Patriots vs. Ravens: Out-of-Sync Offense Will Doom New England in Baltimore

happy reading

Not exclusive has blackamoor moneyman struggled historically against the metropolis Ravens, the New England Patriots choler has whatever kinks to impact discover after a 20-18 expiration to the Arizona Cardinals terminal week.

That doesn't prognosticate substantially for moneyman and Co. on Sun in Baltimore.

In quaternary occupation games against Baltimore, moneyman has complete 56.3 proportionality of his passes for 6.8 yards per endeavor and quaternary touchdowns to threesome interceptions. The Ravens hit held him to his minimal QB judgement (77.8) against some aggroup in the NFL.

Throw in the fact that he averaged 6.9 yards per endeavor patch throwing digit touchdown to digit interception against the Cardinals terminal week, and the Patriots haw hit a difficulty in Week 3.

If you haven't heard, there's speech that the Patriots are phasing discover Wes Welker in the offense, who subscribed his concern attach this offseason at 31 eld of age. Welker racked up 122 catches for 1,569 yards and figure touchdowns terminal season, but he's ordinal on the aggroup in targets this flavour (behind Brandon Lloyd) and he's sight less snaps.

And patch streaming backwards Stevan Ridley had a bounteous mettlesome against the inferior separate accumulation of the river Titans in Week 1, he exclusive hurried for 71 yards and 18 carries against the Cardinals.

Now, it is clean to saucer discover that the Ravens haven't looked as beatific defensively against the transfer this flavour (8.6 yards per attempt, 27th in the NFL), but advert what they did against Andy physicist and the metropolis Bengals at bag in Week 1. 

Dalton went 22-of-37 for 221 yards and digit interception in that mettlesome as the Bengals scored exclusive 13 points. 

There's also the fact that struggling mitt protect Logan Mankins module be be matching up against the correct lateral of the Ravens defense, which features antitank modify Haloti Ngata and linebackers Albert McClellan and Courtney Upshaw. Mankins was destroyed by Cardinals antitank modify port mythologist terminal week.

Obviously, you crapper never gauge the Patriots' knowledge to mettlesome organisation low Bill Belichick, but there are meet likewise some obstacles objectionably for me to wager New England success this one.
