Bengals @ Ravens predictions

[kevin]

Beware of wounded animals......Ravens know that teams that start 0-3 rarely make the play-offs. You can come back from an 0-2 start, but starting 0-3 just kills you.....So they will be playing this game as if their whole season depends on it, and it does....There is a huge difference starting 1-2 or starting 0-3.....Plus, they can pick off the team in first place and even things up more in the AFC North.....Plus, it's the old Browns with Ozzie Newsome in a front office job and we play the Ravens twice each year. They don't like us. It's a rival game. Bengals swept Ravens last season and you know they want this win at home....

I'm rooting for our Bengals but they better pack a lunch and get ready for one long game, because the entire season is riding on this for the Ravens and they will hit us with everything and the kitchen sink. It will probably bring out the best game they will play all season. ....and if we can get out of Baltimore at 3-0 on the season, the Bengals have just won one tough game. Coach Lewis who was D coach at Baltimore, I'm sure he won't let their 0-2 start make him think this is an easy game.

Predition : a Bengals win, I hope, but Ravens give us a heck of a game because they have to trying to avoid 0-3. Their veteran QB takes the team on his back and tries to save their season, not wanting Bengals to deliver the knock out punch as early as September. Bengals win, but they better pack a lunch.
