Baltimore's pretty well balanced offensively this year. They're still a great running team and it obviously starts with Jackson's ability to take off downfield. However, it seems like no matter who gets the football out of the backfield they're getting 4+ YPC and this will be yet another challenge for Caldwell. 

Todd Monken has been a relatively decent and successful offensive coordinator so far at this point in his career. Going back to his stint with the Georgia Bulldogs and he seems to be giving Jackson more passing opportunities than Greg Roman did during his time there. 

Zay Flowers is a rookie that has a lot of promise. Hasn't had a monster, breakout game yet but he has a tendency to pop up here and there in critical situations when they need a play made. 

Defensively, they're just as tough as the 49ers and Browns and they actually get after the QB more than anybody. Going to be a dog fight man.

I agree. I think we will come out angry and playing for pride, but this is a tough matchup. We need to be much better than the last 2 weeks.

The have the number 2 rated oline on PFF.  Baltimore always has a good oline and a huge part of their success every year.

Jags getting healthier. Thats big time.

Meanwhile, texans will be without Stroud and possible Will Anderson this weekend. Just need the Steelers to beat the clots.

Trevor should give Anderson some pointers on high ankle sprains. Or maybe not actually

Weather could be an issue if the rain slows down. Right now will be windy but rain should have stopped.

I'm beginning to smell an upset in this game. Jags are getting healthy, are due for a big win at home and I believe the Ravens are slightly overrated. Jags will pull out a 3 point win.

It's been windy as hell around here lately. Had to stake my damn Christmas blow-up's even further into the ground today in my front yard. It blows. . .

yea if we go 2-2, we just need the texans and colts to both lose one more time and we win division.

i just hope we dont come to the titans game needing to win that.  you know theyd love to kick us out after us bouncing them last year.

I used the ESPN playoff machine....had Texans and colts winning out and us losing 2...then if colts beat Texans last game we win the division....if Texans win we move to the 7th seed....if I remember correctly I did it a few days ago....the only problem is if buffalo wins out we are out completely in that scenario....they would have to lose one more.... IDK if you have used the ESPN playoff machine...if not it's pretty cool...you can go week by week and make your picks....then you can go back weeks and change picks for different scenarios.... It will tell you who's in and out....I had a scenario where dolphins completely miss playoffs

Per this game...we had an incredible comeback last year to beat this team. Down 19-10 in the 4th quarter and was able to pull it out by barely escaping thanks to a long Justin Tucker FG attempt that was barely missed. Against a Ravens team that was depleted at WR and RB, and basically had just Lamar and Andrews as weapons. It was a great game to attend in person, and one of many exciting comebacks from last year...Raiders, Cowboys, Titans, and Chargers. That being said, we only have one comeback victory this year. One. The season opener. More often than not, this year we are relying on getting ahead and then holding off comebacks from the opponent. However, this year Lamar is throwing the ball better, and is always a threat to run. His WR group is better, and healthy. His RBs are healthy. Our defense has played poorly the last 2 weeks, particularly the secondary. We have gotten behind early. Our O line is worse than last year. Ravens lead the league in sacks. I dont see many matchups in this game that clearly favor us. Unless we play error free ball and can get a turnover or two, i see us losing by at least 2 scores, maybe more. It could be a 49ers type of loss.

If we can get Little and Ezra both back on offense and Cisco, Herndon, and a FULLY healthy Campbell back on defense I like our chances a lot more.

It’s going to be a tough game that we’ll likely fall short in, but with Trevor I can never count us out.
