Joe Flacco and this Ravens offense are about to go off.

If we were playing on the road, I'd agree with this. The Ravens are just really tough at home which we all know.

I'm hoping the game is put away with time enough to see Tandon and B. Pierce get some significant time

Actually, the Browns don't get more rest. Keep in mind that they have to fly to Baltimore... Bc

Although I expect them to win the more I think about it ,we could be in for sloppy performance by the Ravens. They had alot emotionally invested in the last game for a variety of reasons. Football is part of physical, part mental. They just might be a little mentally drained. Let's hope it's effect is minimal.

I like him. I was hoping he would hit the free agent market but the Browns really paid top dollar to keep him. He's clearly the leader of that defense.

Not Joe. He has no emotions! :D

This. Traveling starts from the time one leaves their house to the time they check in to their hotel. No matter how much distance we are talking it still takes up the bulk of the day. Traveling on a short week will affect one's mental and physical preparation.

There is familiarity here. This game very well could be an ugly divisional game.

Familiarity to an extent. The Ravens are very familiar with the Steelers. And the Bengals are building a much more stable team.

But the Browns? I have no clue how Weeden, Richardson, whoever is replacing Massoqui, whoever is replacing Haden, etc., etc....is going to do under the national TV lights.

I'm book marking this thread, all the people on this thread that are going on about how the Ravens will blow the browns out, and how the offense will light things up all based on officials being back....

Please for the love of all that is good if i see any of you going on about how the ravens are bad, or how Cam is the devil on any other thread, i'll have to ask you to please hush up, and revert back to this thread thank you.

Thats the problems with extremes, knowing good and well we haven't had a crazy good game vs the browns in forever. We shall see.

Yup, I have a feeling there might be a lot of disappointed posters here if the team struggles tonight, which is certainly. Possible. I will take an ugly win and like it
