GAME THREAD - Ravens/Texans

[Sephy]

Finally, this game happens. Lets get a win, and get out of town unharmed, ya dig? GO RAVENS!!!

[F Angelos]

Scott playing?

[4G63]

Lets go D! Time to man up CB's.....

[Sephy]

Crowd is pretty sparse. Hauschka kicking off today to start

[4G63]

If he's gonna have all day to throw it, then we're gonna have a long day....

[Sephy]

Moats out at the 20.

1st, Rosenfels complete to Walter for about 8.
2nd and 2, Sage pumps 2, 3 times, throws it away.
3rd and 2, the blitz is on, and the pass is way too far and away from Johnson. Good start.

[Sephy]

Fair catch at the 32. Flacco time.

[darb72]

Heap caught a pass? Geez, we are opening up the play book aren't we?

[Sephy]

1st, Rice motions out, empty backfield, complete to Heap for 3.
2nd and 7, Rice gets the carry for 4, bounces off the first tackler.
3rd and 3, shotgun, Flacco is sacked. Flag down for holding. His men got beat on both sides, not allowing him to step up.

[4G63]

May have to keep Heap back to block, maybe their setting up the screen?

[Sephy]

1st, after the touchback, give to Green for 7. Big hole.
2nd and 3, another give, about a half yard.
3rd and 2.5, going for Johnson deep over the middle incomplete. Reed on the coverage.

[4G63]

Another 3 and out, good job D!!!

[Sephy]

Punt rolls back to the 23. Lets try this again.

[darb72]

Defense is doing their job so far, we just need to have the offensive line hold up under pressure that has actually won me a few fantasy games this season. The Texans defense isn't all that great when it comes to winning real football games, but they put up good fantasy stats which means sacks and turnovers.

[4G63]

Wow, getting Heap involved!!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Heeeeeeeeeap!

[Sephy]

1st, nice PA fake, rolls left, soft toss almost a screen to Heap, gets 20+ yards. Lots of Ravens fans in the crowd!

[4G63]

Helluva deep pass....Mason messed that up!

[Sephy]

1st, Willis gets the carry, gains 4. Looked quick hitting the hole there.
2nd and 6, Willis spins for 1-2, flag down. Offside.
2nd and 1, nice playfake, Flacco looks deep, goes for Mason to the endzone and incomplete. Good throw, Wilcots dogging Mason for not picking up the undercut by the DB.
3rd and 1, FB give to McClain for 8. First down.

[Sephy]

Flacco's play action has been fantastic today.

1st from the Texans 40, false start.
1st and 15, Flacco goes way too high for Mason, and he falls hard and is hurt.

[4G63]

Shit...Mason down....:(

[darb72]

Ah crap, Mason is hurt. They're looking at his shoulder. He came down hard and tried to catch himself with his left hand.

[RavenScallywag]

Soab....not Mason!

[Fiesty Ravens Chic]

It looks serious.. I have a bad feeling about this!

[4G63]

He's up and walking....:)

[Sephy]

Mason's up and walking around, grimacing a bit.
2nd and 15, screen on, complete to Rice, but no one picked up Ryans and Rice is stopped after 2.
3rd and 13, DEEP TO A WIDE OPEN FIGURS TOUCHDOWN!!!

[4G63]

I <3 Flacco!!!!!

[StingerNLG]

Wow!!! Touchdown Ravens!!!!!

Yamon Figurs!

[darb72]

FIGURS TD!!! 43 yard TD pass from Flacco.

This guy is looking decent enough for a rookie QB from Delaware.

[RavenScallywag]

Jeesh, Never Thought We'd See Figures Make A Play As A Wr!!!!!! Nice

[Sephy]

Figurs found a perfect spot, and Flacco delivered a perfect pass. Hope Mason is healthy soon, but this kid is GOOD!!

[4G63]

Honestly, I'm glad to see Figurs involved.....he's FAST, which opens up the other players!!

[Fiesty Ravens Chic]

FIGURS TD!!! 43 yard TD pass from Flacco.

This guy is looking decent enough for a rookie QB from Delaware.

We will keep him!:happyanim

We better or I would cry!

[WxKevin]

Flacco is the man!

[Sephy]

Moats stopped by Jones just past the 30.

