My Ray Rice Blog

Today on our breathless stopping points through the ranks of football professional is the AFC North, or as I like to we call it, Most Wanted America. Ben Roethlisburger Cedric Benson and Pacman Jones, this division is certain at least a criminal weekly, if not more. But, regardless of the less-than-legal off-field actions of this group, it still is my sacred duty to break teams, piece by piece. I am proud to present part 2 of in the NFL. Here's how to decompose the division:

(# x = ranking last year)

(1) Baltimore Ravens 10-6.
Proven: Joe Flacco (# 14), Mark Bulger (# 30)
Running Back: Ray Rice (# 3), Willis McGahee (# 17),
Wide receivers: Derrick Mason (# 23), Anquan Boldin (# 38), Mark Clayton (No. 73)
High end: Todd Heap (n ° 7)
QB protection: # 21
Rush protection: # 4.
Bags (on the opponent): # 20
Run protection: # 1.
The pass protection: # 9.
Key additions: WR Anquan Boldin (# 38), WR Derrick Mason (# 23), QB Mark Bulger (# 30)
Key losses: Justin DT Bannan, DE Dwan Edwards
Notes: Baltimore had quietly the NHL better, that they could hope for, keep all the elements that led them past Patriots and playoff of the divisions.En in addition, they added support essential to the QB and two receivers quality to back Joe Flacco.. .Rice and McGahee is the third best RB combo in the NFL, behind the Caroline Stewart and Williams of Miami Williams and Brown...Hiring of Jim Zorn as QB coach was a fantastic displacement; he helped refine the mechanics of Charlie Batch and Matt Hasselbeck.

(2) Cincinnati Bengals 8-8.
Proven: Carson Palmer (# 15)
Running Back: Cedric Benson (# 14)
Wide receivers: Chad Ochocinco (n ° 15), Andre Caldwell (# 60), Antonio Bryant (No. 66), Terrell Owens (# 70)
High end: Jermaine Gresham (n/A)
QB protection: # 11.
Rush protection: # 22.
Bags (on the opponent): # 18
Run protection: # 7.
The pass protection: # 6.
Key additions: WR Antonio Bryant (No. 66), CB Pacman Jones
Key losses: WR Laveranues Coles (# 44), K Shayne Graham
Notes: This team is remarkably average for a team which made the playoffs last year... teams win being mediocre at all; one facet of this team must stand out, if it is active, passing or defence smashmouth... nobody leave Pacman Jones (vandalism, assault with a deadly weapon, public intoxication) close to Cedric Benson (DWI, self-extinguishing arrest) … is it just me, or are those orange jerseys other research more like jumpsuits prisons? just a thought.

(3) Pittsburgh Steelers 8-8.
Proven: Ben Roethlisburger (n ° 8), Byron Leftwich (# 24)
Running Back: Rashard Mendenhall (# 25)
Wide receivers: Hines Ward (# 9), Mike Wallace (# 16), Antwaan Randle El (# 51)
High end: Heath Miller (n ° 8)
QB protection: # 30
Rush protection: # 18.
Bags (on the opponent): # 3
Run protection: # 5.
The pass protection: # 15.
Key additions: QB Byron Leftwich (# 24), WR Antwaan Randle El (# 51), CB Bryant McFadden
Key losses: WR Santonio Holmes (No. 10), RB Willie Parker (n/A), G Darnell Stapleton
Notes: The legal problems of Roethlisburger Maybe go back to all blows to the head, it takes behind this offensive line AWFUL?... no team lost more this season: Holmes will be unable to replace... with their offensive on the decline as Roethlisburger (for the beginning of the year), the Steelers must return to the form that the their Super Bowl: Blitzburg.... wait the Steelers passing game run set to fail without valid backup (also, as long as the O-line fixed dead parts).

Cleveland Browns 5-11.
Seneca proven: Wallace (# 26), Jake Delhomme (# 33)
Running Back: Jerome Harrison (# 28)
Wide receivers: Chansi Stuckey (# 85), Josh Cribbs (n/a), Mohamed Massaquoi (n/A)
High end: Ben Watson (No. 10), Robert Royal (# 33)
QB protection: # 17.
Rush protection: # 17.
Bags (on the opponent): # 7
Run protection: # 29
The pass protection: # 28
Key additions: QB Jake Delhomme (# 33), Senecas QB Wallace (# 26), and Ben Watson (No.10)
Key losses: QB Derek Anderson (# 42), QB Brady Quinn (# 31), RB Jamal Lewis (# 41)
Notes: When the greatest attention was paid to reviewing upgrade, but wonder: who exactly they will go to?... Ben Watson is the most promising player here, but when was the last time Belichick allow a quality player go?... Jake Delhomme is the largest switch in recent memory, of dissonances offence Carolina to the wreckage of the aircraft are the Browns... I had hopes for Colt McCoy, but it best hope for a trade if he wishes to meet its immense potential as a QB.
