As those of you who read OTR religiously know, Baltimore Ravens LB Terrell Suggs tore his Achilles tendon recently. Okay, so we never mentioned that, but you’re not a religious OTR reader anyway, so you wouldn’t know. So yeah, Suggs tore his Achilles recently and will have to have surgery to repair it. That usually [...]
The Baltimore Ravens traded for Lee Evans last year to help them stretch the field. He didn’t stretch much of anything all season because he was battling a busted foot and rarely saw any action. Now, it seems that the Jacksonville Jaguars are willing to roll the dice and bet that his terrible season was [...]
The Baltimore Ravens lost the AFC Championship game on Sunday in heartbreaking fashion to the New England Patriots. Down by just three points, Lee Evans dropped a game-winning TD pass and then kicker Billy Cundiff blew a 32-yard field goal. So, one could imagine that guys like Terrell Suggs might not be in the best [...]
The Baltimore Ravens looked to make it four wins in a row last night in Jacksonville, facing a Jaguars team that by most accounts stinks. But, no one could have seen this coming. The Ravens didn’t even get a first down until the third quarter. You read that right. It was abysmal. They couldn’t do [...]
The Baltimore Ravens’ offense didn’t look so hot Thursday night against the Philadelphia Eagles. After losing Todd Heap and Derrick Mason, Anquan Boldin is their only real outside threat in the passing game. Rookie Torrey Smith didn’t look ready to be an NFL starter, as Nnamdi Asomugha had his way with him in coverage. The [...]
The Baltimore Ravens just refuse to let Ray Rice be the lone feature back and rack up fantasy points. Before it was Willis McGahee pilfering touches and goal like carries, now, it will be Ricky Williams. A league source tells PFT that the Ravens have signed Williams to a two-year deal worth up to $4 [...]
The Baltimore Ravens aren’t wasting any time. With the NFL lockout essentially over, the Ravens have decided to do some house cleaning. A couple writers on Twitter have said that the Ravens have informed Todd Heap, Kelly Gregg and Willis McGahee that they will be released. We aren’t sure how much the Heap move will [...]
There has been a lot of talk this offseason (maybe too much talk) about where Marc Bulger could end up next season. People keep talking about teams that need QB’s and how Bulger could be desirable to them. That latest is Jason La Canfora of NFL Network, who says to keep an eye on the [...]
It can be very difficult to look at the statistics of cornerbacks in the NFL and be able to tell who is really good and who is not so good. Some people see a lot of interceptions and think a player is really good, even though it could be that there is a reason balls [...]
An NFL source tells Mike Preston of the Baltimore Sun that the Baltimore Ravens will be cutting backup running back Willis McGahee when a new CBA is reached. At $3.6 million last year, he was a nice backup to Ray Rice. But, he’s scheduled to make $6 million this year, and that ain’t happening. When [...]
The Baltimore Ravens recently sent QB coach Jim Zorn packing to the door that didn’t hit him in the butt. The theory that’s been leaking out is that the Ravens felt that it could be a situation with him where eventually it’s too many chefs. Regardless of why he was booted, Joe Flacco doesn’t appreciate [...]
This isn’t good. According to WWLTV, the brother of Baltimore Ravens safety Ed Reed has gone missing after jumping into the Mississippi River Friday night in an attempt to avoid police. Deputies say that they saw Brian Reed go under the surface, never to reappear. “The suspect jumped into the river, went about 15 feet [...]
Baltimore Ravens LB Terrell Suggs had a conference call with Pittsburgh reports recently and he had some great quotes. We want to hang out with this guy. T-Sizzle said that the NFL favors the likes of Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, while not caring too much about anyone else. “The league has their favorites,” Suggs [...]
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello told TampaBay.com that the NFL is “looking into” an incident that occurred between Tampa Bay Bucanneers cornerback Aqib Talib and a game official. Talib was apparently upset about a pass interference call on Myron Lewis that led to a Baltimore Ravens touchdown just before the half. The best part about this [...]
We mentioned before about Miami Dolphins LB Channing Crowder getting mad and saying something to the effect of Anne Frank being able to see that Baltimore Ravens FB Le’Ron McClain spit on him. Even though, you know, Frank wasn’t blind (but if she was, her penmanship was amazing). However, that doesn’t mean that Crowder doesn’t [...]
Is Channing Crowder even any good? We seem to hear a lot of mouth from the Miami Dolphins LB, but we rarely hear about his play on the field. He appears to be all talk, and Derrick Mason would agree. What is clear is that he doesn’t come off as extremely intelligent, and this must [...]
The Buffalo Bills are by all accounts, not a very good team. Despite the fact that they went into Baltimore yesterday and gave the Ravens all they could handle, they are still not even considered decent. So, when you have a team that’s this bad and you were a first-round pick last year and still [...]
Seattle Seahawks (+6.5) over Chicago Bears Two teams have never controlled their own destiny this early in a season more than the Chicago Bears and Seattle Seahawks. If either team wins out, they will win their respective divisions, which makes this Week Six match-up OTR’s Featured Game Of The Week. Unfortunately, for the Seahawks, Sunday’s [...]
I was a scorching 1-for-4 last week, and you just don’t see that kind of production from most websites. This week has some tough matchups (I truthfully haven’t even looked yet) so let’s get right to the picking for Week 5 in the NFL. Denver Broncos at Baltimore Ravens (-7) This is going to be [...]
It feels like the NFL just started, but after this week 25 percent of the season will be done. In a blink of an eye we’ll be a quarter of the way through. So, before anything else flashes by, let’s get right into this weeks picks. Houston Texans (-3) over Oakland Raiders What a disappointing [...]
As I’ve mentioned before, OTR’s predictions for sports events are different than other sites, because we’ve never ever been wrong. Whether it’s a mock draft or just a regular season game, we are always 100% spot on. How many can say that? So, with that in mind, let’s take a look a couple of the [...]
The Baltimore Ravens and WR T.J. Housmandzadeh have agreed to a one-year, $855,000 contract, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, who also writes for ESPN and talks about football on the ESPN television network. “Ravens reached agreement with former Seahawks wide receiver TJ Houshmandzadeh on a one-year, $855,000 deal. More at espn.com,” Schefter tweets. Ok, Seattle [...]
We mentioned earlier today that Baltimore Ravens rookie Sergio Kindle would miss training camp after he fractured his skull falling down two flights of stairs. Well, it could be worse. Jason La Canfora said on NFL Network’s Total Access that Kindle could end up missing his entire rookie season. At the very least, La Canfora [...]
You may have heard that Baltimore Ravens rookie Sergio Kindle fell down two flights of stairs recently and busted his head up pretty good. Well, not it looks like a fractured skull and they are saying that he’s going to miss all of training camp, according to Aaron Wilson of the Carroll County Times. “Harbaugh [...]
We noted yesterday that Baltimore Ravens starting QB Joe Flacco didn’t seem all that jazzed about the addition of QB Marc Bulger. He seemed like he would have preferred to just keep Troy Smith and John Beck. Now, safety Ed Reed is essentially saying the same thing. In an interview with 105.7 FM, Reed said [...]
