Nobody is picking us to win

They are underdogs to a hated division rival who is winless and whom we have a winning streak against. The opposing coach has made condescending comments to media, blatently trying to puff up our egos going into the game. There are power rankings out there with the Steelers rated ahead of us, although their one win was a gimme at home. The Ravens are being picked to win by everybody not named Pete Prisco.

The next five games are brutal, and I think we need to go 3-2 at least to be where we want to be. Baltimore has got to be very confident going into their home opener. But it's like Mike Tyson said: Everyone's got a plan until they get punched in the mouth. Well it's time to do just that.

Let Geno loose this game. Send him up the middle and wreck the passing game early, so that they have no attempt to establish rhythm on offense.

Run power with an irate Jeremy Hill. Let him run all over the field ripping up a Suggs-less defense. Bomb it to A.J. Green when they least expect it.

Now's the time to put out foot on the throats of our division foes. I can see Pitt losing to St. Louis and the Browns are always capable of losing any week. 3-0 is a good start, but we have a tough schedule ahead. If being an underdog to a winless division rivals while looking impressive at 2-0 yourselves isn't motivation then I don't know what is.

Don't let us down this week boys. I ***** hate the Ravens.

I was listening to some guy with the Ravens,it was on the inside the jungle podcast,who said they were having problems at OG,so Atkins should be able to  have a good game.
