I feel like Pollack and Austin will have a plan to counter the weakness of the offensive line. I saw that in week 1 where they had Mixon up near the line with Dalton in shotgun. I don't think they'll be that obvious all the time, but even having Mixon check before he releases or maybe sliding protection for double teams doesn't seem out of the question.
I think their offensive line is weak, so we can just score early, force them to play catchup, and just feast on them trying to throw the ball on us. Force them to make mistakes and just capitalize. Establish Mixon on the ground and open up the deep ball with AJ and Ross. Get the crowd fired up and excited....... make it difficult on the Ravens to communicate.
This team will come fired up to play!
BRING THE NOISE!
Bengals- 27
Ravens- 14
They did adjust well in the 2nd half and that scene in the locker room after the game looked different than Marv
in the past. He just seems more fired up this season, the entire team does. Could be something special and you
could be right and we beat on the Ravens. I think it will be close though.
Both teams are much better than last season, but the Ravens aren't playing against Peterman this game either.

Don't forget our head coach basically quit the week before. I'm not saying the Bengals will win but it's not a lock for the Ravens just because they destroyed the Bills.
23-17 Bengals
This very well could happen too, we always match up good against the Ravens.
I just need to see us win in Primetime before i believe we can do it.
It definately is not a lock for the Ravens to win though. Great points about Eifert, Ross and moving on from our shitty
Lineman. Hart is still our big weakness though and the Ravens have much better pass rushers than the Colts.
I think it will depend on the pressure both D-line's create and turnovers. Should be a close game but if our guys can
protect, namely Hart i think we win. Just don't trust Hart.
