Overcast skies greeted the fans that came out to McDaniel College this morning. As many as 1,500 showed up in hopes of catching some great plays. Little did they know, their hopes should have pointed more toward the sky.
The players came out today appearing to be in a rather chipper mood, hooting and howling as they went through their various positional drills.
Kelly Gregg was back in pads and in action while Daniel Wilcox and Antwan Barnes (who sprained his ankle yesterday) watched practice in shorts and shirts on the sidle lines. Both players did light workouts and appeared to be close to ready to go.
As each unit split up and went over various drills and formations, the Ravens coaches made sure to jump on the slightest error or inconsistency in the formations. Some coaches might be happy that a play turned out positive, whether it is a successful pass or a tackle for a loss.
However, Brian Billick and Rex Ryan are not your ordinary coaches. Each day they have gone over every detail of a certain formation or a particular play, not just what each player should do, but perhaps more importantly, why the action must be done a certain way.
Today was no different for the team except for one small detail, and that was that it had to be perfect.
