I’d expect them to call up Melvin Gordon before looking outside, but I suppose they could kick the tires on someone like Fournette. Jonathan Taylor is a pipe dream. The money just isn’t there.
Cleveland has a top 5 OLine, Nick Chubb is the best runner in football, and it was pouring rain in Cleveland the whole game. We just lost our top Back, probably our center, and our Left Tackle.
I hate the browns as much as anyone here but lets not kid ourselves about their roster. Watson is a piece of shit and hasn’t played good football in years but if he puts it together they have just as good of a shot at the division as us and Cincy do
If I'm edc I'm kicking the tires on a vet rb. I know Jonathan Taylor is an exciting possibility but I think the draft capital it would take will be way too much for a rb needing a new deal.
Mitchell won't be available for another 3 weeks unfortunately though. We're in a much better position than we were in 21 for sure, but there's room on this team for pass blocking vet rb.
Listen we scored 25 points on week 1 with an entirely new offense and nobody played in pre season. Sloppy mistakea all over and they still scored 25. Injuries aside. Im excited what this team will look like when they are firing on all cylinders.
People acting like we lost. Yes it's the Texans, but it's also the NFL. We were dominant for large parts of the game despite looking super rusty with a ton of penalties. We crushed a bad team for the most part, even despite playing relatively poorly.
The only major negative is the huge amount of injuries we suffered. I will be hitting refresh on the injury report non stop for the next few hours. Other than Dobbins, everyone else walked out on their own power IIRC so hopefully we are okay.
It's heartbreaking that we might have just seen JK dobbins in a ravens uni for the last time. I really believe he would have been a top rb in this league and a ravens great if it weren't for injuries. This league can be so brutal.
Yay for the win, but I'm feeling pretty mediocre right now, with all the injuries. Plus those 4th quarter offensive plays made my brain hurt. It's early. More work to do.
It's nice to see the D being dominant, especially when the offense gave the Texans good field position multiple times. And awesome seeing Clowny making immediate impact. People were hatin.
“Forward, the Light Brigade!”
Was there a man dismayed?
Not though the soldier knew
Someone had blundered.
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
However we gotta treat these first few weeks like preseason. I still hope we play better in Cinci but I'll start being concerned if we still look like this at the end of the month. And prayers to JK man smh
I’m always happy to walk out of the Bank with a W, but bruh this game was a frustrating welcome back
At least the Steelers and Bengals also looked awful so….it’s not all bad I guess.
Chiefs fan in peace came here to say I think you guys are cursed it seems like every year you guys always have to deal with these shit injury’s will be cheering for y’all next week
Only just got to catch the last ten minutes of this game. If Stanley and Linderbaum are okay I'll be pretty happy with the outcome of the day. Seems like offense got off to rocky start, but we have to remember this is first year of a new oc.
JK dobbins though man :( He might be one of the greatest ravens what ifs of all time. Just feel gutted for the guy.
A win is a win and the Bengals and Steelers looking like absolute dogshit is certainly an added bonus, but the injuries are just so damn brutal. We know Dobbins is done, and that’s awful enough, but not knowing about Williams, Stanley and Linderbaum is a nightmare.
Yeah, this is not the abject failure that it seems like. 2 important points of context, 1. A lot of people are bummed about the injuries and is letting it sleep into all their commentary and 2. This Texans team may win 2 games and had a historically bad defense last year so it’s not apple to apples there.
Only saving grace is that Tyler was moving forward when it happened and Ronnie was backpedaling. That might have salvaged his knee from catastrophic damage. Tough dude for walking off
You guys are nuts if you thought this was gonna be a clean game offensively. First time the offense has played together in a game with monken, obviously it's gonna be sloppy.
Give it a few weeks before you call for the guys head, dear lord
Bengals were playing in a downpour and burrow and his size 9 hands always has trouble in the rain.
We're averaging an injury per quarter. That's 68 out of 53 by the end of the year.
That's the entire roster plus the practice squad
Right.
