Schaub will have a Day in Hell compliments of the Ravens front 7. I'm feeling better and better about the Ravens chances to win. It'll be close but they certainly have a decent chance.
I've had an Epiphany thanks to all of you. Right now I think the Ravens will win. I can't exactly explain why. Maybe it's like that "Bring on Brady" stuff.
I'm feeling a Ravens win less today than earlier in the week. Plus I won't be at the game so they won't be able to pull energy from my spiritual aura. That said...there is a lot I'm looking forward to see from this Ravens team. Better play from the secondary. Can they find a way to run the ball. Improvement from the receivers and TE's in catching the ball. Better protection from the O line and better run blocking. If they can do that they will get the win. I don't expect that to happen this early in the season. It will suck being 1-2 but this will be a much improved team by week 8. They just have to weather the storm up till then.
The defense is ranked 18th and one of the games was against the anemic Browns. I guess it's been so long since there was something to cheer or gloat about that this is really something huge for you.
Richardson found out that he was traded while listening to the radio....no phone call from the organization. Now...since the front office has given up on this year, do the players pack it in for the season?
I think I get it. They need a QB and they'll be playing for the #1 pick in the draft plus this #1 and get Manzell. They are making sure that offense won't score any TD's this year. Why do their fans bother to go to those games?
The Texans are playing better football right now than the Ravens. I'm not feeling it. The LT Brown will be out with turf toe...that helps a lot. Now if Andre Johnson can't play because of the concussion that will really help. You can run on that D but they are stingy on the pass. The Ravens are doing 1 thing well...stopping the run. The Ravens need this game or it will be their 2nd AFC loss. Not good for the playoff formula.
They put a guy on Boldin who was physical enough to jam him on the line, not get thrown aside in the process and totally wreck the timing of the play. Boldin's going to see that all year.
