ravens might not make playoffs so we could see steelers or bengals first round

Do you realize how sweet it would be to go to Cincy for that game? They can't even sell out that stadium, heck I'd go!

I think Cincy would be a tougher challenge than B'more. They have a consistent running game with the law firm and AJ Green = B. Marsh = Megatron....that's alot of offense to deal with. B'more is still the Ray Rice show.

Ok, while you're thinking about yourself... I'm thinking about how we'd increase the chances of moving past the 1st round. Baltimore gives us the best shot at that

Dude, I'm always thinking about my self. I can't help it, I'm stuck with me.

But on that level, I should have been more clear, Of all of the potential scenarios out there, Cincy is by far and away the most desirable match up for the Colts.

Ed Reed would return all 4 Luck interceptions. :Nuke:

I think Baltimore pretty much hold all tiebreakers over the Steelers/Bengals if they finish with the same records or am I wrong? I dunno.

I don't think the Ravens lose all their remaining games BUT I won't be stunned if the Redskins run all over them this weekend too. :dunno:

Ravens might not make playoffs????

Baltimore clinches AFC North division with:

1) BAL win + PIT loss + CIN loss

Baltimore clinches a playoff spot with:

1) BAL win + PIT loss or tie OR

2) BAL win + CIN loss or tie OR

3) BAL tie + PIT loss + CIN loss

Probably they will not have a first round bye but they are almost a lock to be in the playoffs... sometimes you just create threads without thinking a lot or doing a little bit of research

thank you, alex :thmup:

Ravens have traditionally done well vs the Giants. I remember Bengals playing Peyton at home followed by Eli at home, they lost to Peyton and blanked Eli. Same thing is going to happen with the Ravens, IMO. They will get their 10th win next week and probably clinch the division with the Steelers beating the Bengals, I think because in that scenario both the Bengals and Steelers will be 8-7.

    • In 2011 Falcons selected WR Julio Jones with 6th overall pick from Cleveland Browns, giving up a package of 5 draft picks … Atlanta's No. 27 overall 2011 1st round pick, their 2012 1st round pick, 2011 2nd & 4th round picks, & a 2012 4th round pick. Ergo, there’s precedence.   I remember at the time thinking Atlanta was crazy to give that much up.  I also remember thinking a couple of years later, Falcons have a star receiver, one of the best in the game, so did giving up so much really matter?   I also remember the hype surrounding a Julio Jones at his time of being drafted, and he was NOT touted as being as sure fire as Marvin Harrison Junior currently is.  Also note, if the Colts trade up, the team dropping down is not dropping down as far as Cleveland did back in 2011 (6 to 27) as compared to, say, 4 to 15, so it might not cost quite as much as Atlanta gave up.   i am inclined to say pull the move up trigger.
    • Yeah I was unclear on that, my bad. To me there's a difference between total resources and 1st round picks. Meaning we'll have a high end cap hit on the lines typically. But I don't think he's shown he's opposed to drafting any position group in the first
    • im back, and still think ballard sucks. so there's that
    • Thanks @Superman for posting everything for those of us who couldn’t follow live.
    • Here's what I think.  He told us what he's going to do, or at least expecting to do. He said: "We're gonna trade back (three times)"  He loves the OL in the class. (yes, he said you could get one in round three, BUT I expect one higher) Asked about weapons for a young QB: He said,  "protect them. block; keep them safe." Look at all the teams in the playoffs, they can protect. "Andrew used to tell me, "just block for me; I'll do the rest" "Do they want a superstar receiver? YES, but block for me; keep em blocked." Oh yeah, and there's a corollary to that. There are two ways to beat a great QB (offense); one is pass defend, but the other is sacking and disrupting. So, I'm guessing we trade back in the first for more picks; we are just as likely to pick an early round OL, DL as we are a CB or WR.   and with that, I hope we end up with Brock Bowers
