tsylvester Posted Tuesday at 04:41 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:41 PM Circle the wagons, prepare for the battle, the Bengals are madd and come into Baltimore with vengence in their hearts. They feel as if a win a few weeks ago between these two teams was snatched away from, that they deserved to win that game. Oh, they are not alone, the Ravens defense feels that even though they won, that they lost; their identity. They too are angry, is that hamgry, they hunger to prove that they can be a dominant force once again. The Baltimore offense is still clicking, leading the league in many categories, on a short week, against a familiar foe, can they keep the momentum going? Short wee games are odd, which team can get their energy level up, can recover from their last game, physically, just a few days earlier, quicker, usually comes out on top. These games may be low scoring or complete shootouts, we just never know until the dust settles. So, who ya got? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldno82 Posted Tuesday at 05:59 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:59 PM Well, sad to say I was out of town for the Broncos game but recorded it and am just getting around to watching it now. Offense, especially Lamar and Flowers is most impressive. Defense held their own. The Bengals offense will be much more difficult to handle. Burrow has the talent and weapons to shred our already shaky secondary. The Pees defense won't be able to slow them down I don't think...bend but don't break won't hold the Bengals offense. Relentless pressure on Burrow is the only way to beat these guys and we don't seem to have much of that. So to me it looks like a shoot out. I think the Bengals have the edge this week.

tsylvester Posted 5 hours ago Author Share Posted 5 hours ago Before the last meeting, Burrow said that he/they had to play perfect to win the game, he darn near did. Since that meeting he has throw 8 tds and 2 picks, for 874 yards. In that game he threw 5 tds, had 1 costly, late pick. To help the defense, run the snot out of the ball, use the play clock. They will try and take the run away, run blitzes and such. But if the line can hold them off, big runs become easier as there will be little to stop rhe back once he breaks through. Penalties have to be kept down, last week started great, only 3 in the first half. Make a statement, let the Bengals know that their season is effectively over.

tsylvester Posted 5 hours ago Author Share Posted 5 hours ago Well, we can expect a flag fest Quote Clete Blakeman has the assignment, and this will be the first time he’s seen the Bengals or the Ravens this season. The Bengals are 8-7 with Blakeman as the referee, and they are 2-1 against Baltimore with him on the call. Blakeman and his crew lead the NFL in penalties called, averaging 16.3 per game. They also lead the NFL in penalty yards per game at 142.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
