News and Personal Thoughts:
The GoogleDoc set up for ticket sharing has gotten some traffic. 4 posts for “tickets Wanted,” but I haven’t seen anyone posting for “Tickets for Sale” yet. In case you are selling, there are requests for Cleveland, San Diego and Kansas City home games. Check it out at Ravens Roost 4 Ticket Exchange.
Ravens:
Can’t tell much when 90% of the starters don’t even suit up, so I will stick with my original concern regarding the defensive penetration and soft secondary. On other notes, Sports Illustrated predicted the Ravens to win the Super Bowl, and also ran another article on OG John Urschel, who is making waves as a mathematician on the side. The Baltimore Sun, and USA Today have run pared down versions of the story.
This weeks match-up should prove to be very challenging for the Ravens. I think we can put up points offensively, but I am not sure how well we can do in slowing down the Bronco offense. With 5 of the first 7 games on the road, the Ravens need to establish a strong road presence early in the season in order to make them relevant later on.
