Ravens:
UNBLIEVABLE, HON. 6 Field Goals! 61 Yards!?! It worked this week, but not on Sunday, when rain is forecasted with the Patriots coming into town. Brady is much better than Stafford (who is a lite version of Tony Romo), although Brady is scared of the Ravens. The Pats have staged major comebacks in several games recently, and the Ravens can’t get a lead and try sitting on it. The Patriots don’t play defense, and the Ravens need to exploit this to the fullest to score 7’s (not 3’s) as early and often as possible. Anything else is setting up a heart breaker.
This game has all kind of playoff implications involved, and at many levels. The Patriots clinched the division title with a win or a Miami Loss. The Ravens need a lot more help, but their destiny is in their hands. If they win the next 2 games, they don’t only clinch a playoff berth, but they also clinch the division title, and don’t think that it will only be a 4 seed. There are scenarios out there that could push us further up the post season standings… as far as the 2 seed and a first round bye, but lets not get ahead of ourselves. Winning is a requirement, and no opponent can be overlooked from here on out. That story hasn’t changed since Week 12.
