Hell, the Ravens mystified me yesterday.

Taking nothing away from the Eagles, because they played great in the second half...

But you're up 10 points and get the ball after the half, your running back is getting something like 11 yds per carry, and you still call almost entirely passing plays. They were terrible on 3rd and short. Rice ended up north of 5 yds a carry, and they tried to pass on third and short every single time, and failed every single time.



Oh, well, at least it's only week 2 and there's still time to work on stuff.

Ravens offensive playcalling generally mystifies me.

I feel like they put a lot of emphasis into letting flacco attempt stuff he shouldn't be doing in games they can still lose.
