Easy, Much?

[ROH522155]

40-13 Ravens. Were gonna put up 500 yards

[BohBalmerOsbohs]

thread up early i see. I'm not taking this game lightly, but I do expect a butt whooping like earlier this year. 28-7 Baltimore. Joshua Cribbs takes one to the house late in the game. Time to enjoy the Bengal Steeler game tomorrow, and stock up on good MNF game time food!

[Jamal]

Ravens haven't scored a first half TD since the Pats game. Somehow I see that streak snapped in this game.

[J-man]

It was funny to see ESPN try to advertise it. They were like "Ravens and Ray Lewis face the Browns.[pause] Joe Flacco."

[cursona pirate]

if we lose this season is pretty bad!

[RavenRage92]

Looking forward to Monday, lets get back on the winning track Ravens!!

[Militant X 1]

we can't take the Browns lightly! they would love to play the spoilers on our road to the playoffs! we need to get started really fast and keep up the momentum! our defense needs to be pure BEASTS!! we got to get that intimidation factor back! RAVENS WIN!!!!

[BohBalmerOsbohs]

Holy hell, from what I have read from Several Browns Forums, They are still up for doing the Late Walk In Protest. This guy in the link says he knows a few hundred that are doing it, and Dawg Pound Mike has thousands doing it in his group tailgate. man guys, we could see a near [b]Empty[/b] Browns stadium for MNF. Thats really going to look rather weird. Sucks its like this for them, where MNF started and all.

This is just one forum mind you. It will be interesting to see come Kickoff. Its probably going to be soooo quite in that stadium

AND according to Mike Himself, thousands have been confirmed doing Late Walk In.

[bigdaddysteveo]

its early game day morning and the time is tickin for kickoff im here in baltimore and the weather is good to bad we aint playin home but i think we will take this win and hopefully we get r heads back into the game and play like ravens cause we got hard games right around the corner and if we want to see playsoffs they need to start playin hard ball GO RAVENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Bleedin Purple

[ZIBBY28]

Nothing in the NFL is guaranteed, easpecially playing [i]in Cleveland[/i] with them [i]coming off a bye[/i] during [i]prime time[/i]. the Browns took it to the Giants last year on MNF, so you never really know. I hope we cover the -10.5 point spread and show we are a complete team by dominating every phase of the game... This is a MUST WIN if we want any playoff hope.

[FlaccoFlicker]

Who woulda thought at the beginning of the year we would be worried about this game?And yeah I am a little worried,this is a crucial win for us tonight.

[J-man]

Why be worried? It's the Browns. Name one person on the Browns that scares you.

[McBoller]

I cant even look at this game as a must win. I look at it as a must ANNIHILATE!!!
1-point works for a NE@INDY game.This game should be decidedby no less than 17 points.

[cursona pirate]

maybe the browns can beat the steelers lol!

[cursona pirate]

lets go ravens!!!![img]http://www2.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Cleveland+Browns+v+Baltimore+Ravens+yJyJfwSSKeKl.jpg[/img]

Josh Cribbs.

Personally, I'm not scared. If I were going to be worried however, I would be worried about the Ravens more so than the Browns.

[52Kia Kaha92]

Ravens win 17-14
The browns stadium is a tough place to play and this team isnt a good as you guys seem to be making it out to be. We will find out a lot about this teams identity tonight.

Lets just hope Kruger and Barnes are active instead of Tyree and Demetrius!

[Irishraven]

I think we will win it by 14 points with Ray Rice getting at least 2 TDs - We need to use this game to sort out our problems - I also pray for no injuries! Let Go Ravens!!!

[Militant X 1]

21-7...RAVENS WIN!!

[/quote]

That will do for a game on the road and the 14 points margin which I hope for

[MagicianCamille]

Unfortunately I have class during MNF (something I'm hoping to remedy for future semesters) so I won't be able to see this game live, but I will record it and watch it when I get home.

That said I'm sure we'll win but this game isn't going to answer any questions for us or help turn the ship around. We have to beat good teams to prove anything.

Obviously if we lose, that's pretty much the season.

[McBurks]

Ravens win 28-10.

So, why do I get the feeling that leading up to the game the coverage is going to be more on the Colts and Pats game last night than it will the Browns and Ravens game... I hate ESPN.

Lol, they'll throw in some Brett Favre too.


I'm interested to see how Gruden is going to make Cleveland sound like a good team.