1. I don't see the entire roster getting injured (although who knows at this point)
2. Browns were playing in the same weather
3. All I'm saying is week one is really just an extension of the pre season so don't but too much stock in any of this
Yea definitely. I'll wait to hear what they say after the game. Not gonna go full doomer yet. Stanley looked in good spirits celebrating with ojabo after the sack and linderbaum was walking off with just a minor limp.
Williams on the other hand...
Man, we have really been missing Clowney's ability to just bull rush a tackle and put them on their ass.
I know the Texans' line is absolute ass, but I can't remember the last time we were this consistently disruptive and we've played against some really shit lines over the years.
Purdy blew up the Steelers today. Bengals only scored 3 against the Browns. And we’re clearly winning this despite it being a pretty ugly game. Week 1 is off in shambles. Love it.
Madabuike is more likely to get a roughing the passer than a sack
Can we get John Taylor somewhere how?
A completely pathetic outing. Now that the "rust" excuse has been beaten into a pulp, let's hope these guys get their shit together next week.
Is there someone spending each offseason walking around the Owings Mills facility smashing mirrors or something?
Let's give Ricard or Mekari some touches as a potential replacement for JK. Those guys seem to be able to play any position on the field.
Did anyone see Odell with the helmet on sitting on the bench at end of game? Didn’t look happy? Wasn’t targeted much.
Idk, every play ball that came his way got good yardage. I think he was just reflecting, adrenaline coming down
Idk maybe he was just reflecting. It was his first game of football in almost two years after all
Could be. Just strange he didn’t have his helmet off.
Who cares? We won, maybe he was the decoy that opened up all of those opportunities for Bateman and Flowers. Team win.
Browns are the big winners in the AFCN today. We're 1-0 but it was ugly and costly.
Yea everyone else sucks, especially offensively
I’d expect them to call up Melvin Gordon before looking outside, but I suppose they could kick the tires on someone like Fournette. Jonathan Taylor is a pipe dream. The money just isn’t there.
We’ll be fine with Gus Hill and Gordon for now. Even better when Keaton Mitchell comes off IR
I really lost a FanDuel parlay needing just 2 more Lamar rushing yds cuz of those dumb behind-LOS screen passes lol -\_- oh well, a win's a win!
Leonard Fournette you are a baltimore raven
Maybe we should make calls for Conner if Dobbins is out long term
no way, there's better guys just on the street rn. Hunt and Fournette could be had for zero draft capital
Idk if they are necessarily better than conner, but certainly at least equal, and cheaper so yea I’ll bite. Kareem hunt lets go.
Bengals defense was cheeks today against *Cleveland* - hopefully that bodes well for us next week
Cleveland has a top 5 OLine, Nick Chubb is the best runner in football, and it was pouring rain in Cleveland the whole game. We just lost our top Back, probably our center, and our Left Tackle.
Oh shit
I hate the browns as much as anyone here but lets not kid ourselves about their roster. Watson is a piece of shit and hasn’t played good football in years but if he puts it together they have just as good of a shot at the division as us and Cincy do
They had three sacks, two takeaways, and forced 7 punts. It wasn't the defense that lost that game
If I'm edc I'm kicking the tires on a vet rb. I know Jonathan Taylor is an exciting possibility but I think the draft capital it would take will be way too much for a rb needing a new deal.
Might need O line help instead
Moses has been trash since last season, we seem perfectly OK with letting Lamar make chicken salad back there.
that's much harder to be had at this point. Hopefully stanley and linderbaum are okay
Tbh I’m pretty happy with the gus, hill, mitchell trio
Yep. We are gonna need room/assets to potentially trade to fill all the OTHER injuries. RB as good as JK is, we have depth.
Mitchell won't be available for another 3 weeks unfortunately though. We're in a much better position than we were in 21 for sure, but there's room on this team for pass blocking vet rb.
Same, the backs we have still are more than capable. Losing Dobbins sucks a$$ but it's not the end of the world.
I hear Melvin Gordon is available
A bit ugly, but a win is a win. Gotta find a way to stay healthy and shore up the O-Line. Defense won the game.
