Shut down our passing game? Ray goes for 100+ yards. Shut down Ray? Joe throws for 350. Stop our O from scoring? Tucker is money and the D has still only allowed 2 passing TDs all year.
Sounds like a great team to me.
Ya, I gotta say I see some holes in this team, but the strengths are OBVIOUSLY covering them up as we are 2 terrible calls inthe same game away from undefeated. This is despite "OUR BEST" only coming in one game.

:word Yup, I couldn't agree more! Playing this poorly, the Ravens have been lucky to eek out these wins. Glad to see the Bengals lose today....gives us some breathing room. I think we're going to need it.

Would you say we were great had we lost? Everyone would be on a major bitching fest right now about how this team sucks.

But they didn't lose, they won. Playing far less than they're capable of on the road and still manage to win the game, cannot be discounted.
Re: Game Thread: Ravens @ Chiefs
Green Bay losing on the road to Indy. A crappy team. And that was a game they were up by a fair bit.
Mm, tastes like perspective.
Re: Game Thread: Ravens @ Chiefs
Getting 9 points against a team that allows 34 PPG is not impressive, win or lose.

Takes the whole team to play the game, if you didn't see the whole team in those other 4 games, maybe you should get a better TV. Ravens this year are a total team that plays hard and does what needs to be done. Bend but don't break is perfect for discribing this team. I like how the team handles the ups and downs that have happened so far this year. The second half adjustment to contain their running game was key and Flacco getting a first down at a crucial point was nice to see. getting a win on the road and their only loss so farby 1 point to the eagles speaks volumes to me. This team did not lose today because they did the right thing in the fourth quarter.
