Ravens Shatter Hopes and Dreams of Cleveland Browns

I’m sorry Cleveland Browns fans, but the Baltimore Ravens own yall asses!  LOL   In spite of  all the distractions with the Ray Rice scandal and the fact that the Browns were playing at home they still could not defeat the Baltimore Ravens!  The Ravens continue to dominate the Browns as the Ravens defeated them once again in their own house.  That right!  The Ravens went into hostile territory and came away with another victory.  Yes, the Ravens kicked the Browns asses in their own house!

Okay, I won’t brag too much because it was a close game, but we have the better field goal kicker.  We have Justin Tucker and the Browns have our exiled reject Billy Cundiff for a kicker.  This was the difference as Justin Tucker kicked the winning field goal for the Ravens.  Billy Cundiff on the other hand, missed a field goal for the Browns and also had a kick blocked.  That turned out to be the difference in this closely fought game.

The good news for Ravens fans is that we beat the Brown once again by a score of 23 to 21.  Rookie Running Back Lorenzo Taliaferro got his first start and took advantage of it by rushing for 91 yards and a TD. Steve Smith Sr. had 101 yards receiving in the game and is turning into our #1 clutch wide receiver. There was some bad news for the Ravens fans though as TE Dennis Pitta was injured and sidelined during the game.

There is nothing but bad news for Cleveland Browns fans. The Ravens shattered the hopes and dreams of the Cleveland Browns once again. This was an opportunity for the Browns to prove they belong in the AFC North but they still have to bow down to the Purple and Black bullies.

Go Ravens!!!

The Rematch: Ravens vs Patriots

It is not very often that you get to see a rematch of the previoys year’s AFC Championship game. Today that will happen in the Ravens vs Patriots matchup. Last year’s AFC championship gam ended badly for the Baltimore Ravens due to a Lee Evans mistake in the end zone as well as a missed kick by Billy Cundiff.

This year may be different however. The Ravens have a great new rookie field goal kicker in Justin Tucker. They have also added speedster WR Jacoby Jones to the roster. The Baltimore Ravens also have a new offensive coordinator now and have been averaging 28 points per game since Jim Caldwell took over the offense.

We all know that Tom Brady and the New England Patriots can put up some points. The key to beating New England is by keeping close and then making the needed stops on defense. The Ravens usually play the Patriots very tough and if any team can go up to New England and win it is the Baltimore Ravens.

Billy Cundiff vs Justin Tucker

There have been many famous battles throughout sports history such as Ali vs Frazier in boxing and in the Olympics we had Phelps vs Lochte. The biggest battle going on right now in the Baltimore area right now is the battle between Billy Cundiff and rookie Justin Tucker for the job of being the Baltimore Ravens field goal kicker.

Cundiff had one good year in Baltimore in the 2010 season but is now famous for missing a crucial field goal in last year’s AFC Championship game against the Patriots. Justin Tucker has been real impressive this season and I witnessed him hit a 63 yard field goal at the Ravens practice at M&T Bank stadium earlier this month. In last night’s pre season game he hit a 53 yard field goal and looked great.

Most Ravens fans want Cundiff kicked out of town and with Justin Tucker’s performance so far it may happen. Who do you prefer to get the job Justing Tucker or Billy Cundiff?
