I never say they didn't beat us last year.

Ravens 17

Chargers 16

I was pretty close on the raiders game, way off on the steelers, so im not really sure what my opinions worth.

Im leaning towards 17-13 ravens but i wouldnt be surprised if the scores flopped. Going across country will not be easy for a team that struggles on the road. Only good news is our defense is playing better so hopefully we can keep them out of the endzone fr the most part.

As far as the game goes. I agree, I won't be surprised if we win, or if we get brutally slaughtered. San Diego is a hot and cold type of team. Hopefully we can do what we have to do to get the win.

There is a rotation that is set.

Then there are 2 games each year that depend on the previous year's standings.

Just the way it worked out.

i don't think matthews is playing and vincent jackson is gone. our back end is banged up. the new guy ozie picked up might be hurt so we could have chykie brown at cb.

this game will be based on how well we can get to the Q[B] and joe has to produce at least 20 points.

the chargers have a stout run defense.

It's going to depend on how they get to rivers. If he has all day to throw, were probably going to see a repeat of last year. SD was on the road and came within a TD of tying Denver last week which is tough to do with Peyton and that Defense. They'll be at home playing a visiting team with a clearly weaker offense and defense than the Broncos. I see SD winning this one, but us taking our frustration out on the Steelers next week

**Ravenboy2003** · 11-22-2012, 06:59 PM

Repeat of last year.

Everyone keeps talking about Rivers but last December the Chargers had about 160 yds rushing. Matthews had a pretty big day.

Chargers 27
Ravens 20

Who the hell knows?

All I care about is winning. The offense needs to pick this shit up.

Before last Sunday night, I believe many people felt that if the Ravens could go 1-2 in their next 3 games, it would be ok. Sunday night got them the "1", and I like their chances at home against PGH next week, but I'm not loving this week week in SD. I don't see any reason why we should expect an improved pass rush from the Ravens front 7, other than Suggs being one week healthier. We just currently DO NOT have the horses to do the job. Pees can occasionally dial up a blitz pak, but Rivers has the ability to torch the DB's when the back 7 blitz.
24-20 San Diego

**Dade** · 11-23-2012, 05:09 AM

I am really surprised that most people are picking against us. To each their own.

**Agent 47** · 11-23-2012, 06:06 AM

As this is the "Steeler sandwich" game, I really have a hard time seeing them getting up for this one. I know these guys are pros, but sometimes a letdown's inevitable, especially on the west coast (see Seattle and San Diego, 2011).

31-23, Bolts. Just a bump in the road, hopefully.

**Paintballguy** · 11-23-2012, 06:17 AM

Looks like San Diego will be playing without Gaither which is huge for us because an undrafted free agent will be playing at LT. I like Suggs' odds against an undrafted free agent LT. Also, they will probably be without their starting left guard Green.

If the Ravens can get a consistent pass rush on Rivers, this game will be over quickly.

The right tackle hasn't been great in pass pro this year either, so look for Kruger to have one or two sacks. I just don't like the way our offense matches up with that defense. Jarrett Johnson knows the system, and I think our only chance is to air it our, because our run game will be stuffed. The Chargers have struggled against arial attacks this year, which we excel at... at home, we have failed to get our explosive offense working on the road as we all know, it all depends on how well we can play on the road

Would not surprise me if both the stealers and the Ravens lose on Sunday, but I think both teams will win this week. stealers d does just enough to get by. We finally get a decent pass rush, due mostly to the holes in the Charger O-line, and Rivers cannot take full advantage of his receivers.

But this one is on Joe. He needs to communicate better, check off in a subdued San Diego, Qualcomm, the Murph, Snapdragon (or whatever they are calling it this week) stadium, and MAKE PLAYS.

No excuses fellas. This should not be a tough game. Wanna be champions? We have to show more offensively on the road, and now is the time to start.

SD has been good against the run, but they have been run on by good rb's. McGahee had around 55 yards on 7 carries before he got hurt.

Exactly. Everyone is expecting the offense to lay egg, road game between 2 Steelers game. Now is the perfect opportunity to turn it around on the road. I believe this offense, led by Joe will finally show up on the road.

Why though? I haven't seen this offense play well on the road consistently enough to get me up for this one.

I think this is a game where they can get something going because the fans will not be as loud as other places. I hope we see the no huddle and basically everything we see at home.

Hi Beer How ya doing?

Your post sounds about right and the game is on the road where Joe isn't so hot and it's in Calif where even
the old Colts struggled at times. We would have gone to the Championship 3 yrs in a row but lost last two
games in SF and LA in 57 and we were still a young franchise.

I had this game as a loss early on unless Joe lights it up early, if he can. He's gotta score 30 pts to win it.
