Colt's Game Performance

Collins beat Colt hands down!

If that Ravens CB had hands, Collins would have given up a pick 6 and you wouldn't be making such a vehement statement. Essentially they both threw bad passes but Collins had a LOT more time. I'm not saying Colt did well, but he did show mobility as well as pocket awareness (it's almost like he had an exit strategy every time the pocket collapsed) and is close to being the #2 guy IMO.

If JC goes down for any extended period of time, there won't be much of a salvaging season type effort. In that case I'd like to see what the younger guy can do, not a guy who has maybe 2 more seasons left in him.

We can all IF this thing to death to make a case for our fav players.
IF the wr was taller he would have made the play for JC
IF the wr wasnt mugged by the db and had his head up to see the ball CB wouldnt have thrown a pick.
IF the TE on the seem route catches the ball he is off to the races.
IF our secondary was better we wouldnt have given up 100 yd games to THREE different QB's.

Fact is, the team as a whole has a long way to go. we were outplayed and outcoached.Hard to be outcoached in the preseason when some guys are coaching to win and others are not, but somehow, I agree with you. The Ravens coaching staff just does an excellent job.

How do you outcoach someone in a game that has no meaning or matter whatsoever? I don't get it

Colt looked tentative. Try him out with the first string of lineman and receivers and see what he can do. Also, give Chase a chance. Agree with those who say our dept is suspect.

500 Plus yds of Offense while holding us under 200. They wanted it more,they didnt let off the pedal in the 4th qtr when the game was out of reach. They drove the ball down our throats on offense and blitzed the whole game on defense. This was a statement game for the new D Coordinator for the Ravens,and for Cam C on the Offense.

[QUOTE=CRedskinsRule;576056]Interesting thing on that is if it had been Thomas or Kelly in that spot, both of who are 4-6 inches taller, that throw would have been right on the money.

Time will tell, but I am starting to think this game will fade into dark very quickly, and the team will be better from it.

Our QB's had high throws.JC overthrew Hagans and CB overthrew the TE on the Seem route. They were bad throws,and to say if it was this guy instead of that guy it would have been there is not a good excuse at all.What,because we have DT and MK does this mean when Santana -short wr-is open and he gets overthrown the QB will say sorry man,im used to throwin to DT. Brady throws to Moss and Welker,2 wrs with very different statures. I never see him overthrow wes and say dang, i thought you were randy.
Lets just take off the JC and CB goggles, put down the Koolaid and say the wrs were open for big plays and the QB's didnt get it done. Hopefully they improve and are able to take advantage of those situations in the future when it counts.

2 sides there... a Hagans fan might say a NFL QB should be able to hit a wide open wr on the numbers.. just sayin.:)

If the ball hits an NFL receiver in the hands, he should catch the ball IMO, Hagans will soon be looking for another job.

An NFL QB should be able to hit a wide open wr dead in the numbers. We can do this all day. You Cant just put it all on the WR.

Even if the wr catches the ball he comes down and falls out of bounds. or is hit when he lands and is out of bounds.. if the ball is lower the guy is off to the races after the catch.

I would like to wish Colt a happy 26th birthday.
