Game Day ***Cowboys vs Ravens 2nd Half game thread***

[FLcowboy]

This is a new Ravens offense with 34 points on the board. Nothing to see here though right? All is well!!

Nobody is claiming all Is well. The Ravens offense put 20 points on the board, and took the whole half and then some to do it, versus a less than a quarter of Dallas' first team offense. Dallas has a pretty bad second string defense. We all can agree to that

It's preseason. And keep in mind they had a flukey defensive TD and a kick return, so the score is not a true reflection of O vs D.

Exactly
In a real game those scores don't count

That drive should lead to massive cuts.

Yeah some guys should have to clean out their locker tonight.

Weeden is going to be on IR after this game. He's probably begging Red to pull him already.

 

[jobberone]

Scores don't matter, but penalties and depth players do.

That's fair. We got a good look at the depth since they played their 1s. Not so good.

OTOH, the Ravens should have a great D this year and we gouged them good.

Weeden on the overthrow

 

[Toruk_Makto]

Rolando McClain hasn't look all world and he is definitely out of shape. Still he has 6 tackles, 4 of which are solo.

Bringing him along intelligently.

 

[coach steele]

Weeden!!! High, behind, and over the middle. Should have been picked.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

Weeden isnt accurate because he is getting drilled behind this OL

 

[jobberone]

Bad throw again. Gotta work on that.

 

[SDCowboy]

Got away with a gimme pick there.

Don't worry, they use the same kind of excuses in real games too.

Again, get off the ledge folks! Our "first string" defense shut down Flacco. Our first string is a term I used loosely. We were without three of our top CBs, Melton was missing, we were without several other key players. Naturally, the depth will stink.

Flacco didn't do squat until we put in Mitchell at CB. He will be our fifth CB.

No excuses...those are facts. We have a team that is difficult for outsiders to accurately evaluate. We haven't seen anywhere close to a full squad on defense. Not only that, we pulled nearly the entire starting offense.

Baltimore kept their starters in almost the whole first half. What do you guys expect from a team that's trotting out third and fourth stringers against a team like BMore?

oh yes, in the regualr seaosn they do that too, if you get a td you dint really earn, they tak e it back, done being in fantasy land? every score matters.

Must be fun for you to make generalities and straw man arguments.

So are you arguing that a st touchdown is a reflection of o vs d? Because that is what the post said.
Or are you going to make a snarky drive by comment that doesn't really address the post?

 

[RS12]

Must be hot in the booth. play by play guy sweating be be's

Some people can only speak in snarkese

A logical argument is considered an excuse or whatever by some. They're not interested in debate or just conversation.

It's not a real game tonight. It's a glorified practice. A time to evaluate depth and potential. But go on and do your thang anyways buddy.
