    So do we want the Bengals to be 3-0, or the Ravens
    0-3 headed to Pittsburgh on Thursday night?

    I don't think it matters. On paper, the Bengals should crush them.

    As far as whether it's better for the Ravens to be 1-2 or 0-3, in days past, I would say 1-2. But the leadership isn't there anymore. The Cult of Ray Ray isn't there anymore. An 0-3 start for THIS Ravens team might be a soul crushing, deflating ego burst. This team could fold under that weight.

    Maybe the bigger issue is: how far ahead are we prepared to let the Bengals get? Sure, they're going to come down to Earth eventually. But we can ill afford to not keep pace with them in the meantime.

    Ugh... its hard to watch either team win, but given the current standings and schedule I'll be hoping for a Ravens win on Sunday.

    If this Division sends two teams to the playoffs (you kidding me, playoffs?) the it should be the Steelers and the Bungles. The bengals can't win in the playoffs, so they are favorable over the Rats.

    Yes, agreed. I'm hoping the Bengals crush them. Everything about the Ravens makes me want to vomit. When they lose it's almost as good as a Steelers win.

    Yeah the bungals play the ravens tough, even when the ravens are really good. I think this is going to be a blow out and an 0-3 Ravens will be coming into Pittsburgh, which in turn they will be leaving 0-4.

    Same here. I'd like to see the division records even out a little bit with the Bengals being brought down a notch.

    I thought about this... normally I would want Ravens to win given the situation of our division, and I wouldn't want a desperate 0-3 team playing us, however:

    1. Ravens play us tough don't want them in the playoffs
    2. Bengals will fall down as usual
    3. They have no leader so a 0-3 start might just start the collapse
    4. bury raisins bury
    5. who cares it's our division now bwahaha

    I think the Bengals are a far better team than the Ravens this year. I really don't care who wins tho. Theoretically we'd prefer the undefeated team to lose, but having a chance to put the Ravens to 0-4 on Thursday night would be pretty awesome

    I'm hoping gingerpicks and Flacco both get sacked about 10 times each and throw 3 or 4 picks lol

    Oh that would be so awesome! I'd be totally happy if both teams beat each other up so bad they mentally tank the rest of the season (except Eifert because he's on my fantasy team).

    I would rather the Rats go to 0-3 .The Rats are the bigger late year threat and would rather them stack up as many losses as they can as quick as the can.

    I don't care, if we play up to our potential, we'll beat either one. Agree with SG though, would be sweet to send the rats home 0-4 :thumbs up:

    It would be better for the rats to go down in the regular season because regardless of how crappy them and their qb are they have seemed to have some good luck on their side in recent playoff games. Don't even give them a shot to get there.
