Not sure if he will be on a hot seat entering year two, but if it starts poorly, the temperature will surely rise.

But yesterday's game was three hours of blecch. Not exactly what the fans were hoping for, but still a win is a win and somehow the Ravens will avoid the Indianapolis Colts in the first round. That said, the level of play will have to be considerably better if this team is to make a long playoff run.

I'd like to see another 3 wins or so. It’s a good story, but he still has made some questionable decisions. I’d like to see another 3 wins or so.

Ralph Friedgen is going to get some Coach of the Year votes after this one, particularly if they continue to win. Great season for the Terps…after last season’s debacle.

I, like all O's fans, was disappointed. But the great thing is we play again tonight. A win can wipe the opening day disappointment out of my memory.

]]> Comment on Will Reed, Mason retire? by Toby http://jeffwolfsonsports.com/2010/01/18/will-reed-mason-retire/#comment-37 Toby Wed, 20 Jan 2010 07:25:19 +0000 http://www.tailgate365.com/jeffwolfson/?p=472#comment-37 I hope Reed doesn't retire - he is by far one of the most phenomenal and athletic players I have ever seen in the NFL. He does however have to consider his health and would fully understand if he steps down now. If he returns - amen. If not, then he will go down as one of the best ever.

Like you say though, he's been battling injuries and it's a risk every time he takes the field. It's up to him to calculate that risk and weigh it against playing vs. life after football.
