Next Up: Ravens vs Oakland Raiders at M&T Bank Stadium

[Moderator 2]

Can Joe keep getting hit and getting up?

Ronnie Stanley v Khalil Mack. I don't think I've ever been so excited and terrified about a match-up at the same time.

I have this as a trap game but could very well see us winning it

[D_UP]

We have a "don't mess it up" offense. Hopefully defense can get some takeaways.

The Raiders are still phenomenally talented and seem to be a step ahead of the Jags in their rebuild so I wouldn't call this a trap game.

With that said, it looks like today they were 9 yards off conceding 400+ yards a game for three weeks in a row (after giving up over 500 in each of the first two weeks). If Jimmy can slow down Amari enough, and if our front seven can hold up against their OL I think we match up really well with them.

Another "get even" game from last year. Our fans will really get behind them next week. Is 4-0 really possible?  You  better believe it.

[The Raven]

If we were in Oakland, I think we'd take the L, but I think we'll take a W since we're home. Still, they make me nervous. Lot of playmakers on that team.

My wife and I are driving up from from the 757 in VA for this game  Section 126 Row 5. Yes sirrrrr!!!

I'll really like Carr and those Raiders are coming!  Our Ravens are 3-0...coming off of 2 hard fought come from behind road wins in a row and now they will be at home in front of their fans.  Ravens win this!  I know that The Bank will be rocking!  I can't wait!!!

GO RAVENS!!!!

I don't want the burden of a perfect season tbh. I'd rather we get that one painful loss out of the way. But not at home. If Oakland's defense is bad, and our offense gets into a pattern like we did in the first half vs. the Jags, I say we win and control the game.

[OUravensfan]

Would really like to see a comfortable win if that's possible. Not even sure what that looks like anymore

Me too.....me too!  Convincing and comfortable!  Not all of this tight, penalty-aided stuff!  Dominant a game from beginning to the end.

I dont think Mack has a sack yet this season

I want to see a better game from the offense this time.

You're picking a good one to go to, the bank will be rocking at the prospect of going 4-0 after last year. I hope this is the breakout game for the offense, we shall see.

I see a ten to fifteen Rollaids game.

[Ravenseconbeast]

Joe Flacco making horrendous Oakland defense look 'elite' is the only thing Joe will do well on week4.

I predict Flacco will top his previous performance and go for 3 INT 0 TDs and the apologists will start blaming 'the running back and the offensive line' for back to back to back INTs in 1st half.  Then, we are forced to realize we can't do squat with Joe and our offense is (once again) forced to be 1-dimensional and run the rest of the game to kill the clock.   

Blame Cam Cameron, Jim Caldwell, Mark Trestman, and the next OC in 2017.  The results are always the same.

Great bargain we are getting giving Flacco a fat check 2nd time!  Hope you Flacco homers enjoy our tremendous investment on Mr.Flacco!

I think we're going win the next two games and become 5-0.

I'm certainly enjoying the wins, especially the 25 come from behind ones.

Rather that loss come against an nfc team other than the skins

34-3 Eagles in the 4th. 9:30 on the clock.
No need to cross your fingers at this point.

Keeping in mind, every time the Skins have beaten us in the regular season we have gone on to win the Super Bowl.

 

Just sayin'.

[FlocksGottaFeed]

Early match-ups giving us a very slight edge, but an edge none the less..

As absent as our run-game has been - they have a double digit lead in rushing, but our passing defensive numbers more than doubles their performance. It should come-down to elevating our offensive production and defensive play.

Apparently you did not watch Blake Bortles today.

He also didn't watch the game at all... he thinks Flacco played poorly today. Why that is I have no idea.

To me, Raiders and Jags are very similar to each other. Large amount of talent on offense (a bit more in Oakland I think), two very young defenses that have been vastly underperforming this season.

Oakland legitimately has been arguably the worst defense in the league so far this season. It would be very disappointing if we can't improve on our offensive production at home against what looks like a weaker defense.

He thinks Flaccos is the king of overthrows and underthrows and blames him for the second INT(first one is his fault, but even then lucky tip)

[BmoreBird22]

David Amerson and Sean Smith had excellent games today against the Titans. Karl Joseph and Reggie Nelson were also pretty impressive. 

Marc Trestman better be prepared.

[Edgar]

We owe these guys. Should be able to throw on them.