[Sephy]

1st, Slaton stopped after a 2 yard gain by JJ.
2nd and 8, complete to Slaton who goes not fool Suggs at all, and stops him for no gain.
3rd and 8, complete to Daniels for 13 and a first. Ivy was in on the blitz that came really late allowing that completion.

[4G63]

I just hope it takes 3.9 quarters before the Texans realize they can't run on us...

[Sephy]

1st from the 48, Moats for 3.
2nd and 7, complete to Johnson, who is wide open at the 29.

[Sephy]

1st, give to Moats, loses a half yard.
2nd and 10.5, flag thrown, offside on Suggs.
2nd and 5.5, Pryce held very obviously, no call. Anderson beats Rolle and gets to the 11. First down. Come on, Rolle.

[4G63]

They missed an obvious hold on that floater....

[Sephy]

1st and 10 from the 11, Sage goes for Daniels, and Ray is going to be flagged for PI.

[Sephy]

1st and goal from the 1, PA, PICKED BY NGATA!!!!!

[4G63]

Haloti you big sonofabitch!!!!

[WxKevin]

Ngata!!! You got to be kidding me. He is not human...he is a machine!

[darb72]

Nagta with the INT. Anybody else thinking we should try him at CB since all the others are injured or suck?

[Sephy]

Batted up and a sweet grab. I had a feeling something good was gonna happen when they got cute there. How dumb do you have to be to not just run 3 times from the half yard line? The Billick plan.

[StingerNLG]

Nice play by Ngata!!!! Touchdown saver!

Horrible playcalling by the Texans too. They should have run it in.

[WxKevin]

They missed an obvious hold on that floater....

Absolutely. I was screaming for the hold on Pryce.

[Fiesty Ravens Chic]

How dumb do you have to be to not just run 3 times from the half yard line? The Billick plan.


:rolling:

[4G63]

Can Ray Rice get more carries please?

[BArellano]

Stop With The Penalties!!!!!!!!!!! :179421:

[Sephy]

1st, McGahee for 1. Flag down. Holding on Grubbs.
1st and 20, give to Willis for 5.
2nd and 15, complete to Clayton after another sweet PA, gain of 17. Perfect.

[Sephy]

1st, Willis with a nice gain of around 5.

That will end the first quarter.

[darb72]

Mason has a shoulder strain. His return is questionable but it may be a good idea to let Joe play without the security blanket if we need to let Mason rest up.

[4G63]

I love the hurry up Offense....it keeps the other D off balance and wears them down!!!

[WxKevin]

Can Ray Rice get more carries please?

He will get his carries. Calm down.

[YRKPARAVEN]

I love how they give out sideline diagnoses like "strained shoulder". Impossible to tell until the MRI. Hope Derrick Mason is ok. Gonna need him.

[Sephy]

2nd and 5, Willis makes a nice cutback for 7 and a first. He looks MUCH, much quicker today.

[Sephy]

Nice block by Gaither.

1st, give to McClain as the upback, gain of 5.
2nd and 5, give to Rice for 4.
3rd and 1, Willis bounces, pauses, spins and gets 2 and the first. Thought he was gonna lose it there.

[4G63]

He will get his carries. Calm down.

You're right, he made that spin for the first! :ww:

[darb72]

That was a heck of a run by McGhee to pick up the first. Kept thinking he was stopped in the backfield but he squirted ahead for two yards.

[4G63]

Figurs pussed out!

[YRKPARAVEN]

Nice duck Joe.

[Sephy]

1st from the Texans 45, deep ball for Figurs thrown to the right spot but almost picked. Really a great play by the DB - the ball was perfectly placed.
2nd, Rice gets the ball and unlucky - only gets 1.
3rd and 9, Flacco looks, decides to run, sees a guy behind him, and goes for after 2. No one was open, unfortunately.

[Sephy]

Fair catch at the 4. Holding on the Ravens. UGH. They'll get it at the 14.

[4G63]

I'll take the run for no gain instead of an INT or a fumble....good job looking around you Joe!

[Sephy]

1st, complete to Green in the flat, gains 2.
2nd and 8, complete to Driessen for 10.

[Sephy]

Harbaugh is challenging the spot. Kind of an interesting challenge at this point in the game.

[Fiesty Ravens Chic]

Harbaugh is challenging the spot. Kind of an interesting challenge at this point in the game.

In his defense I thought it was short too!:jester:

[Sephy]

Challenge fails.

