The X Factor for tomorrow's game

[Brady_Moss]

Obviously it would be either Tom Brady, Gronk or Darrelle Revis , but besides those guys, who do you have?

I have the Rb group. If Jonas Gray and Legarrette Blunt can unleash some physical presence against that defense, then it's game over for the Ravens

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Rob ninkovich is going to make a big play

 

[dales804]

The bearded ones up front (save for Solder).

If you want really interesting answers, you should probably exclude the OL as well.

Aside from the OL, I'm looking forward to seeing how the nasty boys in the defensive trenches do. Baltimore's OL looked solid this past week, but they were decidedly shakey down the stretch.

the offensive line

whole game depends on them......mostly

 

[I.M. Fletcher]

I see either Vereen or Wright having big receiving days if the Pats are to win.

If we loathe Will Hill by sunday morning, it will have been a bad Saturday evening.

Pretty much everything will depend on them. Point-blank, the Ravens have nobody in the backfield that has the talent or experience to box in the Patriots offense.

We will know inside the first five minutes how the game will go, just by looking at the line- particularly at Stork. If he can anchor and wall, the rest can slide their protection all day long.

 

[wolverinejoe80]

brady's deep ball. he will connect them and show you that he still got it.

 

[SunsOutGunsOut]

I think we are gonna see some "creative" schemes with Jones, Ayers, Ninko, and Collins .. They are gonna turn em loose

 

[Fencer]

The DBs. If they get a couple of takeaways and suppress playoff-Flacco, then it hardly matters how long it takes the offense to get on track (potential injuries of course aside).

I'd also say the lesser receivers as a group -- the Ravens' D is probably good enough to blanket Gronk and Edelman (or LaFell if Edelman can't go) while also having a strong rush, so the passing game will depend on getting the ball to everybody else.

 

[RelocatedPatFan]

Matt Patricia.

He's going to cook up some schemes to confuse and confound Flacco and his 5-0 win streak with 13 TD to 0 INT will be done.

You just figured out what solders problem is this year! If only he would grow a beard....

 

[Brewskies]

Look no further, it is number 11, Julian Edelman, he has been resting and has promised Tom Brady he will be ready to bail him out of any problems. 2 TDs, sets up 2 field goals and has 120 yard day. The Gronk draws the coverage to free Edelman. Then Brady uses Gronk to finish off the Birds.

It's a given, bet your wife or girlfriend on it.

Of course if I am right you win the game, I am happy for the win and if I am wrong I get your wives and girlfriends and we are disappointed for the Pats but I am smiling.

 

[doesntmatter1]

I got to say Amendola is the x factor. If he makes any plays receiving or in the kicking game, we win handedly.

I feel our oline and defense will be solid.

 

[Gronkowski123]

tim wright?? hasn't done much this year. good game against cinci/detriot.
would like to see him make some plays.

 

[dannydyn]

I have a feeling we're about to unleash Brian Tyms with some deep balls against their suspect secondary.

Tim wright in the Redzone

Chung with a FF and FR when Ravens driving
