Brian Billick's famous quote from 2001
"'When you go in the lion's den, you don't tippy toe in — you carry a spear, you go in screaming like a banshee, you kick whatever doors in, and say, 'Where's the SOB?' If you go in any other way you're gonna lose.'"
-Brian Billick, 1/7/01
This quote couldn't be anymore relevant for next Sunday's game as well. The Ravens need to stay aggressive and take chances for the full 60 minutes, if they do that then I truly believe they will come out on top.90% of the game is half mental

Huh?
The "lion's den" was Titans Stadium ... this week's game is being played in Baltimore.
In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T
came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

Re: Brian Billick's famous quote from 2001
If I went into a lion's den I think I actually would tippy-toe up next to the lion, then spear it in its neck before it even knew I was there/woke up/had a chance to retaliate...
ANYWAY, the important thing is you eventually have to spear it. Last year we lacked that "spear" mentality, letting teams hang around and beat us at the last second. Hopefully Pagano's defense and Flacco's new fire are the spears we've been lacking.My Ravens Blog: Brittany Rants About Football
