Time to stop pretending players like Roquan Smith and Marlon Humphrey are any good anymore. So far Minter the 'defensive genius' doesnt seem to have many answers.

Feel like the Ravens have been able to avoid a complete rebuild in part because of Lamars contract. But the time is nearing. If your success is going to ride on a now injury prone franchise qb someone has tough decisions to make.

Wow, another Browns game winning drive.

They got away with a false start on that last pass play.

You know, if Lamar doesn't resign with the Ravens that's fine. It might be time to tear it down to the studs and rebuild.

I am starting to lean in that direction. He is more injury prone as he gets older, and this team obv lacks talent, and it cant be fixed overnight. If they commit to him long term, this team will probably continue to be 'in the mix', but not good enough. EDC is no Ozzie Newsome. Sashi Brown also seems sus.

If you commit to Lamar you can fix the issues around him in a year...two at the most. Heck, this defense is two pieces and months of therapy away from being good enough. The mental problem is bigger than the talent issue.

2) You don't jettison your franchise QB at 30 and just magically find another one. Even if he misses 3 games a year, you still have a better chance of getting a ring with him than without him. If he can throw whatever mobility he maintains will be a plus but not absolutely necessary.

Why are folks acting like he's not under contract next year? Lol

Talking about beyond that dude. This team has a lot that needs fixing, and the contract he will demand will limit the ability to do that. Do you really want to see the likes of Marlon Humphrey as a starter for another year or 2? He is total shit now. How about the OL? Its a fucking mess. Lamar will continue to get hurt and miss games.
