Ravens @ Chiefs
Sunday – 10/7/12
1:00 PM
This Sunday at 1:00pm the 3-1 Ravens roll into Arrow Head Stadium in Kansas City to take on a struggling 1-3 Chiefs team. Baltimore leads the all-time series between the two with a 3-2 record. Their last meeting ended in a 30-7 beat down in the 2011 playoffs with the Ravens being the victor in that contest. Kansas City is 0-2 at home this year and will be looking to get a win in what is considered one of the loudest home crowds in the entire league. Baltimore has been on the road only once this year and that ending with a 1 point loss at the hands of the Eagles.
The Ravens are coming off a nice extended week having battled and defeated the Cleveland Browns on last week’s installment of Thursday Night Football. This was a much needed break because Ed Reed and company stated after their victory over Cleveland that they were battling fatigue in the fourth quarter. This rested Ravens team is going to be blood thirsty in their quest to pick...

Is there any doubt left in the minds of Chiefs fans everywhere what needs to happen next? The Chiefs must move on from Matt Cassel FAST.This may sound a bit harsh, considering the Chiefs as a team and organization all stink right now, but Matt Cassel is the main reason the Chiefs are a losing franchise. I say that with some reservations, not because of any doubt that it's true...

"I'm not the type of player that looks over his shoulder," Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel said this week. In Kansas City and among Chiefs fans everywhere, he doesn't have to look over his shoulder to know they are angry and demanding his job. He can hear that, even if he doesn't watch TV or listen to sports talk radio. The 2012 season was the year where...

Ravens safety Ed Reed has taken on more of a leadership role in the locker room, and the eager youngsters on the team are reaping the benefits of his advice.
Reed has become a tireless teacher on topics including film study and keeping fit before and during a long NFL season. Reed knows quite a bit about both, given that he's tallied 59 interceptions, scored 14 touchdowns and...

Like a classic jigsaw puzzle, the Kansas City Chiefs have many of the pieces to make a Superbowl run. But also like every jigsaw puzzle, if you are missing, even one piece, you cannot complete the puzzle. You can’t compensate for the lack of a missing piece, and you can’t force a piece in if it doesn’t fit.The Chiefs have a lot of the puzzle pieces nicely put together.Consider...

The Kansas City Chiefs are owners of a 1-3 record, and all three of their losses have come by 13 points or more. Quarterback Matt Cassel has the 29th-best passer rating among starting quarterbacks in the NFL.
So the 2012 Chiefs season is not off to a great start, and fans, some more than others, are frustrated.
A group of the angrier fans, coming together through Chiefs website...

Appealing a $21,000 fine from the league office for his crushing hit on New England Patriots wide receiver Deion Branch, Ravens star free safety Ed Reed characterized NFL rule enforcement as confusing.
Reed was fined for striking a defenseless player in the head and neck area and was penalized with a personal foul. Branch was shaken up, but unhurt and Reed shook hands with him...

It's going to be a long week if you're the quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs like Matt Cassel is. People are talking about his status as the starter -- Romeo Crennel talks about it, his teammates are asked about it and of course Arrowhead Pride readers are writing about it.
So, does that bother Cassel?
"I have tunnel vision," the Chiefs QB said on Wednesday...

The Ravens are 3-1 coming off 10 days rest while the struggling Chiefs are 1-3. Can you spell "Trap Game" ?I think coach Harbaugh is able to get his team in the "proper focus" frame of mind...and to avoid getting trapped into looking past the struggling Chiefs.The Ravens will try to again make things difficult for Matt Cassel, whose turnovers have been one...

After struggling in their lone road game, there is some concern with how the Baltimore Ravens' no-huddle offense will perform Sunday at Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium, historically one of the league's loudest venues.
Although the noise can be deafening, the fans there haven't had much to cheer about.
Coming back from a well-deserved break, the rejuvenated Ravens...