1st, from the 25, Green finds a big hole and gets 10.

[Raveninwoodlawn]

Dumb Challenge

[Sephy]

1st, Slaton for 1. Flag down. Defensive holding on McKinney? wtf

[4G63]

I guess we're playing the refs to day too.....

[StingerNLG]

6 penalties so far on the Ravens.

This is rediculous.

[Sephy]

1st from the 42, Slaton gets the screen, runs all the way down for a TD. Flag down for holding on Johnson. LUCKY.

[4G63]

I think its coming back!! Finally, a hold on them!!!

[Sephy]

Sorry, Daniels with the hold.

1st and 3, PA, deep for Jones, who soundly beat Washington, down to the Ravens 5. Washington basically sucks.

[4G63]

Didn't matter.....their still gonna score.

[StingerNLG]

Omg was anyone covering the middle of the field???

[Sephy]

1st and goal from the 6, Slaton gets nothing.
2nd and goal from the 6, PA, overthrown for Daniels who was covered.
3rd and goal from the 6, Sage throws it away. Pryce was held right in front of the QB again, no call.

FG is good, 7-3 Ravens.

[WxKevin]

If Suggs wants to get paid the money he wants, he needs to start to get his hands on Sage. He is getting way too much time.

[Sephy]

Fabian Washington has really been awful since he got here. He is beat frequently, and when he does jump a route or cover well, his ball skills are abysmal, and he never properly comes down with a pick.

Useless.

[Lee Van Cleef]

So is Copper in, since Mason has got hurt?

[Sephy]

1st from the 20, slung to Clayton, gain of 9.
2nd and 1, give to McClain for 3. Flag down. Defensive holding.

[Lee Van Cleef]

Woo, we got a call!

[Lee Van Cleef]

McClain hobbling off.

[Sephy]

No, Figurs is playing for Mason.

1st from the 38, Flacco total swarmed upon, had absolutely no time. Grubbs totally failed at stopping the rusher.
2nd and 25, complete to McClain, gain of 5. McClain limps off.
3rd and 19, Flacco buys time, complete to Clayton, but only gains about 14.

[4G63]

Awesome throw and catch to Clayton, but still short!!

[Sephy]

Punt goes out inside the 5. Perfect punt. Flag down for holding on Houston. half the distance.

[Lee Van Cleef]

Am I the only one bricking it when the defense comes on the field?

Figurs is returning and playing #2 receiver? Eek.

[StingerNLG]

Ok. We need to get moving here before the Texans actually get back in this game.

[Sephy]

1st from the 2.5, Rosenfels complete to johnson. Holding on the Texans in the endzone - SAFETY!!!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Safety? Good call!

Nice one.

[WxKevin]

OK, Suggs made up for it.

[StingerNLG]

Ok. We need to get moving here before the Texans actually get back in this game.

Never mind. A safety will work just fine. :)

[Sephy]

Suggs clearly held by the LT. Finally we get a holding call at a very opportune time. Free kick incoming.

Figurs runs right into a pile of people instead of breaking to a sideline, gets to the 25.

[BArellano]

Anyone know if Suggs gets credit for a sack there?

[Sephy]

Offsides was called, they'll kick again.

Figurs cuts it outside this time, gets a much better field position.

[Lee Van Cleef]

Damn, that was a good catch by Heap, and an annoying penalty.

[Sephy]

1st, 3:39 left, starting at the 42, complete to Heap to the 31! Flag down. Offensive holding. DAGGER. Chester holds.

[StingerNLG]

Can we PLEASE stop getting holding calls on our offensive line?? This is getting really frustrating.

[darb72]

Ok, this many flags is becoming really annoying. That makes seven against us and four on Houston.

Eventually you just have to let the guys play football.

[Raveninwoodlawn]

These refs suck

[WxKevin]

There is no way that these 2 teams are really making that many holds. This crew must have zero tolerance.

[Sephy]

Chester blew that play, but man Flacco is deadly. He threw that off his back foot!

1st and 20, screen to Willis gets 9.
2nd and 11, complete to Heap to the Houston 39. Gain of 19.

[Lee Van Cleef]

the only thing stopping thise offense being very consistent is penalties.

Nice throw by Flacco to Heap there. Heap definitely getting more involved.

[Sephy]

2 minute warning.

[BArellano]

Can I take this time out to thank God for Flacco

Amen brother.

