**Spoiler** 2007 Ravens schedule

[Admin Steve]

Two December night games.

What moron in the NFL scheduling department thinks that we grow palm trees in Baltimore?:grbac:

I'm ready. I went to Orioles Opening Day. Bloody Cold!

[Gabrosin]

A six game stretch with three divison games followed by San Diego, New England, and Indy... that could be utterly miserable for us. Fortunately, we get four of the six at home. I wish we could look forward to an easy finish after that, but a road trip to Seattle is never a pleasant possibility, and we all know how tough Pittsburgh can be when both teams are in contention late in the year.

Never has a schedule put more emphasis on starting fast... if we're hovering around .500 going into the bye, we sure as hell won't repeat as division champs, and would be lucky to wind up with a wildcard. The good news is, we could easily go on a huge 6-1 or 7-0 run to open the season, with only the Cincy road game looking like an uphill struggle. All six other teams are very beatable, and we get the only playoff team (Jets) at home. Let's hope we can pull out to a big lead in the division race early.

Can't wait for the season!

Thats pretty much what I said, I guess we are a "southern" city now? You know global warming and all.....:bag: I can easily see me missing one of those games because first and foremost I'm MOM!

That fricken playoff game in Jan was warmer

I'm just glad that we dont have any home games the week of Thanksgiving and xmas. Id rather be in my house watching the games during the holidays.

as far as spending time with the family on the weekends, check this out:

From Sept 24th thru Nov 10th we play ONE home game.

From Nov 19th-Dec 29th we play a sunday night and monday night game...so the weekend is technically all open.

Just huge stretches of no sunDAY football.

It's real football, not the arena league. I for one LOVE a cold night game. I was against the fence at the very top for the GB monday night game 2 seasons ago, and loved every second of it. It seperates us real fans from the pretenders in places like Indy.

Or it could be our chance to make a statement and control our own destiny.

LOL, when I saw the schedule I knew Ted would have his dander up.

The only thing I don't like is the timing of the SD and SEA games. I wanted to go to one of those. But where they fall on the schedule is gonna pretty much kill that.

I know I'll be at the Buffalo game and I'd suggest alot of fans should go. They didn't sell out the last few home games last year.

Hop on a SW flight Sunday morning and fly back Sunday night.

We could get a shitload of Ravens fans in that stadium.

Otherwise, tough schedule. We knew it would be.

That sounds rough. I'd have to at least stay over for one night.

55 minute flight.

Done it a ton of times.

Many people drive for a longer period of time for home games.

Hehehehehehe...

That was the first thing that came to my mind as well when I first heard the schedule on the radio today.

As soon as the Mrs. called me the first thing out of my mouth was that T must be spazzing out right now.

Personally, I hate all the prime time games.

I like my football (particurally home games) on Sundays at 1:00.

Don't like my routine altered, and those night games seriously alter the routine.

Secondly, we don't normally fare real well on the national spot light prime time games which is of higher concern to me then my routine.


Purplepoe,

I might be interested in doing that Buffalo day trip with you.

The year after we won the Superbowl I did a one day trip to Cincy.

Flew up in the early AM, flew back in the PM after the game.

Connecting flights at Pittsburgh both ways.

That was a damn long day right there!!

The Elvis Grbac debacle that day just made it even worse.

A one hour direct flight each way to/from Buffalo sounds like a very doable day trip to me for the right flight price.

Any idea how far Orchard Park is from the airport?
