We have the potential to beat these guys. But a lot of things will have to be different this week to get it done:
Offensive line will have to play better against a much better defensive front than they played Sunday. This front 7 has the probability of stuffing Mixon at the line negating one of our bright spots last week.
Unlike last year Baltimore's secondary is playing well.
Defensive line will have to put more pressure on Flacco than we did on Luck
Linebackers and Dennard will have to play a lot better in the middle of the field - and Brown will be working on a sore ankle
Defensive backs will have to handle a much improved receiver squad from last year
Suggs is at the beginning of his season and relatively fresh - especially after being rested half of the game last Sunday. Same for the rest of their starters.
I don't think we get this done tomorrow.
Later in the season could be a very different story though.
