Baltimore Ravens Quarterly Stock Report
Since the Baltimore Ravens are a nearly $2 billion business, the franchise deserves a quarterly stock report. Yes, I know the Ravens are not a publicly traded business, but do fans not have emotional stock invested in the team? So after four games, a quarter of the...
Ravens: Can’t Waller stretch the field?
Let’s cut to the chase. The Ravens are 0-3. It’s back to the drawing board as the season is quickly spiraling towards “over”, before it’s even really started. To put things another way, the Ravens have to go 11-2 for the remainder of the season to essentially...
