Confident Ravens look to earn road win against Houston

 

The Ravens go on the road to play a 3-5 Houston team that just lost to the erratic Minnesota Vikings.  The Ravens, standing at 5-3, are in the thick of the Wild Card hunt and should be able to beat the Texans. 

Let's face it, the Ravens have a certain spirit about them.  It was clearly visible when the Ravens surged to an inspiring romp over the Browns.  There's a sense that the team will figure out a way to get a win.  Whether it's the confidence of Joe Flacco or the tenacity of Terrell Suggs, the Ravens are brimming with opportunistic optimism. 

I think, quite clearly, that the Ravens will get the win on the road this week.  This would be a good game to go for short passes and use the running game to control the clock.  The Ravens should win this game, which is crucial because games against the Giants and the Eagles loom.  I'll give my official prediction on Friday.  Stay tuned!
