Jamison Hensley on Twitter “Ravens had seven players not practicing Wednesday: WR Sammy Watkins (hamstring) RB Latavius Murray (ankle) C Bradley Bozeman (back) OT Alejandro Villanueva (knee) OLB Justin Houston CB Jimmy Smith CB Tavon Young” Jeff Zrebiec on Twitter “Ravens have added C Adam Redmond to their practice squad. He worked out for the team yesterday. Redmond has played in 18 career games, four with the Colts and 14 with the Cowboys.” This feels like a migration of players who you have never heard about landing on the Ravens. Jamison Hensley on Twitter “According to the Ravens’ website, OT Brandon Knight did not report to the team after being claimed on waivers”

Here's a good read by Hensley on the potential of this becoming a serious rivalry....

Buy Or Sell: Ravens/Bengals will be the new rivalry in the AFC North The Ravens Realm (@RealmRavens) Hoyeon Jung, Squid Game star, reveals in a recent interview to Vogue Korea that lately she’s been obsessed with Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens “I just think it’s something the world needs right now. Whenever I watch him play, my mood changes for the better" Retweets 605 Likes 4202 Twitter•10/10/2021 Me too!

So what QB do you draft at #32 who will take the Ravens to the Super Bowl?

Buy!!!!!!

I think everybody wonders about that. There's no answer right now except to move on.

Me too crav. For Right Now. If they beat the Bengals they will solidly be the best for awhile. JK, Gus, Stanley, Peters gone. Yea...16 on IR. Hard to believe yet it's true.

And AJ Green...

Wow! That is awesome! Cole Jackson (@ColeJacksonFB) #Ravens rookie Odafe Oweh has 20 pressures through 6 games (t20th in the NFL) 40 pressures from a rookie is considered a very good season (Chase Young had 40 in 15 games in 2020). Oweh is well on pace to hit that "very good" mark. DROY behaviour. Sarah Ellison (@sgellison) Ravens iLB snap count: Josh Bynes: 43 (77%) Chris Board: 23 (41%) Patrick Queen: 19 (34%) Malik Harrison: 14 (25%) Bynes was a clear difference-maker, ensuring that everyone was in the right place and we saw less mistakes because of it.

Late For Work 10/19: John Harbaugh-Led Ravens Sit Atop the AFC Head Coach John Harbaugh is in the Coach of the Year conversation again. Lamar Jackson has yet to sign a contract extension and his season has likely inflated his price tag. Are the Ravens ‘lucky?’ Todays Buy or Sell: based on the above Quote.... Are the Ravens lucky?

We've got a snot knarker on our hands. The Bengals are better than the Chargers. Burroughs has thrown for 1540 yards for 14 TD's and 7 Int's. Chase has 27 receptions for 553 yards and 5 TD's. Burroughs has other receiving weapons in Boyd and Higgins and TE Uzomah. Mixon has 480 yards rushing and 3 TD's. The Bengals defense has 14 sacks and five interceptions and five forced fumbles. Their safeties and secondary are good. Here's the team stats: Team Stats Points Per Game 24.7 28.3 Points Allowed Per Game 18.5 20.5 Total Yards 364.0 436.2 Yards Passing 257.8 281.0 Yards Rushing 106.2 155.2 Yards Allowed 348.2 377.0 Pass Yards Allowed 257.7 295.0 Rush Yards Allowed 90.5 82.0 As far as the statistical matchup, it is very similar to what we had last week against the Chargers, except that the Bengals can play defense. And HC Taylor won't be fool enough to bring his team in at 9 PM on Saturday night like Staley. His team will be playing a lot faster and more inspired than the Chargers. They are hungry and they believe in themselves. The Ravens have won their last five games against the Bengals since 2018. The 4-2 Bengals team is a far superior team to those of the past. Currently they are a top five contender for the playoffs. "Yes, that's true." We all know that "in division games" are very hard-fought because the opponents know each other And they may not like each other. They are battling for the division title and battling to knock the other team out of contention. The Ravens will have their hands full. So will the Bengals. Once again, something's got to give Sunday at 1 PM at the Bank. Two fast-moving trains heading towards each other on the same track. It's a 12th man day and we will rise to the occasion. Looks like we have a lot to discuss about this game and match up this week. Will the Bengals defense slow down the Ravens rushing attack? Will the Bengals secondary take away the deep ball and slow down the Ravens passing attack? Can they pressure Lamar? Which Ravens defense will show up Sunday? The one that we saw against the Colts and the Chiefs or the one that we saw against Denver and the Chargers? Will Wink dial-up another masterful game plan? Will GRO continue his streak of in game adjustments attacking the whole field on what the Bengals give him? Will John have his team ready like last week? My belief is that this Ravens team and coaching staff are totally focused and dialed in. And that's a good thing. I'll put this out last because it really means nothing, and yet it's a computer simulation so it has to be right. Right? I trust this guy more... and the Learning Triangle, and yet, for now, let's trust science and math: The Ravens have a 68.3 winning percentage going into this game. So we can all relax. Right?

I read this......."Harbaugh was asked Monday whether there's been any resolution with Stanley. "I think we're nearing one," I got this ominous feeling...like they are about to say Stanley's career is over. Anybody else getting that vibe?

I'll sell for one week. The Bengals are statically a relatively close match with the Ravens offensively and with the Chargers. They have great receivers, Burrows and Mixon. They also know the Ravens as a division opponent. How well the Ravens D does Sunday should give some clarity on this situation.

6 games have been played and there is the first glimpse of the contenders and pretenders for the AFC Playoffs. Buy or Sell: Going into week 7, The Ravens are the best team in the AFC?

I got this information from FiveThiryEight. Here's a problem that needs to be fixed: As a team, Baltimore is converting its third downs just 34.5 percent of the time, 27th in the NFL and 6.1 percentage points below league average. So far the Ravens have been great on 1st and 2nd downs converting to a 1st down 40% of the time. Justin Herbert And Lamar Jackson Are Crushing It … On Different Downs | FiveThirtyEight Bart Scott.

Buy or Sell: You never know with this team. Tucker could try from 68 yards as the clock runs out...or getting 100 yards rushing... Just saying....

I can respect that. It's hard to say they can dial it up when needed after only 2 games. they didn't make the big plays against the Lions and they did against Denver. This part..." "Even though they aren't the most talented from top to bottom or the healthiest" has me selling for now. If they have no more injuries and get some players back I can see this becoming true.

Buy or Sell the following statement....

ESPN just posted their 1st Quarter Rankings and have the Ravens at #7 ahead of the 3-1 Cowboys, 3-1 Chargers, 3-1 Raiders and 2-2 Chiefs. Buy or Sell: The #7 ranking is where the Ravens should be.

I was worried. I should have been clearer on this post. I was thinking about the first 1/4 of the season. When they lost JK, Gus, Peters and Stanley I was beginning to see a lost season. Not now. I'm a buyer.

Buy or Sell: The Ravens are handling adversity well.
