They know Cam has held Flacco back. We need to come out with the WILL to win.. We need to WANT IT MORE. And the only way we can prove that is with the passing game. And maybe a TD or 2 from the D would help [/quote]

I worry about this very scenario... We know the Ravens will try to run the ball.. It is what they have been doing. I think they will try to hit some deep passes early.. Catch us off guard.

Kinda like Rivers did yesterday on that first drive.

[quote name='ravensgirlx88' post='127188' date='Jan 11 2009, 10:52 PM']Lets not forget we have a pair of fresh legs on the bench just DYING to prove himself in Ray Rice!..

And we all know. He can be pretty dangerous too![/quote]

What's up with Rice? I saw him out for one or two plays when I was @ the game in nashville, but no carries or catches -- are they just being conservative with him to catch up from his lost practice time a few weeks back or what? I think we'll need all 3 backs against the steelers...

and as for this thread... fast willie parker (fwp) will have a long day... we'll def force ben to throw and make mistakes... chargers weren't able to get enough pressure on ben and played too soft of a zone D... he may have looked good yesterday, but I don't think we'll see a repeat this coming Sunday

We have shut down parker for some time now..even in our 5-11 season he couldnt run the ball...but this is a team game so its not just parker we have to worry about...mewelde moore has been doing great as a backup and now the have a bigger back in russell

Chris Johnson was faking it pretty good before he got hurt.

I don't mean to state the obvious, but Parker's performance depends on our O-line. We all know how that goes. I wouldn't be surprised to see more carries by Moore.