[StingerNLG]

And check out Heap getting involved today.

[Sephy]

To answer the safety/sack question - no. The sack doesn't count, and the safety isn't credited to anyone except the D as a whole.

[WxKevin]

Can I take this time out to thank God for Flacco

It is Sunday. God thought football was important enough to play on Sunday so by all means, let's thank him.

[Merlin]

Glad to see Heap and Figurs getting involved. Hopefully Mase will recover soon.

[BUDDAROW]

Welcome Back Todd Heeeeeap!!!
These refs suck ass!!!!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Ok, this many flags is becoming really annoying. That makes seven against us and four on Houston.

Eventually you just have to let the guys play football.

Yeah, but when Pryce is getting held every play we're screaming that they never call it. If you're gonna have a rule enforce it, the reason it's happening so often is people are getting away with it and the risks are largely outweighed by the rewards. As in, it's not called most of the time.

[Lee Van Cleef]

That could have been a huge play if the ball got to Smith.

[Sephy]

1st from the 39, 2min left, Troy in, throwback to Flacco, throwback to Smith, who drops it. THat was essentially a screen. Poor pass by Flacco and poor catch by Smith - he had the entire left side open.

[Sephy]

2nd, give to Rice for 3.
3rd and 7, Flacco being blitz hard has to chuck it deep and go for the deep ball, incomplete for Figurs.

[Sephy]

Hauschka will try from 54...ITS GOOD!!

12-3 Ravens!!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Hauschka!!!!!

[WxKevin]

54 yards! Go Rookie!

[StingerNLG]

Wow!! Nice field goal from the rook!!

[darb72]

54 yard field goal for the rookie. Maybe the Ravens have figured out we'll eventually need a replacement for the Weapon.

[YRKPARAVEN]

Refs need to calm down a bit. Two defensive holding calls on linemen in one game is more than they call all season.

[WxKevin]

Nice pass by Flacco than that would have been a huge play.

[Sephy]

Moats doesn't make the 20.

[Sephy]

1st from the 18, complete to Anderson in stride to the 40. Houston is wasting time with 3 TOs.

1st, incomplete for Anderson. 25 seconds left.

[Sephy]

Houston is poorly coached. Billick-esque time management.

2nd and 10, 25s left, Pryce held badly in front of the QB again, AGAIN no call. Rosenfels runs for 15.

[darb72]

Ok defense, stop them please.

[4G63]

I guess their lineman can hold all day.....

[Sephy]

1st from the 45, complete to Johnson for 7. TO Texans, 13s left.

[Greg]

Trevor Pryce has been held all day.

[Sephy]

I like how these minute holds aren't being called but there have been no less than 3 huge holds on Pryce not even touched. Ridiculous.

[Sephy]

2nd and 3, complete to Anderson for a gain of about 6 or so. TO Houston.

[Sephy]

1st from the 34, give to Slaton for about 2-3. TO Texans with 3 seconds left.

[Lee Van Cleef]

How old is Hauschka? 10?

[Sephy]

LOL announcers dogging on Hauschka's youthful appearance.

FG is good. 12-6. Once again the D fails to stop a team from getting pts on a sub 2 minute drive.

[Greg]

One of the holds on Pryce was incredibly blatant, he was chasing Rosenfels and his arm was behind him being pulled on. You could see it immediately.

[Marcel#52]

How old is Hauschka? 10?

Lol naw he's 13... I saw whiskers....

[StingerNLG]

Ok. Decent first half. We are going to need to score more if we expect to beat the Giants next week. Not having Mason out there doesn't help. But we need to finish more drives.

[Merlin]

Officiating has been horrible

Seems like the Ravens defense has been predicated on not giving up the big play, more of a bend but not break approach than we have usually seen.

Am surprised that we can't get the running game going more. But if they keep putting 8 in the box, I think that Joe will get to them

[Marcel#52]

We need to run more, get some screens, and open up some more downfield passes...

[ravenjoe]

Once again the D fails to stop a team from getting pts on a sub 2 minute drive.
It's quite apparent that this team has been, and continues to be incapable of stopping the opposing team when need be - does not bode well! Not to mention the return of Billick Ball in terms of the lack of discipline on offense, as evidenced by the number of penalties!

[Sephy]

Officiating has been horrible

They've got plenty of big plays today already. They just haven't cashed in.

