They simply don't have enough talent on the interior of the line, no matter how much shuffling they do. At best, they can run block decently, but then they are subpar at pass blocking. And regardless of who is in there, they continue to have drive killing penalties. That run Jackson made later in the game should have been a first down- but there was no camera angle to overturn it. So, 3rd and one- no big deal. Except for another untimely false start penalty made it 3rd and 6. This stuff has been happening all season.

But what you just mentioned is one thing that is not unchangeable: those little mistakes, and those little things that have gone wrong. Suppose we finally get our heads together and not do those things...different result. It's like we are a few steps or a few plays away...this Thursday could be telling.

This season is lost now more than likely. If the OL wasn't such a disaster, I think they could overcome the lack of a legit receiver and at least win a few of these games they always seem to lose. Getting Williams and Campbell back would help the suddenly soft run D, although Humphrey and Peters were completely overmatched today by- wait for it- the Titan's BIG, PHYSICAL RECEIVERS.

I think the OL still has time to figure things out. Had a lot of shuffling around (I think today was one of several configurations we've started with this season). That is a chemistry thing...and that can work itself out. And it's not like Lamar isn't getting time to throw...So all it takes is for something Thursday to finally go right and keep us in this thing. We are at the point where one spark--in this case a big win on Thursday, and/or a possible firing of Roman, could make the difference. (Especially given the rest of our schedule)

Jackson will finish out is rookie deal. What happens beyond that remains to be seen. Roman is terrible, and he can go anytime now.The OL has been a mess all season, and the D has gone soft with a few key players out- although they have been a penalty machine all season. Maybe the Ravens have finally figured out that they should have added some weapons for Jackson. They traded Hurst and Boyle is gone for the year, so its glaring now- but it was clear at the end of last season they needed a legit number one receiver who can make a contested catch. Literally every other team has at least one.

Absolutely agree about Roman--he needs to go NOW (hey, we fired an OC late season before, lol)...and I also pretty much agree with ya on our receiver situation. I think the only way this get saved is if Dez steps up and becomes something like a No. 1...

I think the season may come down to Thursday...If we lose then, it's gonna be kinda tough. Not impossible, but tough. Not giving up on them yet...sometimes things click later in the season...you never know.

I hate to say this but i agree with Phin. LJ was beyond horrible today. NO NFL QB should miss that throw to Andrews in the 4th qtr., he was WIDE OPEN. It's just flat out inexcusable. He had Andrews wide open in the end zone for another TD and he threw it way too late. He just looks horrible and has looked that way since the Titans game last year in the playoffs. I think it's time to fire Harbaugh and Roman and draft another QB. 

We're not gonna draft another QB after the current QB had an MVP season...so he's our QB, like it or not. We're not firing Harbaugh either...because the record doesn't warrant it. The thing is...last season still happened. It was less than a year ago. Stable organizations don't fire people or get rid of MVP QBs the year after....so that ain't happening.

Unfortunately I can't take this thread anymore.  Too much ignorance, selfishness and idiotness.  

Idiotness...I'll have to borrow that tense, lol

More often when we go into a healthy Nina it lasts multiple years. 1998/99-2000/01, 2007/8-2008/9, 2010/11-2011/12, 2016/17-2018/19. 

You've got to be kidding me...man I hope we can fluke something somehow this year. Or else we might be looking at a early-mid 70s-style snow drought, smh Life is too short to be waiting 2 additional years for frozen happiness to fall from the sky in a halfway decent manner again. Almost 5 years since 2016...last WSW to verify at BWI. At this rate that would be 7 years if we can't fluke something this year, smh I mean at least you don't have models doing good head fakes this time...not sure that makes it feel better though. 

And why the heck do ninas seem to happen more than ninos??? Seems like ya get like two niños a decade and 4 dang ninas! And the fact that the 2018-19 weak nino "didn't couple" (whatever random chaos caused that) yet the nina is healthier and has absolutely no problem? Figures...lol

Again...here's hoping for a fluke!

The op seems be zeroing in on some sort of precip event around thanksgiving.  Hey it’s something 

Hey look, if we can get .6 of an inch of frozen we'll already have a third of last winter's total...lol

Man, does SSW even exist in the winter anymore? Lol I heard the talk the loudest in the 18/19 winter yet it either never materialized or didn't do jack diddly squat!

Or was that two winters ago? Lol

I know this sounds crazy...but I wouldn't be shocked if there were still MORE storms after this. Maybe a few more name wasters out at sea, and another Western Caribbean hurricane. 

At this point I'm kinda expecting it...lol

Looks like even 2020 is gonna add a historic "I" storm after the fact.

And it doesn't care one Iota that it's November

Good grief!!

Good gloppity what happened?!?! Smh The heck did we go from under 100,000 2 weeks ago to now over 160k...sweet mercy above. I dare not ask where the ceiling is...

Bold prediction: I think we see more than 1.8" (last year's BWI total) before Christmas 

Just a gut feeling...of course it could just be acid reflux, so who knows?

We have a small sunsetter canopy on our front porch supposed to be good to 35 mph winds. It was thrashing and making a lot of really bad sounds, so I just took it down…for the first time since it was installed. It was about to rip the screws out of the house and become a flapping nightmare.

 

I couldn’t remember how to take it down, so was out in the wind and rain struggling with it! It is down now, after getting soaked and falling down once when I finally figured out how to release the two main structure beams and it folded on top of me!

 

I hope my neighbors across the street were not watching! LOL

 

Hahaha I Wwsh there were a neighboring porch camera that caught that...would make an apt illustration for so many things, lol So in that moment you weren't Prospero, but Desprato

Sometimes our advanced NWP technology can be downright depressing.  Decades ago we would have no idea that we were heading into an epic dumpster fire winter.

I have heard it opined on here that something has been out of whack since the historic super El Nino of 2015-16.  Maybe a historic super La Nina will knock us back into whack.

Let's hope, lol

Dang man...just a bad roll of the dice that we roll a nina right after last season's debacle, smh

So we haven't yet officially reached a Category 5?

Any bets we are here in December discussing an active 2020 hurricane?

Even though it's no 2005 or even 1933, this year is easily a top 5 season. Only those years and maybe 1995 edge 2020 out, and with Epsilon, Zeta, and now Eta, is ahead of 2017 for me personally. It could probably pass 1995 depending on how the next 10-15 days play out

Well sheesh I mean...what would it have to be to be akin to 2005 then? Lol

Cosgrove using 2009-10 as an analog for this winter which is a moderate la nina 

09-10 has to be the most abused analog in the history if winter forecasting, smh This has gotten absurd!
