Tough loss for sure but the Ravens exceeded expectations with how shitty their secondary was this season. Matt Elam is terrible. Tons of physical ability but lacks it between the ears. His football I.Q. is not very high. Time to cut ties with him and move Ladarius Webb to the FS position. When Jimmy Smith went down less then half way through the season, my first thought was 'we're fucked'. The kid is an absolute stud but he can't stay healthy to save his life.
This was not one of Baltimore's better teams in 2014. I hope we can keep Kubiak because Flacco set career numbers and had his best season, statistically. The front seven looks great heading into next year. Suggs and Dumervill were awesome for most of the season. C. J. Mosely is the TRUTH. That kid can flat out play.
I would not mind it all if Ngata is not a Raven next season. Timmy Jernigan looks like he's going to be a monster in the middle and a future star. Only 22 years old.
So...decent season and the Ravens are on the rise and will contend in the future. Ozzie Newsome knows what he's doing. Also, it's a nice feather in your cap when your team is able to knock your arch rival out of the playoffs.
