Maybe I AM underestimating Baltimore, however I just don't think they are that good. They have a good running game and a good defense but what's going to happen when Tennessee shuts J.Lewis down? This is the best Rush Defense that Baltimore has faced all year. All Anthony Wright does is throw jump balls to Marcus Robinson, hopefully Tennessee can take away.
Maybe my hatred for Billick has something to do with it also.
I guess we will see.

Been a Ravens fan back when the Jags used to beat them 3-0...so I would advise anyone looking for sound objective opinion on this match to look elsewhere right now..LOL. If your still reading then its your own fault. Tennessee is clearly the better team, but the spot is what jumps out at me here. 2.5 point favs against NE earlier in the ear, 3.5 against Jets a few weeks back...both losses. This game has a similar kind of feel of those two spots. Obviously stakes are higher but Baltimore has rosen to the challenge once already this year against KC, had it not been for Dante, it would have ended the undefeated talk much earlier...KC was 4-14 in third down conversions, time of possession was less, total net yards were less, holmes ran for 90 but it took him 22 caries and produced no TD which is no easy feat. Their Offense produced only 10 points, which is remarkable considering Boeller threw 3 piks and baltimore fumble at least once. An obvious ode to the Ravens Secondary.
That game obviously taught me that There is no running allowed in Batlimore and that means throwing on third downs...and that in turn means turnovers which will determine the outcome of this game...If Mcnair is not a 100 percent(this may very well be an omen on Ravens behalf) I have to like this chances of throwing a few piks this week...Ravens have a shot. Either Way This is definitely not a game to be laying money on. Im gonna pass and and a homerrrrrrrrrr!

The plain and simple truth when the dust settles and The Titans win is Anthony Wright is not a team leader right now.
The Ravens have a great team, but the lack of a team leader will be their down-fall.
I see the Titans confusing Anthony to no end with formations and blitzes. Now I know some people will say, let the Titans come all day with the blitz cause Jamaul will run loose, I think not.
I predict Anthony will throw 2 picks and be sacked 6 times, also predict 1 fumble by him.

the ravens will win if jamal lewis can make some plays early, therefore taking presure off wright and making the titans stack the box,
this game reminds me of the fsu miami game every one is one fsu and they get beat
same thing here every one on titans and they will get beat
24-10 ravens win jamal lewis 160 yards

J. Lewis was picked NFL Offensive player of the year and R. Lewis was picked NFL defensive player of the year. Maybe Titans cover today but the Anthony Wright analysis is not enough to back with $, it's totally anecdotal. Defense means so much at this time of year and Balt has the edge there and the strong running game on the other side to compliment this. The consensus on this vote above is also interesting. Another thing that strikes in my mind is Eddie George and his inability to be effective in playoffs past. Maybe he is healthier this year but Baltimore will be sure to test him. This is a game to have the VCR runnning - there's going to be some great action here.

...I like Baltimore as a gambling play here, no paycheck stuff.
One thing that troubles me is that every game I've seen of Batimore's this year has the refs pulling touchdowns off the board or almost equally one-sided behaivior against the Ravens. Hopefully this is just coincidence and no real concern but I've been smelling rats here all year.

What I meant by the Ravens not having a team leader was obviously at the QB position, I should have stated that, sorry.
I think you guys see what my point was after this game. Sorry to those who lost on the Ravens, was a great game and both teams had their chances to win this game.
Ravens Defense played a spectacular game, but wasn't enough.
