Shame of the Game - Ravens

[masterfins]

The offense as a whole, including coaches.  Failed to score points, many different aspects that just turned into overall failure.  There were some good offensive drives, and good plays, but they just didn't put the ball in the endzone.

McDaniel.   His play calling was absolute shit.   4th and goal from the 2 and you call a fade route to your smallest offensive starter who is being covered like a blanket by an All Pro corner half a foot taller than him?

Grier.  We have a talent problem.

McDaniel called a good game, despite a few things I wouldn't have done.

Two different bums named Washington fumbled in key moments that resulted in or cost points. 

Also, Tua gets a ton of shit but he masks problems with how fast he gets through reads.  We never have time to throw.  Ever.  Our line is pathetic.  Even when things are going well, it's because we either took an immediate snap and throw or McDaniel has schemed something behind the line to work like a screen.  We cannot push at all.

I think part of the problem with the "talent" is you have a couple guys on the O-line that are young and need maturing, which they are getting.  The other is that injuries are decimating this team, another two key players lost in the game last night.  Miami is down to 2nd and 3rd stringers, and some of the guys they are replacing weren't A+ talent to begin with.

I did like McDaniel showing some emotion last night, I think you need more of that to inspire the players.  There were literally, not figuratively, a handful of plays that would have made this a win for Miami.
