[quote=coggs;400113]Is there much of a Skins-Ravens rivalry? Giants-Jets is pretty non-existant. I used to have a Football computer game that allowed you to create your own league. I remember I went East-West ala hockey and basketball. Put Jets and Giants in same division along with Skins and Ravens, san fran oakland, any of your natural geographic rivalries.[/quote]

I think there is. I go to a pretty newly co-ed school (used to be all girls, so its still mostly girls there) and those chicks are nuts for the Ravens and they absolutely cannot stand anything that has to do with the Redskins and they aren't very classy about it either.

I think there would be more of a rivalry if the Ravens were actually in the NFC. Then it would be pretty interesting.

But I think it's kinda like how when the Orioles play the Nats. Its just a rivalry because the teams are so close in location. Kinda like "Whose the best beltway team".

I mean don't people in NY lose their minds when the Yanks play the Mets?

I like the schedule, but then again teams can change in one off season. Last year did you fear a team like 8-8 pittsburgh? No. But you do now. And last Year Baltimore was
13-3 and they finished 5-11. Out of those 2 divisions, I'd expect that we get at least one team with a large improvement.

skins-ravens is a VERY one way rivalry. baltimore cares, DC doesn't know the raven's actually exist.

Do mine eyes deceive me or is the streak broken?

Are we really NOT playing the Bucs next season?

The away game at Seattle isn't looking so promising anymore, unless of course there is major revenge on tap.

Whaaaaa?! You mean all the people who jumped ship after the Ravens won the Super Bowl actually think we have a rivalry?

I don't mind the Ravens at all, I don't even mind that they have fans of their team. My limited experience with Baltimore as a city was a very bad one.

If I re-up my lease in September we could tailgate in my backyard and then walk over to the raven's purple mess of a stadium.

Re: 2008 schedule looks pretty good....so far
 

We might go 11-5 but lose 3 of those to our division.

Re: 2008 schedule looks pretty good....so far

EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!!! I figured they had become a division rival....just how many years in a row did we play them???

Re: 2008 schedule looks pretty good....so far
 

Sorry I just remembered the Seahawks game in 2005 was in FedEx we won 20-17 in overtime..

Re: 2008 schedule looks pretty good....so far
 

Arizona at home again. That sucks. I would rather have Seattle.
