When you have established that your QB is willing AND ABLE to be you with his legs the defense has to account for him...opening up running lanes...looking good offense...

It feels so weird...its like you are waiting for something bad to happen...lol...keep it up fellas

Between arm strength, speed of WRs, and a run game that makes safeties come up, it looks like we might be able to capitalize on the old Ravens strategy of chuck it deep and hope for PI.

Hal with the pick! Ball at midfield! Texan's ball!

Great interception.

When you score 30 in the first half even a running team like Tennessee will abandon the running game to start chucking it. This is beautiful.

Yeah, Deshaun made a couple of bad reads and bad decisions that last drive. I can live with it.
