Let's knock those cats back into the jungle where they belong.

[Moderator 2]

I would love that pool in my back yard lol

It will be after Thanksgiving when the Bengals implode.

[RavensPunkXVX]

I mean, if we can't beat the declining Bengals, we probably shouldn't even be mentioning the playoffs.

i also get tired of hearing that this defense has Flaccos number. Shouldn't he have figured something out by now? 

 

[Rav'n Maniac]

With Jimmy not practicing all week again and now being listed as doubtful, the secondary will really need to pick it up this week. Can't have the lapses we had against the boys.

[Wildabeast88]

I hope Pees learned what a TE is and the concept of covering him and not letting him run up and down the middle of the field. Without Green and Bernard, Eifert will be a huge factor on offense. 

[Wildabeast88]

This is a must win on so many levels. Not being able to beat Cincy the last few years, division lead as well as possibly knocking the Bengals out of the race. We can't afford a loss here assuming NE will beat us. 2 losses means 9-7 at best that isn't going to cut it.

Anybody know what jerseys we're wearing?  Are we going traditional purple or breaking out the blacks?

Just win somehow and keep me trying to believe this team has a chance to make the playoffs. 

[Tank 92]

9 or 10 in a row, one at a time. First win starts here.

 

One can dream......right?   lol

Need to key in on Eifert. He could draw mismatches.

Hopefully, we'll see a major black attack today.

[Rav'n Maniac]

Wow, it's about time they sat Z. Smith. Dume takes the reins.

Yeah, that's about as much as we can ask for at this point. Kinda strange though them sitting both Smith and Correa, makes us a little light at OLB for the game.

[ravens rule]

Whose ready for 3 hours of torture lol. I can see us winning something like 24-13.

[Ravensfan23]

If the Ravens can come out and play like it has the last 3 weeks I think this game is a pretty convincing win. Obviously none of the last 3 weeks were complete games on either side of the ball, but if they can put it together today, I think it sets up well for the remainder of the season. Imo the Bengals have always been a bit of an immature team and it wouldn't take much to get them off their game in bigger games. This is a must win for them and basically the same for the Ravens. I convincing win for the Ravens could send the Bengals spiraling out of control. Because of the recent struggles vs the Bengals the back half of the scheduled looked very tough. However if the Ravens can put the Bengals away today, that makes things a bit easier down the stretch.

I want to see the run game alive and well today. Heavy run and playaction should be more than enough to keep this Bengals defense on their heels and allow the defense to hunt.

I don't think it'll be torture. If the offense can clean up the penalties I think they could have a great day. The no huddle uptempo offense has had success the last 2 weeks and the Ravens would be foolish not to use it today. Stay uptempo with plenty of running and playaction and I think it could be a huge day for the offense.

Good observation. I'm hoping they come out in the hurry-up like they did against them a few years ago at the Bank. Man that was sweet to watch.

What makes you think they will clean up the same mistakes that plagued us all season. I agree the bengles stink especially on defense but we have not taken advantage of bad defenses this year (jets, raiders, redskins).

That's why I said if. The offense is much different than it was for those games. The oline is playing better and the running game is improving. Marty is a lot more creative and the passing game is steadily improving. It just hasn't come together yet but there are signs. Will it happen today, we'll see. 

[The Mom Gene]

We just need to focus on what's important.  We can do this!

[ratedr]

Haven't beaten the Bengals since 2013. Need to change that today.

[ratedr]

Jimmy is a good player but extremely unreliable.
