Both lines getting punked.
Defense giving up big stupid plays, on 3rd & 4th & long.
Stupid penalties. Anyone who cant figure out where to line up, or how to
figure out where the line of scrimmage is, shouldnt play football.
No pass rush.
Poor blitz pickup.
Some flashes of offense.

Looks like the backups are chips off the old starters blocks.

It sure looks like real problems to me.
For now, we suck.

Poor blitz pickup. a pet peeve of mine. were is PT?

If they would have dropped back in prevent, the result would have probably been the same. The Ravens OLine did a good job. The QB made the throw. And the receiver made a heck of an effort to get past the sticks. It is what it is. The lack of effort and/or execution by the starters is more concerning than a late play with the scrubs vs. scrubs in a meaningless game.

Ok that ones on you Sean. Knock it off.

Stick with calling offensive plays and leave the defense to RR.......for now anyway.

Rob Ryan would be an awful horror film director. I know exactly where the big screams are going to be; 4th and long every time!!! Tragicomedy though he gets the Oscar nod.

Good Job Sean,
You have a defensive asst head coach (Vitt) and two defensive coordinators, buy YOU"RE calling the plays

Shows Sean doesn't completely trust his assistants. Maybe he just wanted to see how the team would with the pressure on to get a feel of how well we can blitz. Maybe he figured if it didn't work that at least it would put the defense against the wall, under pressure, when the games on the line

I expect our D line to improve with Akiem Hicks in the game, he has had a great training camp from reports.
