vmax Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 It's finally that time of year. Make your pick. We probably should have a season prediction thread too. I'm all in on the Ravens winning their opener.Not scared of Denver at all. Neither is CBS...http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/features/writers/expert/picks Quote

oldno82 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Denver 30 Ravens 27. Can't predict the year, yet. Let's see how they fare over the first 2 games. Quote
vmax Posted September 7, 2015 Author Posted September 7, 2015 Oh it'll be 47 to 17 donkeys The Broncos will have several young players, including rookies Ty Sambrailo and Max Garcia, in key roles on their offensive line.......two defensive starters who are suspended to open the season -- defensive end Derek Wolfe and safety T.J. Ward... Quote
varaven45 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 Taking the donkeys -5, pay pay is too fresh, and we have done nothing to improve our secondary. Broncos in a *** I'm stupid for thinking this game is easy *** Hard to argue with Crav and his logic. Opening at Denver for its home opener and with warm weather for Manning makes this a very tough draw for the good guys. Plus we've still got a lot of question marks and holes to fill. It may take us a few weeks to get our feet underneath us. Quote
Tornado700 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 27-17 Denver. I already know Denver's defensive game plan. Quote
thundercleetz Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 I have serious worries about our receivers getting open against the Broncos secondary, and our secondary covering the Broncos elite receiving corp. However, I am not sold on Manning being able to hurt us downfield. I have a feeling we'll know right away whether or not we will win the game. We either have success running the ball and throwing play-action in tight-end heavy sets, or the Broncos score a couple of quick TDs and we are forced to play catch up with an unproven receiving corp. Quote
varaven45 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 Excellent points Cleetz. Which is why our running game will be critical. No run game = no W. Quote
vmax Posted September 8, 2015 Author Posted September 8, 2015 The only thing that concerns me with Denver is their rushing attack. It's been great this preseason and we know the wonders Kubiak can do there. Get that going and Manning has a shot at being effective.i also have a minor concern that the secondary smoke from the stands may affect the Ravens players. Quote
Robjr83 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 Peyton is money early in the season. I'm seeing a repeat of the last time we were forced to open the season there. Quote
varaven45 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 FWIW- I see this team starting out slow and struggling in Sept, especially with 3 out of 4 on the road , not to mention an evolving receiving corps and recovering secondary (CB position) Afterwards, the team should get healthier, stronger and improve as the season progresses.

TBird Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 This is where HARBs is at his best. With the world picking vs him because of the secondary which still hasJimmy out, he'll hit them hard for the win and on the road with Trestman's offense scoring 34 points and theD hanging on by a thread. I say that because the Ravens showed nothing on defense or offense over the summerwhile saving it for the real deal. Quote
vmax Posted September 9, 2015 Author Posted September 9, 2015 OK...it's safe to say this will be our board on the Ravens/Bronco's Gameday thread.... Quote

cravnravn Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 I'm agreeing with the Stealer bimbo, pains me with our dbs Quote
cravnravn Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 Kubes fucked the ravens over, not one time did pay pay run the wc offences Quote
tsylvester Posted September 13, 2015 Posted September 13, 2015 Wow, quite impressive to keep Manning out of the end zone; just wow. Especially when the offense could do nothing. To come up big with a field goal stop after an 11 minute drive! This defense, the secondary, is far better than I thought, if they can stay healthy. This offense is not as bad as it looked, not many teams have two edge rushers like the Broncos. Still boggles my mind why they would not chip, and only slid help over, a guard, later in the game. Even then, because of the wide sweep of the edge rushers, the gaurds were no help.... A 6 pt loss, almost a win, Smith's drop, Gilmore almost had that one, Joe ruushed it, who could blame him, he ws going there before the ball was snapped. The play was to the right side, one on one with Aiken, who had the height advantage.... I honestly feel better about this team after this loss, even if Suggs is lost for a long time.... Quote
cravnravn Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) Shoots your theory in the ass of keeping the d healthy Edited September 14, 2015 by cravnravn Quote
tsylvester Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 Shoots your theory in the ass of keeping the d healthy Not really, Suggs, while very good, I was not expecting much from this year. The Ravens can replace him, the secondary and middle backers is my concern for health. 1 Quote
52isUnstoppable Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 -secondary was outstanding. Jimmy smith is a stud and Webb was getting his jersey dirty for the first time in years.- We need Perriman on the field immediately. No one on this team has speed or separation- We need Monroe healthy Quote
