Just 2 Days to Go
The Divisional round of the playoffs start in 2 days. It feels like forever for me, I can just imagine how the teams feel that had a bye last week. They must be really ready to go.
The first game is Saturday at 4:30 PM eastern time. The Ravens visit the Titans. The Titans have injury concerns that could give the Ravens a serious chance to win the game (remember the fifth graders in MA that’ll be rooting for the Ravens again).
The Ravens defense took care of Chad Pennington and the Dolphins last week causing them to turn over the ball repeatedly. Will Kerry Collins stand a chance against that defense?
Saturday night (8:30 PM eastern time) has the Cardinals visiting the Panthers. The Cardinals have been dismal on trips to the east coast this season. Maybe the fact that they are playing the late game, it could work to their advantage.
The Panthers have won the last 3 matchups between these 2 teams, including a game earlier this season. Every time the Panthers have made the playoffs, they have made it to at least the championship game.
