The Ravens keep getting respect this off season...and it's been a good off season so far for the Ravens.

 

With rookies entrenched in offseason workouts and the majority of free-agent movement and trades finalized, it's time to recalibrate how teams stack up one through 32 -- in June.

 

The more I examined teams, their schedules and the like, there's a team in Southern California that is teed up for a big season, and one in crab country not far behind.

 

 

1. Chargers -- The Bolts run game improves with rookie Ryan Mathews, and they play just two playoff teams in the first 10 games.

 

2. Ravens -- WR Anquan Boldin plus RB Ray Rice plus QB Joe Flacco makes this offense as fearsome as the defense.

 

3. Mexico's Team -- This team boasts enviable depth. If it can survive its early schedule

It's all on paper at the moment but I'll take it. It feels like the Ravens have turned a corner in the national perception....having an offense will do that.

I would be happy but anyone stupid enough to say the Chargers are the #1 team in the league isn't trustworthy. That team got way worse this off-season in my opinion, I'm not expecting big things from them.

Likewise, I'm not expecting the Ravens to be way better offensively, just hoping; they have to prove something to earn the kind of accolades they're receiving. too much hype, let's wait at least until game 4 of preseason to make any real predictions.
