Where we stand (statistically)

[GrubberRaven]

I guess I don't help much...basically, I'll take each game as it comes. The secondary performed well against a rookie QB. Our O-line and Joe can't handle a majority of blitzes...9-7...no playoffs...

Speaking of stats, ESPN has us in the playoffs, and winning the division, based upon DVOA:

 

 

http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11857463/dallas-cowboys-miss-postseason-updated-playoff-projection-nfl

 

Each week from now until the end of the regular season, we'll be taking a look at the projected playoff field based on the Football Outsiders playoff odds simulation that plays out the rest of the season 50,000 times. A random draw assigns each team a win or loss for each game. (Like Donovan McNabb, the playoff odds simulation does not believe in ties.) The probabilities are based on each team's current weighted DVOA rating as well as home-field advantage. (DVOA is Football Outsiders' proprietary defense-adjusted value over average metric which looks at a team's performance on every play and adjusts based on situation and opponent, explained further here. Weighted DVOA then takes that rating and adjusts it to lower the strength of games that took place more than a month ago.)

 

4. Baltimore Ravens

Current record: 6-4 | Weighted DVOA: 23.7%
Mean projected wins: 9.9
Total playoff odds: 64.6% | Weekly change: +11.1%

 

If the season ended today, the Ravens would not have a playoff spot, but our DVOA ratings regard Baltimore as the class of the AFC North. The Ravens are fourth in the NFL in point differential, and DVOA has them rated even higher -- second behind only Denver. And even though the entire division has winning records, Baltimore is the only AFC North team in our top 10. The Ravens also have the division's easiest remaining schedule.

Very interesting! I hope it plays out like that. But, I'm figuring on another 8-8 season.

I kinda like our remaining schedule also, no way in hell we don't get at least 5 more wins out of it, and if we play our cards right we can run the table. Lol at the Bengals 7 games left, 5 on the road

I have brought up stats that you happily ignored.

You don't bring up shit all you want to do is trade people, and here you and your other stooge clearly ignoring the facts posted here that the ravens are 8th in passing 6th in rushing. You and rasta havent said one thing positive. Where the fact is we are 100% better offensively then last season.

[RavenMad]

I only see 4 more wins. All 3 home games we should win but I just can't see us winning more than 1 more road game the rest of the way. I'm normally the optimist but the team is just so inconsistent when on the road that going 1-2 seems realistic at this point.

[cravnravn]

I consider Miami a home game since there will be ton of ravensravens fans there and Miami will make us where are dark purple jerseys.

Then you are blind or willfully ignorant.

Willful ignorance.

[varaven45]

I don't share the same optimism on number of wins but see extremely close games down the stretch. We may witness a cliff hanger win or two and lose a heartbreaker or two.

Stock up on your best beverages, pain meds, zantac, etc. for the final run. It should be interesting.

[cravnravn]

Ravens 8-2 after the bye week.

Once again you fucking add nothing

So when I gave the w-l for the last 34 games was that in anyway directed at Joe?

 

I have seen teams get past losing a LT before.

[thundercleetz]

Papa and Crav, could you guys do us all a favor and block each other? I think you both would be much happier

[papasmurfbell]

I am perfectly happy.

Ravens 10-6 in the wild card. Stealers will probably take the division, based on everybody's upcoming schedule. Ravens lose 2, Steelers lose 2, Cincy loses 3, and Cleveland loses 3.
