Just in time, the Ravens defense is tuning up for the Chiefs

[captain stone]

How can you prove 2016 impacts 2018?

By their record since The Collapse happened. A not-insignificant part of their collective soul died that night, and they have never truly recovered. For Ryan & his HC, that condition is terminal.

Not anymore.



The 2-10 Raiders did last week.

We have Bingo! The Chiefs cannot stop anybody and the Ravens can. The Chiefs lost a key player on offense and are facing a team that is rejuvenated by the switch in QBs - on both sides of the ball. The Chiefs are answering questions about domestic violence while the Ravens are answering questions about overtaking the bumbling Steelers.

Since Sunday, the line on this game has moved from Ravens+8 to Ravens +6.5. That's still a big spread, but these are two teams heading in opposite directions.

I’m not going to use the falcons as the litmus test. That offense hasn’t been the same since shanny left and sark took over.

That and key injuries have thrown them off track.

I don't think the SB collapse has anything to do with their crap record this year. ATL went to the playoffs the following year.

Injuries to the O and D really hurt them this year.

And the loss of Shanahan. Sarkisian isn't getting it done.

I've said this before. Take Marshall Faulk off the 'Greatest Show on Turf' Rams, and replace him with 'Some Guy', Trung Candidate or whoever it was.

That's the Chiefs now.

They made the playoffs in 2017 and were decimated by injuries this year. Hell they were starting Jordan Richards

Seems unlikely the Ravens will be able to score enough to hang with KC, even if they “limit” KC’s offense. They need multiple turnovers and a defensive or ST score

Or just a bad game like New Orleans had against Dallas.

Don't let facts get in the way of the narrative where the Patriots are the protagonist, please.
