Week 6

[raven maniac]

Looks like Romo broke one of his fingers on his throwing hand and will be out up to 4 weeks. We can probably handle the Rams without him, but maybe not the Bucs. I sure as hell don't like our odds against the Giants without Romo.

 

People will get to see if Brad Johnson has anything left in him.

 

Simply put, this sucks.

 

Yea, hows it feel now. Thats pretty much how Pats fans were feeling, except we're out of Brady for a whole year. I didn't get to watch any football yesterday, but I heard Pats got rolled by the chargers.

 

Welcome to the Raven's world since 1996.

 

Our QB history is:

Testeverde

Harbaugh

Banks

Dilfer(backup, won superbowl & went 7-0 as starting QB to be released following year for Grback)

Grback

Boller

McNair

and finally Flacco.

 

We haven't had a quality QB in.......EVER. The Raven's play tough defensive football, but we're still looking for a QB. Dilfer, who is now retired, was the only QB we had that was actually OK. I don't consider McNair as a quality QB because of the fact then when played for the Ravens it was actually time for him to retire lol.

 

The Patriots have had Drew Bledsoe & Tom Brady, 2 quality QBs that have proven themselves. Now of course Bledsoe only had a 56% completion rating with 4,518 attempts and 2,544 completions, but still stellar numbers compared to those of the Ravens.

 

The Cowboys....come on.......Roger Staubach & Troy Aikman both Hall of Famers. You guys also had Drew Bledsoe, but he didn't play very well in Dallas lol.

 

You can never guarantee anything, but if the Raven's had a decent QB I think we would be a way better team.

We have QBs for short periods. Yes Staubach and Aikman were some of the best, but they were not amazing for long stretches of time. We get plenty more of the shitty ones throughout most of our history.

 

The Ravens are relatively new compared to other teams, so they will eventually find a great QB. Hopefully, one will be found before your defense goes to shit. Some of your other QBs have been good, just that they couldn't be good consecutively, which is really important.

banks was pretty good? raven....

banks was pretty good? raven....

 

The problem with Banks is that he was too inconsistent. He did decent throughout the season, but was replaced by Dilfer who went 3-0 during regular season and 4-0 during playoffs/super bowl.

 

Dilfer was, in my opinion, at best a backup QB, but proved me wrong when he played as good as he did in 00'.

Dallas cowboys have had worst.they had like 2 or 3 no named quarterbacks! 2000:

2001-03: Quincy Carter

Chad Hutchinson-04

 

they had to be the worst NFL QB's in the league there not even playing in the NFL any more lol!

 

 

there was one more i just forgot his name

[Italian Jew]

Ryan Leaf

 

He sucked completely

 

We also had Cunningham, Wright, Stoerner, Henson, and Testerverde. From 2000 to 2004, we never had one QB start and finish a season. They all switched with Carter, Hutchinson, etc.

Cunningham was awesome!
