3. Ravens win convincingly:

The Baltimore Ravens are going to win this game and they’re going to send a message to the NFL. If the Ravens were to lose tonight, everybody would say that this is the same old Ravens team, nothing’s changed and blah blah blah. I think everyone in Baltimore is tired of losing to the Bengals in games they should win. I think everyone in Baltimore is tired of hearing that the Ravens aren’t that good. John Harbaugh and company want to send a statement to the NFL that the Ravens are contenders.

That’s why, I think the Ravens win by 10. It will be a close first half. The Ravens will see their first real resistance of the season and the Bengals home crowd will be hyped out of their minds. The Ravens are going to find their way and when they do, the Bengals are in trouble. The Ravens have a better roster and this game is personal to them. The Ravens are going to go out there and show the world that they are the AFC North champions to be. They are going to look like contenders.

Next. Ravens vs. Bengals from a Fantasy Football perspective. dark

The Ravens haven’t lost a game since last season. They went 5-0 in the preseason and dominated the Bills. Since signing Michael Crabtree and John Brown early into the free agency period, Baltimore has had so much positive momentum brewing. This Ravens team has a chance to be very good. They will show that on Thursday Night Football.
