Week 16: Ravens vs. Steelers

 

Week16vsSteelers

I HOPE MY LETTER TO SANTA REQUESTING THE RAVENS BEAT THE STEELERS DIDN’T GET LOST IN THE MAIL!
No shocker last week a good Chiefs team beat a depleted Ravens team with a third string quarterback. The only bright spot last week was Kamar Aiken with 128 receiving yards and that was about it for high lights of the game. And don’t get me started on last week’s pants.
I don’t want to dwell on last week, we need to focus all of our energy on beating the Steelers this week. Way back in week one of the preseason we looked at the teams in our division and I commented on the Steelers offense had gotten better with a new wide receiver and an intact Oline to help the running game. The hope was the Steelers defense would give up more points than their offense could score. The Steelers offense is currently ranked #2 in the NFL and their defense is ranked 24th. Week Four, we beat a Roethlisberger less Steelers in Pittsburgh. Now the table is turned-they come to Baltimore and we don’t have Joe Flacco, Steve Smith Terrell Suggs and the list goes on. So the Purple Kool-Aid has run out and I can’t realistically expect a Ravens win Sunday but I can hope that Ravens Nation shows up and gets loud for our last home game of 2015.
I hope everyone has a great holiday with a safe and happy New Year.
GO RAVENS NATION!!!!!

WEEK SIXTEEN RUNDOWN: Remember this is what we want to happen to help the Ravens, not necessarily what we think will happen. Don’t bet the farm on my picks.

Thursday Night
8:30
Raiders beat the Chargers 20-23 in what could have been the last time the Raiders play in Oakland.

Saturday Night
8:25
Redskins over Eagles
The Redskins have taken total control of the NFC East. If you can say 7-7 is in total control. The Eagles would be eliminated from the playoffs if they lose. So enjoy some leftovers and football on Saturday night.

Sunday
1:00
RAVENS over Steelers
All I want for Christmas is a Ravens win over the Steelers.

49ers over Lions
Both NFC teams
Looking at next year’s draft positioning and the 49ers would pick ahead of us.

Cowboys over Bills
NFC vs AFC
Tony Romo was put on IR this week. Rooting for the Cowboys who have the same 4-10 record as we do.

Buccaneers over Bears
Both NFC teams
Rooting for the home team Bucs.

Panthers over Falcons
The story of the season has to be how Cam Newton has this Panthers undefeated at 14-0 can up say MVP.

Dolphins over Colts
Rooting for the home team.

Jets over Patriots
The Jets need to win to keep the Steelers out of the payoffs.

Titans over Texans
Rooting for the home team Titans who are tied with the Browns for the worst record in the NFL.

Chiefs over Browns
A Browns loss would guarantee them last place in the AFC North. And a Chiefs win keeps the Steelers out of the playoffs.

4:05
Saints over Jaguars
Both teams at 5-9 and would pick behind us in the draft so rooting for the home team Saints.

4:25
Packers over Cardinals
Both NFC teams
The Packers are playing to keep first place in their division and the Cardinals are playing for homefield advantage in the NFC. This could be a good game, so watch this game after the Ravens beat the Steelers.

Seahawks over Rams
Both NFC teams
The Seahawks have clinched a playoff stop but are playing for a higher seed. Happy New Year to our special intention in Seattle.

Sunday Night
8:30

Giants over Vikings
A Vikings loss would knock them out of the playoffs

Monday Night
8:30

Bengals over Broncos
A Bengals win would keep the Steelers from winning our division (do you notice a theme).

Happy New Year!!!!

GO RAVENS!!!

And that’s just the view from 151
