Collins got the start.
very happy with the pickup. If he becomes the starter he'll be super useful as the BYEs approach.

I'm not sure why they got away from him.

The Ravens are nitwits like that sometimes. They always seem like one of those teams where they go in wanting to give each RB x-amount of touches and seem to adhere to it no matter how good or bad someone looks.
Give everyone a touch on the first series or two, then ride the hot hand(s) the rest of the game

You can't have a RB in your 1-2 rotation doing kickoffs or punts. Too dangerous.

3rd and 2... pass. Baltimore has some odd playcalling.
Tells me that they aren’t quite ready to hand the reigns over yet... but, I think it’s coming.

Well it's not a Collins thing to me, it's any of West/Allen/Collins. Campanero should be doing kickoffs really.

It's ashame. This guy is easily the most explosive player in what is a god awful - historically bad Ravens offense.

You have a point. Harbaugh would be wise to recall Andy Reid not punishing Kareem Hunt when he fumbled his very first carry.
The Ravens need a spark. Collins' fumble was costly but he does flash potential. And they need it on that putrid offense.

The difference is Hunt never had a problem with fumbles. Collins' biggest knock is fumbles. It's teachable but like his leash is not long.

Excellent point. He needs a shot at redemption. They need a reliable spark. Ravens need to stop making costly mistakes. Tough position for sure.

He already got a shot at redemption. It really isn't a tough position, Harbaugh would be nuts to give him meaningful touches until/unless he gets better at holding onto the football.

Dammit, can't one lotto RB pan out this year? Collins looked like a no brainer until he coughed that up. Sucks, but understandable -- ball security is extremely important in today's game.

Actually it is a crappy position to be in as a head coach. The decision may seem a no brainer in so far as not using Collins, but make no mistake, Harbaugh is in a tough position. His running backs who don't fumble can't gain positive yardage. And his one running back that seems to show that he can gain yardage, fumbles. If that's not being in a tough position then I don't know what is.

I wouldn't give up on Collins yet. The fumble was disappointing, but he's far & away their most talented RB.
Collins is better than I've ever given him credit for. I was so-so on him coming out & wasn't overly impressed when he was in Seattle, but for whatever reason(s), Collins is now quite impressive.
I seriously doubt whether fumbling will be his longterm downfall. That rarely happens at the pro level. Ball security is one of the few things you can dramatically improve with coaching.
Personally, I'm looking to buy as low as possible everywhere.

I'm guessing completely over hype your next lotto ticket while ignoring all reason and logic again?
You know, you don't have to respond to my posts. Getting a tad creepy...
