Cunning Runt Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Not tooting my horn, but I posted this in a discussion about Ray Rice being a low-end #1. Flacco owner here so my take is biased... BUT Baltimore has been airing it out in the preseason so while I think they will be a run-oriented team, I think the ratio of run to pass will be considerably less than you may be hoping for. Now from a PPR aspect, that likely does bode well for Rice. I think they're going to throw a whole lot more this year than in year's past. Only one week so not a fair sampling, but still I do think the preseason plus yesterday is an indication that they're much more comfortable passing than they have been previously and that you'll see it a lot more. Basically, I think you'll see games like this more frequently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delicious_bass Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 As Flacco improves, makes sense they go to a more balanced attack. They've been pretty run oriented in recent years and obviously the more one-dimensional you are on offense the easier you are to stop(generally)...

I thought it would take awhile for them to open up the offense for him but it may be sooner than I thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 So does anybody believe Clayton will every live up to the hype he has gotten in years past? I've seen him on the WW in some leagues but I'd like to see it against someone not named the chiefs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trots Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Clayton is way too inconsistent and injury prone to count on. He'll have an occasional good game but many more 1 catch for 6 yards games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 With the improved O, I wouldn't count on that. I debated dropping Gage for him as my last WR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