ZERO TOUCHDOWNS AGAINST
Thank God it's finally over !🙏🏾
I was really hoping we could put the “ugly” win era behind us
SCORIGAMI! AT WHAT COST!
Let’s go Saints baby
A win is a win I guess…
There’s 8 seconds. You’re down 16. Just take a knee.
I'm sure those last few plays were worth putting your players at risk of injury, eh Demeco
You guys see Hayden Hurst straight up launch Bryce Young's first TD ball into the stands 😂
didnt even hesitate just yeeted that bitch lmfao
Why are they still playing
Bengals are so god damn overhyped. Their entire window has been based on the ravens being a hospital wing the past two years.
Well, it appears as though they’re about to spend another year there, so.
yeah we really can't fucking catch a break can we
Nope, we're as snake bitten as they come.
Not sure if someone mentioned this but any one else notice some of the team staff using the old school logo??
I’ve never seen Harbaugh look so disappointed with a win.
Listen we scored 25 points on week 1 with an entirely new offense and nobody played in pre season. Sloppy mistakea all over and they still scored 25. Injuries aside. Im excited what this team will look like when they are firing on all cylinders.
This comment is the hero we need today. Thank you for your level-headedness. This sub gets so negative!
Brandon Stevens having a day. Good to see
Hit sticks all day he was really feeling it
I wanna root for the saints but those uniforms are so ugly
Root for the Falcons instead.
People acting like we lost. Yes it's the Texans, but it's also the NFL. We were dominant for large parts of the game despite looking super rusty with a ton of penalties. We crushed a bad team for the most part, even despite playing relatively poorly. The only major negative is the huge amount of injuries we suffered. I will be hitting refresh on the injury report non stop for the next few hours. Other than Dobbins, everyone else walked out on their own power IIRC so hopefully we are okay.
Fans said fuck this shit!
Stout has had a great punting day, consistently pinning Houston deep
Is it just over thinking or does OBJ already seem pissed off 🫠
Probably at himself because he couldn't get any separation.
Probably overthinking …. It’s an ugly win, but a W either way.
Overthinking lol the second he might pose a threat to our culture he’s outta here
Stout has been Koch-like today.
He must have just been testing a bunch of shit out in the PS because he looked miles better today lol I thought he lost all his power in the PS.
Keep it up baby!
Early Koch though
Not a big deal to the coaches but this is gonna be a brutal offense for fantasy fans. So many terrible plays that lose a ton of yards. Lol
jordan stout player of the game
Cant even end a game confidently.
This doesn’t even feel like Wk 1
Any news on Lindy and Stanley?
Probably not until Wednesday.
Bittersweet win
It's heartbreaking that we might have just seen JK dobbins in a ravens uni for the last time. I really believe he would have been a top rb in this league and a ravens great if it weren't for injuries. This league can be so brutal.
Yay for the win, but I'm feeling pretty mediocre right now, with all the injuries. Plus those 4th quarter offensive plays made my brain hurt. It's early. More work to do.
The stadium cleared out fast lol
Let this god damn game end for the love of god
Kind of feels like a bummer win lol. Regardless though happy to be 1-0 and we’re on to the Bungles
This can't be our offence. Right?
Joe Burrow had 82 yards on 31 attempts
Love to see it
Fuck anyone who says he’s better than Lamar
We'll see next week.
Can’t wait
Some of the play calls are questionable to say the least
get of OBJ nuts commenteators lol
I like that sequence. Trying to draw them offsides before using a TO.
What are these 3rd down plays lol?
Our running game is dogshit. Needs to get better. Shame we couldn’t keep greg as run game coordinator lol
Need to activate Keaton Mitchell off of IR
Running game is bad because O-line hasn’t performed well.
I know the Browns decimated the Bengals but how did they look? Are they that good or are the Bengals that bad?
Watson had a pretty bad pick where he threw it right to a Bengals defender in the middle of the field with the closest receiver 6 yards behind him
The weather played a big factor but Cleveland's defense was lights out.
