Demetrius Williams Has a Mohawk
Alas, no pic. He’s not quite at Clubber Lang status, but he’s looking…interesting.
It’s rare for a fourth exhibition game to have any kind of compelling storyline, but when a team has quarterback issues like the Ravens do, intrigue remains.
I’m going to go out on a limb here: Joe Flacco will get the starting nod against Cincy.
Justin will wrap this game up proper-like, but if you’re inclined to chime in before then, here’s your thread.
Programming Note: I think that when the regular season comes I’ll do what I’ve done in the past, which is write up a “Sunday NFL Open Thread” and let it serve as a catch-all for all the storylines of the day. Is that cool with everyone?
I still think Troy Heismith gets that first start, unless he’s still “sick.” Only because even though it wasnt said, i think this whole time it was troy’s job to lose. We, and harbaugh knows where kyle stands, and we know Joe isnt quite ready yet. Joe hasnt shown enough in his 6+ quarters of play to show he deserves it. troy shouldnt lose the starting job because of illness if he’s healthy.
On the flip side, Joe has taken a majority of the snaps this preseaon, and troy hasnt looked that good. in the 2 full quraters of the Minnesota game he played he attempted only 5 passes. So he’s hesitant in pulling the trigger=losing confidence in your wideouts.
Troy’s atleast mobile, which we need with the shoddy O-line.
My idea, cut Boller, sign Vinny Testeverde. He becomes the oldest QB to win a super bowl.
I was against Flacco starting the season but uh… yeah, that changed about 3 days ago. If he starts, let’s just hope they don’t expect him to not make mistakes. If they just let him play without a lot of pressure, he won’t turn into Boller.
Go get ‘em, kid.
