Ravens are guaranteed nothing with almost 2 months to play. A lot can happen. Nobody really counts "chance or almost" as anything tangible or achieved. Fact is they were a #1 seed that won 1 playoff game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondbull424 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 So far the Ravens have the superior offense and they have a much better defense. They have more veterans on the team at starting positions that have played in big games and the Super Bowl with guys like Earl Thomas, Marcus Peters, Jimmy Smith, Josh Bynes, Brandon Williams, etc on defense. Then on offense you’ve got Yanda, Ingram, Snead. Plus Lamar at least has a playoff game under his belt unlike 2018 Mahomes. They also have superior coaching at the HC position. Reid makes a lot more mistakes with things like game management and such. Harbaugh has a SB win to his credit and has proven he can coach against and win against Bill Belichick when it counts the most (which is the gold standard), so the answer is easily the 2019 Ravens.

Wont take much for Baltimore to best them Wasn't remotely was you suggested but OK? Quote Ravens are clearly better. Only good win Chiefs had last year was their 1st win of the year and last win of the year. Chargers and Colts. Chargers beat them 2nd time. They barely beat an avg Ravens team at home in ot. This Ravens team smoked the Rams, beat down NE, beat Seattle and if they beat 49ers. We have to start looking at Ravens as potentially a historic team. 2018 chiefs were an all time offense, but a typical good seasonal team at best. Ravens haven't proven anything Yet, it will take a SB appearance at the minimum, that's the point!

kingseanjohn Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Biased opinion, but I'm going Chiefs. The 2018 and 2019 Chiefs both beat the Ravens. The Chiefs were inches away from a Super Bowl. IF the Ravens can make the Super Bowl, I'll go with them. But until then, the head to head says Chiefs.

wackywabbit Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 We are missing a lot of data on the 2019 Ravens. The first quarter of the season were not special. The next (almost) 2 quarters of the season were amazing. We still got 5 games and (probably) playoffs to see, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkippyX Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 13 wins and the OT of the AFCCG vs 9 wins. This is not even close yet. All of this early anointing is getting pretty lame. The Ravens May be one of the best 9-2 teams of all time though. Let’s have a parade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? lol But to answer the question, the 2019 Ravens are looking to be better than the 2018 Chiefs. We still have a ton of season left before I can personally crown who's better. But at this moment in time, it signs point towards the Ravens being a far superior team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a smartass comment, but very surprising that this D gave up 40 at home to the Browns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were starting Tony Jefferson (scrub) vs Chuck Clark (stud), Brandon Carr (solid) vs Marcus Peters (ballhawk), Anthony Averrett (scrub) vs Jimmy Smith (good). At LB we were starting Kenny Young (inconsistent/below average) vs Josh Bynes (good run stopper). At DL we were starting Chris Wormley (no impact) vs Domata Peko (great run stuffer). We also were missing Brandon Williams in that game and were playing below average talent. The defense has been enhanced at all three levels since that game. Upfront to stuff the run better and on the backend with top level talent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
