Tenn defense is suspect as F. Pitt just matches up relatively well with us even though their offense is sputtering. Ind also shut down our offense in the 1st half of that game. I honestly don't think there is much difference in playing any of the 3 teams. It'll be interesting where the line opens at and ultimately ends up at.

It's not just who they're playing but how they're playing. Just looking at the competition is lazy analysis. The execution, schemes and play calling on offense are all better than they were earlier in the season. They've made adjustments and gotten better regardless of who the competition is.

My point again... They have executed versus the Giants, Jaguars, Bengals, Cowboys who are all sitting on the couch this coming weekend and the Browns barely beat the Steelers without Roethlisberger and Watt

You're unbearable. Only 1 teams fans are going to be happy in about a month. Odds are it wont be us just like the odds are it wont be any other team. It wont matter if its next week or in the SB, if we lose you'll find a way to bitch about this team and Lamar.

Your a jerk! I said I have 0 confidence that we can beat the Titans. I did not say we had no chance. Are you illiterate or just pushing an agenda?

Please don’t be fooled they beat the Cowboys, Browns, Giants, Jaguars, and Bengals.

I’m fine that we handled our business but we played 4 horrible teams and a Browns teams that doesn’t make the playoffs if the Ben had played today. They were lucky to win against Mason Freakin Rudolph

I’m hoping the Titans lose as I think we can beat the Colts. I have 0 confidence we can beat the Titans.


I'm not worried about it.

The bottom line is that the Ravens did what they had to do to make the playoffs.

The schedule certainly helped, but they are in.

I really don't care who they play.

Agreed and the key was the offensive line finally playing like a well-oiled, cohesive unit and doing their job, especially in the run game. That and Lamar coming back from his short exodus looking like the 2019 version again.

At this point I’m incredibly encouraged no matter who we play.

(Still hoping it’s the Colts though)

Man, the Titans’ offense is scary but the defense is awful. Gotta believe we can move the ball if it’s them.

I'm not sure who the better team to play is.  I thought all along the Colts would be easier, but watching Tennessee's defense the last two weeks, I'm not so sure.  Philip Rivers doesn't present as much trouble as Ryan Tannehill, and the Colts don't have Henry, but their defense is much better than Tennessee.   I wouldn't expect Tennessee to do much different than they have in the past, but I imagine the Colts would make some adjustments from earlier in the season.  I guess it's the old 6 of one, 1/2 dozen of the other.  

 

One thing that's an advantage against the Colts, if you get up on them early, I don't like their chances as much as Tennessee of coming back.

That looks like the advantage. Both defenses can be had. All of sudden Henry or Taylor is pick your poison. Taylor turning it on the same time Dobbins has. Much rather play Rivers and that crop from ahead than Tannehill, Brown, Davis who could close a gap fast.

AJ Brown's size advantage, Henry's style and stamina, and Tannehill's ability to make the occasional big play with his legs, concerns me a lot more than Rivers in the pocket and his surrounding cast...

At least this time we’ll have both Williams and Campbell, and Madubuike has really been coming on.

I have visions of Derrick Henry running over patrick queen and I don't like it.



I have visions of Deshon Elliott dropping his ass and sending him to the sidelines with a stinger. Dudes not invincible.

I wanted Tennessee. Not because I think they're the easiest. But because if Lamar is going to break out of this early stigma of a choke artist, I want him to do it against the team who punched him in the mouth last year.

Come out loose, do what you do, take the ball on long drives, get TD's, and try and make Tennessee a one dimensional team. This time we have Campbell and Williams. That should make a huge difference up front. We know what they're going to do. Come in, punch them in the mouth early. Keep Henry off the field. And let's go out and kick Vrabel and his team of tool bags a$$es.

Nice. I think the "Normal" time slot in Wild Card weekend is best for a team that better not choke this time.
