Skins vs Ravens prediction thread
Well this has to be considered another code red. With the Cowboys playing well, and the Eagles playing even better I am not pinning any post season hopes on winning a weak division anymore. Also, this is one of the games, based on our schedule, that I would consider a must win. I think the Ravens are not as good as a 3-1 record would indicate. They squeaked past three very mediocre teams.
Skins - 28 Ravens - 17 Going to be 3-2 with the Eagles coming to town. Could not have asked for more after the Dallas meltdown was over. HTTR! |

Re: Skins vs Ravens prediction thread
Baltimore secondary is terrible so there is opportunity to score through the air...we need to be prepared to get run against cause Baltimore isn't a great running team, but their philosophy generally is to grind on the ground and big play with Steve Smith or the re-emerging Mike Wallace.

Re: Skins vs Ravens prediction thread
Totally agree. These are not the Ravens of the past. I'm going to take tons of shit for this, but I don't think the Ravens are much better than the Browns. Flacco is what separates those two teams. Defense a shell of what it once was. Offense has... Steve Smith? Norman can match up on smaller receivers, so while I do worry about the run a bit, their offensive line isn't as good as the Browns (weird to say).
EDIT: Just checked some stats because I'm speaking only on the eye test. They're #1 overall in defense? I'm SHOCKED.

If KC is in a great day we can pull off this one, their offense is average in everything and they're not sure where they're going at RB... HTTR, this is winnable, hard one, but winnable, I say ravens<giants...

Re: Skins vs Ravens prediction thread
Trap game is bit of an inside joke... seems that almost every week someone likes to call it a trap game. |

Re: Skins vs Ravens prediction thread
I could see us squeaking by for a win, but Im not expecting it. The Ravens are contenders year in and year out, they might not be as good as Denver etc. this year but we're still a level below
Ravens 31, Skins 27 |

They went 5-11 last year.....so speaking just very recent history we are more contenders than them. Obviously they have been more competitive over the last decade or two, but these current teams are a different story.... |

Re: Skins vs Ravens prediction thread
Coaching makes a difference and the Ravens have a proven coach.

Re: Skins vs Ravens prediction thread
I predict that if Kerrigan, Breeland, & Cravens can't suit up, they don't beat the Ravens on the road. This defense struggles enough when fairly healthy, let alone with three key guys out. 30-23 Baltimore
I predict if we get these guys back for Sunday, then it's a WIN despite the fact that this team has only won three or more games in a row two times since 2008 (uggh)... 27-20 Washington I also predict that at least one Redskins fan gets their ass kicked in the parking lot, win or lose. |
