Ravens @ Packers

************************************
Baltimore Ravens @ Green Bay Packers
************************************

This game pits two 3-1 Superbowl contenders in different settings. The Ravens find themselves coming off two big wins. One against the revenge-hungry Broncos and then a sizeable victory over intra-division Tennessee. On deck for the Ravens is AFC co-leader Cleveland. We feel this is a good spot to go against Baltimore who have already proved beatable by losing against a Kitna-led Bengal team.

If the Ravens thought a road trip to Cincy with Kitna at the helm was tough, try a road trip to Green Bay with Brett Farve at the helm. Farve is an amazing 61-11 SU at home with the Packers. Don't look for that to change this week as Farve is healthier and happier than ever, and it is showing on the field as he is completing 65% and on track to pass for over 4,000 yards.

Save for a late TD by the Bucs in a must win game for them, and the Pack would be 4-0. At 3-1, the Pack is back--and in huge fashion as all 3 of their wins were blowouts. With a renewed running game in Ahman Green opening up their passing routs, the feeling here is that they rebound off last week's narrow loss to the Bucs and set the tone in what is conceivably a Superbowl Preview. We'll fly with the Packers at home at the low, low price of pick'em...

Earlier in the week I posted the Pack as a 3* play. This was a typo, I like them as a 1* play...

Take the over. Farve will throw three td's Two for GB and one for The Ravens. Should be a great game. Neither team should be able to run well, so the ball should be in the air all day.

Just a couple notes on the game that I heard this morning.

Edwin Mulitalo has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday. When asked by a reporter if he was going to play Sunday, he didn't sound real enthusiastic. He didn't give the usual "I'll be out there Sunday" confidence. On the other hand, he didn't rule it out either. If Mulitalo is out, Vickers will probably replace him which takes him out of the right side rotation which was starting to gel.

The reporter also said the McCallister is really getting psyched for game because he thinks Favre will test him more than other teams have.

Not much but hope this helps.
