The Baltimore Ravens are set to take on the Tennessee Titans in the AFC division round and the Ebony Bird team gives their two cents on the matchup.

Site-expert Chris Schisler:

The Baltimore Ravens are a better team than the Tennessee Titans. The Titans aren’t a bad team and they have to be taken seriously. This doesn’t give the Ravens an excuse. They should win this game and they must win this game. The Ravens have won 12 straight games. They have blown out their opponents more often than not and they have statistics that will make your jaw drop. With all the talk about this game, many are forgetting just how good the purple and black are.

The Titans are a good team but they are getting too much hype. Ryan Tannehill is getting a lot of credit for being better than Marcus Mariota, and playing at a high level. It’s still hard to trust Tannehill, especially after a lackluster game in the win against the New England Patriots. If the Titans had beaten the Texans or the Bills in the first round, the narratives around this game would be completely different. Because it was the Patriots, and because it was on the road, fans and analysts have convinced themselves that the Titans are in the same class as the Ravens. They’re not. The Ravens have beaten better teams. Even if the Titans play an incredible game if the Ravens lose it will be because they didn’t get the job done.

Here’s what will happen in this game. The Ravens will make the Titans one dimensional and lean on their pass defense. The Ravens will get out to an early lead and keep their foot on the gas pedal. You already know the formula, because you’ve watched Ravens games all year long. The Ravens beat the Seahawks, Texans,. Bills and Patriots. The Ravens got the Patriots before the wheels started coming off and Tom Brady‘s squad was undefeated. The Ravens have impressed too much to have their fans go into this game to be this nervous. Give me the Ravens. Give me the Ravens big.
