Rosburg: No advice for Reed

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 07:00:00 -0500

Ravens special teams coordinator Jerry Rosburg was as amazed as everyone else that Mitch Berger's second punt of the game got past rushing Ed Reed last week. Reed came from the outside and was in the air when Berger seemingly launched the punt UNDERNEATH Reed. "I'm not exactly sure where it went," Rosburg said this week. "I think Harbs [John Harbaugh] said it well: 'We think the ball actually vaporized and went through his body and came out the other side, becaus...

How To Beat The Cincinnati Bengals This Time

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 09:20:39 -0500

Perhaps rather than wasting my time as well as yours, I should just copy the same story I posted in week five when we played each other in Baltimore. In that post I said: Do what do the Ravens need to do on both sides of the ball to win this battle for first place of the division? Not much, just "play like a Raven" pretty much sums it up. Let the offense continue to move the ball, but put a little more emphasis on the run game than they did in New England, where they showed t...

Bengals Banter: Power Rankings, and the Bengals Actually Play This Week

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 08:00:22 -0500

by Nick Wass - AP Ed Reed is upset because his team is going to lose to our favorite team this week. Again. (AP Photo/Nick Wass) View full size photo » So after a week off and me completely forgetting that it's football season (and potentially getting my first real job!), the Bengals are actually doing something this weekend, so I have something interesting to do for you guys on Wednesday morning. Without further...

It's just my opinion, but...

Fri, 23 Oct 2009 09:11:06 -0500

...I still think the Ravens 3-3 record is an aberration and they will rebound in a big way, starting next week. ...I thought the Broncos were for real a couple of weeks ago, when I picked them to beat the Cowboys and Patriots in Denver. ...if they can do that on the road, then I'll be fully on their bandwagon. ...the Ravens defensive backs will suddenly get a lot better once we figure how to make the opposing QB's throw in less then seven seconds for a change. ...didn't Ed...

Play Like a Raven – Week 5

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 14:04:46 -0500

Played Like a Raven – Ed Reed This one was a bit of a toss up between Reed and Ray Rice, who seemed like practically the only two Ravens trying to win the game. However, I’m gonna give the nod to Reed, as he accounted for half of the Ravens’ “offensive” output on the day, [...]

Ed Reed's pick six

Sun, 11 Oct 2009 12:45:09 -0500

The Ravens defense set Carson Palmer up by over-stacking the left side and Ed Reed streaked in front of Chad Ochocinco to pick off the ball and sprint all the way home. It was Reed's sixth career interception return for a touchdown. He is the franchise leader in that department. Oh, and by the way, I'm starting to like the 8 1/2 points again.

Lewis, Reed Avoid Fines

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 18:01:22 -0500

Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis and Safety Ed Reed will not be fined for their post-game remarks criticizing the officials in the team’s 27-21 loss to the Patriots. Read more here. Quite a surprise, actually. Lewis in particular just went off on the officials in the game. But in reality, both players were criticizing the league’s recent [...]

Ed Reed: "I'm as ready as I'm going to be"

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 12:23:46 -0500

Ravens safety Ed Reed said the nerve impingement in his neck and shoulder continues to have an affect on the way he plays. Reed has been dealing with this injury for over a year. Asked about his health, he said Wednesday, "I’m as ready as I’m going to be. I still take precautions and try to play smart. I try not to really worry about it as much, and let my mind focus on what we have to do."

Happy New Year!!

Mon, 05 Jan 2009 10:30:22 -0500

YB! What's good? I hope everyone has gotten off to a GREAT start to the new year!?

How was New Years Eve? Normally, I'm against it, because everything gets all built up to be the best night ever, and it usually ends up being wack. So, I don't get my hopes up much! But, this year was different! We went up to Hollywood and hit Eva Longoria's party at Beso, and had a lot of fun. A few of my buddies from out of town came in town to go, so it was a good night.

It was definitely a chill and productive weekend. Everyone left town early Friday morning, so I've actually been kicking it around the place doing work, and playing a lot of basketball. Been nice to not have anyone around for a few days, really able to get some things accomplished and get my life organized heading in to the new year.?

Brett (roommate) headed down to Nicaragua to do some work for his charity, so I'm excited to hear how that goes and see some amazing pictures I'm sure. I was actually supposed to make the trip with him, but because of this movie project I'm working on, I wasn't able to go. He'll be making another trip in March, and I'm definitely going to try and hop on that one.?

Weird how fast time is going by. The season is right around the corner! I couldn't be more excited. ?Working out with the trainer every morning definitely gets a bit monotonous, but its' worth it when you step on the field and you know you've put the time in.?

I've seen a bunch of movies recently (as usual). I thought Yes Man was absolutely hilarious. I feel like Jim Carrey will always be funny man. Same dumb faces, same dumb humor, but it definitely doesn't get old. It's definitely worth checking out.?

Catch the Ravens yesterday? Ed Reed is ridiculous man, always entertaining to watch. Cat makes play after play, and he makes it all look easy. Out of control how athletic that guy is. Who is winning the Super Bowl? Clearly, I'm a big Ravens fan being from Baltimore, but I don't think I have watched enough this season to make an educated prediction. What do you all think??

That's about it for now. Time to get a little work done and get this week started right! There was a a small get together the night before NYE at the same place Beso, so we went up for a little. Here's a picture of Brett, Joe and I before heading out!

Talk to you guys soon!
