Go Slow With Flacco Baltimore wants Flacco to be their QB of the future. Except the Ravens feel they have no choice but to start him now because Boller and Smith are unavailable. Wrong!
2008 Season Preview: Baltimore Ravens These Ravens won’t be an easy team to beat or a fun team to play, but they’ll be real hard-pressed to win more than they lose. A 7-9 finish will mark what might be the end of the Ray Lewis era in Baltimore.
Ravens Pre-Draft Summit Brian Billick is out and John Harbaugh is in, but will things change for the Ravens in 2008? Could Matt Ryan be their man in the draft?
2007 Season Preview: Baltimore Ravens In the last 4 seasons the Ravens have won 10,9,6, and 13 games. If you ignore the volatility of the last two seasons, you have a team with the talent and track record of a 9 or 10 win team. They've lost of talent in the off-season and also face a difficult schedule.
2007 Draft Review: Baltimore Ravens When you’re as close to the Super Bowl as these Ravens are, and almost all your starters are returning, it’s hard to find glaring weaknesses. Ben Grubbs and Marshall Yanda fill the biggest need, which is youth and physicality up front.

Post-Draft Analysis: Letting Ray Lewis Play 'Freebird' The Ravens didn’t go fancy in this draft, they just went for need.

Ngata is going to free up Ray Lewis more and you know that Baltimore is at their best when Ray Lewis is at his best.
NFL Draft Dissection 2006 – Baltimore Ravens There is still a need for a quarterback in Baltimore, but knowing how stubborn Brian Billick is, even if Jay Cutler is still around at thirteen, the Ravens seem destined to go with at least one more season of Kyle Boller.

Ending Up Quite A Bit Short If you could think of one word to describe the 2005 football season for the Baltimore Ravens it would be dissapointment.
