    That was against the Lions, it doesn't count.

    Just play ball like we've did all year and we'll win. We're the better team.

    Win the turnover battle.

    Get pressure on Flacco with the front four.

    Keep stupid penalties to a minimum.

    Play 60 minutes of intense football.

    On offense the Titans will need to establish some type of running game to open the passing game up. Reed eats QB's alive when there is no rushing attack. The Ravens rarely lose to teams that have less than 70 yards on the ground.

    On defense, you have to get good pressure on Flacco all game and stop the run in the second half.

    We're going to have to stick to a balanced game. We need to get a lot of rushes in, but keep a realistic passing threat going without giving up turnovers. We also need to get pressure from the d-line. Hopefully that will have improved from last game, and we can rattle flacco. I'd love to beat the ravens with a defensive TD.

    Better hope the Titans didn't turn it off too much against the Colts.
    It isn't easy as flipping a switch.
    It will be a great game to watch!
    Could go either way depending on how the ball bounces!

    I agree with this 100%.

    We'll get our chances with Gage and BJones in single coverage against Ivy and Walker later, but I'd just run the ball every down for the 1st quarter.

    No-one put up 300 yards of offense on the Steelers vaunted defense until we played them either, so I'm certainly not scared about moving the ball against Baltimore. We won't need 30 points to win, so a punt is not a bad play.

    I don't see us allowing any sacks to B'more. We didn't last time we played them and our pass protection is just as good as it was before, if not better.

    In their first match-up, the Titans really didn't do much with Chris Johnson. They need to get him the ball in the flat. They'll have to use the TEs in the short passing game like they did in the first game. Quick and high percentage passes.

    Mawae will probably be out for this game. That's a concern and Leroy Harris needs to step up big because he'll have Ray Ray in his face all day.

    I don't think you'll have much luck against the Ravens D-Line.
    Titans will need to attack #31 Fabian Washington just like the Dolphins did.
    He is the weak link.

    If Fisher is smart, he will keep pounding the ball between the tackles. I know the Ravens D is tough on the run, but to be honest, I think too many teams give up on the run too quickly.

    The Ravens stuff the line, but they seem to give up 2-3 runs over 15 yards a game if the opposing team rushes for the entire game. Give up the run and rely solely on the passing attack and it's almost a sure bet for a loss, unless your name is Peyton Manning.
