I don't know? Will this be the year that Boller doesn't suck quite as much?

"'Heap'ing" it on... From a LOCAL source on "The REAL Feed":

Heap, Ravens agree on six-year extension
SunSpot.net - Sports (14.06.2005 12:30)

From another source on "The REAL Feed", offseason news about Boller worth taking a look at:

Emerging quarterback Boller assumes 'total control' of Ravens' offence
FaceOff: Football (14.06.2005 17:23)
OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) - The Baltimore Ravens have waited patiently for Kyle Boller to take charge of the offence and justify his stature as the 19th overall pick in the 2003 NFL draft.

Really,... it's not a big deal. BUT, it sure sounds scary/titulating (depending on which side of the coin your on) when you first glance at the headline, huh?

...i believe i wrote on this same subject some time last year - of all positions on the field, the one that requires the least amount of practice time - don't get me wrong- practice is important- is veteran runningback...if anything he's gonna get tired when he comes back because there won't be 11 !@#$ people in the box waiting for him...he's still my keeper this year and a legitimate 1st round pick...and he's still gonna ROCK

y'know, i've never thought that anthony wright was all that bad - every time i've seen him play he looked better than boller...what're the odds that if boller comes out of the blocks SUCKIN' (

) that he gets the hook & wright becomes a star with all that talent around him???
maybe it's time the coaching staff does what shannahan did and admits - maybe we made a mistake...

C'mon... Boller played relatively well last year with a run-oriented offense and no wideouts to throw to. Let's at least give him a chance with the likes of Mason and Clayton out there.

I like Boller's upside, but must admit Wright has always looked a little better (albiet against the 2nd team D in preseason for what's that worth). Billick loves him (Boller)

and will give him every benefit of the doubt.

I heard Billicks press interview this week and it was funny. He went off on the Baltimore Ravens fans for booing Boller and challenged them to make a lot of noise this week when Peyton tries to call plays at the line. Funny stuff.

Do not bench Jamal. Go with the "always play your studs" theory on this one. Disclaimer: I am not espousing this as an "absolute" rule of thumb. I just think it is the rule to follow in this specific case. Good luck!
