The Ravens game was meaningless

It would have been nice to win but the game was meaningless.

For it to have any meaning Seattle would have had to beat Atlanta and they didn't.

The Saints still have to win one of the next two to get a playoff spot and they had to do that before the Ravens game.

The Saints are most probably going to get a wild card even if they lose out and finish 10-6 and that is unlikely.

Either wild card spot is the same number of playoff games to the Superbowl.

I agree. It would have been nice but did not mean much.

Except RB needs to go!

I think that the team kinda knew it was a pointless game. The defense usually doesn't make whiffy arm tackle motions. I'm sure they played for a little pride, just for yucks, but they didn't show much. This is just like last season...prepare for the playoffs, get healthy and make the run.

Too bad about Greer. For a meaningless game, we didn't need to lose a meaningful player.

I thought Reggie ran pretty hard but was put in some awful situations. Bad play calling on all those screens and delays to RB and others.

Kinda looked like Payton was using Bmore as a pre-season game for his playoffs playbook.

It was the Ray Rice show, he is alot like Turner, so we'll have to face almost the same back on Monday night. If Turner runs all over us like Rice did, then we have something to worry about. Reggie reminded me of the Easter bunny yesterday with all that hopping around, he needs to start running down hill again.

Should I just have her do a Tail-Gate show for everyone?

Maybe a Pre-Game pep talk?
