YEs and it gets depressing when even Ike gets hurt. He has been the Iron Man of this outfit.

It's breaks his current streak of 135 straight games played. Crazy.

Cortez seems more smooth to me. Like he can get turned around recover better. Probably cuz Ike is a failrly large CB. Either way Ike is getting up there in age and Cortez I hope is the future!

I really like Cortez. The biggest play that stood out to me in the Ravens game was when he got beat but still recovered and almost picked off the pass intended for Smith in the endzone. He is a great athlete and has mad potential.

While it was a nice play, the reason he "recovered" was because of a horribly underthrown ball by Mr. Elite. If he leads Smith, it would've been 6. Luckily Flacco is awful.

You mean Joe Flacco isn't the best QB in the NFL like he claims?....lol

Very good point, but you still have to give Cortez credit for not giving up on the play.

No doubt, hence the "while it was a nice play" lol.

The other play I liked was the play where he was called for PI. Even though it was a penalty, it saved the Ravens from getting 7 on that drive. They ended up with 3, huge play in the game.
