Stunned.
Speechless. Shocked. Flummoxed.
1) Who kidnapped
Champ Bailey and replaced him with Wyman Henderson? Smith should have had 4 TD's in the first
half and if Flacco wasn't uncharacteristically inaccurate on his deep ball
today he would have.
2) In 35 years of
watching football, I have never seen a worse gaffe than Rahim Moore letting a kick
return specialist get behind him with 35 seconds left in a game with a 7 point
lead and then time his jump with almost comic prematurity. I guess once he lined up in the wrong place I
should have known.......
3) Why in the name of
all that is good and pure would we run up the middle with a 126 pound Ronnie Hillman on 3 and 7
when a first down wins the game? Worse
still, John Fox channeled his inner-Dennis Green and had our 100 million dollar
QB take a knee with 31 seconds left and 2 timeouts. Waving the white flag here sucked the souls
out of offense. This type of
conservatism makes Glenn Beck look like Che Guevara.
4) 10 penalties? What are we the freaking Raiders? Not only that, the penalties came at the most
crucial times. Our Coaching sucked
today. Sucked.
The Ravens played with more boldness. We played not to lose. The spirit of attack is borne of a brave heart
and we tiptoed through the tulips. I saw
a lot of 3-man rushing packages but no confidence. Where was the swagger? We had 4 golden opportunities to close out
the game and could not man up. Our
Coaching sucked today. Sucked.
Mental gaffes.
Penalties.
Hyper-conservatism. Defeat.
This game feels worse to me than 1996. I didn't get the feeling that we ran into a
team that caught lightening in a bottle, I felt like we were exposed.
If that meathead Harbaugh is going to out-coach us this
severely then I shiver to think of what the Hoodie would have done to us next
week.
Awful. Just Awful.
