The Ravens have put up a lot of points on better defenses.

Can LJ go score for score with Mahomes if he goes off with how the Ravens o-line has looked is my biggest concern.

This is the NFL, and almost or 'nearly beat' doesn't get you anything. Lets hope for a good game!

Yeah I know it’s the NFL. I was just saying the games were close, it wasn’t like the Ravens got blown out of the stadium.

Interior push is key in this game. I feel like our OLB’s just need to play a contain game and not over pursue. I disagree that we’re gonna get shredded on the backend. I’m more worried about Edwards-Helaire

Being 0-2 against this team will definitely motivate the Ravens. Chiefs will probably want to atone for a slipshod performance at Chargers. I think we win a close one.

I have read their board the last two years, I already know what they are saying. They are shitting all over us. If I was in their position, I might, too. The only way to get respect is to win.

The Ravens should be able to move the ball. Justin Herbert threw for 311 and the Charger running backs had 183 yards on the ground. The question is whether or not the Ravens can finish off drives and the Baltimore defense can get a few stops.

Just no way it’s not a shootout

Thanks for linking!

A good read.

Seems like a good mix of sensible fans worried about their tackling and their LB play vs our offense, knowledgeable fans who know about our secondary and what the loss of Tavon might mean, and a few blowhards who are super-confident that Mahomezz will sweep away all before him.

(As, in fact, he might.)

Perhaps Biscotti would supply outside monitors. Just think, there will be cardboard cutouts in high-priced PSL seats for the best game of the year. I was so glad to be there for the SF game last season.

Priceless.😉

Although, weirdly, they seem to think the Chargers are a top-3 defense. Wha huh??

A great DL, sure. But do they have anything else? Derwin is out. I liked Nasir Adderly in the draft – has he been playing well for them?
