I'm just wondering if Tgann thinks the loss to the Browns at home is a quality loss. Or maybe that was still a part of the most difficult portion of the schedule, and it's getting much easier now.

Man, I didn't have much faith in the Ravens and even I thought they'd beat the Browns at home.
Ravens have taken a hit but it's not over unless they lose this weekend to the 49ers.
They could go on a long winning streak and get a wild card......

They're a decent field goal kicker away from being 0-5. They aren't capable of going on a long winning streak. Even if they beat the 49ers, they'll be lucky to be 4-7 at the end of November.

Chiefs local media I think had convinced every Chiefs fan that this was the year that they finally break through and beat the Broncos (still could happen I guess) and win the division while also doing well in the playoffs. I have some of the Chiefs sports writers that I follow and man were they disrespecting the rest of the AFC West all off season. I do feel bad about them losing Charles. I don't really feel bad for their media folks and some of their fans as some of them were wishing to end the career of Manning before that week 2 game and after the game were hoping somebody would put a bullet in the head of Von Miller. Even some of their media folks got pretty classless for a while. Now most of them have just disappeared.
They probably should've beat the Broncos but good teams don't make stupid mistakes like that.

As far as the rhetoric I agree, awfully confident for a team that last won a playoff game 22 years ago.

sarcasm. It's always one more game and "we'll turn it around"

It wasn't just the local KC media, though. Quite a few national writers were all over the Chiefs, too. A couple from NFL.com picked them to win the division.

Agreed, I think the NYG started about as poor and went on a major winning streak...this Raven team though...if they played the Steelers every week they would be 5-0...nothing gets them up more it seems.

They have problems that I think will take more than a few games to fix...I don't see them sustaining a long streak...137 PA thru 5 games is a lot for any OFC to overcome and it showed up big time in this game.

Perrimans injury is a sprain to an MCL... Harbaugh already said his is the longest in history and they scoped it last week and zero damage. He will be back what hat means who knows but he is instant speed...

Gilmore Pitta Taliferron Steve smith all coming back... Gilmore and Canty are back this week... Which is huge for Flacco.

Just so you don't say "I never said that"
