The Ravens where strapped for cash, thanks mostly to Rice, Webb and Pitta. Who combined are counting $30 million against the cap despite not even playing, not being on the team or being a shell of their former self. Ngata and his $16 million cap hit where a likely cap casualty, since they couldn`t agree on an extension. So any compansation at all is a bonus for the Ravens

I think some discretion is needed in order to rank teams. Several times a year a team will suffer a big injury that wil impact the team going forward. Football outsiders will not account for that.

With all the drama in Tampa, and them being 0-4, I think Schiano is coaching for career at this point. So I don`t see him trading players that can help him save his job.

Alot of the todays spending is "wasted" on terminal patients last 2-3 months alive. People that waited too long to visit a doctor, because they couldn`t afford it, or were afraid of increased insurance rates. If the decease was caught earlier likely alot of these patients could`ve been cured, and for less money. That`s what I think the plan was anyway.

http://en.wikipedia....PPP)_per_capita The US spend almost twice as much per capita on health care as anyone else in the world. Could someone please be a dear and explain to me how the ACA is gonna cost more, when more socialist countries with "free health care" only spend half as much money on health care per capita. The whole point of the ACA was to spend less money on health care, not more. It seems as though many are under impression that Obamacare is not affordable. The current system is not affordable, so something had to be done. Obamacare may not be the best solution, but atleast it has to better then the current system, right?

That was the worst game the Ravens defense had all season. Not even Brees, Brady, Ryan or Schaub put up numbers like Fitzpatrick. Not really indicative of how good or bad, their defense was that year. The Bills put up close to 200 yards more then the Ravens allowed on average. No team is fairly measured by their best or worst game. 2011, the defense was 3rd in points, and 3rd in yards. Suggs was league DPOY and Ngata was also a top candidate. That was the year before last. Not exactly ancient history. Last years defense was average, which is why they basicly cleaned house. They still need some time to gel this year, with all the new pieces. But against Cleveland and Houston, there was no glearing weaknesses, although the front 7 is clearly ahead of the secondary. I certainly think the Ravens defense is more talented then the Jets. But that was an away game and this is a home game, and the Ravens are kinda schitzophrenic, so who knows what will happen.

The Ravens running game is really struggling. With or without Ray Rice. Rice is overrated as a runner anyway, plus the O-line is really struggling and the Ravens are telegraphing run plays as they rarely run without fullback Vontae Leach on the field. The Ravens are also a bit dinged up. The d-line had to finish the game without rest the past 2 games, because they were down to 3 or 4 healthy lineman. Other then that the defense has look good the past 2 weeks. But the Houston game is a hard one to gauge, because both teams where shooting themselves in the foot with penalties. If Houston didn`t get a ton of penalties in the second half who knows if they would have been able to move the ball. The Ravens have struggled on the road going back a few years now. Maybe especially in games they`re favoured in. They lost 4 road games last year, and 3 of the 4 wins, they won by 3 points. The year before they lost 4 games, all on the road, and all against teams with losing records. I am not sure you can call this a trap game for the Ravens, when this happens all the time. It`s a weakness. So I see this being a tight game, and defenitly a game the Bills can win.

The Pats D has ranked 25th, 31st and 25th in yards allowed the past 3 years. Not very impressive. It`s not like they face alot of high powered offenses within their division either.

ESPN has Lewis listed with 119 PDs to Fletchers 90. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/964/ray-lewis http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/1680/london-fletcher Either way Fletcher still comes up short, in just about every cathegory despite starting only 3 fewer games, and playing in 12 more. London Fletcher has 84% of the solo tackles, 94% of the combined tackles, 74% of the INTs, 89% of the sacks, PDs are either close(Fletcher by 5%) or Fletcher has 75% depending on the statsite you use, 68% of the total takeaways and 41% of the TO-return yards. And if you combine big plays like sacks, INTs, SFTY,FF,FR, etc. London Fletcher only has 62%. Fletcher has 94% of the tackles and 62% of the big plays. Not really that close. London-Fletcher would have to play another 9 years to have as many big plays as Ray Lewis.

London Fletcher is 230 solotackles, 4,5 sacks, 7 FR, 8 INTs, 340 INT return yards, 1 TD, and 30 PDs behind. Despite having played 12 games more then Ray Lewis. Really not that close.

If Denver gives him 5, they essentially hit a 9,8 million cap hit on him this year with 4,8 in dead money. Denver where willing to pay him 8 million, which means they`ll probably still take him at 3,2 million. But some team will offer alot more.

Really only counting Levitre. The others have arguably already been replaced. Searcy for Wilson. Lawson for Barnett. And Jackson for FItz.

Along with Revis and Millner, they will have a great secondary.

The Bills lose 1 starter off the and I quote "MOST TALENTED TEAM IN YEARS", and all of a sudden it`s the worst Bills team this millenium. This board really cracks me up.

Byrd will be looking for a similar deal.