[StingerNLG]

Yeah, the penalties are hurting us. They need to lock that down in the second half.

Look at the brightside. We are winning, and we aren't the Rams! 40-0??? Wow.

[Marcel#52]

OKAY GAMES BACK.... TURN THE HEAT UP RAVENS

turn the penalties down...

[Sephy]

Figurs to the 26.

[OwingsMillsAlex]

I like this kid they brought up to do kick-offs and the long Field Goals. YIKES does he have a foot. We have him earlier in the year and I think we win the Steelers and Titans games.

Flacco looking good but the running game needs to really pick up the second half. I like that Heap was included and made some damn fine catches. Clayton holding onto the ball and now with Figurs in the game as a WR adds to some explosive action.

[BUDDAROW]

What the hell is up with not getting ANY Pressure on their QB???:hammer:

[Lee Van Cleef]

Mason back on the field.

[Sephy]

Mason is back.

1st, complete to Mason who gets 10 but they mark him for 9.
2nd and 1, McClain for 2.

[StingerNLG]

Good to see Mason's ok.

[Sephy]

1st, Willis bounces quickly to the outside. Nice seal by Gaither. Gain of 6. He definitely looks faster this week.
2nd and 4, Willis for 3.5.
3rd and very short, nope, they'll mark it for a first.

[Sephy]

1st, complete to Mason, gain of 12. Mason looks a bit afraid to take a hit, IMO. Absolute perfect route though.

[Marcel#52]

Mason is scared to take a hit now.... I don't really blame him

[Sephy]

1st from the 42, Willis for 5-6.
2nd and 4, Willis for 6. He is putting in a hell of an effort, and showing good vision. Good blocking too.

[Marcel#52]

McGahee looking okay.... starting to warm up

[4G63]

Lets wear them down with the running game. Steady doses of Rice and McGahee...

[Sephy]

1st from the 30, Rice for 8. Totally slicing them up on the ground right now.
2nd and 2, read well by the D, loss of 1.
3rd and 3, Ravens have to take a TO, personnel issues.

[StingerNLG]

Another 5 minute plus drive by the offense. Keeping the defense fresh and on the sidelines.

Now they just need to finish some drives.

[Sephy]

3rd and 3, deep for Heap in the back of the endzone, and he is mauled for PI. He was mugged. That pass was thrown to the other side of the field and off his back foot.

[YRKPARAVEN]

TOUCHDOWN

[Sephy]

1st and goal from the 1, Ngata on the line with Terry on that side too, Willis over the top for a half yard. He may have gotten it on 2nd effort, but its 2nd.
2nd, Willis - TOUCHDOWN RAVENS!!!

[StingerNLG]

Nice play greenwood. Thanks for the free goaline downs.

And touchdown!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Awesome. I'm more confident in the D with that kind of lead.

[Sephy]

19-6 Ravens. Running game completely dominated that drive, with a few key throws from Flacco. This team has a real, legit offense now.

[BUDDAROW]

So Stover is what, 2 PAT from the record??:happyanim :ww:

[Marcel#52]

I don't blame greenwood.. I'd rather give up a 1st and goal then a touchdown anytime...

And wheres Lorenzo Neal in these goal line situations...

[Sephy]

Where was he? Delivering a lead block, along with Heap and McClain that Willis ran right behind. That's where he is.

[Sephy]

Moats to the 26.

[Marcel#52]

Where was he? Delivering a lead block, along with Heap and McClain that Willis ran right behind. That's where he is.

Oh I didn't see him... thanks

[Sephy]

1st, complete to Leach, gain of 8-9. Getting closer with the pressure now.
2nd and 1, Green for 2.

[Sephy]

Oh I didn't see him... thanks

He was actually in on the first down play but not the TD run. So yeah.

[StingerNLG]

I don't blame greenwood.. I'd rather give up a 1st and goal then a touchdown anytime...

And wheres Lorenzo Neal in these goal line situations...

True. If Greenwood doesn't do that, the ball falls right into Heap's hands.

Flacco has been like a machine today. He's making some just incredible throws.

[Sephy]

1st, complete to Johnson as the pressure hit right away, evades Rolle's tackle, and Ray seals that up, gain of 4.
2nd and 6, complete to Johnson in front of Reed to the 40. He's a really great WR. Reed thought he had a pick.

