Just watched the game over again and all i can say is what if. Number one thing i saw was how efficient we moved the ball in hurry up offense for 3,4 plays then all of a sudden we huddle up and F things up. whats all your opinions.

I think that was more a product of what the Ravens were allowing.

Don't get me wrong, i think we should have looked at short passes (possibly from the hurry up) for the whole game yesterday. But on those drives late in the second half, with the game pretty much in hand, i think you were just seeing Baltimore ease up a little and the Dolphins capitalize.
 
i agree, i wish we would have attacked them with that style offense from the get go. with the state of our O line it wasn't even worth it to try establishing a run game in the early going
 
this was early in the 3rd when he threw that pick inside the 10. i said i wouldnt be dissapointed if we lost but i was very diss the way we lost. u know i was p offed at chad but came to realize he got us that far if it wasnt for him who knows how many wins we would of had
 
The one if i have is the big one: What if Ginn handles that hand off effectively.

It is an entirely new game at that point and i want to believe that is when the pressure would have gotten to flacco. There offense was unable to move on us their last 2 possessions and i think our D would have made (3) 3 and outs.
 
My only real what if thought is about the Patrick Cobbs fumble. At that point it was 13-3, even if we end up punting, our defense was doing well enough to hold it at 13-3, or maybe 16-3. But the good field position gave the Ravens a TD and made it 20-3.
 
Here are my what if's:

WHAT IF - Somebody would have tackled Ed Reed before going 60 flipping yards to the house...
WHAT IF - Cobbs hadn't have fumbled at the MIA 18 for an easy BAL TD...
WHAT IF - Penn hadn't thrown that pick when we were on the BAL 15 leaving at least 3pts on the table...
WHAT IF - Penn & Ginn hadn't botched that end around, pushing us out of FG range and leaving 3pts on the table...

If those things HADN'T happened, we win 15-13...AND we would have won, losing the turnover battle, 1-3. That would have been fun to see all the NFL guys trying to figure that one out...

i agree wit those ... jus too many what if's .. even tho the ravens have more talent and experience on their team we had a good shot at beatin dem but we took ourselves out of the game and u jus cant win like that
 
what ifs apply to the Ravens as well- except my scenario would have the what-ifs giving the Ravens a 41-0 victory.
 
thats football though. about 6 what if plays a game decide who wins. Atl fans are saying what if we stop that 3rd and 16. Minny fans, what if no 70yd screen pass.
