I'm hoping that even when Sony Michel comes back they stick with Damien Harris as the 1A of the 3 headed backfield. He's looked pretty good thus far and in my deeper leagues I'm very happy with the production I've been getting from him

Remember how great people said Lamar was as a passer and you look back and he only threw for 3100 yards last year lmao.

I feel really bad for Harry. No doubt he hasn’t looked that good but I also think they’re trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. You see guys cleaning up all over the league and they’re just running crossing routes, guys like Robbie Anderson and Corey Davis. Use him like those guys!

Man, this Ravens team is losing players left and right. I wouldn't expect anything to get better for anyone this year. This team isn't going far either

I'd argue that Jackson has a competent group of weapons. Brown, Andrews, Dobbins, Ingram. They could use a bigger WR on the outside though.

The problem right now though is that Jackson hasn't been very good and looks like he's regressed as a passer.
On how many teams is Marquise Brown the WR1? Dobbins is talented but he hasn’t realized his potential at this point. Mark Andrews is a good player but his fantasy value comes from being one of the only competent pass catchers on this offense.

I won't speak to NE but I'd consider JAX, NYJ, IND?, HOU? worse than Baltimores RB, Andrews and Brown.

So not many
Indy at least has an allegedly good line- this Baltimore group does not look good without Yanda and Staley. Washington and the current Philly and San Francisco bleep-shows are the ones I would add, and I also think Houston’s group is better than Baltimore’s.

We’re splitting hairs- there’s not a ton to work with for either of these guys. These are two bottom quartile units. I’d also add that Baltimore’s play-calling has been boring and predictable. I have some optimism for their list of stretch run defenses, but with the line looking this bad and the playcalling this bland, that optimism isn’t as bright as it was a few weeks ago.

Oh yeah splitting hairs for sure, philly has a better line and getting healthier. Sanders is a better RB and then I'd argue the pass catchers of Philly are overall better. SF is a mess but I just didn't include them because they're so banged up, but Baltimore is getting there. It's not good

Is it just me or does it downpour every time the ravens have the ball and when the pats have the ball it's a slow drizzle.

Can we put any blame on Greg Roman? He's essentially running his Kaepernick offense which has always had low completion percentages and ranked near last in pass attempts.

Last 8 seasons including this one Roman offenses have ranked 31st, 31st, 32nd, 29th, 31st, 32nd, 32nd and 31st in pass attempts.

Of course it took a historic rushing season to break free from the chains of a Roman offense.

I think almost all the blame goes on him. The playcalling is so stale. The Pats were literally rushing 2 at one point towards the end. The lack of receiving weapons and the weak Oline dont help, but this offense isn't built to come from behind, at all

He doesn't look great but Hollywood isn't getting much separation at all. He gets bumped off routes way too easily. If he was a bit bigger some of those bumps might be interference but he's so small it doesn't take much
I knew the guy was small, but when I saw him next to Jackson on that INT I was shocked haha. He looked like a high school player

I think at Oklahoma he was 150-160lbs... He bulked up quite a bit this offseason(supposedly 180s) but I dont know if he's able to maintain it

If your QB can't beat teams from the pocket consistently it is only a matter of time before that gets exposed and exploited in the NFL. The OC is hamstrung because his QB can't work outside the hashes. You think the Ravens offense looks bad now, but it would look way worse if you let Lamar drop back and try and throw it 50 times.

Shanny-like coach could better scheme for him than Roman imo.... Lamar could use 5-10 Jimmy-Gimmes a game and you could get Hollywood involved easier
