Five questions to ask about Ravens vs Eagles

Before I even get into my blog, I would like to take the time thank Kim, Sam & Mad River. If Barbre can play but Brooks cannot, Seumalo plays right guard. Baltimore (7-6) can capture its first division title in four years if it wins the last three games in the regular season.

Yet Mathews was not on the field for most of the Eagles’ final drive, when they scored a touchdown with 4 seconds left, and also when they went for the two-point conversion to win the game.

Wentz came into the game ranked 19th with 35 completions of 20-plus yards. “The explanation that the ref gave me was that the ball got tipped”. As a result, he’s thrown eight touchdowns to just three interceptions in those games, while completing 71.2 percent of his passes and averaging 302 yards per game.

“It’s never going to be flawless, but you can’t let the imperfections turn into 40-yard runs, 50-yard runs, 60-yard touchdowns”, Jordan Hicks said.

The Eagles have one more road game on their schedule, and it’s not an easy one..

Then they lost, 27-26. Last week I went down to watch game, like I would any other Sunday and to my pleasant surprise the booth that I usually sit in was nicely decorated for my birthday (12/2). “There are no moral victories. We fought, we could have won the game, came up short”. “Everyone wants to play, but I have faith in my teammates”. It’s one thing if play was not there. “We did what we were supposed to do: give ourselves a chance to win in the end. And I think you realize how hard it is to win in this league, and again to be consistent with that, so you really just got to learn to focus in on every play, and forget about the previous play, and just take them all at one play at a time”, said Wentz.

Finn is off a 100% flawless 4-0 (100%) NFL card last weekend, is 7-3 (70%) with his Game of the Year releases lifetime at WagerTalk captured an easy NFL GOY victor a year ago and is 45-24 (65%) iwth his National Football League releases dating to Nov of last season. That didn’t make any sense. Matthews pointed out how the Ravens went to cover zero and blitzed Carson Wentz. “The play was open”. Although there were initially fears of rain in this game, Roth says rain is “likely” but won’t last all game and winds are more of a concern blowing at 20 miles per hour with 30-plus mile-per-hour gusts. “Guys were excited running the ball”.

Mathews wasn’t even on the field for the play.

Defensive players said the choice to attempt a two-point conversion in the closing seconds while facing a one-point deficit was a no-brainer.

Play Wentz because you want him to complete a full National Football League season, but protect him at all costs. They should have more success against Eagles rookie Carson Wentz, who doesn’t have many weapons on offense.

“It showed coach’s aggressiveness and his belief in us”, Wentz said. “That’s one of our staple plays that we run”. Coach Doug Pederson elected to go for the win.

“The play call, the play design, everything was built for that situation”, Pederson added. And if not for Wentz deciding to use his feet instead of passing on the touchdown at the end, the Eagles wouldn’t have used it at all.

Harbaugh said Wednesday that he didn’t have to speak to his players about looking past the Eagles. “I thought we had them on their heels”. Was it a call I wanted to be in? No. Make you feel good about yourself. If the NFL Network is part of your cable package, you can also live stream the game through the NFL app on XBox, Apple TV, or Roku device on your TV.
