Kansas City at Baltimore (09/13/2009)

And the media is trying to tell us Cassel's injury was an accident?

I think not!

Purposely planned to be Out Week 1 and back in the next.  Smart man Matt!

 

I would like to take this comment back.  Did my homework and I can't see how KC is going to score in this game. 

The smart play here is KC +13, they did not win in the preseason and they did not cover 1 spread. They will cover the points here in a typical low scoring boring non offensive game. Ravens will never make it back to the Superbowl with this offense, its just not explosive!

Kansas City Chiefs +13...

Fully agree with this room but that scares me.  Vegas isn't stupid, is there any way we are missing something.  I like Rice to be the break out player of the year and Bowe is my pick to drop like a rock.  This seems too easy!

What is your reply to Rice, McGahee, and McClain vs. LJ and Charles?  I don't think KC knows how to properly utilize JC yet.  Chiefs defense wears out trying to stop the Ravens' three-headed monster and Flacco provides enough spice to deliver the acid relux.

I can't see the Chiefs matching score for score....

Then again, 13 is HUGE for a Ravens spread, but I will be teasing it down.

Either it's a defensive battle or the chiefs get shut out.

under 36

KC will struggle to score more than 10 pts.  Having said that, Ravens should cover easily.

    agreed that are offense isnt that explosive. but if i remember right we won in 2000 with trent dilfer. and went 5 GAMES WITHOUT AN OFFENSIVE TD!! YES 5 GAMES and still won. remember how explosive the oakland offence was that year with rich gannon? we held them to 3 points in that AFC championship game. sorry bud but are defence wins games for us. the baltimore sports writers are saying that are de might be better then the 2000 de.we have so much depth at every position. so much that there were over 25 scouts from other teams at are last preseason game watching for guys that got cut. were not explosive but i do know that we were second in the league in time of possession. we run,run,run, hold the ball and play great SP and scary defence. its smack you in the mouth ravens football.AND I LOVE IT!!         

  take them at 18 to 1 for the superbowl. its a great play for a team that has a good shot... of course health plays a big role for any team. anyway my whole point is if you have a great defence you dont need a explosive offence. if you can go 5 GAMES WITHOUT A OFFENSIVE TD and still win its prof that defence wins championships. just look at your last several superbowl champs.

 

  GOODLUCK TO ALL!!       GO RAVENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

Yeah, 5 games without an offensive TD - but the Chiefs have 2 right now........... Here's how it'll break down - - Cassel will start, Ravens will win, but won't cover - It'll be something like 17-10.........

under under under under under


no cassell? chiefs won't get past ten points
yes, balt will have a good offense this year, but it will take a couple weeks to get rolling



take the under, lock of week 1

Are you saying the KC defense is going to stop Rice, McGahee, and McClain?  And stop Flacco as well?  Even though Baltimore's defense will give them good field position all game? 

Who is starting at QB for the Chefs tomorrow?  Who is going to dare block for Larry Johnson against that D?  Something tells me Ravens win by like 20 or so.  I mean I hate to lay a large number like this on just week one but I don't know how KC will score. 



RAVENS laying the large number
