Five Reasons Why Ravens Will Lose

[ravens27]

[quote name='Ronnie Brown # 23' post='117881' date='Jan 4 2009, 12:20 AM']Regaaurdless the point is that your jerseys will hold more heat against our all white uniforms. In regaurds to our coaching staff vs yours i think they have the ability to outcoach yours but since your staff has been around longer i'd give the advantage to you until Miami's staff is around longer and continues to have this success.[/quote]

We will win, the three headed monster will be to hard for the Dolphins to tame.

I heard this whole "The Ravens will fold from the heat" argument when I went to the opener in Tampa Bay in 2006. We won 27-0.

[ravens27]

I think we have a lot of momentum right now.

What doesn't make sense? Its common science that darker colors retain more heat then lighter colors.

Have you ever been here in August and September? Florida is actually cooler. It was 70 degree's at game time last week, in Baltimore at 4 pm. It can be 20 on Monday and 70 on Friday. Harbs had the team practicing in the bubble with the heat cranked all week.

that is what doesnt make sense sunshine!

[PurpleClawsOfFURY]

it also makes sense that these guys are some of the most athletic people in the world, the coaching staff has us practicing indoors with the heat turned on and that it doesn't even effect us earlier in the year.

IT WILL NOT BE A FACTOR SUNDAY (PERIOD) close this topic because i stopped reading that topic at "1. We will outcoach the Ravens coaching staff"

Its a high of 77 tomarrow in Miami, i don't really get what your trying to say though?

[Moderator 2]

The heat is not an issue. Ravens play in the heat as recently as a week ago in their purple jersey's

I still hate it how most of us are being cocky heading in to the game. You never know, Miami might have secret new plays we aren't prepared for. Confident, but not cocky.

[quote name='T-Sizzle55' post='117604' date='Jan 3 2009, 10:49 PM'][color="#000000"]I like to call this: [color="#4B0082"]"Five reasons not to eat lead paint"[/color]. I have made some corrections to his little essay.

1. We will outcoach the Ravens coaching staff. [color="#4B0082"](You will? We have the "Secretary Of Defense" Rex Ryan and an Offensive Coordinator of the year in 2004 who broke all his scoring records in 2005, so nice they named him twice, Cam Cameron. You fired him and you made him angry, you wouldn't like Cam when he's angry. Bill Parcells is a GM. He should sit at his desk and let Sparano earn his check, that's why they got him).[/color]

[color="#4B0082"](His equation not mine)[/color]
"(Sparano + Bill Parcells + Dan Henning + Pasqualioni) and stack em up against (Harbaugh + Cam Cam + Rex Ryan). I think our guys have a clear edge".
[color="#4B0082"]^This guy has no idea what we do in Baltimore does he?! Do you think we have the #2 defense, #11 in points, #4 in rushing by accident? Whoops 26 INTs in 16 games my bad. John Matsko might have devine powers, we're looking into it.[/color]

2. We will win the turnover battle.[color="#4B0082"] (but we have Ed Reed. I think ya lost!) [/color]We never turn the ball over [color="#4B0082"](Only to Suggs for TDs, but besides that..NEVER!).[/color] The Ravens need turnovers to win. [color="#4B0082"](If we put up TDs then we don't need no stinking turnovers).[/color] Chad's not gonna take any chances [color="#4B0082"](becuase Suggs already made him pay for it with a pick 6?). [/color] He will dink and dunk and be accurate [color="#4B0082"](3 and out!). [/color]Flacco's a rookie, and expect for him to make mistakes [color="#4B0082"](HaHa!!! I was hoping you'd say that. That's what Dallas was expecting, that's what Houston was expecting, that's what the Skins were expecting, they are still expecting, while watching us at home)[/color].

3. Our DBs will make Baltimore one-dimensional [color="#4B0082"](Hi my name is Derrick Mason I make TD catches with one arm. Have we met?). [/color]Our DBs have been playing lights out football. [color="#4B0082"](Wait, hold the phone! You played Brett Favre who was dubbed "An interception waiting to happen" by ESPN and now you have the best 2ndary in the league? You are 25th against the pass. That's lights out football? Put down the glue it kills brain cells.) [/color] I think we'll be able to stop their passing attack and can make them one-dimensional. [color="#4B0082"](I doubt it, but If your DBs block out the sun, then we will run in the shade. -300 reference)[/color]

4. Home Field Advantage/Disrespect. [color="#4B0082"](Sweet I can't wait to hear "Heeeaaaap!!!" shouted in a quiet stadium. Do you know half our team is from Miami? Its gonna be a family reunion!)[/color] This team truly has an us-against-the-world attitude [color="#4B0082"](Hey, that's our line)[/color]. I often roll my eyes at players who play that card like the Patriots, but I think in this case, it is genuinely a motivating factor. I also think the crowd at the game feels the same way [color="#4B0082"](Yeah, that Ray, Reed, and McGahee are going to make you cry)[/color]. I know I will!

5. Dan Carpenter. I trust this dude to make a big kick if needed. He's been clutch all year. He might be the deciding factor.
[color="#4B0082"](If you're leaving it up to your kicker as your X-Fatcor, then you have already lost. What no confidence in Ronnie Brown? So, you think this will be like the Ravens and Steelers game? My friend put the lead paint down and meet my friend reality. If you think the Ravens are all hype then you are mistaken. I'm telling you this because I'm trying to show my opponent some mercy....because my Ravens will NOT!!!)[/color].[/color][/quote]

Baseball players take on all conditions. They play in 120+ degree ovens on the field in the dead of summer and wear head wraps in the playoffs (depending where they're at, of course). Athletes are athletes. I guarantee you that the Ravens would rather play in Miami than Foxborough.

I definetly don't consider Baseball players "athletes" when you can be fat, wear sun glasses, and chew gum during a game, it's not athletic. They just throw balls and hit balls.

[theFRANCHISE]

That list is the reason why we Ravens fans should continue to be as respectful as possible; karma came back to bite the Dolphins fan who came up with it, because they were wrong on all except one. The only one they got right was that the Ravens' offense was essentially one-dimensional (even though Flacco made some clutch plays here and there), but none of that matters when the defense forces five turnovers.

Alot of football players chew gum. And there are also alot of fat football players.

Yeah, Like Ed Reed!!! Why can't it be a defensive player? He's scored more points than most people on offense.

The Ravens rookie QB has

[lupka]

"2. We will win the turnover battle. We never turn the ball over. The Ravens need turnovers to win. Chad's not gonna take any chances. He will dink and dunk and be accurate. Flacco's a rookie, and expect for him to make mistakes."

What a joke.

[Black&Purple]

JUST to re-iterate what I said PRIOR to the game:

[quote name='Black&Purple' post='117212' date='Jan 3 2009, 04:01 PM']They won't turn the ball over? Did they forget the pick 6 the last time we met?

This is the Ravens, not a BS team like they have been used to all season. We force turn overs, and have the most INTs in the league. We WILL get at least 1 INT, mark my words.[/quote]

[theFRANCHISE]

Just to reiterate: we laugh at the list [i]now,[/i] but everyone should please keep in mind that we shouldn't fall into the same trap that fan did. Karma hit their Dolphins, and even if you're not superstitious, I don't want it hitting our Ravens.

In other words...DON'T JINX US! (lol)
