It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Flacco is not the threat to pass that Shaub is, and Bodden will replace Wilhite in the secondary. Wilfork and Warren will strengthen the front. I believe 21 points will win the game, but that is the problem. Put a safety on top of Moss and that will limit his production (he will need to do better than 50 yards). Edelman can have a good game as he did today (100 yards), and it will not be enough. We will need to run the ball, but I am not confident our O-line is as stout as the Ravens front 7. Injuries to Sammy Morris and Dan Connely could take some thump out of the rushing game. So they will also need production in the passing game out of the tight ends and backs, who also have blocking responsibilities, and the Ravens will blitz. They will need to have a good game plan and execute it with good discipline. No brain farts like we saw today.
It'll probably be once the winner tonight is determined. Either right after the game, or with 5 minutes left if its a blow-out.
Since the NFL/networks like the big-market cities in prime-time, my guess is if the Jets win, Jets @ Bengals will be one of the evening games, putting the Bal @ NE game as an afternoon game. If the Jets lose, New England becomes the prime AFC market.
“We’re going to play New England at New England and we’ve been there before and we’ve been there lots,” Ravens coach John Harbaugh told reporters after his team beat the Raiders. “We’re pretty comfortable, we know our way around. we know where the locker rooms are at and we’re looking forward to playing the New England Patriots in the playoffs.”
It Is What It Is Pats to play Ravens in playoff opener
He's an idiot, he hasn't been in Foxboro in January. He'll find out soon enough.
Well if you want a cold game, then hope for the Saturday night game.
I will be surprised if the spread on this game is more than 3 or 4.
According to Al Michaels and ABC the Patriots will be playing Sunday.so, is this the Saturday night matchup then?

Considering that we have a much better running game than you do, and you have a much better passing game than we do, why would you all be wanting snow?
Because we've never lost in it, and we've never lost in Foxboro in January.
Bring on the Ravens, but its a bad matchup...
