The Ravens will kill the Broncos. As good as the Broncos defense is, and make no mistake they are legit, they just can't make up for the Broncos awful offense. I really don't know why Russell Wilson hasn't found a way to mesh with his offense? It's one of those Neverending mysteries of the 2022 season. But it's not the Ravens concern to get too cute about defending them. Shut down the Broncos running game and get RW consistently off his spot. 17-7 Ravens

Our defense against their offense should be a mismatch (until the 4th Q when Russell suddenly starts dicing us up) but their defense is good.

It'sgreatt against the pass but in terms of YPC and rushing 1st downs given up the Broncos defense is about middle of the pack. That should suit the Ravens but Roman has mostly chosen to attack our opponents strengths while ignoring their weaknesses this season, so it could be a pass heavy game plan that gets us into trouble.

well we need to figure out how to play 60 minutes and not 45. If we do that, we will make the playoffs or as @Deebo813 calls it, the offs.

Precisely. But at the same time, your signature is essentially how I feel about this season. All I want is a playoff spot. Whatever happens afterwards, happens.

I don’t have a good feeling about this game. I think the offense falls flat against a very good Broncos defense. Hell, we might even make Wilson look like he’s in his prime. Our defense is so bipolar

I felt this way against Jacksonville and I do again against the Donkeys.

OBJ is the new out-of-prime Julio Jones. Hyped up immensely for past achievements, but in reality he’s a shadow of himself and is often injured. Would he be the best WR on this team though? Of course. Pretty easy to do when your WR corps consists of 35 year old, hamstrings falling off D-Jax, journeyman and former Raider castoff D-Rob and sometimes flashy, often disappearing, perhaps grossly underused Duv

Is the underused Duv that has me puzzled. Why?

Because he’s a gadget WR, which was fine when you had Andrews and Bateman. When more spotlight on him, he can’t get open

Idgaf. You find ways to use your playmakers. He’s a playmaker, one of the only ones we have on offense

He’s a playmaker in the right scheme.

GRo ain’t got that scheme.

Well, for me as a lifelong, diehard fan the choice is easy. And honestly it should be for Saleh also. Shy of not turning the ball over Zach has been nothing more than a little fucking creep. He got benched because he deserved it. Is that what you wanted me to say? I want the best QB to play. Mike White, based on 4 games has the locker room and he's the better QB right now.

For me there's TWO things that must happen for Zach to come back this season:

1)He must get the fundamentals down to the satisfaction of the coaching staff. Short of that, he'll remain inactive.

2) Mike White MUST have a very bad ie like 4 interception game.

That's the only way I can see Zach getting back on the field this season. Zach is way more talented than Mike White but he just isn't getting it between the ears. Even worse, he's done nothing to endear himself to the other 52. I agree with Salehs decision to bench him and I'm 100% behind Mike White....

He took no accountability for his poor play. Additionally he turned into a turnover machine.