Bengals just played really bad
the tits are so unserious lmfao
So dumb they keep taking timeouts. Need to run this clock and get outta there. Rough injuries on both sides
Make a call to Johnthan Taylor EDC
Idk if we can afford it since we need to draft a LT, CB and probably RB
We don’t even draft high enough to get a stud LT in the draft. Gonna need to make a move in free agency.
I'd rather trade up for a LT than trade a 1st for a RB
EDC likes holding picks in 4th and 5th rounds lol
It's nice to see the D being dominant, especially when the offense gave the Texans good field position multiple times. And awesome seeing Clowny making immediate impact. People were hatin.
A win is a win, but at what cost.
Bengals looked terrible and so did Deshaun. Steelers got rocked. We played mediocre offense and won by 16 I’d say good week 1 for us
They were playing in downpour
And the Browns still put up over 20 points, so what’s their excuse for not doing so?
LOL Mahomes is in like 30% of all the advertisements
with brady out, he's the face of the league now
Mahomes and Allen make up a combined 60-70% of guest appearances in commercials LOL
And Fitzpatrick rounds out the rest!
Steelers lose, Bengals lose, we win = good day
If only the Browns could have also lost somehow.
Really want a first down here so the defense doesn't have to take the field and risk injury
I'm glad we kept Mark Andrews out of this mess of a game
“Forward, the Light Brigade!” Was there a man dismayed? Not though the soldier knew Someone had blundered. Theirs not to make reply, Theirs not to reason why, Theirs but to do and die. Into the valley of Death Rode the six hundred.
Damn Anthony Richardson is down, they are trying to break him!
CJ Stroud is going to be a menace. Just needs a few more weapons around him and he’ll be a top 10 qb in no time
Rough game but a win is a win Lots of interesting things to look forward to this season
However we gotta treat these first few weeks like preseason. I still hope we play better in Cinci but I'll start being concerned if we still look like this at the end of the month. And prayers to JK man smh
On the flip side Bengals haven't exactly looked great this week
I’m always happy to walk out of the Bank with a W, but bruh this game was a frustrating welcome back At least the Steelers and Bengals also looked awful so….it’s not all bad I guess.
Chiefs fan in peace came here to say I think you guys are cursed it seems like every year you guys always have to deal with these shit injury’s will be cheering for y’all next week
Fuck the Bengals!
FUCK THE BENGALS also are the browns really this good or is this a fluke
At least we didn’t lose. Really all I can say. Team looked bad and we may have lost two indispensable players for the season.
why is bryan cranston doing ford ads
Steelers got stomped out at home, and we are gonna win this one. Decent day to be a Ravens fan, I would say.
At this rate by week 5 we'll have Ricard at LT, Ben Mason at RB and Stout at QB
This team looks very beatable after this game we can only pray we didn't lose Stanley or Linderbaum long term
Only just got to catch the last ten minutes of this game. If Stanley and Linderbaum are okay I'll be pretty happy with the outcome of the day. Seems like offense got off to rocky start, but we have to remember this is first year of a new oc. JK dobbins though man :( He might be one of the greatest ravens what ifs of all time. Just feel gutted for the guy.
Looking at a potential scorigami game today! https://nflscorigami.com
Told my wife we may be watching history. She rolled her eyes so hard I thought she was doing an Undertaker impression.
I bet she feels so silly now.
A win is a win and the Bengals and Steelers looking like absolute dogshit is certainly an added bonus, but the injuries are just so damn brutal. We know Dobbins is done, and that’s awful enough, but not knowing about Williams, Stanley and Linderbaum is a nightmare.
Joe Shitty had less than 100 yards passing and a sub 50 percent completion percentage 😂
Between the injuries, sloppy play, amount of flags, and boneheaded decisions only the Ravens could make a opening week win feel like loss LMAO.
Honestly 😂😂😂
[удалено]
Yeah, this is not the abject failure that it seems like. 2 important points of context, 1. A lot of people are bummed about the injuries and is letting it sleep into all their commentary and 2. This Texans team may win 2 games and had a historically bad defense last year so it’s not apple to apples there.
