This season, the Baltimore Ravens have been the best worst team in the NFL. There have been several losses which should’ve been wins. But, due to calls just not going Baltimore’s way (for instance, their trick play versus Arizona should have been a thing), an astounding number of penalties and freak injuries, and an inexperienced […]
Read moreShould We Be Worried?: Ravens versus Cardinals Preview
Once upon a time in August 2015, if you would’ve told me that the Ravens would be the owner of one of the worst records in the NFL, I’d say you’re crazy. No, I’d say that you were, pardon my expression, batshit insane since the Ravens were one of the teams thought to vie for […]

Read moreThoughts on the Ravens’ First Pre-Season Game
Oh Mylanta, that was a weird game last night. In case you missed it, the Ravens dominated (for the most part) for the first 15 or so minutes of the game. And then, out of nowhere, the Saints did their best Randy Orton impression. By halftime, the game was close. By the closing minutes of […]
