I like our chances in week 9 better than in week 1. I honestly don't see us winning tomorrow.

But I really hope they do. I won't be able to watch NFLN for a while if they don't.

I second the NFLN statement. When we win, I soak it up by watching the highlights about a thousand times haha. But when we lose, I tend to avoid anything that has to do with football until the next game. The mood of my week depends on what happens on Sundays haha.

Losing any game sucks, but this one in particular would be bad. Flacco's 0-7, old defense, etc. I couldn't take it.

[mark0408]

Flacco will do just fine tomorrow and enough with saying our defense is old

Everyone take the time and pick up your cell phones, dial up the Baltimore Inner Harbor Marriot and order room B186 some room service.

The Ravens only have 4 or so players over 30

Oh this is disappearing in 3.....2.....1....

[sup]Even if we lose I hope Flacco throws for like 300 yards and 2 TDs with no INTs. Let people see that this is a team sport.[/sup]

ha, sadly no but last year, When we played the Steelers at home on SNF, someone on the baltimore sun forums indeed got Tomlins room number extension. He eventually took the phone off the jack, lmao.

This is so funny haha. Just imagine a disgruntled Mike Tomlin waking up repeatedly to answer his phone, then finally he rips it out of the wall angrily.

No. This isnt the guy from earlier this evening. That guy had a count of 40 something when he began and hit every conceivable thread for a couple hours and racked up over 250 mostly meaningless posts in that time. A few were in actual conversations but the rest were ????

Haha he's got less than 500. Far from a hall of famer haha. But really I don't mean to personally attack the guy I just think people need to understand forum ettiquette if they want to stick around here for a while.

I'm not talking about you either, I'm referring to imissmattstover. That's who was going post nuts earlier. It was way overboard.

[Purple Nurple]

I think I'm confusing people. It's late and there's wine in a glass. Lol. My apologies.

i highly doubt that...
Its possible dont get me wrong but i highly doubt it

We used a good amount of 4 wide sets last season so I don't see why we wouldn't in this game.

Both the long pass to Boldib and Stallworth came from 4 wide sets last year.

The Ravens had success with the 4 wide set against the Steelers and that was with no speed at WR and now we have speed, so I don't see why we wouldn't.

I actually expect to see a lot of 4 wide sets, but it'll be mixed up with bunch formations, trips, 2TE 2WR, etc.

I actually expect the Ravens to open things up early and get that defense off balanced. That will open up the running game and then we can really attack them deep.

[codizzle]

Yea dude was everywhere... But it happens every year.. New people come n go...
Its all good..

11 hours n counting!

if the oline is ready then yes i agree.. Personally im pessimistic and wanna see the oline do work first before i say we spread it out...
Also, i have hard time believing we will spread a whole lot when our two biggest offseason signings (debateable) in leach n mckinnie are key in revamping our rushing attack..
All in all just my opinion and my main wish is that we just execute however it is we attack em

First and last time I agree with Mike Preston.

I don't know if it's only me, but i'm feeling some kind of pressure... I really hate Pittsburgh and I just can't stop thinking about that mnf game where Ben dissected our Dbacks when our starting corners were Ronnie Prude & Corey ! But I guess i have the same feeling everytime we play Pittsburgh, but man it's good to be back to football on sundays !!!

Nothing wakes me up this early on a weekend except for my Ravens lol
