Game Thread W4 - San Diego V Baltimore (1 Viewer)

[BigRed]

3 runs by SD DEEP in their turf. NONE by LT.

Brilliant!

 

[Despyzer]

Most blatant kicker infraction I have ever seen. No call.

 

[jonessed]

Guess it's not.

 

[mrspree15]

Most blatant kicker infraction I have ever seen. No call.

Ball bounced on the snap = no roughing the kicker

 

[jonessed]

San Diego is a mess. Martyball has left the Ravens in this game and they have a decent shot at winning it.

3 runs by SD DEEP in their turf. NONE by LT. Yeah LT at 97 yards. I get a bonus if he goes over 100.Brilliant!

Ball bounced on the snap = no roughing the kicker

I wasn't aware of that ruling. It makes no sense whatsoever. Why would a bad snap make it permissible to crush the kicker after he gets the ball off?

 

[jonessed]

Intentional safety by Chargers

 

[Godsbrother]

Good call by Marty. But why not put a guy back there that is more mobile and has better hands than an injured punter?

I think the bad snap (or anything other than clean snap & kick) makes the punter a runner, and thus eligible to be tackled.

Mike Carey = the truthOtherwise, I don't know the reasoning behind that rule.

 

[Despyzer]

McNair did a good job of getting the ball off before getting smacked.

 

[BigRed]

cmon Marty you friggin moron....two more yds by LT, that's all I ask

 

[jonessed]

McNair is stepping up, but he is getting crushed after the release.

 

[Despyzer]

Even after he cleanly punts the ball? Still makes no sense.

 

[cracKer]

This has been a fun game to watch.

 

[Despyzer]

Good protection from the BAL O-line that time.

 

[roadkill1292]

Starting to be a replay of last week's Ravens game.

 

[phillzphan]

McNair is a BEAST. Wow. Heads up play and lots of determination.

 

[phillzphan]

Clayton and McNair look great together. Clayton a sure stud in the not too distant future. Wow.

 

[Despyzer]

Worst... Tackling... Ever...

 

[jonessed]

SD just got Martyballed. Great team, ####ty coach.

 

[GreedoShotFirst]

Todd Heap is a man.

 

[Despyzer]

Starting to be a replay of last week's Ravens game.

Starting to be a replay of last year's Chargers season.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

BAM!!!!!!

 

[Tau837]

Pretty forgettable game for McNair, but thanks to Marty, he has a chance to lead his team to victory in the 4th.

Marty =

 

[Doxology]

Martyball

 

[Despyzer]

If this guy get into the endzone, my team is going to lose the game. I think I'll rub my shoulderpad on him. That ought to work.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

I want to marry McNair

 

[ravnzfan]

Todd Heap is a man.

 

[Zman800]

That was a great RAC by Heap. OMG.

I hate the Ravens but that was a great play.

 

[Despyzer]

It took four seconds from the time they signalled timeout until the clock stopped.

 

[Despyzer]

Nobody touched Reed. How did his helmet fly off?

 

[Despyzer]

That was a great RAC by Heap. OMG.I hate the Ravens but that was a great play.

It wasn't that great. Three Chargers tapped him. None of them bothered to even attempt to wrap him up.

 

[cracKer]

65 yard FG attempt for Keading?

 

[jonessed]

As a Chargers fan I saw this coming from a mile away. This is Martyball at its finest. It cost them the playoffs in '04, cost them a playoff spot in '05, and will cost them in '06. This team will never be great until Marty is shown the door.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

BAM!!!!

 

[Gold Plated Nails]

raven gameball to Marty.

 

[Despyzer]

Wow, that was a bad game. Chargers dominated most of that game. Marty got conservative and waited for the Ravens to get their wind back. It'd be tough to say the better team won the game.

 

[BigRed]

I just wish the announcer would shove his nose a little farther up McNair's butt.

:X

Hey Marty you are a genius. Glad you went away from your star player when it counted. Besides we all know what a lame pass-catcher he is.

 

[The_Man]

Only time Merriman got his name called all day was when he knocked Heap into the endzone.

This is why Marty will never win a title. You can't play scared.

### #### Schottenheimer is the king if blowing 4th quarter leads. Will someone talk some sense into that idiot?

 

[piston pete griffin]

Marty-ball strikes again!!! Can't being to list the reasons why this guy hasn't made it to teh superbowl. I don't have enough time.

 

[Blue-Kun]

Should fire Marty tommorow. He gave that game away. How many passing plays were even attempted in the 2nd half? Pathetic.

 

[sterjs]

You summed it up nicely, he plays scared. Why can't he understand that being so conservative actually increases his chance of losing football games?

 

[Despyzer]

Shannon Sharpe just said this game turned out exactly like he thought it would.

Huh?

 

[Despyzer]

Should fire Marty tommorow. He gave that game away. How many passing plays were even attempted in the 2nd half? Pathetic.

I'm not normally a reactionary, but after coaching like he was playing with a multiple-TD lead early in the third quarter of both this and the Raiders' game, I might have to agree.

 

[roadkill1292]

I am loathe to criticize the opposing team but it did appear that Marty got way too conservative in the second half. A lead of 6 is certainly not a safe one, even against a struggling offensive team like the Ravens. They were moving the ball in the air early on, much like Charlie Frye did the week before, and a more diversified attack in the third quarter may have made the difference.

Having said that, for the second week in a row I think the Ravens won a game that they wouldn't have last year.
