g...was looking at thye ravens myself...all the situations are there.....
coming home off a loss....
home record vs cincy is strong...
cincy coming off the 58 point outburst...always a go against for me the following week...they shot their load last week..
palmer`s tendency to turn it over...expect ed reed to get at least one pick...
but,the ravens are so banged up...jamal lewis is down for at least 2 more weeks...deion is out...and surprisingly,enough,he has been very important in their nickel packages...orlando brown is out(addition by subtraction if anyone other than ethan brooks was the replacement)...
they say that mcallister is all the way back....and they`ll need him vs chad johnson...heap is supposed to play...i`ll believe it when i see it...limited snaps is my guess...
the thing that really concerns me is their lack of running game recently....i mean, even before lewis went down...
this team befuddles me....
i expect them to do enough to win....maybe even dominate defensively...particularly after the bengals shot their bolt last week...
with the colts and pitt facing them on the road,losing this game is not an option...
but,i`m one of those that thinks cincy is much better than most think...
with all the circumstances favoring the ravens,i can see playing them small at 6(probably have to buy half)...
you`ll have to depend on the defense to dominate...the offense is still soooo non existent........
i see some things that appeal to me a little more...i`m already sucked into playing tampa....still can`t believe they lost last week...they are playing well and have a shot at the playoffs....still not sold on atlanta...
