Turning up the heat for Miami

This might not be a bad time for the Ravens to use the indoor facility. They should go inside and turn up the heat to simulate possible playing conditions in Miami.

The Dolphins have been known to give their players IVs before a game to prevent dehydration.

The Dolphins know that most teams aren't used to playing in such hot conditions, so one of the things they try to accomplish during a game is to out-work the other team.

The Dolphins will use any kind of trick including wearing white jerseys and forcing the other team to wear their dark ones when opposing teams visit Dolphins Stadium.

At this time of year, the Ravens have sauna-like conditions inside their practice facility.

Are the Ravens going to wear those ugly black tights again??

From what I have read, the Ravens have no plans to sport the ugly black uni's.

Turn up the heat? If a few degrees will suddenly generate a pass rush and an offense, then I will foot the BGE bill!

I agree on the 'turn up the heat' statement. I would gladly contribute funds to the utility bill for suddenly creating a pass rush and a defense. Also include some CB's as well. Will it make McCalister miss the game from fatigue? Hope so.

I honesty believe we can win three out of the next four games, at least.

Miami: They're not the joke team they were last season. They are faring well, but still mediocre. However, Cam Cameron used to be their head coach, so he know's how Miami defense is gonna react.

Oakland: If we can't win against Oakland's below-average defense, then it'll definately be time to get Joe Flacco out of the starting position. They really are a terrible team, what 1-4 now?

Cleveland: We already creamed them big time. Plus Derek Anderson is an overrated QB

Houston: Like Miami, a pretty mediocre team. We definately can pull that one off.

As far as Sunday's game is concerned, no excuse! Peyton Manning, whilst he has a strong arm, tends to choke when under pressure, and that's something Ray Lewis and the Ravens defense can do well. So our Defense was way too soft, as though they were bribed to lose.

And somebody, anybody, please tell Chris McAllister to wake the *** up! Burned out three times like that? What drugs was he smoking?

the black pants are about the only good thing ive seen from the Ravens this year. ugly black unis? what in the world are u talking about? the blackouts are the best unis in the NFL, and probably all of sports.

With Cam at the wheel and Harbaugh's comment....
