I am not saying I am not excited. I am. I definitely think we can beat the Chiefs. But there is nothing "different" about the current vibe and the ones we have felt earlier in the year.
I would disagree. That Ravens team had been struggling and barely squeaking by teams. This Chiefs team has been killing people and has been the #1 scoring defense over the past eight weeks.
What feels different is that Burrow seems to be on top of his game instead of still ascending. If his attitude truly permeates the team, it will be different.
I know you just like blowing up narratives, and it is really hard to quantify how a game "feels", but this game....a win today...would be MUCH bigger than beating the Rats in week 7.
