Bengals at Ravens- 7PM- ESPN

Time to get this going! Now that we know what the teams look like, we can focus on the Ravens week 1. This is a huge game to start the year, and the world's eyes will be on us come Monday night. We need to start fast and play 4 quarters.

Some thoughts:
-It will be easier with Suggs not playing, the Ravens OLBs have not looked very good.
-The Ravens have some speed at WR, and Torrey Smith could have a big night against our weaker secondary.
-It will be interesting to see how things go at C, with Kyle Cook out. Wonder if Faine will start week 1.
-Hopefully we can get the ground game going to open up some deep passes to AJ.

FINAL PREDICTION:
BENGALS-24
RAVENS-20

On offense, i'm actually more excited to see Gresham than Green for now. I think he could have a monster year. One of the most talented TEs in the game.

I tend to agree with J. Not only do I not expect Gresham to have a year that we would all love him to, but I think we lose this game. Our O line is outmatched in the middle and I am not sold on our defense especially without Dunlap.

Ill be honest, i don't think were going to win this game. But thats ok. I think we play all our division games relatively close (except for Pitt last year) and this one should also be a one score game.

What I'm worried about is our interior O-line. This defence is tough enough to run on already, losing Cook did us no favours. Webb should be all over Green. They will double the pants off em. Binns/Tate have to show some worth. But i agree with the earlier post, Gresham should have a big game.

Ravens 20 - Bengals 13

Glad to see everyone so confident. Lol. I think it will definitely close, I just have a gut feeling we pull this one out

AJ Green with a big TD catch, Dalton leads one long drive with a punch in by BJGE, then three field goals by Nug.

Looks like Kirkpatrick, Dunlap, and Scott gonna be out. Dunlap needs to stay healthy

I like our D better even with Dunlap injured. Flacco and Red will both have good games imo but I think we win the turnover battle and the game.
