2015-16: Who Will Win - Ravens @ Broncos

[iknowftbll]

^ It may or it may not. The Broncos may play it safe and put Manning in the shotgun more than a Kubiak offense otherwise would. This plays to Manning's strength as well as mitigates the Ravens familiarity with Kubiak's system.

If relying on the running game the shotgun can be a little hinderance... A few tells from the shotgun not sure Manning will want to give up.

Just looking at the votes you got to think this will be a interesting game to watch.

I think it's THEE most interesting game of the week, from a pure football perspectives. Tons of unknowns and questions with both teams.

The Ravens obviously known Kubiak's system as he was their offensive coordinator last season. Wonder if this comes into play at all on Sunday...

Welcome to the Hoop, bd.....Good to see more Ravens fans over here..
I do think it is an advantage to us, because though I'm sure Kubes and his OC will add some new wrinkles , you can't change a horses color....He depends on the run opening up the pass and loves the middle of the field...
Their D is looking stronger than last yr, but we have an awesome Oline if all are healthy...
Gooooo Ravens

This is a free weekend for the NFL Sunday Ticket on Satellite TV. Everyone should be able to see every game.

I would say that goes both ways. Kubiak knows the offense the Ravens want to run as they have said they are keeping what they did last year because it was so successful. Throw in the Broncos are not just running Kubiak's system. They are mixing what the Broncos have done in the past with Manning with what Kubiak likes to do so only planning for what Kubiak likes to do is a quick way to get your team in trouble.

I don't think it's the same. The Ravens know Kubiaks system Kubiak and Kubiaks tendencies and application of his system but Kubiak doesn't necessarily know Trestmans.

Don't know if that matters but there is a difference.

I can understand that but they also don't know how much the Broncos are going to use the old system that Manning loves to use either. So while on 3rd and 2 under Kubiak might have been a run to the right side most of the time under Kubiak now all of a sudden you have Manning who loves the quick slant patterns on that down and distance as well. So far in the preseason the Broncos in the 2 games that Manning has played have used both systems. In the first game he played almost exclusively out of the shotgun where in the 2nd game most of the snaps were from under Center. I think that was done deliberately so that Baltimore has no clue what they plan to use more often come Sunday.

I think the Broncos take this one...not sure what the line is, but I will call it 24-17.

I think Flacco and the OFC will struggle a little early...new OC, new WR/TE...back end gets a familiar name back at CB, but I think Manning will test them a lot.

How dare you!

LOL...FWIW...I'm hoping for the best, but the PIT DEF has not looked good...expecting a loss myself.

Based on these predictions we'll both be looking up Cincy and Clevelands skirt from below...