[Sephy]

1st, Sage throws it RIGHT TO RAY!!! PICKED!!

Ngata blew up the line and caused the pick. DOMINATING.

[Marcel#52]

Int Big Ray!!!!!

[StingerNLG]

Does Ray Lewis play for the Texans now? :). That ball was right to him.

[Lee Van Cleef]

Did you see Bart Scott's blocking for Ray on his pick return? Get that guy on the offense... hahaha. Awesome.

[Sephy]

First down Ravens at the Texans 41.

1st, Willis gets 6.
2nd and 4, Willis for 2-3.
Anderson is down. PLEASE don't be hurt badly.

[Marcel#52]

Does Ray Lewis play for the Texans now? :). That ball was right to him.

Update: Ray Lewis has in fact been traded to the Texans for one game... he will rejoin the Ravens monday...

[Sephy]

3rd and 1.5, Troy takes the snap, draw play, gets 8.

[Sephy]

Willie walked off.

1st from the 25, McClain fumbles, and Flacco falls on it.
2nd and 15, give to Rice who is blown up in the backfield. Loss of 1.
3rd and 16, Flacco to try to avoid a sack grounds it. Maybe. Nope. Not flagged. Arguable to where he was.

[Sephy]

50 yard try coming, Stover on this one. Not sure about that. And he puts it way wide left. Terrible attempt.

Why no Hauschka?

[4G63]

Stover's days are numbered

[StingerNLG]

Why......why.......WHY did you send Stover out there for a 50 yard FG when you KNOW he hasn't hit anything close to that distance this year!!!!!

And your high school kicker just hit a 54 yarder earlier!!!!

[Marcel#52]

Stover Kicks ball...aims it for Ravens stadium...

[Sephy]

Yeah, you really can't send Stover out over 45 anymore.

1st play - complete to Walter for a TD. Wow. He absolutely killed everyone on that crossing route.

19-13.

[4G63]

And so it begins.....are we gonna get pressure on Rosenfels or what?

[Marcel#52]

Stovers miss costs us 7 points...

[StingerNLG]

What the hell????

[4G63]

Plan on seeing nothing but passing for the rest of the game, or at least 3 to 1 passing vs. rushing.....I was hoping it would last longer...

[Lee Van Cleef]

Okay, maybe I stated my confidence in the D too early.

[Sephy]

Figurs to the 21.

[Sephy]

1st, bootleg, Flacco dumps at McClain's feet, because he was being held, and it is called.

[BUDDAROW]

WTF did Stover attempt that 50 yarder?????
Wrong call Hardbaugh!! :mad:

[4G63]

Good run Flac!!

[Sephy]

1st, Flacco looks, tucks, runs for 8.
2nd and 2, Willis for 4 and a first.

[Sephy]

1st from the 39. Deep for Mason, and he draws a PI flag. Arguable uncatchable. Illegal contact is called instead.

[StingerNLG]

Can't blame the refs for this game. They have really flagged the Texans a lot today.

[Sephy]

1st from the 44, Willis has a great hole, gets 9.
2nd and 1, pitch to Willis after a FB fake, almost loses it, Willis delivers a stiffarm and gets 6-7 yards.

[Sephy]

1st, from the Texans 39, PERFECTLY thrown for Clayton, and broken up very well by the DB. That was as perfect a throw as you get, but too bad.
2nd, complete to Mason, spins out of a tackle and gets 21!!

[Sephy]

End of the 3rd.

[Marcel#52]

That pass break up was very very nice

[4G63]

Late with the comment, but that was a TD that the safety did a good job of stopping...

[4G63]

Can't blame the refs for this game. They have really flagged the Texans a lot today.

Well they forgot they can commit penalties too.....:ref: :rolling:

[YRKPARAVEN]

Wow, I've never seen a Raven team take the shots downfield like we have today. Amazing stuff. The Texan defense doesnt know what is coming next. Great play calling.

[BUDDAROW]

Well they forgot they can commit penalties too.....:ref: :rolling:

Yeah.........How about That!!!:hammer: :229031_confused2:

[4G63]

That is a bad spot to throw a fade to the sunny corner....

[Sephy]

1st from the 17, Willis looked to have a big gain but somehow only gets 2.
2nd and 8, pump, and too far in the endzone for Clayton.
3rd and 8, Flacco slings it to Clayton, incomplete but the PI flag is coming at the 1!

