Oakland Raiders vs. Baltimore Ravens
Oakland Raiders (3-5) vs. Baltimore Ravens (6-2)
I am a Ravens fan, I will admit, but if we win this game today, which we should, the Ravens could be the worst 7-2 team in the history of the NFL. Obviously, I am overreacting but the Ravens are no longer a defense you fear playing. Teams have been gashing the Ravens on the ground this season which would mean advantage Oakland. Unfortunately for Oakland, they will be without Run DMC and Mike Goodson. Carson Palmer is a turnover machine and that is still one thing the Ravens are capable of doing.
Ray Rice is going to slice through the Raiders defense without Richard Seymour. In addition, Joe Flacco will get back on track with 2 TD's himself. We will see a Dennis PItta TD and another sack from Terrell Suggs. The Ravens haven't lost at home dating back to the 2010 season and I don't see today being the first time in 15 games.

Sportacular Sports Baltimore Ravens vs. Cleveland Browns
The injury-ridden Baltimore Ravens travel to Cleveland to face the up and coming Browns. Baltimore has defeated Cleveland the last 6 times they have played them. But this is a Ravens team without leader Ray Lewis and top CB Lardarius Webb.
The Browns have added ROY candidate Trent Richardson and 29 year old rookie Brandon Weeden. While the Browns record isn't stunning they play teams a lot closer than the games should be. In Baltimore, Cleveland fell 23-16 and had multiple chances to tie it up late in the game.
Now for Baltimore, the Ravens have only played one game without Webb and Lewis but did get last year's DPOY back. Terrell Suggs was the only bright spot in Houston's blowout loss two weekends ago. Under coach John Harbaugh, the Ravens have yet to lose coming off the Bye. Ray Rice traditionally dominates the Browns on the ground but Joe Flacco usually struggles on the road. It's about time that Flacco shows up on the road and there might not be a greater opportunity than this Sunday.
Prediction: Ravens-27 Browns-21
The Browns will play a tight one but somehow the Ravens find a way to beat the not very good teams. 2 Td's from Flacco and a score from Rice will be enough to counter Trent Richardson's TD. Birds by 6.
