Welcome to the Daily Caw, where we round up all the latest Ravens news and notes from around the web. Today we round up the latest injury carnage following a bad loss to the Texans, possible Ravens playoff scenarios, Steve Smith doesn’t like us, Joe Flacco had a bad game at the worst possible time, and where did the pass rush go?
The Ravens lost both the game and control of their playoff destiny yesterday, but still have a shot at a wild card spot as a 5 or 6 seed in the AFC. Either way, they must beat the Browns next Sunday. If they do that, and the Bengals either tonight or next week coupled with a Chiefs victory over the Chargers, the Ravens are in. They can also get in if the Bengals lose out, even if the Chargers win.
The injuries kept piling up for the Ravens this week, this time ravaging the offensive line. Eugene Monroe left the game and was seen afterwards with a boot on his foot, and Rick Wagner departed with a limp as well.

Steve Smith Lashes out Following Game
Smith was obviously not happy after yesterday’s loss, even going so far as to lash out at a reporter and take shots at “fat, lazy, couch quarterbacks.”
Joe Flacco has Worst Game at Worst Time
In a game that the Ravens really needed to win, and really should have won, Flacco laid an egg and had one of the worst games of his career.
After posting a pair of dominant efforts, the pass rush was nowhere to be found on Sunday.
