Also Philly didnt call alot of quick pass plays.. nearly all were plays that would develop in 3-4 seconds which won't work.

Reid and OC and GM need to go.

Part of that was because they got so far behind they had to pass. This problem was of course caused by their complete failure in the red zone.

right but they wer ebehind in the second quarter.. where you can still run the ball To the red zone and then pass. I mea if it works it works.

look at MN... 12 carries 168 years in the first half..

5 touches second half..

if my RB had over 12 yards per carry.. I wouldnt pass the ball ONCE.

Eagles haven't been giving McCoy the ball enough all season.

I'd only pass the ball to keep them from stacking 8 in the box.

I agree, Philly shouldn't have stopped running.

Puzzled me when the Ravens stopped running in their game. It's not like "Rice, Raymond" is all that good or anything.

Why not give the ball to the "elite qb?"


Bmore would be infinitely better if they stopped trying to make flacco into something he's not and just pounded the ground. Their ground game + screens is enough to tear up most teams.

Also, the Ravens' D isn't strong enough to save Flacco's azz every time anymore.

Honestly, they'd probably look a lot better of the ravens were still running a bunch.

They are definitely worse on D, especially with Webb hurt and Ngata playing through an injury.

But if their offense wasn't horrible at possessing the ball, the defense would get more time to rest.

I think they flashed a stat that the Ravens are near the bottom of the league in time of possession.