[Marcel#52]

Texans playing some way too close coverage

[Sephy]

Flacco took a really heavy shot too. Glad he's OK.

1st and goal from the 1, PA, complete to Heap, TOUCHDOWN RAVENS!!!

[Marcel#52]

Touchdown Heap!!!!

[4G63]

Another good pass by Flacco....and Heap for the TD!!!

[YRKPARAVEN]

T O U C H D O W N !!!!!!!!

[Sephy]

Great playfake, Heap fell, got up, caught a great touch pass.

Ravens going for 2 - Rolls right, complete to Mason - 2 pt is good!!

27-13 Ravens!!

[StingerNLG]

Touchdown Ravens!!!!! Todd Heap!!!!!

And the 2 point conversion!!

What an offense we have! And without a gamechanging wide receiver!

[Sephy]

2 pointer was a simple pick and roll to Mason who had no one on him. Well executed, and now a full 2 TD lead for the Ravens.

#5 is gonna be in this city for a long, long time.

[pyite32]

That drive was HUGE!!!

I am feeling some ridiculous man-love for Flacco and Cameron!!

[Fiesty Ravens Chic]

I am so glad I jumped on the Flacco wagon early!! He is such a keeper! We finally have an Offense in B-More!

[Sephy]

Moats tackled by Copper at the 15. Copper is now hurt.

[Sephy]

They're feeling his neck. May be a stinger. Now his left arm?

[sailorsam]

really happy for the Heapster.
a couple flew out earlier today, the guy in a purple jersey, the girl in white, both #86. sweet.
well, back to work...

[Sephy]

1st, from the 15, incomplete for Green who bobbled 2 times.
2nd, Pryce finally not held and gets a sack!!

[Sephy]

3rd and 15, Ngata blows it up and Sage just dumps the ball. Arguable grounding there too. D is turning it up now.

Figurs with a modest gain.

[pyite32]

Ngata is a beast!

[4G63]

1st, from the 15, incomplete for Green who bobbled 2 times.
2nd, Pryce finally not held and gets a sack!!

Imagine that, huh? :grbac:

[Fiesty Ravens Chic]

Ngata is a beast!

That is a under statement. He is half machine half man! :ww:

[Marcel#52]

Figurs disappoints me... so much speed... he makes me miss Jermaine Lewis

[Sephy]

1st from the 44, Willis running strong for 11.

[Sephy]

1st, Willis for 3, then hits a wall.
2nd and 7, Willis, instead of trying to follows his blocks stops, and tries to reverse field like an idiot, loses 3 or 4.
3rd and 10, TO Ravens.

[Sephy]

3rd, complete to Rice, who gets maybe 1. That wasn't much of a try.

[Sephy]

Jones fair catch at the 9.

[4G63]

Good punt Koch....lets clamp down here D!!!

[StingerNLG]

Think about what Ian Eagle said. We played 4 of 5 on the road, and as long as this holds up we will have won 4 in a row.

Playoffs or not, I already call this season a success no matter what the win loss record.

[Marcel#52]

Was there really no one else who could have gotten more then one yard?

[Sephy]

1st, complete to Green for 2.
2nd and 8, Rosenfels throws a rainbow incomplete. Fabian had good coverage, but as far up as that ball was I coulda covered him.
3rd and 8, Johnson evades the tackle of Reed, who was the only one preventing him from a first. Gets 9.

[Marcel#52]

Why is he so good?

[Sephy]

1st, Pryce held horribly again, complete to Johnson for 5.
2nd and 5, Sage throws it RIGHT TO RAY AGAIN! And returned to the 19. LOL!

[Marcel#52]

YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Ray again!

[YRKPARAVEN]

Ray Lewis NFL Defensive MVP 3rd TIME.

[StingerNLG]

Once again, right to Ray Lewis. Someone needs to tell Sage Rosenfels that Ray plays for us. :)

[Fiesty Ravens Chic]

Once again, right to Ray Lewis. Someone needs to tell Sage Rosenfels that Ray plays for us. :)
:rolling: Only 31 other teams want him to play for them but he belongs to US!!

[Sephy]

1st, Willis for 3-4.
2nd and 7, Willis again, gets 2.
3rd and 5, Troy in, rolls, complete to Heap, TOUCHDOWN RAVENS!!!
