I voted like to even it out for you. Don't take it personal, must be a Texans fan. lol

Lol I'm not, but I AM nervous for this game though.

He will be fresh and ready during the playoffs.

No turnovers and no dumb penalties, don't get beat by trick plays, no wasted timeouts, no stupid red flag challenges, Sizzle-Doom-McPhee-Jernigan do your thing! Go Ravens!

Didn't mean to neg. that...  it happens on tablets...  those little red and green buttons don't always behave.

Poor Arthur brown . Ozzie please trade him so he can start somewhere else

Poor Arthur brown . Ozzie please trade him so he can start somewhere else

 

He is next in line after Daryl Smith retires. Mosley is better and Smith is more experience in leading the linebackers. His time till come. 

[ravensdfan]

I'm wondering if we go pass heavy early and try out the deep threat. Things not really associated with Kubiak's time in Houston.

 

Please don't defer if we win the toss too. Tired of watching our defense fail off the bat.

[robbie29]

Go Ravens. Just make sure you have more points than the Texans when the final whistle blows. That's all we fans ask.

[The Mom Gene]

Let's get this thing started... I'm getting anxious.

[bioLarzen]

Poor Arthur brown

 

Why "poor"? He's apparently not good enough to make the team - so he doesn't.

 

I'd rather say poor Ravens, spending a second-rounder on him...

[The Mom Gene]

The pool pic???

The ONLY exception....

[robbie29]

I hope the Ravens take Keenum seriously. That may sound strange, but a terrible QB backed by a strong defense can still beat you. I clearly (and painfully) remember when 38-year old backup QB Charlie Batch and the Steelers came into M&T Bank in 2012 and beat us. Let's not allow a tragedy like that to happen today in Houston please.

IIFC, we were up 13-3 at halftime against the Steelers and then good ole Cam abandoned the run. Let us also keep in mind that the last time the Ravens were in Houston, 43-13 happened.

...taking too long. I found myself over on FB playing mindless games!

 

...c'mon kickoff!

Playoffs for us start today.

Freaking San Fran. If they managed to hold that 21 point lead I wouldn't be nervous at all. I also hate when everyone picks us to win.

[ellicottraven]

Can't wait to win this game...

Man they made me go through the same feeling as I did when the Chargers beat us... again I knew if you gave somebody of the calibre of Rivers 4 downs to get 10 yards, there wasn't much defenses could do....

[Gordo52]

Go Ravens! Go Chiefs!

[52520Andrew]

Here we go

[kennethyamini1989]

Loving that we control our own destiny,but it stinks to know we had a good shot at a bye if it werent for the injuries to the secondary.

I watched Rivers carve them up, just like he did with us...  Wasn't surprised at all.

[757RavensFan]

Defense up first!! Lets go!!

[Doomville]

wow

[ellicottraven]

Why am I nervous right now??

[757RavensFan]

Just read a tweet that the stadium is half empty 2 min before the game. 

[Challenge Accepted]

Already doe

[PuRock]

That was a strong start.
