My Saints finally showed up. Cashed big with man but didn't post due to last two Saints debacles crushed my total on here. I'm superstitious as hell.
Have a clear emotion play here with Ms Modell passing away and Art attending practice and speaking to the team (still strong emotional connection with the family from older players). Remember, pro players sometimes need a reason to get fired up and Art being there is enough for this team. The bigger reason to lay the chalk tho is JAX. They are primed to mail it in early. Yes, they're at home on MNF, they will come out fired up. I also think MJD will have some success between the tackles. But if they get down early and MJD is taken out of the game (figuratively), it could get ugly like the Saints/Colts. Gabbert is not bad, but this Ravens D will confuse him dropping Jarrett into coverage. This game could very well end up 24-16, but I'll take my chances on 24-13.
