Week 1 - Baltimore Ravens vs. Cincinnati Bengals

[codizzle]

My god please start out solid flacco

Cannot stand the hate he constantly gets... I stray far away from arguments as much as possible but I've found myself not being able to hold back on twitter with some of these "experts"

If we have no turnovers, I guarantee victory. Hold onto the ball, boys. Hold onto the ball.

I think we score a touchdown on our opening drive. Deep bomb from Flacco would be awesome. I havent seen one in awhile. 

 

Also screw the experts. Flacco don't care and neither should we.

[beanfigger]

Apparently, the wise guys in Vegas are betting the Bengals. Last I saw they got the line down to even in the matchup. No purple faith.

Less than 24 hours boys and girls! Leggoooo

Why is it every other team gets respect at home except us?

Why is it that you people give a crap?

I'm in for a long morning tomorrow, with the Tall Blacks playing their round of 16 qualifier at 2am and then the Ravens at 5am if my time zones are correct.

 

Should be well worth it though. I really like how our offence has looked in the preseason and I'm looking forward to seeing how it goes with live ammo. Joe Flacco with an open playbook promises to be a stunning new experience. I also love how our front seven matches up to their OL, and if we come to play as expected then Andy Dalton's in for a long day.

 

Honest pick: Ravens win by two scores (36-24 doesn't sound out of the question). Homer pick: Ravens bang out 50 and put the AFC North on notice.

I think this game will be relatively low scoring. I think we'll do well to contain them on defense and our offense will struggle to launch initially. I'd guess 23 - 16 Ravens

13 hooooooouuuurrrssss!!!!!!

[Natural Born Hitters]

I   CAN   NOT   WAIT   FOR   1PM   TOMORROW!

The last time we won the Superbowl, we opened up against the Bengals at home and crushed them, it was a sweet game, Ed Reed got a pick 6 and everything.

 

I have done this the past few seasons and will do it again this season. What is everyone's prediction of what our first offensive play will be? I am thinking a play action pass to Pita.

 

RAVENS!!

RAVENS!!

A six-yard completion to Steve Smith off a slant. Gotta go for the exciting stuff.

It's nice to actually not know what it'll be though, as opposed to wondering whether the RB will run between the centre and the left guard or the centre and the right guard.

[Natural Born Hitters]

Exactly man, who knows what we will see tomorrow. Even with pre-season, we only saw a smidgen of what Kubiak is going to do with our offense, so it's very exciting this year.

 

Come on Ravens Nation, let's hear what you think will be our first offensive play will be for tomorrows game!!

[allblackraven]

Pierce up the middle for 6y gain because we've fixed our OL and running game.

[Gordo52]

Ugh, can't sleep! It feels like Christmas.

6:30 am getting off work wired

We Ready

[codizzle]

Pierce off LT for a couple yard gain for first play...If we get that first first down, we most definitely will take a shot downfield..

I'd say Torrey for a slant somewhere then next set of downs, Torrey on a stop n go with smith in the slot drawing the safety help...

Now if that all happens on the first drive I'm wagering everything

[ludy51]

I say we run BP right up the middle. Physicle, hard nosed football.

[Tank 92]

Let's make a splash for the new season!

 

Being a bass player I luvs that purple pool!

[ratedr]

Even if we don't win, I just want us to look good to give me hope for future games.

[beanfigger]

Our LBs who have been dubbed great cover guys will be tested today against two solid TEs and an underrated cross-pattern runner who Dalton says is "always open" in Sanu, not to mention Bernard.
