If Marcus peters is injured he shouldn’t be on the field. He gave up 2 long touchdowns today which is like 6 in 3 weeks.

Peters' replacement Scandrick has the same number 22 and is playing well enough to make me feel okay about losing Peters. I did not see that coming.

There's also this rumor running around that Peters butted heads with Mahomes of all people and it's one of the reasons he got traded. My thoughts on that are welp, he really wanted out then.

Daaaa Browns.

It makes me sad to admit but defense is the most consistent part of the Browns team. Gregg Williams is slime and deserves to be sucker punched every morning for a year straight, but if he can coach what makes it any different than rallying behind players like Tyreek Hill, Mixon, Roethlisberger etc.?

Well, Gregg Williams hasn't demonstrably committed any serious crimes, so I guess pulling for him is better than rooting for certain other people.

This is exactly the type of team that has given the Ravens fits over the years mainly on the road, and exactly the reason we will drop to 3-3.

Titans will win 20-6.

the "tightens" have scored 20 or more, more often than they have not. That is why the ravens will go 13-3.

I imagine it will be. Maybe 16-6 is a better estimate of the score. Ravens are currently on a TD drought themselves.

On one hand recent history makes me think the Chiefs are going to school the Patriots.

On the other hand Belichick is insane & may find a weird cheattrick to beat Mahomes. Maybe use the clock against Andy Reid.

Ravens have been lucky with kickers. Stover was accurate but not a super strong leg. Then we get a guy who is super accurate, and has an amazing leg in Tucker. Even Cundiff had one great year here before his bad one. But I'm glad he missed that kick in the grand scheme of things. Plus in the other end of the kicking game Sam Koch has been a real good punter.

Because we would have played the Giants and we'd already beaten them. And with butterfly effects and all that crap we probably don't get to play the 49ers the following season, giving our win less meaning. Plus if we had lost to the Giants that would negate our previous win over that franchise, and also worsened their record. But since they won the SB, their record is even better with ours being their only loss. We then became the only team to ever beat the 49ers franchise. We have an undefeated record in the Superbowl, and the teams that we defeated have 9 wins and two losses collectively. Those two losses are to the Ravens.

You didn't ask me this. However, this is actually a VERY difficult question for me to answer. I don't honestly know which one would be better. Assuming that Rogers and Brees are the QBs of each team.

Thought about it for a second and my answer is probably the Packers. While dethroning another undefeated would be amazing, the outcome there is up in the air and the danger of losing our place is too great. Plus, the Packers have a very good SB record themselves, Rodgers is a great QB to have beaten, and going to 3-0 means the Saints(and any of the other undefeated teams) are less of a threat.

Plus I come across more Packers fans than Saints fans, and that silences those fans from talking too badly about the Ravens in certain ways.

I would ONLY accept a SB appearance against the Redskins if the win were guaranteed. I do not ever want this game to take place because I am scared of the outcome. But if it were guaranteed, this is the game that would be absolutely desired.

Would you take a Super Bowl win against the Redskins if you also had to take losing a Super Bowl to the Dallas Cowboys?

Which NFC team would you most want to see the Ravens lose the Super Bowl to?

Losing is off limits. But that is another tough question if it would mean a win against them.

If I had to lose? Maybe the Rams. They're on the far coast, have a couple SB losses already but also a win so we wouldn't be their first win. Also if we lost I think I'd rather it be a soft blowout against a heavily favored team.
