[News] Ravens-Cowboys Could Be A Statement Game For Baltimore

[Minionhunter]

I keep hearing by some Ravens dont have a chance. Get real. Name 1 great defense cowboys have faced yet?? None..until Ravens. Ravens shutdown Zeke, Force Dak into tough decisions Ravens win cause Cowboys d is swiss cheese.

Sidenote Bungals lost just now. Also helping us out

Eagles. And the Cowboys struggled against them especially Dak. Dak and Elliot look great because of that amazing O-line. When the Eagles took it away they struggled. We will take away the run. The rest will be where the game will play out.

[The Greek]

the defense will be exhausted if the offense does not keep them fresh and score early for once!!

[ravenwildman]

All the pundits give the Ravens absolutely no chance of beating the Cowboys in Dallas.......heard this before in 2012 in Denver if I remember correctly, Ravens have the talent, go get the win and help solidify the path to the playoffs! GO RAVENS! CB 25

[whobilly]

It's looking like 9 wins will be enough for the AFC North. We MUST WIN our final three home games along with finding one win on the road against Dallas, New England, Pittsburgh, Cinnci, It may well come down to the Christmas Day game against the Steelers that determines the Division.

[Rav'n Maniac]

Pitt gave Marty the blueprint to attack their D. Dallas was cheating up to stop Bell and the run. In doing so they left the middle of the field wide open and Ben attacked it often with success. We have to do the same.

Nobody in the media or on BR.com has mentioned that the only team the Cowboys have never beaten is the Ravens . Let's kept streak going this Sun!

And I think rightfully so.  Both teams are vastly different than those other games (2000-2004-2008-2012)  I personally can't stand when people compare results for quite a while ago, acting like that is somehow indicative of how the current results will be.  The focus needs to be on the PRESENT Ravens and PRESENT Cowboys.

Another thought might be to bring Camp up for this one. He could be deadly out of the slot across the middle. Dallas wouldn't be expecting it cause there is no film on him this year.

I think we have the players to beat the Cowboys if they play to what we have seen from them. I think we have finally come to the realization that Joe needs to be choreographed with his footwork and not let him do as much ad lib as he has been doing. Three steps fire it out, five steps, fire it out. Accuracy with Joe is a work in progress. I wonder if it is accuracy as much as just knowing where to put it. I have seen too many post patterns where the receiver is cutting diagonally across the field and it is green grass in front of him and he throws over his head to his back side. It is the identical throw he made to Wallace for the first touchdown of the season. He had the exact same pass numerous times and throws the ball in the wrong place. Most recently, he had Aiken wide open in front of Haden and he missed him. Missed a touchdown just sitting and waiting to happen. Even after 8 or 9 years, Joe is still like coaching a rookie. All those things he learns he quickly forgets and the OC has to constantly stay in his ear. Watch your footwork, watch you mechanics, lead your receivers, quick drifting to your back foot, change out of a bad play, pay attention to the play clock. Same messages over and over to the same QB for 8 years and he is lazy, if your not on him, he will revert. He needs a dedicated QB coach like Dennison with the authority of the OC to get on him and keep him focused on those things that are important. I love Flacco, but I love my children too and it doesn't stop me from telling them to clean their rooms over and over and over if they don't do it. I don't judge them, I just make them do it and find a way to get them to do it on their own. Flacco is like my child.

I think that's why you're seeing Waller in there now more. I know that Gilmore has been out injured, but Waller is the bigger and stronger TE. I think we use him for that stuff. There is actually film on Campanaro from last year and the year before in Tampa. I wouldn't sell them short on finding film on any of these guys.

Well, lets see, the FACTS are that the Cowboys are 8-1. Meanwhile the Ravens have played exactly one decent half of offensive football in the last 6 games. The defense is not the problem, although we have seen improvement there where Young has replaced all the failed veteran projects. This type of imbalance may win some games against lesser or equal opponents, but it won't against the true "elite" of the NFL. Glad both Pitt and Cincy lost so we do have room for failure, but, sooner or later, the Ravens will have to put it together if they hope to win the division. Beating up on Cleveland, while satisfying, means nothing.

...we need this game, and we need Ray Lewis to come by training camp and help pump these boys up! I'm so tired of hearing the cowboy fans all year talking trash. Today one of them was talking smack and even said "Joe Flacco's a bum!" I wanted to punch him in the mouth so bad, but we were at work. If Joe is a bum, he's our bum and only we can call him that. lol

At least our 20 mil man is playing while their bum is collecting checks while getting back rubs on the sideline lol

The win against Cleveland means nothing? Looks like 9 wins could take the division so EVERY win means something.

Bring up Camp, release Hester and pray that Camp can stay healthy for a game or two.

Waller is an inch taller than Gilmore but Gilmore is stronger and heavier.

If the Ravens can win 4 more games and get to 9-7, l believe that would be enough to win the division. If we can beat the Cowboys (that will be a statement), the Dolphins, Eagles, and the Bengals at home that should do it. We could afford to lose at New England, Pittsburgh, and Cincinatti, even though l believe we could beat Pittsburgh at Christmas, so the Ravens could be 10-6.

True but if he is not activated til Saturday do you really expect them to research film on him at that point in time, maybe.

? He knows how to play football, isn't. Throwing up prayers instead of throwing out of bounds. Prescott is playing better right now.

...we're always the underdog in big games anyway. The way I see it we do stand a pretty good chance. The number # ranked run defense against the number #1 ranked top rusher in the NFL. The immovable object vs. the irresistible force! I see it as being a low-scoring game, since our defense has now officially gelled. We keep Zeke Elliot out of the end-zone and we stand a chance. And having said that, that will keep the game close throughout; and with Tucker putting up points with field goals (like last night with Seattle & the Patriots) that'll give our offense a chance to click and get on-track. We tend to come out fast and fizzle out toward the end but for once I'd like to see us come out slow and come on toward the end and just win baby!!

How about we play well all four quarters for once!?

Damn, 3 major errors I caught on this lil article. First of all, we won 28-7 not 21-7. Second of all, the Bengals are 3-4-1 not 4-5-1. and last but not least, the Steelers are only 1 game behind us not 1 1/2. SMH

Well we own the tiebreaker over the steelers and have a better divisional record so we are more than a game ahead of them.. 

I hate obj with a passion but last night was the only time you'll ever catch me rooting for him and the giants. Can't believe they pulled it out. Makes me even madder that we were only one play away from beating them and eli did it again on 4th down. Any one of those games against Oakland, Washington , the giants or jets right now would be so nice to have in the win column.we were so close in every single one. A 2 1/2 game cushion just sounds so much better. Damnit.

[Crusader]

Its all on the offense! The special team need to play like they have and the defense must pride itself on stopping the run they will have a good chance but that all depends on the offense getting first downs and Jimmy and the secondary not acting lost like in New York.

No it isn't! This is a team sport.

[gettin real]

And Remember the Ravens are only NFL team the Cowboys have NEVER beat, let's keep it like that, GO RAVENS!

[stampedehero]

We need 4thQ Browns game play for four quarters against the Cowboys

Just keep telling yourself that but if this offense goes three an out often the defense will get tired.
