    Default 3rd down rate.

    Last week was 20.0%. Thats just sad, we need to work on that.

    Anyone think Haley was being just a bit conservative on the play calling?

    As long as we just snap the bleeping ball, we'll be allright.

    Not conservative, horrid route running is more likely the cause.

    If Cassel is good to go, perhaps he'll open things up a bit - which will, hopefully, help the running game some. The problem last week was the problem we've had the last three seasons: the O-line.

    I think he was. He has his backup QB in most coaches would be. Hopefuly cassel will play this week and we see the real offense.

    The problem is these lineman need to STEP UP. No BS, just do your job. Block and stick to your man. I don't mean the OL, I am DL as well.

    No pressure on Flacco last week. Even with 8 guys bringing the heat, he had all the time in the world.

    If Croyle is going to play, he need to pull his head out of his butt and figure out this offense. There is no reason for him to call a time out just after the Ravens called a time out. He had 2 mins plus to figure it out. He needs to step up and prove he wants to win.

    I don't if our OL is bad now...as long as I see improvement. Ofcourse the WR need to go deeper. Does Brodie not like Bowe? He only threw to him twice. He threw to Engram a couple of times and Mark Bradley the most.

    If we can put up 24 points against the 5 best D in the leauge, why can't we knock the piss out of Oakland this Sunday?

    I realy think that the Chiefs got desent pressure. The thing is that flacco shocked the chiefs Defenders with how moble he is. Flacco had to scramble alot. He had that one big run. Then on the game winning TD pass he was running around till he found a guy. The chiefs SHOULD be the raiders becuse I think that they are the better team. GO CHIEFS

    Obviously not enough, considering the amount of yards racked up. And completions. They need more pressure to get sacks and force him to throw it away.

    I think Corey Mays in the key in the Raiders game. He will have to pressure Russell and help plug the gaps. Watch McFadden around the end too, the Raiders give up quickly on going up the gut.

    It's really difficult to convert 3rd downs when you're picking up at most 1-2 yards on 1st and 2nd down.
