Rickeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyyyy. he should be a good fit for the ravens. i can see them going back to trying to pound the ball down people's throats.

Oh the excitement of games starting soon, but the dread of it only being preseason football. The games you wish were never played.

 

[Kcoastsurfguy]

I agree! The only good thing about preseason is you get to see some of the younger talent in action for the first time, downside is of course injury and season ticket holders having to pay full price for games that dont mean anything

 

[mike dunagan]

Yes sure young talent, that is not highlighted due to backups throwing or blocking for them. The preseason never truly show cases any talent. Jobs may be won or lost, but weeks later those results are often over turned. I agree with the owners ditch two preseason games for two regular season games.
