(Week 13) Detroit Lions vs. Baltimore Ravens

(7-5)
(6-6)









VS.
RECAP: Ravens 44 Lions 20
Between the loss to the Vikings last week and the loss to the Ravens this week, it's apparent that purple is NOT a good color on the Lions. The Ravens defense made Matthew Stafford their punching bag, sacking him three times and forcing him to fumble twice. This week, however, the Ravens offense also decided to moult the cement off their wings. Joe Flacco's receivers were on point, Alex Collins ran well...THIS is the Ravens team that needs to show up in the postseason. The Ravens controlled this game like Vince McMahon controls the WWE, and if Flacco can keep his offense chugging, Baltimore will be more than a match for the other wild card contenders in the AFC. Can't say the same for the Lions though...Yes, the Ravens defense has always been smash mouth, but the ease at which they got to Stafford is frightening.
