Apart from the Clowns win, which I'm not overly bothered about anyway, I'd say we had a hell of a day today. Ben and Bill sucking against the Raiders just now was the icing on the cake.
I think I'll sleep well tonight!

Actually, the Clowns win was good for us. Gives us an edge over the Jets should it come down to a tiebreaker for a wildcard. Everyone knows the Clowns aren't going anywhere, so let them have their 2-5 record.
Additionally, it gives us more ammo against Squealer fan, now that they're sharing the cellar with the lowly Clowns.
Remember all the crap we had to hear last year when we were down there with the Clowns?
:thumbup:
Ravens win, Bungles lose, Steelers lose to the sucky Raiders :laugh:
Week 8 was great.
Steelers and Redskins at 2-5!!! :thumbup:
Not to mention it hurts their draft position.Quote:

A win is a win even if we let the Saints have a little comeback in the fourth. We have to stop the conservative playing when we have a lead. There is no reason the Ravens couldn't keep scoring points in the fourth and really put this game away.
I agree. :happy: I'll sleep well tonight!Quote:

Satisfactory! I would call that Above AverageQuote:

The problem is that the running game (for whatever reason) simply isn't strong enough to close out and shorten games anymore, therefore the pass almost has to be part of the equation.Quote:
