    Logan Ryan is a fantastic tackler, even of RBs. The rest of our CBs are not unfortunately. Maybe force runs towards Ryan. Also losing Jayon hurts a lot too. A shootout might be our best chance and that means we need good Tanny.

    Actually he might be fine.



    I guess Vrabel was just being his usual vague self today when talking about it.

    I watched several Ravens games on game pass today and their passing game is virtually devoid of WR routes except go routes...never saw a quick slant or 10 yd out or anything like that....tons off dump offs to RBs and then TE stuff...We need to force him to hand off to Ingram and make Ingram run between Casey/Simmons/Jones...I’m fine giving up 5 yards a pop to Ingram and milking the clock to avoid Lamar breaking off a 59 yard highlight run....if we can get him into a 3rd and long then we will be able to bait him into a bad throw by mixing up our coverage scheme.

    Another thing.... When he does run, hit h hard. Try to strip the ball out. A fumble could be key.

    We may have to rely on Tanny a lot this game if we can't run it up the gut like we did in Foxborough..

    Yeah agree, I fear Henry won’t be as big a factor against this D as he was at NE. NE’s D fasted on some poor competition so statistically they were stats that weren’t as impressive as the Ravens imo. This Ravens D is fast and swarming Tanny is going to have to throw a lot more than he has to in NE which will expose our less than stellar pass protection. The more I look at this match up the less confident I am feeling unless we can
    Jackson to stay in the pocket and make him throw but shutting down their running game. I wish I felt confident we can go toe to toe with them but I’m beginning to worry we may get waxed unless Smith comes up with a creative game plan to get Tanny and our WRs rolling early and often !

    Mostert for the 49ers went 19 for 146 and most of his runs were off the edge...Garrapalo was 15 of 21 for 165 in a driving rain storm....Chubb went 20 for 165 when the Browns beat the Ravens...Mayfield was 20 of 30 for 346 (before the Ravens acquired Peters)

    those are numbers that I could see happening,

    The Ravens have jumped out to such leads in so many games that teams had to abandon the run.

    Anyone know about this secret playbook in Baltimore? Well no one knows exactly because it’s a secret.

    Radio out here mentioned Ravens have been holding a book of plays back for the post season; since they cruised through and we’re bored during the regular season ...

    Apparently they are going to unleash it starting vs us this weekend.
