AFC Championship: Ravens vs. Patriots–It’s Up! No Good!
Posted on 23 Jan 2012 by Frank Sullivan.
In a game that went back and forth, when both teams looked poised and ready to make the leap into the Super Bowl, it would all come down to a kicker. Billy Cundiff, a Pro Bowl kicker a season ago, trotted out from the comfort of the Ravens sideline for a 32-yard field goal attempt that would've tied the game at 23 with 11 seconds remaining. The kick would have most likely sent the game into...

AFC Championship: Ravens vs. Patriots–Now is the Time
Posted on 20 Jan 2012 by Frank Sullivan.
After a not-so-dominating performance last week in the win against the Houston Texans, the Baltimore Ravens have reached the point of no return. For this older squad, high in confidence but slowly waning in speed and skill, the Ravens have almost reached the precipice once again. During the 2000 season the Ravens, led by Ray Lewis in his prime, won the Super Bowl with dominating defense and...

Playoffs: Ravens vs. Texans–Good, Not Great
Posted on 17 Jan 2012 by Frank Sullivan.
Ed Reed, Suggs, and the Ravens D did just enough to hold off the upstart Texans. The Baltimore Ravens are heading to the AFC Championship game next Sunday where they'll face the New England Patriots in Foxboro. The Ravens won an ugly game 20-13 against a Houston Texans team that would not go away. The Texans were without their first and second string quarterbacks; having to lean on third st...

Playoffs: Ravens vs. Texans–Here. We. Go.
Posted on 13 Jan 2012 by Frank Sullivan.
As the Ravens prepare for Sundays game against the Houston Texans my mind wanders back to week one. Remember week one? The Packers and Saints gave us a hell of an opening game, everyone waited with anticipation for the “Dream Team” to take the league by storm, and the Ravens quietly made a statement; thrashing the Pittsburgh Steelers 35-7. Thinking back on the year is a tough as...

Week 17: Ravens vs. Bengals–Stepping Up
Posted on 3 Jan 2012 by Frank Sullivan.
The Baltimore Ravens did something this season that seldom happens in the NFL: they swept their division. Going a perfect 6-0 against their divisional opponents gave them a leg up heading into the playoffs and now, as Ray Lewis said, “The world comes to Baltimore.” In beating the Bengals 24-16 in Cincy on Saturday the Ravens clinched the #2 seed in the AFC, earned a bye-week to re...

Week 17: Ravens vs. Bengals–It All Comes Down to This
Posted on 30 Dec 2011 by Frank Sullivan.
Before I get started I'd be remiss not to give the Baltimore Ravens the necessary props they deserve for a strong season. Win or lose on Sunday in Cincy they've put together a strong campaign with the expected up's and down's of a 16-game NFL schedule. That being said…If the Ravens don't win the game on Sunday, they'll be at home in two weeks licking their wounds after a loss to the Bro...

Week 16: Ravens vs. Browns–There for the Taking
Posted on 26 Dec 2011 by Frank Sullivan.
Say what you will about the Baltimore Ravens (11-4) but these birds can win at home. After beating the Cleveland Browns (4-11) 20-14 Saturday afternoon they finished the season a perfect 8-0 at home. Sure, they've gone on the road this season and consistently laid egg after egg, but at home they're are clearly a different team. With one game left, on the road against the Bengals, the Ra...

Week 15: Ravens vs. Chargers–Who We Thought They Were
Posted on 19 Dec 2011 by Frank Sullivan.
Sunday night the Baltimore Ravens had a chance to keep pace with the New England Patriots for 1st place in the AFC. They had an opportunity to go on the road and end the Chargers playoff hopes while strengthening their hold on the AFC North. Sadly, a quarter into the game we saw the Ravens for what they are in 2011-12: a dominant home team that can't take their show on the road. The Char...

Week 15: Ravens vs. Chargers–Watch Out
Posted on 15 Dec 2011 by Frank Sullivan.
There's a four-way tie atop the AFC with three regular season games remaining. The Ravens, Steelers, Texans, and Patriots all sit at 10-3. Of those four teams the Ravens have the easiest, most direct route to the number one overall seed in the AFC and home field advantage throughout the playoffs. That's what worries me. Even at 10-3 the Ravens have done little to quiet their doubters this s...

Week 14: Ravens vs. Colts—Dominating the Hapless
Posted on 12 Dec 2011 by Frank Sullivan.
The Baltimore Ravens won their fourth game in a row on Sunday against the winless Indianapolis Colts 24-10, improving to 10-3 on the year and 7-0 at home. The Ravens have been without starting middle linebacker Ray Lewis for the entirety of this four game winning streak, but they've done enough to win each game and are gearing up to get their leader back and make a deep playoff push. “...

Week 13: Ravens vs. Browns–Running on Course
Posted on 5 Dec 2011 by Frank Sullivan.
In the Ravens 24-10 victory over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday we got to see a few things we haven't from the birds in purple this season. First, they did what they've in inexplicably not done all year: handed the ball to Mr. Ray Rice. For years Rice has been widely known as one of the best all-around running backs in the game. On Sunday with gusting winds, the Ravens had no choice but t...

Week 13: Ravens vs. Browns–Here We Go Again?
Posted on 2 Dec 2011 by Frank Sullivan.
By now everyone knows the Ravens M.O. They've had some huge wins this season on their way to the 8-3 record they hold today, but after each of those big wins has come a let down game, or a wake up call. Sunday's game in Cleveland against the 4-7 Browns has all the makings of another game the Ravens should win handily, but might now show up for. Ravens fans, ownership, coaching staff, and pl...
