I foresee many 12 men in the huddle/12 men on the field penalties today...

We apparently had a pattern of doing the no huddle after big plays. Greg Cosell commented on it and apparently the Eagles have picked up on it too. Hopefully we don't do what they expect and can keep them off guard.

It's amazing how afraid and obsessed people suddenly have become of that Flacco no-huddle. It's not like we are the first or only team to run it. Far from it. Not to mention, that we still huddle. How much did we go no-huddle against the Bengals? On 35% of plays?

This game will be close because the Eagles are at home and they won't throw as many interceptions this week. They have Vick, McCoy, a very good pass rush, and outstanding CBs. Still, we will find a way to win 31 to 28. Go Ravens!

Up front and in the back the Eagles are tough to beat, but inside they are weak. Their LB and safeties will have a hard time dealing with Boldin, Pitta and Dickson and unlike Vick, Flacco rarely turns over the ball.
I get it that their defense is good, but they were not as good as the 49ers or the Steelers last year, both of which we beat with much less firepower compared to now. Lets not forget our offense plays against defense, that are just as good, if not better on a regular basis. So lets not get carried away with the unbeatable Eagles defense.
I respect the Eagles for their run game and their homefield advantage, if anything they have a chance to beat us with that.

I haven't really noticed it, but even if so, how can they stop it? How does knowing that put them in a better situation to stop the no huddle?

His own father won't wear his jersey because he's afraid of getting hurt, he's disappointed that the Eagles didnt pick him, and the best thing about today's game is not seeing his son play, but that he only has to drive 15 min.

This had to have been taken completely out of context.

Well I guess for them they apparently see a window to be able to put in the personnel they want. That still seems like a lot of rushing around. Idk it'll be interesting. This will be different from game 1 though where the team seemed completely off guard compared to now where a team is stating they're prepared and have picked up on our tendencies.

I'm sure they'll have more of an advantage than the Bengals did. I think we're going to take a different approach with the Eagles. I think we can anticipate a heavier ground game today. Now that we can throw, our offense can be really unpredictable.

True that. I want to see more Ray Rice this game. Him running & screens can help with the pass rush.

Looks like our Ravens are flying high, lets just make sure we don't crash and burn.......Go Ravens!!!

Apparently the Eagles have a plan of being able to sub against our no huddle. This will be interesting.

Yes, but who cares about conditioning after a big play? The no-huddle is about wearing down defenses with long drives. You don't have long drives when you have big plays. You just have confusion, and subbing in and out after big plays combined with a quick snap is just going to make it all the more confusing for the Eagles.

Looks like we're wearing the home unis today.

Lets go Ravens....Now we will see what we are made of. One of the best pass rushers in the league a year ago has to see Oher can't wait.

Hello from Lincoln Financial Field in Philly. Hey, my cousins live in Philly and have season tickets so I couldn't turn down their offer to go today. I'm the only one in this whole section wearing my #5 purple pride jersey. We Italians roll like that! Wow, we are tied 7 to 7. We came right back from giving the ball away in the red zone and scored. I like our chances today!

Pollard is knocking the snot out of people out there. The crowd is getting quiet now.
