Re: Ravens v Commanders game thread

Basically 4 new starters on the O-line along with a completely new offense. I expect that it will take some time before they gel together. Will be some growing pains for sure, but I was encouraged by what I saw against BAL. Something to build on...

5 qb hits and three sacks isn’t exactly encouraging. The o line is going to be an issue. Like that guy said though Sam at least can use his legs. Going to have to until we get some new guys up front. I still think we will be better than last year everywhere else. Defense. Run game. Play calling. Quarterback. Secondary. WR’s. TE. But O line is an issue Chief. We got one more year of building left than it’s on.

How many of those happened against the O-line we are expecting to start the season?

The two sacks Howell took were squarely on him for holding the ball too long.

Re: Ravens v Commanders game thread

A lot of film review said the run blocking has been the weakest of the o line performance, too.

I believe that. The run blocking didn't look nearly as good as the pass blocking in the Ravens game.

Fromm and Brissett are both upgrades over wentz and Taylor ..this team is so much better than last year .. I know it’s a nothing burger game but a dummy like me can see the difference!!

Re: Ravens v Commanders game thread

EB offense seems like a perfect fit for Fromm.

Re: Ravens v Commanders game thread

I’m so confused, why was there not a Bengals game thread, and just tacked on to the end of the ravens thread??. Also I guess I’ve lost my freaking mind, since when has their only been three preseason games? So we have a open weekend before the regular season starts with no games? WTF

Remember? Took away a preseason game and added a regular season game.

Re: Ravens v Commanders game thread

Admittedly it is hard to tell, aside from the C they list all OL bar 2 on the team website as T , OL or OT ( yes they have some as T and a separate group as OT). He probably has the ability to play Tackle, which of course they love flex, but I thought he came out primarily as a guard.
