In fact if we pull 2 wins out of the final 5 it will be a minor miracle. I hear people saying how bad the Ravens offense is, guess they are ignoring our stats ? And the Ravens D is much better than ours !
I think many peeps are putting way to much stock into us beating a 0-10 team last week.

The Bengals running game hasn't exactly been anything to write home about before the Browns game.
Week 11 @ DEN - 49 total rushing yards
Week 10 @ TEN - 53 total rushing yards
Week 9 @ JAX - 29 total rushing yards
Week 8 vs Colts - 58 total rushing yards
And you might say well the Bengals have been passing a lot better, which is true, but the Ravens defense is 2nd in the league with 189.9 passing YPG and 2nd in PPG.
And a HUGE problem with the Bengals prior to last week was also TOP.
Bengals will need to win TOP to beat the Ravens. Simple as that.
I actually hope you guys are right and we either lose out or just pull one game off just so Marv and PA are gone.
You guys are missing the part on why we sucked so bad in the running game though. It was that Zone Blocking Scheme
that made it impossible for the O-line to gain any confidence cause it was so passive. They changed it up to a Directional
Blocking Scheme in the last game and it was easy to see the difference.
Don't give me it was just the Browns shit. There were tons of people on here picking us to lose that game. The Browns
are one of the toughest run stopping teams in the NFL and got their two best run stoppers back in this game they didn't
have the first game we played them.
Also have to add that our Defense should improve with the young guys like Billings, Will Jax, Willis, Dennard, Fej, Evans
getting more snaps and experience. I expect us to win atleast 3 games out of the 5. The Steelers on Monday night is a
loss, we all know it but the only really good team we face after that is the Vikings in my opinion. Have not been impressed
with the other 3 at all this season.
