Week 16 Ravens Pre-Game Thread

Skip Bayless gives Brady some love.
 
Of course, given the Bayless style of fellating athletes and describing them in Jeterian proportions, the article may give you indigestion even if you agree with his overall point.  You've been warned.

Bill broke routine and took them to the movies.  He was really chatty at his press conference.
 
This has to means that they had a great week of practice and that Bill is pleased heading into Sunday.  Beware the Pats after a great week of practice.

I wonder whether Belichick is making an effort to appreciate the smaller parts of the game in his later career. He was always that type of coach, to be sure: didn't he give the whole team a day off in training camp if Wilfork could catch two punts one handed?

Anyway, you can tell he just loves being around the NFL and running a football team.
The last few seasons his Friday press conferences have often turned into the BB Comedy Hour, now he's taking the team to a movie. It's part of why I can't really imagine him walking away and retiring to Nantucket full-time.

His character does, yes. He's cast to be the obnoxious Boston fan that everyone loves to hate, so people can watch reasonable people beat up on him.

OUT:
 
Boyce

 
Solder and Thompkins too as both did not travel with the team.
 
Boyce out also probably means LGB will return kicks again...
 
EDIT: did my vomit-smiley just break this thread for a minute?

With Blount taking on primary running duties, I think McCourty / Slater will be on kickoffs. They were week 10, the last time Boyce was inactive.

On ESPN I believe it was Mike Reiss who said Mankins will play Left Tackle today.  I was on a treadmill wondering what exactly the warning signs of a heart attack are, so apologies if it was somebody else.
