Ravens are 7-1 vs the Jets. It's like the Steelers (19-4) and Eagles (0-9). Doesn't matter the year/talent.....they just seem to own us.
We haven't won an AFC road game this season, it's an even week coming off a loss. Something has got to give
Jets, Jets Get off the ledge. The hardest thing for a young team is to win on the road. Sorry but it takes time to get good. For better or worse this is year one.
Or if you are gonna be 40 like me next month, and you are still waiting to even play in a SB, it's been year one for a LONG FUCKING TIME!!!!!
The Ravens are a physical team and we struggle against them (Steelers, Cincy). I hope I'm wrong but I really don't see us winning and usually after a loss I've been confident that we'll win the following week but not this time.
I may be in Baltimore next weekend, if anyone knows where I can get some cheap-ish priced tix, PM me. But we are going to lose. Simple as that. We can't beat Baltimore. It's just a given. It's a team we have no luck against no matter how good/bad we or they are.
Jets getting trounced + Ravens coming off an emotional low with this OT loss can really, really help.
Can't have any confidence in this team week to week but they have gotten the job done reasonably often even against quality teams. Luckily everybody cooperated and lost this week so if we beat Baltimore then the playoff picture is identical as it was going into today outside of the winner of SD MIA being tied. Weird stuff.
Probably in their favor just as much as ours. They are going to want this win, they need it as bad as we do.
we're gonna win this week, bet on it. we'll beat carolina in carolina too. the jets are gonna keep failing upwards. :wink:
Ravens are much tougher at home. We have bounced back from losses pretty well this season but that's mostly been at home. The only team we beat on the road now has the 2nd worst record in football. I don't see us winning this one. We're still very much in the playoff hunt, but as a playoff team we're done as far as i'm concerned. We can't perform on the road and even if we do make the playoffs we will likely get crushed. This team is going to need to string some impressive road wins together to convince me we even have a chance of being a playoff caliber team.
RayR Rice still isn't playing well - not Ray Rice like..but Jones and Smith can torch Dee and Cro. They need to force Flacco into mistakes - he will turn the ball over. Jets need to make some key plays on defense. Offensively with Smith at QB you just have to hope he can to anything positive. I have no confidence that this offense can generate 14 points.
After every win everyone (including me) seems to think "this team is so good, how could we have lost last week? No way we lose next week." And then after every loss, it's "this team is so bad, how could we have won last week? No way we win next week." I really don't know what to think anymore. How could a team that beat the Saints and Patriots just look so bad?
