Flacco Wants to Throw it Deep Against the Raiders

I'll be the first to tell you that I was practically screaming at my television set, pleading for the Ravens to sling it deep, even amidst the constant pass rush. It was the perfect mismatch, the Broncos had two very suspect safeties, and if a Ravens receiver could get downfield, the results could be disastrous for Denver.

But I didn't get my wish, as the Ravens passing attack was essentially a bunch of cringeworthy dumpoffs. The longest strike of the day was a 22-yard completion to Marlon Brown, and it was the only attempt over 20 yards.
