While I partially agree, we’ve just played 2 extremely beat up defenses missing lots of key players. Won’t be the case Sunday.

I think our D can hang with the Ravens. Just worried about them running all over us with Lamar and Edwards. Obviously Harbaugh saw last night's game and will try and copy what Buffalo did.

What worries me more than the past 2 games is the Ravens have the players to run the defense that LV ran against us. And it was extremely frustrating for Patrick. Fins and Bills couldn’t run that because they were missing so many starters. But I fully expect their DC to look at that Faders game as the best way to contain our offense. It worked unbelievably well for the Fade. 5-2-4, spy Mahomes, double Kelce. The only saving grace is MVS looked competent last night. Raiders basically let him run free because they weren’t worried about him at all. But last night he made some incredibly tough catches. If we can get that MVS for the next 2 games, we should win another ring!

90pct sure they rotate the timing of the AFCCGs every season.

We were the late game last year, the early one the year prior, etc etc.

It would be fantastic if we could recover a fumble. Our defense has been incredibly unlucky in the turnover department.

The fact it's being hosted in Baltimore and San Fran made it easy to chose which would be early and late games. EST vs PST

Let's hope that's all it is, because if we take the run out of the equation, Lamar has not shown that he's a guy to bring you back when everyone in the world knows it's a pass coming.

Baltimore scoring last 5 games (not counting the game against Pitt in which they rested starters):

Rams: 37
@ Jaguars: 23
@ 49ers: 33
Dolphins: 56
Texans: 34

Baltimore has Flowers and Likely, who are good but not great weapons. If Andrews comes back that could be a huge problem.

I’ll get more into it as the week goes on, but early gut feel is this one is lower scoring than last night. More like 20-17.
