Its long overdue...Billick the Offensive Guru, should sh1t or get off the pot....

Keep in mind Billick became a genius with players like Cunningham, Moss, Carter, Jake Reed and Robert Smith....

Billick's a great speaker, but I am wondering when the offensive genius will do anything besides use big words...:shocked:

Couldnt have been any worse.

Good point...I just don't know what to expect from this team now...I still think Boller can be the guy...But another year like this and the teams going to start running out of time, the defense may have two great yrs left maybe more, but could certainly start to decline..What a waste of a great defense to be paired with this offense (mainly the passing game)

Scary to think if Baltimore had a Peyton Manning to go with the rest of the team...then they would be New England :drink:

they have 0 receivers . this offense needs to be blown up and started over built around jamal lewis.

feel sorry for that D . held oppt. under 17 points 9 times.

every time they gave up 20 or more they lost until yesterdays game.

You can't be one-sided in the NFL.

Dilfer, Stokley, Lewis (Jermaine)

All three of those guys provided a spark and overachieved for the Ravens on their way to the superbowl. Added to the fact that they had a little bit more size on their defensive front. People say "They won a super bowl already" But the teams aren't the same.

The defense has gotten older (but hasn't really lost any talent) and their offense hasn't gotten any better. They had Jamal before and they still have him now but have yet to improve around him.

Have one of the best olineman in the league but their QB is dissapointing.

Owens to Baltimore would have made all the difference in the world. They'd be 13-3 right now with him IMO. I'm sure Boller can be a NFL QB. Look at the QBs in this league that have been servicable... HE's fine. They need some threats at wide-out.

When you're one-sided in the NFL you have a really long uphill battle to rebuild your franchise. Several teams have been rebuilding for a decade.

I know. That's why I said they haven't gotten any worse... They've just gotten older. Not bad...just a fact. They have replaced some of the older players with Suggs, Ed Reed, etc. They're very very good on defense... They need to stop drafting defense though.
