[News] Ravens Secondary Can Prove Itself In Denver

[Prino61]

a good pass rush can make any secondary look good, just ask the Giants SuperBowl team. If we put pressure on Manning we'll be just fine

Joe is moving real well and should be able to put up three TD'. Along with Tucker they can win with 27-31 points if Pees gives the secondary the chance to play they are capable of playing. They won't be able to dig themselves out if u set them back 8 to 10 yards.

I think a fair bit of the doubts you see here include the likelihood that since Rashaan Melvin and Timmy Jernigan are hurt and not practicing, they are not playing!

 

Jernigan came back yesterday, it's possible he gets rotated in somewhat on Sunday, but Carl Davis can play just as well, with Bilukidi and KLM spelling him.  And then we've got Brandon Williams gobbling up double-teams, Canty/Upshaw setting edges and Suggs/Doom rushing... Jernigan being limited is only a small piece of that d-line being successful.

 

Melvin is the 4th corner, the only way he gets any extended time is if one of the other three goes down, and even then it'll only be in nickel packages.  That's not something to be worried about this week.  And the team may make a roster move to compensate (probably Asa) on Saturday anyway.  But again: 4th CB.  You don't need a lot of nickel packages against Kubiak offenses.
