For the 2008 Skins the defense brings it every single week. And the offense is better than the 2000 Ravens.
The point is that, although winning pretty would be nice, we may be on the right track.

I beg to differ. The Ravens D was killer, the offense was adequate. Our D is good and our offense has dropped recently from being great to just adequate(statwise it is excellent, but it is points that count). Our D does not produce turnovers, but the 2000 Ravens did. The Ravens also played in a rather weak division. The NFC East is rarely weak. The game that will help us truly gauge this team is the MNF game against the Steelers. This team might just have a hard time getting up for weak games and get jacked up for the big ones. The Pittsburgh game is the next 'big" game. Hopefully we will rise to the occasion and kick some ass.
