It’s Prediction Time:

Give Me A Prediction:

This will make it two weeks in a row I’ve picked the Raiders to win. I think both sides of the ball are looking for a statement game, and are hungry to make that happen this week. I have a lot of confidence in this one given the fact that Baltimore’s offense has looked very sluggish out of the gate. Trestman and Norton Jr. have a lot of eyes watching them this week to see who can put together a compete game, and I think last week gave this defense and Norton Jr. some much needed confidence. I’ve got Oakland, 24-13.

Thanks to Mr. Rudolph for giving us such good insight. I agree that this game could be low scoring but I think the Ravens defense should stifle the Raiders more than he expects. I predicted an 18-15 Raiders win, which is a lot tougher than the 24-13 game he envisions. We’ll see what happens. One thing is for sure though, if the Ravens win they are a legitimate monster in the AFC.
