Ravens/Dolphins: 3rd Quarter

So, I really want to see Baltimore play the Steelers now. That would be a fantastic game. Baltimore would have to beat Tennessee next week (assuming they win this week and the Steelers beat the Chargers) to set that matchup. The AFC is stacked with insane defense.

15:00

Ronnie Brown just died. Nagta, or whatever his name is, just destroyed Ronnie Brown.

13:27

Fabian Washington picks off Chad Pennington. Two points for me! I’m still losing by 35…

The Ravens defense is good.

12:39

Joe Flacco can’t thrown on the run very well. This is followed by another incomplete pass to force a Ravens punt.

And the ball is downed at the one.

Prediction: Touchdown Ravens. Or a safety. One of the two.

12:11

Long running play gets the Dolphins out of safety range… for now.

11:30

Ricky Williams rolled out as if he were going to throw a pass only to tuck it and run. Sadly, that is really their best option at this point.

This is followed by another Pennington pass that is almost picked off. On the following play he is sacked and then throws and incompletion. The incompletion is followed by an end-around that is fumbled and recovered by Suggs. Ravens Defense: Brick Wall.

9:33

This Ravens defense looks alarmingly like the one that won the Super Bowl. The difference is this team has a rookie quarterback. I feel this will be their undoing at some point.

7:35

John McClain busts up the middle for a nine-yard touchdown run and the Ravens have a 20-3 lead. This is absolute domination by the Ravens for the last quarter and a half.

7:15

Ronnie Brown doubles his fantasy output with a 23-yard catch and run. He has done nothing in this game. The Ravens have been that good.

6:09

Chad Pennington avoids another sack and completes a first down pass to Ted Ginn Jr. Pennington follows that up with another completion to Ginn. The no huddle offense seems to have made a difference, as Pennington completes his third consecutive pass to Ginn. It is at this point I am asking myself, “Why didn’t I draft Ginn?”

3:21

Ginn makes another catch. Where has this been all day?

2:36

Good news for David Martin owners: He caught a pass. Bad news: He lost three yards. Worst news: You own David Martin.

1:52

ED REED!!! Reed makes another interception, but appears to have hurt his knee on the tackle (I don’t think knees are supposed to bend like that – you know, sideways). Still… TWO FANTASY POINTS FOR ME!!!

Ravens defense now has 18 fantasy points.

:00

The Ravens run the ball on a third and five. It appears they have no desire to throw the ball the rest of the game. Don’t blame them.

20-3 Ravens. Fourth quarter coming up…