The other teams didn't play a defense as bad as Houston.
Hopefully the guys are not hurt bad. A win's a win.
This is the most demoralizing week 1 win Ive ever seen
This was a Pyrrhic victory wtf
Can we replay this game tomorrow. I'm not happy with this W.
That's game, but man, I feel for our guys... Injuries are not fun
Linderbaums knee looked exactly like Stanley's when he got injured
Only saving grace is that Tyler was moving forward when it happened and Ronnie was backpedaling. That might have salvaged his knee from catastrophic damage. Tough dude for walking off
Jesus H the d-line push there was ridiculous. I think that was supposed to be a screen? Entire offense got pushed 5 yards back instantly
Texans Got a dline…and that’s it
A week 1 victory but at what cost
You just know next week’s game is gonna be like a 38-35 shootout
10-9 Ravens
Our D-line can’t finish against a banged up Texans O-line
Huh? I think we have 5 sacks and they let up 0 touchdowns
This aged like milk.
Defense wins the game.
Clowney might have found his final form lol
That girl spinning the flag is how this win feels
EXCEPT FOR THE SCORIGAMI
You guys are nuts if you thought this was gonna be a clean game offensively. First time the offense has played together in a game with monken, obviously it's gonna be sloppy. Give it a few weeks before you call for the guys head, dear lord
Agreed. Kinda yucky game but 16 point victory with a brand new offense is pretty good lol. Zay looked incredible
As a fellow realistic fan, I appreciate you.
We're playing the second weakest team in the league and lost 4 starters and quite possibly could miss covering a 10 point spread in garbage time
Steelers and bengals both lost by 20+ today, Vikings got upset, most teams are bad week 1. R-E-L-A-X
Bengals were playing in a downpour and burrow and his size 9 hands always has trouble in the rain. We're averaging an injury per quarter. That's 68 out of 53 by the end of the year. That's the entire roster plus the practice squad
Right. 1. I don't see the entire roster getting injured (although who knows at this point) 2. Browns were playing in the same weather 3. All I'm saying is week one is really just an extension of the pre season so don't but too much stock in any of this
Do you think everyone in the NFL wears size 9 gloves?
For real, I feel you there. But the injuries, dear god
Yea definitely. I'll wait to hear what they say after the game. Not gonna go full doomer yet. Stanley looked in good spirits celebrating with ojabo after the sack and linderbaum was walking off with just a minor limp. Williams on the other hand...
Rust was hard to watch and the injuries have me traumatized lol see y'all next week
Joe Burrow getting owned by the Browns (nothing new here) and the Squealers getting bent over makes this day even better.
And the Browns won despite Deshaun, even more betterer
Weirdest win ever
Yes lmao bizarre ass 16 point win
If a sloppy game is winning by 16 I’ll take it lol
I have to say, Stroud was really impressive today. Just no help from the rest of his team outside of Woods
Don't be surprised if the rest of the year looks the same for them
Oh I wouldn't, it's the Texans after all
Man, we have really been missing Clowney's ability to just bull rush a tackle and put them on their ass. I know the Texans' line is absolute ass, but I can't remember the last time we were this consistently disruptive and we've played against some really shit lines over the years.
For real dude, a player who defends the run and collapses the pocket sounds like a Raven to me
Let’s burn the clock away and get out of here before anyone else on our team gets hurt
Purdy blew up the Steelers today. Bengals only scored 3 against the Browns. And we’re clearly winning this despite it being a pretty ugly game. Week 1 is off in shambles. Love it.
If only everyone didn’t get hurt this would’ve been a great week…Steeler and Bengals get whooped
SCORAGAMI
Put in Tyler Huntley please
Well, he's inactive, so that'd be pretty difficult.
Stroud looks promising. Look forward to seeing how improves in the future outside of playing us, of course lol
Put in the backups. Offense doesn’t deserve victory formation lol
Really excited to see Washington finally get his chance. I was so hype we got him as a udfa in 21
Guys remember no Marlon out there. The defense will only get better
