1) I went over this philosophy in a story in the spring, and it holds here: This is a place where training camp is still training camp. The way the Ravens see it, the 2011 death of old-school two-a-days is no reason to scale back on work, so on Thursday (as will be the case on lots of other days) Baltimore staged a three-hour practice. And the coaches have devised a scoring system, too, to pit the offense vs. the defense on a constant basis, to keep the competitive level at its highest. A byproduct of all of this is forcing players to stay focused and locked in athletically for a longer period of time, which, the belief goes, should prepare them for games. It also tests them, and Harbaugh explained to me that he believes the players should want to get as much work in as possible. Really, that's part of the mold of what he and Ozzie Newsome are looking for. "We work hard. We work hard," he said. "We work smart. I think we're really creative. And we do the important things, I think. But everybody thinks they do that, you know?"
