The Baltimore Ravens look have been inconsistent this season losing 4 out of the last 5 games and look to bounce back from a 17-7 loss to the Bengals in which Cincinnati completed a sweep of the Ravens for the first time ever.

The Ravens defense are facing a Browns team that is dead last in the NFL in every offensive and defensive category. Both the offense and defenses should have monster games. I expect the offense and defense to have their best statistical game of the year. Quarterback Joe Flacco should have his way the Browns secondary and rookie running back Ray Rice should have a career day as well.

Look for the Ravens to bring a heavy pass rush and stuff the running game with defensive end Jarrett Johnson, linebacker Terrell Suggs and future Hall of Fame linebacker Ray Lewis. Safety Ed Reed should man the secondary and get an interception in this game and possibly return one for a TD. Even though the Ravens have struggled recently, this is the confidence game that they needed to get back on track.

Well crew we tried and it was fun until we all crashed and burned from the terribleness of it all!

Yuck Ravens...pew!  But congrats fans for the win.

Should have Brady Quinn wasnt going to complete that long pass, he’s Brady Quinn.


Jaworski: “Were going to see some offense next week, ALRIGHT!!!”

This has to be dumbest the game in Monday Night game ever. They saved this for prime time, SMH.

I just want it to be over! This is painful!

I agree, I’m sick of seeing ESPN remind us of Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski’s awful careers.


Reggie Hodges is my fantasy punter lol


MichaelRobinson - 11/17/09 4:05 am

Did I see a Phil Collins reference in here?

That’s when you know things have gotten out of hand. If I started singing Phil Collins, chances are, the football game is complete junk.

ESPN obviously agrees, as we’ve seen numerous Jaws-Gruden bloopers in the past few minutes.

Yeah Kyle, at least Jordan and James are more exciting than what we Earthlings call a game.


Come on Browns, you can do it, you can score. You don’t suck that bad, do you?

Ok, in order to stay in my fantasy matchup this week, I’m gonna need the Browns to put up 40 in this quarter. I can feel it.....coming in the air tonight.......

Bwahahahahahahha!  Good one.


Let’s show Michael Jordan and LeBron James highlights...I guess this is Monday Night Basketball.


Everybody put ya fours up. Fourth quarter has officially begun! 

Ok I’m officially delirious...smh!

Ok we all know that both Quinn and Anderson just aren’t good. So I just checked out the depth chart, and I think they should throw in Brett Ratliff. Here’s his stats:

Passing Yards: 0
Touchdowns: 0
Pass Attempts: 0

That’s right, he’s never played a game. So why not throw him in now, let’s see what he’s got. Nothing to lose.


Time to bring in 3.1 baby! Game time!


MichaelRobinson - 11/17/09 3:48 am

I wonder if the Browns ownership are going to pull a Bud Adams tonight.

YES!  Bwahahahahha he should pull one on his head coach.  Flip Mangini off real good!

The Browns faithful seem very unhappy with their play this evening, LOL.

Yeah since they’re so used to their team “lighting” it up. LOL!


Josh Cribbs is playing a better QB than Brady Quinn. At least he gaining yards.

Hauschka just got an upgrade on his flight back to Massachusetts from coach to business class with that kick.  Well done kid!


KhaiGordon - 11/17/09 3:40 am
MichaelRobinson - 11/17/09 3:37 am

Yes Kyle, time to bring Derek Anderson.

Although that 3.1 QB rating in the 4th quarter might slow down their decision.

At this point, it really doesn’t matter.
