ROFL! Lots of wishful thinking in THAT thread...

Anyway, I say Dolphins 17, Ravens 13.

 

I always enjoy sticking my neck out a little...

Dolphins 20
Ravens 13

 

Dolphins 17, Ravens 13

 

My favorite quote:

Apparently a Rookie QB making his first Playoff start doesnt affect this guy's opinion. I think Flacco will make a few mistakes, and our Run D shows up in a big way.

I'll say Dolphins 23 Ravens 17.

 

I am sticking with this one:

http://talk.baltimoresun.com/showpost.php?p=4132473&postcount=5

 

Dolphins 10
Ravens 7

 

Miami 26 (2 TDs and 4 FGs)

Baltimore 21 (3 TDs)

 

27 - 17 ravens win it.

 

if u guys win the score will have to be like this but we average 24 ppg... so almost cutting our points in half will be a tall order .

definitly possibly though

 

A lot of wishful thinking in the thread!

 

I have polished the crystal ball, read the tea leaves, called Ms. Cleo, and had my palm read. All signs points to a big win for Miami!!

Miami - 27
Balt - 17

 

Miami has more playmakers on offense now and they have their starting NTs for this one. It will not be like before. Flacco will play fairly well but will not be completely unaffected by the road playoff crowd.

Miami 24
Baltimore 20

 

For all of you Raven fans I'm sorry but this will be a different Dolphin team you face Sunday. If you come in as overconfident as you sound you will get beaten badly. "Pride goes before the fall."

Dolphins - 20
Ravens - 15

 

it doesnt matter how confident we are. it matters what the team is doing. and with harbs there is no way they are gonna come in cocky

and "pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall" :up:
close though

 

You're right, Ray Lewis and company would never be cocky.

 

dont even try that. okay they wont come in cocky but dont confuse that with their play....
u get consistent stops and turnovers like them im pretty sure old porter be cocky too. thank you very much

 

Porter is not the face of the team and hasn't been with the team for a decade. I'm sure it will be a good game but to say that group won't be cocky... well.. I'm not so sure. I could easily see them getting surprised early on. How do you think they lost to the worst team in football last season?

 

by being injured and completely unmotivated but thats another story

porter is still cocky and is the only player on the defense the whole country knows. do not even try and tell me he is not cocky. he is just as cocky as anyone in the league

the ravens always give up early points. always have always will prolly.

we have complete different views of cocky and confident.

 

Dolphins 31 Yes, we will take care of business and I dont think we will be easily stopped this time around.
Ravens 27 They're going to throw all over us. Flacco knows what he's doing and Porter will be held in check most of the game. We're going to have to watch the run, and that's when he will pass up the middle.

It's going to be close, regardless of what Baltimore fans are spraying on their board. 7 to 31, 0 to 24 lol give me a break.

 

I'm not sure what this means.

Independent of Joey Porter's "cockiness", are you trying to tell me that Ray Lewis will not be cocky on Sunday? Are you aware that in 2001, he peed on the Dolphins' field after winning that game?!??! Can you think of another action that is more disrespectful and cocky? I can't.

 

I guess the fans forget about the atrocious start to the season Flacco had and the Giants and Colts games... Their D is solid but FAR from indestructible! Stop the run and score some points and we'll be aight!

 

I thought he did it before the game? You're probably right though.

 

Not as much as in the thread he linked to. Lots of HIGH scores on the Ravens side there...

 

You are right, but we are talking about Ray Lewis which hes a highly regarded piece of **** I can't wait for Sunday and beat the crap out of this overrated team.

 

Ravens are overrated... haha!!!!!!!

 

17-14 Miami

 

I guess you will have a better understanding after the game Sunday! :up:

 

yep after the ravens win I will! :lol:

 

Give one reason why you are so sure that the ravens will beat the Dolphins.......

 

You must be mistaking cockiness for confidence. Peeing on the field demonstrates how confident Ray Lewis is.

 

Peter there a lot of Raven fans that think they just have to show up to the stadium. I hope Miami comes out and takes it to them for 60 minutes and leaves it all on the field and wins this game. :up:

 

Everybody thinks the Ravens will win just by showing up. I read today the odds in Vegas have only the Cardinals with a lower chance of winning the Super bowl than Miami. Even the 8-8 chargers are more of a favorite.

 

27-17 Miami!

 

i'll take the under

 

42-10 Miami bowls over Baltimore!

Baltimore has 6 turnovers and the Dolphins take advantage of it and run away with the game to a full house crowd....

Ricky Williams 129 yards rushing

Ronnie Brown 103 yards rushing....

d-1

 

Another add on:

For all the talk about the amazing Ravens defense and creating turnovers, they had 34 on the year, our defense had 30.

What makes them dangerous is the ability for that defense to turn those turnovers into points.

 

John, for some reason I feel pretty confident about this game, the ravens are great on defense, our defense is also good, but I do believe that we are better on offense, we got more playmakers. :up:

 

Have all the Ravens fans forgotten how they won the first time? They took advantage of the fact that Ferguson was out for the entire 2nd half. Paul Soliai was suspended, leaving only Randy Starks to play the nose. The Ravens ran it up the gut the entire 2nd half and controlled the clock. Anyone who has watched the Dolphins this season knows that hasn't happened in any other week this season.

The Ravens are a very fumble prone team. I'd be willing to bet they lose 2 fumbles in Sundays game.

Any Ravens fan who thinks Miami won't be ready for them, think again. It's not like Miami doesn't have access to the game footage of Baltimore against Indy, the Giants, or against the Steelers.The Colts and Giants absolutely ROCKED the Ravens earlier this year, and I'm sure Sparano will go to those games for ideas on offense. And the Steelers did a great job of putting a cork in the Ravens offense, twice. So, it's not like no one knows how to beat the Ravens. It's more of can the Dolphins do it. And yes, they can.

I'm predicting a quick lead for Miami, and a 10-6 score for Miami at the half. Dolphins take a 17-6 lead in the third. Leading to a 17-9 score entering the 4th quarter. Miami plays conservative the rest of the game and Baltimore scores a TD as time expires, but fail on the 2PT try.

Miami wins 17-15.

 

What I hope happens: Miami 72-0 Baltimore

Realistically: Miami 20-17 Baltimore
