Well a very hard fought battle with the Chargers last Sunday. This game solidifies to the rest of the NFL that the Ravens are a force to be reckoned with. The Ravens have proved that they can go anywhere and win. Some promising things came out of Sundays win, but also our defense was exploited in the passing game. Phillip Rivers of the Chargers throw for over 430 passing yards. This concerns me and if the Ravens have any wish of going deep in the playoffs this year, they'll have to step up their secondary play.
Although the Ravens gave up a lot of big plays, the Defense was spectacular in the Red Zone. This is why we won the game. The Chargers drove down field but couldn't score touchdowns. Just field goals. Even though Rivers shined in the passing game, he still threw 2 interceptions. Ray Lewis was the real player of the game racking up 12 tackles including the game winner behind the line of scrimmage on 4th down. Definitely one of the greatest plays of Ray Lewis' hall of fame career.
I think you meant Phillip Rivers? I'm pretty sure Drew Brees was elsewhere that day...
ReplyDeleteYour Ravens should have no trouble this week against the Browns, and especially at home. Brady Quinn won't be able to do much against the second best defense in the league! (go Steelers! :-D)
