Terrell Suggs aka T. Sizzle will lead the Ravens top ranked defense.
Even though the Baltimore Ravens got the victory last week against the Dallas Cowboys, it proved to be costly as Ray Lewis and Ladarius Webb were injured and will be out for the rest of the season. The Ravens defense has given up a huge amount of yards this season on the ground even when these 2 players were healthy. The Ravens defense will be looking to prove that they can stop the run and that they can step up despite the loss of 2 key players on defense. The Ravens offense will be looking to prove that they can continue to carry the team.
The Houston Texans will be looking to bounce back after a devastating loss to the Green Bay Packers. The Texans will be looking to prove that they are Superbowl contenders in the AFC by knocking off the Baltimore Ravens for the first time in the history of their organization. They may also be seeking a little revenge against the Ravens since the Ravens knocked them out of the playffs last season.
This is the matchup that all the analysts are talking about this week and it should be a good game.
I would like to hear your comments on who should get the blame for the Baltimore Ravens loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Here are some of the top nominees:
– David Reed (Had 2 kick off return fumbles and idiotic penalty)
– Cam Cameron (Questionable play calling passing 52 times in loud stadium on the road. Ray Rice had just 5 carries.)
– Joe Flacco (Inaccurate passing, just hitting on 29 out of 52 passes and he threw a very costly interception.)
– Billy Cundiff (Missed 2 valuable field goals. Can’t seem to hit any over 50 yards despite strong leg.)
– Ravens Defense (Despite holding Seahawks to mostly field goals, the defense could not stop Seahawks from running out clock in final minutes.)
Post your comments!!!
The Baltimore Ravens defense was too much for the poor New York Jets to handle Sunday night. Despite a poor performance by the offense, the Ravens defense showed up with their A game. The Ravens defense set the tone early with an Ed Reed blitz that ended up in a forced fumble and a return for touchdown
The defense attacked Mark Sanchez all night and Haloti Ngata hit him so hard on one play that I thought his back would be broken. Joe Flacco didn’t have a good day but the Ravens defense more than made up for it by forcing 3 turnovers that got returned for touchdowns. The Ravens have a bye this week.
Final Score: Ravens 34 Jets 17
Even though Jimmy Smith has gotten most of the press coverage, he isn’t the only new cornerback that will be coming to town to play for the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens drafted Chykie Brown to help out at the cornerback position as well. At 5 ‘ 11” and 191 pounds, Chykie Brown will be the second largest cornerback on the Ravens staff besides Jimmy Smith.
Big physical cornerbacks that can press are hard to find and Chykie Brown has experience pressing while at Texas. Getting both Jimmy Smith and Chykie Brown will add a new dimension to the Ravens defense.
