    The interception was deflected, but it was a very ill advised throw that had little chance of succeeding. Either take the sack or throw the ball away. That decision was very poor. Agree about he defense. The secondary is terrible and that has nothing to do with Flacco or Cameron.

    Flacco has fumbled 45 times in 5 years.

    And Marino had 43 in his first 5 years...your point?

    Look at how many times Elway fumbled in his career. In five seasons he had double digit fumbles.
    Brett Favre had 52 fumbles in his first five seasons. Warren Moon had 55 in his first five seasons.

    Did all these quarterbacks lack pocket awareness?

    So what? The Landovers overhyped RB/QB has 11 so far this season.

    Unhappy

    Good QBs usually have good statistics/QB rating. Great QBs don't lose games.

    Having a real LT might help

    Look at Johnny U's stats. If a fantasy owner looked at his stats, he would call him a bum. I don't think I have to argue that he was one of the greatest to play the game, yet the stats generally don't back that up. He was able to win games and Joe Flacco has done a pretty good job at that too. Last year he came a dropped pass/missed field goal from taking the Ravens to the Super Bowl. It's funny how many people forget that. IMHO he is good enough to get the Ravens there in the future. I am sure some people would like him to win every game and be perfect on every throw and every decision. Of course, those same people don't realize that he is playing against another team. This isn't golf where you just hit a ball in a hole (no offense to you golfers out there - just trying to make a point.).

    That would help out a lot on top of better coaching and a revamped defense.

    I'm tired of watching Torrey drop easy passes. He dropped two very catchable long balls yesterday in the first half alone. Sloppy-Joe Flacco ain't the best in the league, but neither is the pass protection, the secondary, etc, etc, etc.

    The same huge guy, McKinnie, who played very well at LT last year, is on the bench and probably would be playing today if it was not for petulant John Boy keeping him on the bench because he was in a salary dispute with management.

    The future Michael Vick unless he realizes the NFL is not college as far as running the ball.
