Found December 10, 2008 on Blogimore Ravens:
There are plenty of potential scenarios. Please don't take this as gospel. That having been blogged, if we win two more games, we'll definitely make the playoffs. That much is science.

Win one game:
Probably miss the playoffs
Win two games: Definitely make the playoffs
Win all three remaining games: Definitely make the playoffs but still probably lose the division.

It would be disappointing to miss the playoffs, but no matter what happens, this season has already exceeded my most optimistic pre-season expectations. Thanks to the Ravens for one hell of a show thus far. It's been great. Thanks to Ozzie for drafting Flacco.

If the Ravens find themselves in the playoffs, I think they have a better-than-average shot of winning it all. That's what I wrote more than a month ago, and my opinion is unchanged, provided that we don't face Peyton. Let's face it: The Colts have our number. I'd rather play Tennessee on the road than the Colts at home. Peyton scares the bejesus out of me.

Don't you just love how I switched from third-person to first-person? All of those high-horse people out there who hate when fans use first-person to talk about their favorite teams: Start your own blog and write in the third-person. Until then, I'll do whatever I want, justified by the thousands of dollars I've spent on PSLs and season tickets, and also the fact that I don't really care what you think. Find better things about which to worry. In the meantime, I'm going to sit back and watch us make the playoffs and then win the Super Bowl.
