I agree with the not as nervous group.

Not that I believe the Ravens are a light game, but we NEEDED to beat the Broncos and get rid of the last couple 'one and done' years. On top of it all we had to deal with the Tebow hype, it would've been a long offseason to have lost to them at home.

I fully expect us to beat the Ravens. I think their defense has trouble getting outside in the run game and won't be able to keep pace with our offense for 4 quarters.

One thing I've noticed the past 5 or 6 games, is we do a good job with our formations and motions-- changing our tendencies, escpecially with Gronkowski and Hernandez. The coaching staff fully understands everything is being charted, and they don't stubbornly 'only' stick with what works.

But, if we were to lose to the Ravens, it would be a legitimate loss. Whereas I didn't feel the same about the Broncos.

So I'm just going to enjoy the ride, but I'm in no hurry for it to end.

I am always nervous until we get out to at least a 10point lead. as long as there is 2 scores in it i am ok because it means the offense will get another chance if the ravens score.

Hopefully we can get a quick start on them which will negate the running game some what.

Same, one score games make me very nervous. I always think the other team will end up tying us.

People going to the game also are very fortunate to be watching what may be two future HOF's playing their last game if the Ravens loose.

It's hard not to take these games too seriously.

I'll be in the Joker Bunker...hunkered down with my Gronk fathead on the wall.... the 18 inch Emerson black and white and rabbit ears propped up on the empty corn crate...and my vicious attack dog prowling the grounds to ward off any stray black birds...

First the first (and only) time in my life, I was forced to root through my garbage can looking for an empty brown Burger King bag to breathe into...

This of course, took place during SB42, so you could probably understand.

In the playoff game last yr, my wife told me that she could actually hear my heart beating from across the room, and she was right.

Unfortunately, I tend to take the games a little harder than most
