Let them yap
The broncos have been irrelevant since the turn of the millenium. They have had a good year in a weak division. They have manning but are still the same broncos. They beat us when we were at our lowest during the season after 2 hard fought steeler games and a west coast trip and a tough loss to the skins. We had alot of makeshift going on defense and a change in OC. Let them run their yaps as it will be short lived then back to the Jake Plummers of the world in a few years. They can only hope to be like the Ravens and to be the best you have to beat the best. We have been to the show every year for 5 straight and are always a tough out. Their idiotic fans are living in the moment where as we are in the moment every year. I have faith that our experience in playoffs will pay off. They were blown off the field the last time they played a play off game in NE and that was the same defense we play saturday. My gut feeling is we put up points early and deflate their defense.

Checked some stats earlier, since 1996, the broncos have played the Ravens 10 times(including this year). They only have beat the Ravens 4 times in those 1o games. They need this game badly, hope the Ravens deny them this win.

As Ray has said before. Yap yap yap yap, Ya gotta buckle up the chin strap. And this game, he is buckling up his.
Not bad for a RUNNING BACK!!! Now that is funny.

Re: Let them yap
I love the guy and how he plays, but hopefully Von Miller is more focused on his new shoes this week than getting after flacco.

I really really want to beat Manning and his adopted team.

Re: Let them yap
History in football means nothing. Once the game begins all is forgotten and it is a battle. Denver had a good team that lost the AFCCG to Pittsburgh in 2006 or 2007. Last time they had a real good team and some mediocre .500 or first round exit types after that. The Jake the Snake team.

Re: Let them yap
There's a lot of things going against the Ravens this game:
1. Manning hasn't lost to us since 2001
2. Denver has won 11 straight
3. Ravens are on a short week, vs Broncos on 2 week rest
4. High altitude game on the road
I remember another time we seemed to have EVERYTHING against us...2010 Wild Card game.
We were set to play NE in the playoffs. We had never beaten NE. NEVER! Not in a regular season game, not in a playoff game. Joe Flacco had been dealing with a mysterious injury he claimed he didn't have. And to boot, we were travelling to NE. Oh btw, we had Greg "Vanilla" Mattison against Tom Brady.
What happened? 83 yard run for TD on first play. Turnover by Tom Brady, Turnover by Tom Brady, Turnover by Tom Brady...We came out and absolutely STUNNED that crowd. It was so over, Joe only attempted 10 passes in that game. For 4 completions.
It's all on a bit of luck, but I'm of the opinion when one team has SO much going for it, THAT is where you have to guard against an upset. Rememeber this year, when Steelers came in we were on the verge of setting a record for consecutive wins vs division, and we were at home, where we ALWAYS won, and we were playing Charlie Batch....And we lost.
I just think when a team seems to have the odds stacked against them, you have to be careful, because that's just a couple propane tanks and a lit match under them..

“When I think of a Baltimore Raven - we go in there, we take your lunch box, we take your sandwich, we take your juice box, we take your applesauce, and we take your spork and we break it. And we leave you with an empty lunch. That’s the Baltimore Raven way.” - Steve Smith Sr.
Call me a Special Teams coach again. I dare you! I double dare you, MFer!

RR2-
You said (in part), "...there are [sic] no one on that team [I assume you refer to the 1996 Ravens?] who is also on this team's roster."
Wanna bet? ;)
