-We know Flacco, he is who he is... a decent QB when healthy, but for some reason, atrocious against the Bengals (especially with no Boldin/Steve Smith around to bail him out)
-Dixon, their starting RB, is now injured and missing the next few weeks. I'm not too concerned with their backups.
-WRs, they've got some washed up veterans (what's new), but these ones are worse than the ones they have gotten in the past. Crabtree is meh and John Brown is a deep threat, but that's about it. Oh, and there is Willie Snead, who is pretty good at times, but I have my doubts. He is probably juicing again.
-TEs, we aren't the best at covering them, and hey they drafted ANOTHER 1st round bust TE to add to their collection. Seriously, what is Ozzie Newsome thinking with the TEs they draft, they're garbage. Pretty sure the guy they drafted this year is already injured.
Their defense is pretty good, but they are the same defense that let last years offense take care of them with a chance to go to the playoffs. This offense has only gotten better since then. I don't think we will be completely shut down.
Last week doesn't speak to the Ravens being any good, it speaks to the terribleness of the Bills. I am excited to take it to the Ravens and take a lead atop the North.
So there ya go, have some faith, the Ravens aren't world beaters.
No doubt the Ratbirds are not world beaters and you make a lot of good points. Wouldn't say they suck though.
But who knows? If we help out Hart at RT like we did in the 2nd half against the Colts we could stomp them.
This is one hell of a pass rush we have and i think they are frustrated they didn't get more sacks and shots on
Luck. Flaccid could get really flustered and end up throwing a few picks after we hit him enough. Heard their
Secondary is a little banged up too. The closer to the game i think i made a mistake picking them to win but still
it is Primetime, really the main thing they got going for them.
I just need to see this team perform well in Primetime once, then i will believe that we can.
