The issue against SF is McCaffery. If they give us a steady diet of him unlike game 1 we are screwed.

Once Tank Dell is back and they either get another receiver or MLB they'll be scary. Although I'm not sure what Texans fans consider their draft priority to be at this point.

I know for the Ravens (for me) I'm looking at tackle/guard, DT/DE. can never draft enough corners and i wouldn't be mad at getting another wideout

Aren't there a whole bunch of teams that went 2-0 or 3-0 in the Superbowl before losing? Packers must have done it before the elway game

Grats to the Texans though, going from 2nd pick in the draft (via a miracle 4th and 30 throw to not pick first) to a playoff win in one drat season is incredible

the closer they get to another SB win, the more the cover starts to slip that this obsessive fatalism is really just an elaborate superstitious activity in service of his fandom

one that apparently needs the participation of an entire football forum witnessing increasingly deranged logic for why this very successful franchise is perpetually on the precipice of doom

People cared when the 49ers were 5-0. 3 SB wins especially at 3-0 will give the Ravens premier franchise status.

A valuable win against GB, TB, or DET would be even better. SF less so but acceptable.

Being bitter about a Superbowl loss isn't the same as worrying or giving a poo poo about which team you beat to win a Superbowl.

It shows the Ravens are an increasing value as a SB win themselves. And 3-0 will make us a marked team and increase the stakes. But 2-1 our value drops to average.

So you're "concern posting" about the literal dollar value placed on the Ravens as a franchise? Like those articles that always have the Cowboys at the top?

It's an honor value. And it's just how I see it. I like the idea of it. So that's why I value it. And the Cowboys weren't always where they are. I like it cause I've been with the Ravens since their early days so I like the idea that I've seen almost all the team's history. So it means something to me when they build their legacy.

We really need to run more plays to Likely. The dude is great running with the ball and also makes some great catches. I don't get why he's not our offensive focal point with Andrews out.

Some team that signs him when his rookie deal expires is going to hit the jackpot and he'll be a probowler.

Kawalmus I say this with all sincerity, bite me.

I hope the Ravens never win more than three games a season for the next century and that your entitled, whiny rear end learns some humility.

There are fans who have never seen a SB win and worrying that an upcoming SB win isn't unique enough is disgusting.
