All Ravens with the exception of Josh Oliver are now off the Covid list. Time to give it hell.


If we don't get hit by covid these next couple of days this will be the most complete team we've had since early in the season. Other than Lamar Averett is looking like the only question mark right now. If Averett can play I give this team more than a fighting chance on Sunday. I consider Rucard and Boyle bonuses right now.

This team is not going down easy at home. They've shown too much heart this season.

Aaron Donald is calling this his revenge game because of the MNF game they lost big at home. Maybe Aaron should sit this one out since the guy who whooped up on them isn't going to play. Tell him it won't be the same unless Jackson plays.

Or Ingram, Edwards, Yanda, Peters, Humphrey, Mosley, Judon and whomever else is gone, injured or ill.

Edit: Mosley may have already left after 2018; memory is not my strong suite anymore.

Maybe it is time for the last stand.  The Rams have built an All Star team and the Ravens have a Mash unit, but let’s go out swinging.

I think Byrnes and Fort were the inside backers then.

The lack of Lamar is driving it up

I think most of it is a lack of faith in the secondary.  The bettors are obviously betting LA because of that.  The difference between a less than 100% Jackson and Huntley is not much.  Huntley led the Ravens to 30 points against a team that leads LA in the NFC race for the #1 seed.  

 

I'm not sure I would take the Ravens +6, but I definitely wouldn't take LA -6.  The Ravens have played well at home and the Rams are not invincible.

I actually felt a little better about this game earlier in the week too.  I think the Ravens will fight the good fight, but we are so depleted injury wise it would take a few lucky bounces and a terrific effort.  6 seems about right, and I do not Bert, but I would not touch this game.

The amazing thing to me, is after all the injuries to the defensive backfield, Jimmy Smith is our top corner.  There was a day that he fit the role perfectly.  Maybe he can turn back time one last game.

They need to let him shadow Kupp and play press-man on him all day. One thing Smith could always do at an elite level was destroy a WR at the LOS.

Agreed, but after not playing for a month and coming off Covid, it may be asking too much.

I am heading out to the game with an ankle brace on.  Like Lamar, I messed up my ankle but I am going to limp my way to the stadium.

 

Unlike Lamar, I did mine being a clumsy oaf.   :-P

 

Go Ravens.

A lot of talk about Proche being inactive. I think Ricard being good to go is huge for Baltimore. He’s a key to so much of what they do offensively.

Inactives:

Jackson
Proche
Averett
Powers
Boykin
McPhee
Oweh

I believe it's a foot injury that is keeping him out.

Bozeman apparently not taking snaps in warmups. Not inactive either. Late Covid result?
