Ravens Give Bucs a Beat Down They'll Never Forget!

The Ravens vs Bucs game turned looked more like a massacre. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were no match for the high flying Baltimore Ravens. Joe Flacco had a career day throwing 5 TD passes tying a franchise record. Two of the five TDs were caught by wide receiver Torrey Smith. The Ravens scored on their first six straight possessions to begin the game!

The following poem courtesy of RavensBlogger.com sums up the Ravens vs Bucs game today:

Ravens vs Bills ReCap

The Baltimore Ravens were supposed to be the more experienced team, but could not tell by the way they played today. Joe Flacco threw a whopping 5 interceptions today. The Ravens completely abandoned thr run in the second half and Flacco threw the ball 50 times. 10@ of Flacco's passes ended up in the hands of the Buffalo Bill's defense.

The only bright spot in the game for the Ravens was probably Torrey Smith who had 5 catches for 166 yards. The Ravens did indeed look like a team that lacked leadership today. Maybe Ray Lewis was right.

Final Score: Ravens 20 Bills 23

Ravens Destroy the Jets in Primetime Sunday Night

It wasn't even close. The New York Jets were overpowered by the Baltimore Ravens defense which returned 3 turnovers for touchdowns. The Jets defense did play well but the Ravens defense played better. The Ravens defense set the tone early by recovering a Mark Sanchez fumble for a TD. The fumble was forced by the legendary Ed Reed.

Joe Flacco targeted Torrey Smith deep a few times but they could not connect as well as they did last week against the Rams. The Ravens look good going into the bye week sitting in first place in the AFC North. After the bye week, the Ravens will play the Houston Texans at home.

Final Score: Ravens 34 Jets 17

Ravens vs Jets Pre-Game Analysis

The Baltimore Ravens with be playing the Baltimore Jets AKA the New York Jets tonight. Rex Ryan has built his Jets team around former Ravens and Steelers players. Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith had a field day last week but will be tested against the Jets cornerbacks.

The Jets gave up lots of yards last week but I expect them to try to stop the running game of the Ravens tonight. If the Ravens can protect Joe Flacco and get after Sanchez, the Ravens should get the win at home.

Prediction: Ravens 24 Jets 17

Ravens Slaughter the Rams in Their Own House

The Rams didn't have a chance today against the Baltimore Ravens and ended up getting slaughtered. The hungry Ravens feasted on the Rams after coming off a defeat last week against the Tennessee Titans. The Ravens were hungry for a win and they showed it on the road in St. Louis.

Torrey Smith came out of nowhere to catch 3 touchdowns in the first half!!! Ray Rice had over 160 yards from scrimmage and Joe Flacco passed for 389 yards! The defense held strong and only allowed 7 points to the Rams. Looks like the Jets got next.

Final Score: Ravens 37 Rams 7

Baltimore Ravens Player Organized Workouts

Article first published as Baltimore Ravens Hold Player Organized Workouts on Technorati.

Several Baltimore Ravens players have been participating in a player organized team work out this past week at Towson State University’s Johnny Unitas Stadium.  The practice work out was organized by Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Derrick Mason. The workouts which were scheduled to last three days started on Tuesday. Twenty seven Ravens players attended the first workout. There were several key veteran Ravens players in attendance such as Joe Flacco, Ray Rice, and Derrick Mason.

Some of the rookies taken in this year’s draft also showed up for the workouts such as wide receivers Torrey Smith and Tandon Doss. Derrick Mason commented that the rookie wide receivers still have a lot to learn to compete on the NFL level, but he believes they will excel once the season starts and will help the team. He feels the addition of Torrey Smith and Tandon Doss will only help him and veteran wide receiver Anquan Boldin during the regular season.

Some of the veteran defensive players in attendance included cornerbacks Josh Wilson and Domonique Foxworth. Jimmy Smith, who was the Baltimore Ravens number one pick, was not in attendance at the workouts and as a result stirred up some local controversy.

Many people have criticized Jimmy Smith for not being in attendance because they view the player organized workouts as an opportunity for him to show how serious he is about becoming a model player for Ravens. Rookie wide receiver Torrey Smith, who has befriended Jimmy Smith, took up for him tweeting that the workouts were mainly for offensive players and that Jimmy Smith did not miss a thing.

Personally, I do not blame Jimmy Smith for not attending the workouts. The risk of injury is just too great considering that he hasn’t even been paid yet and currently has no injury coverage by the NFL.

Ravens Pick Wide Receiver Torrey Smith in Second Round

The Baltimore Ravens have decided to fix their problems stretching the defense on offense with their second round pick in the 2011 NFL draft.  The Ravens picked speedy Maryland WR Torrey Smith and now have an impressive group of wide receivers.  The Ravens have added speed to both the offense and defense with their first two picks and I am very happy so far with the selections.
