Wasn't much fun. Being Baltimore's offensive line coach hasn't been much fun lately. For the second straight week, the Ravens played without three regular starters on the O-line, including Pro Bowl tackle Jonathan Ogden. Injuries have left Baltimore with three second-year pros starting on the line, and they didn't distinguish themselves Sunday. Baltimore had just 176 yards, and only 22 of those came from its 16 rushing attempts.
Injuries are no excuse.
That's no excuse for anybody. This win's not earth-shattering or anything, but it's good for us. It makes for a merry Christmas. Christmas will mark two days until Ferentz is free to coach the Hawkeyes full-time. Baltimore closes its season next Sunday at home against Detroit.
