Couple of thoughts from the banks of the Chesapeake:
Ravens have been notoriously weak vs TE’s. Expect Kelce to have a huge day. CJ Mosely and our other ILB’s are NOT good in coverage.
Ravens S are slow. Yes, Weddle is an excellent Field General, but neither he nor Jefferson can cover Arthur Bryant, let alone the KC receivers. Chuck Clark is a better cover S, but very raw.
Spencer Ware scares no one. The Ravens DL should be able to minimize his impact. Hunt would have had a field day bouncing outside.
I have been at Arrowhead for a game. I have been nowhere else as loud as your place when you guys are rocking it. Lamar may well have issues communicating with the crowd noise.
IMO, the best chance the Ravens have for a W is to hog the ball, run up the TOP, and hope to put pressure on Mahomes. Otherwise, this could be real ugly. I see you guys winning 31- 17

If you guys can stick to running the ball, you have a very real chance to be there in the end. Denver was right there until they went derpy and Elway had to prove he's a genius by letting Keenum start tossing the ball all over.
That said, the formula for KC all season has been to defer the kickoff (I think they've only received in the 1st half twice all season...maybe three times (?)), get a stop early, get a quick score, get another stop (or field goal), get another score, then go straight derp on defense and force the offense to stay aggressive. It's worked 10 times. Basically if KC gets up 14 early, it's typically bad news because it forces other teams to try and catch up...which they can do because our defense is butthole. That said, our offense has pretty well kept pace all year; especially when needed.
The two losses we had came in the final 2 minutes of the game when our defense dropped a yam on the field and played "fling the pooh" with each other instead of playing defense.
