Re: Predict the Ravens Record
BurghSouth banned already. The Bucs have the record for most consecutive road losses and BS has the record for most quickly banned.

Re: Predict the Ravens Record
lol about BS. That is why this place will be such a great board.
I would say our record depends on how our division does this year. (duh) But this year the division winner (Cinci) has the potential to bomb and the SB Champs are not what they were last year.
I say:
10-6 to 11-5
This is a tough division. We also play the NFC South and the AFC West. 2 very tough divisions. With some luck we could pul-off a 12-4 year, maybe. One small step at a time folks."This year, our attitude when we’re on the field is we’re attacking, we want to put points on the board and then let our defense pin their ears back and have at it."

If they do much better than 8-8, then I am overjoyed.we aren't just loyal, we are obsessed. and we are violently so. we are baltimore, and we are the epitome of dysfunctionality.

Re: Predict the Ravens Record
This is a tough one to predict. It seems as though we have all the right tools to make a serious run. It also appears that we have the right attitude this year as well.
However, I'm not betting the house based on what I've seen so far in 2 pre-season games.
If we can get a good start in the first half of the season, we'll likely make the playoffs. However, if we struggle early, the 2nd half of the schedule is brutal, and could keep us out.
That being said, 10-6 or 11-5 is certainly possible. At the very least, I do think we make the playoffs, because I think the rest of the AFC is a bit weaker this year.

Re: Predict the Ravens Record
Ugh, I SO hate these threads. THere are just too many factors to weigh.
11-5 is very possible, but I am hoping for 12-4 or better. 8-8 on the downside.

Re: Predict the Ravens Record
If the RAVENS can stay healthy, and can prove they can win on the road then I think that 10-6 is certainly feasible.
But, I am not getting my hopes up yet.

Re: Predict the Ravens Record
I want to see them play the Bucs before I'd make any real predictions on a W-L record, but I believe they have the makings of a playoff team and hopefully to get deep into the playoffs. Just gotta hope they stay healthy and the O-line isn't a sieve.

Re: Predict the Ravens Record
We have a tendency to start each season with a sloppy first game. I can't remember the last time we won the first game of the season. We must go into Tampa Bay ready to kick the living heck out of the Bucs. I have seen the Bucs this preseason, and they are a beatable team.
It's a new season! It's a new day!

Re: Predict the Ravens Record
It will all come down to injuries. Looking at the schedule the Tampa game will be a big test. Many teams within our division are already having problems. The Bengals need to buy jail uniforms as they can't stay out of trouble. The Steelers will see this year how much the BUS meant to them. Hey the Browns they speak for themselves. Getting back to the Ravens I'm looking at 11-5 or 10-6 and have us making the playoffs. I also look for us to have a playoff game here this year which will be great for all of us. The driving force this year will be veterans who know time is running out and they will play with determination to get to the Super Bowl. MaNair was within 1 yard of being a Super Bowl champion and that will make his fire burn. Let's just hope injuries don't kill the dreams of a successful season.
GO RAVENS

This O-line still needs mucho help!
