Todd Monken was such a home run hire. And that perfect, rare situation where he that good his first 2 years and we're lucky enough to get a 3rd. The defense is improved, too. This team is going all the way this year. I really believe that

And also doesn't seem terribly interested in being a head coach at his age. Don't forget he just signed a contract extension.

I was going to reference the Orioles too.  I am staying up watching west coast games so that shows how much I am lost.  

God bless ya

Let me update my answer.

If the Ravens start 3-3 they should count themselves lucky.

6-0 is the expectation. I don't care who we're playing. The Ravens are considered one of the best teams in the league and will only be slight underdogs in any of those games because of the homefield disadvantage.

5-1 or 4-2 are acceptable because it's the NFL and it's hard to win every game even if you're the better team.

3-3 and things are going bad. The season is not over but we are no longer the juggernaut we thought we were. There's plenty of time to turn it around but they would almost have to run the table to meet preseason expectations record wise.

I still stand by this but 3-3 might not be too bad right now. We have now fallen below expectations but there's plenty of season left to turn it around.

I would've been happy starting 3-3. First month was a brutal grind with BUF, DET, KC. Hopefully they can take care of business against Houston and LA.

The Ravens are missing a legit edge rusher to disrupt the opposition. Aiden Hutchinson was eating Lamar's lunch all damn game. 

[BaltBird 24]

It's only game 3 for Mike Green, but I hope he's not another edge bust. EDC has missed a lot on pass rushers.

3-3 looks great right now since 1-3 is virtually a given at this point.

I wonder how many snaps he's playing each game?

[NewMarketSean]

3-3 is the best case scenario at this point.

[BSLMikeLowe]

2-4 looks to be the outcome here.

[Mackus]

Let's not forget about 0-6, that's possible too

0-6 and we remove the spleen?

[85Knight]

It's a good thing this division stinks. 9-8 will probably get it done.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Have to win the next two and get healthy over the bye.

Who is available next week?

Lamar, Roquan, Marlon, and Ronnie all leaving with injuries today on top of rhe other injuries.

Honestly, and I'm saying this with a clear head and without overwhelming negativity, I think their season is on the brink. Lamar is hurt, it seems like almost their entire front seven is hurt. They have shown they don't have what it takes to run with the big boys in the NFL, and both their offense and defense is kind of a mess. This may just be one of those throwaway years where nothing goes right and they have to flush it and try again

Thanks for chiming in!

I still stand by this. The problem is we still need to win the next 2.

[makoman]

I said 3-3 is not ideal but fine, and I stand by that in general, but the injuries have me worried. Even if Lamar is fine both lines suck.

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Is Lamar healthy?

And still it comes back to the 2nd post in the thread and the only question that matters
