The game on Sunday was not as I would have expected it to be, but rather a defensive battle. Once again it is Stovers leg that kicked it in. So loving Stover, I preach it constantly.... He is AMAZING!
As for those who are picking apart the game, players and wanting someone's head.... the numbers say it all.... IT'S A WIN, sure they are not the most spectacular numbers we're going to see from the Ravens this season, but again, it's the W.
McNair had 214 passing yards to Dilfers 146 (and how many times did we sack Dilfer?); McGahee was awesome to watch, for 88 yards vs. Gore's 52 yards; and Derrick Masons 82 recieving yards to Gilmores 42. Overall.... we outplayed. Period. We're sitting at #2 in the AFC North.... (and I cannot believe the Bengals have lost 3.... not that I'm complaining or anything (giggle)
As a sidenote and unrelated to my normal Ravens banter, I watched the game with a Redskins fan friend of mine, and watching the Redskins/Lions game was rather high scoring and energetic; however in the back of my mind I kept thinking... "It's the Lions". Lol I know I have heard rumors that their offense is doing much better this year. I see I"ll have to watch more closely. They're both tied for the 2nd slot in their division; however the Skins have to face the Packers on the 14th; and somehow I do not predict they will see such a field stomping festivus. But that's just my 2 cents and as much as I can muster going into a new week with my first cold of the season. Sniffle sniffle, cough cough. I need someone to make me chicken soup.
