    You could be that good behind that O Line. SACKED only 13 times. Could also explain why Brady, Car, Cousins, and Manning teams are doing so good.They all have 10 or less SACKS.

    Good point.  Makes you wonder if all the money spent on QBs and RBs ought to be spent on the OL.  Ravens' major fallacy is having a $120 million QB and not protecting him or giving him time to throw, or having a run game.

    Cowboys have never beaten the Ravens. Our defense is ranked #1. Cowboys are averaging 30 pts. per game, but Ravens only giving up 18 ppg. If we can hold them to 20, we'll need 21 to win. Doable.

    BTW, an 8-8 record will probably win our division. If that is the way it goes down, we'll need to win our division games to get the tie-breaker (if necessary). So Dallas game isn't super critical to win. But ... 8-8 will definitely not get a Wild Card berth, so we need to take the division.

    Can the Ravens score 30+ points? Because that's what it going to take to beat Dallas but the Ravens have not scored 30 this year. This will be game if the Ravens can be taken seriously and the players to get noticed and shut everyone up.

    True, Dallas has an average 29 points per game this season (wow), but the Ravens' #1 defense is only allowing 18 points per game (both figures rounded).  If we can hold them to 18, I think we have a good chance of winning.  However, I seriously doubt we are going to score 30, since we're averaging 20 per game.

    5 THOUGHTS
    IT GETS HARDER FRO HERE BUT

    1. Sizzle looks like he has found the fountain of youth. He is playing inspired and his play is lifting the rest of the defense.

    2. We need to continue to feed Perriman and Waller...They both looked dangerous last night and we saw glimpses of who they can be. Feed them

    3. Flacco needs to get his confidence back. IDK if it is the knee... of if he is getting hit too much or a combination or what the deal is... but even when he had time.... he looks a little gun shy.

    4. Dixon showed flashes... hope he continues to grow with more playing time.

    5. We have some budding stars on this team (Waller, Dixon, Stanley, Judon, Pierce, and Z. Smith) all seem to be poised to take their games to the next level. If we can get Perriman in the mix and KC to develop... I think it is a good nucleus of young players to add to the handful of veterans that we already possess (BWilliams, CJ, Jimmy, Suggs, Yanda, Doom, Wagner, Tucker, Weddle, SSS and Wallace)

    Well said.  I would add that we really need a consistent, dependable, well-coached offensive line.

    My 3 thoughts...

    1. It's about time the offense decided to join the party
    2. This defense is scary good...championship level good
    3. Tavon Young is the real deal (he completely erased Corey Coleman)

    Great points. Agree 1000%. This team is SOOOO different with Wright out and Tavon at the # 2 corner. Tavon and Pierce are 2 massive surprising difference makers for this team! We are Nasty! Dixon and Perriman joining the party changes the O big time as well

    AGREED!!!!

    An I allowed to do a +2, or is that too AOL? :)

    Sorry, but this is not all on Joe. The dropped passes, the fumbles, the stupid penalties(at the worst times that kill drives), the pee poor running game and the god-awful coaching decisions by Harbaugh(your team can't score..take the damn points)! So no, it ain't all on Joe.

    Agreed.  Which brings us back to the controversy in which Harbaugh fired all the alpha males in the wake of Ray Lewis' departure.  We notably lost Lewis, Reed, Pollard, Boldin, etc.  People have often asked the question:  "Who are the leaders in the Ravens' locker room?"  But it isn't really that we lack leaders.  It's more like we lack people with overwhelming drive and emotionalism.  SSS is the only one on the team right now, IMO.
