Next up: The New England Patriots

[Moderator 2]

Hopefully not the last home game!

No Gronk. Short week for us. Could go either way, and of course, a must win!

[Ravensfan23]

Bring it on. We gotta score more TDs but to get a big win on the road i'll take it. It's time to take this Division right now.

I feel quite positive about this game with the recent success we had vs the brady, no gronk and no other big weapons

[Inqui]

At a glance, we clinch a playoff berth if we win and Miami lose. I reckon we win, no way we play down to the Patriots at home with this much on the line.

Corners will have to have another huge game. Pats will spread us out a lot with a ton of receivers. Suggs and Doom need to play well too.

[The Raven]

We're hot, they're not, and it's a home game. We got this.

[Footman DCXLV]

After this win over Detroit, I have the same feeling I had after we beat Denver in the playoffs last week. That was the hurdle we needed to get over to have the momentum to go all the way. Before the game, I wasn't even sure we were making the playoffs. After this win, I'm confident the Ravens are going to beat New England and set up that game for the division title against Cincinnati in week 17.

 

As nice as it is to have a first-round bye locked up and nothing to worry about at the end of the year, it's so much more fun to be on edge every week, with every game being crucial.

What happens if Baltimore loses and so does Miami?

Baltimore has the tie breaker right?

Yes.....

[PuRock]

They're defense is a mess.  Rice loves playing the Pats.  Running down that soft middle might actually pay off on first down.

 

I wonder if the Bengals feel our breath on their necks.

We have the Same record as Miami, but we have head to head tiebreaker. If both teams lose then we still hold the playoff spot, but we don't clinch it.

We have the tie-breaker over Miami, but if San Diego wins, I think they might hold the tie-breaker over both teams. This is solely based on a scenario I think some commentator stated during another game though, so I'm not guaranteeing anything.

Yea if there is a three way tie, then our head-to-head goes out the window.

 

But with this big win tonight, I can see us winning out.  So hopefully it doesn't come down to it.  

[Natural Born Hitters]

I feel that we can easily beat the Pats, hopefully Flacco's injury isn't too bad.

I think they were feeling it since our Vikings game.

I hope Tucker hits the game-winning FG this week!

Well he did last year in BAL.  The controversial over the pole kick.

[RavenMadAussie]

Looking forward to a Ravens win, joined by lossess to Miami & Cincy. Even a Ravens & Bengals win this week will set up a massive last week fixture.

 

Hope Joe's ok for this one, and that we can get far enough ahead that we can rest him for a bit in the 4th.

[beatdareaper]

Outta of the 3 game stretch, the Lions was the only team that worried me. We have brady's number, ravens know how to play him.

 

Bengals, we will take care of business with them. This team doesn't know how to win in these situations.

[ravefan52]

Wonder if NBC still thinks we're not good enough for primetime... Yeah they probably do, but we're used to that. And it's their loss anyway.

[flaccopoe]

NE's young receiving corps is going to get abused by BAL's secondary!

Yea, I just love our matchups in this game.  Across the board.  No excuses at home.

[1/28/01]

We MURDER them!!!!! They should be scared as hell coming to Baltimore!!!!

[Tank 92]

How fitting to have the patsies coming to town with the AFCN title on the line.

 

Watch out tommy, me thinks you got a butt whoopin coming!

[1/28/01]

Hilarious that the pats dont scare me one bit. For the weirdos that think it matters what a fan thinks, calm down. We're (as a team) preparing for a nasty game.

[beanfigger]

The Pats will want this game as much as us.  That will make it all the more awesome when we beat them.  I love considering that they could be in the same position as us, fighting for a playoff spot in the last week.

[codizzle]

Same story

Just WIN
