after kicks. I always thought Cundiff had a "relieved" look after his kicks whereas Tucker just looks so incredibly focused and intense. _________________

Tony and Aaron Wilson are two of the best when it comes to getting inside info regarding the Ravens so stay tuned. |

Definitely a sign. The Ravens know what to expect from Cundiff in games so having Tucker get this whole game, the most important game of the preseason, likely means we're doing our due diligence to make sure he can handle the complete kicking duties in a full game. The next game we probably see Cundiff get the whole game, but make no mistake, the fact that Tucker got to start this game means he's leading this competition and the fact that he made no mistakes means he's going to win the job. I'm no longer nervous about the coaching staff making the wrong decision. _________________

| dam streeter making a case for himself to be on the team. its gonna be a tough choice for the coaching staff to determine which receiver is gonna make the team. |

Either the receiver who set up that TD with the great return (Thomson) or the receiver who scored it (Streeter), will fail to make the team.
Where were these options all these years past? |

I wonder if this means he gets cut this week or if they keep him around an extra game. I figured Harbaugh to be the "I respect this guy and want to make sure he has the stage to show himself off to potential suitors"... Either way, I don't care. Whether Cundiff remains and starts the 4th game or not is just a formality. I thought Cundiff was always delusional in believing he had the job to lose as opposed to he had to compete and be the best, most consistent kicker.
And unrelated but at WR I think we see a tough decision. Tommy Streeter has too much potential to be cut, all I know is that one of these WRs might end up on injured reserved- its a deep cast. _________________

| First good pass to touchdown Tommy all preseason and he takes it to the house. This is without a doubt the best rookie class in the harbaugh era and it is going to be hard to sneak any of our rookies onto the practice squad without another team claiming them. |

I wasn't able to watch the game . There are replays on NFL Network at 12 A.M. EST and 10 A.M. EST Saturday if anybody was wondering. 10 A.M... I must really love football. |

Our defense looked pretty good against Eli and Drew Brees......
Flacco and Torrey Smith looked really impressive, I think you guys are in for a big season. _________________ ...What? |
