First off is obviously the contract Billy Cundiff signed with the Ravens yesterday.  Hopefully he will be a valiant replacement for Steve Hauschka.

Our record shows us a lot of things. We see how strong we started, we see a team a team that has potential, but a team that is mediocre.

What a sad excuse for a game.  Tom Coughlin said that his Giants’ game against the Chargers was “a one-game season.”  The Ravens’ game was just as important.  They’re now 2 [...]http://ebonybird.com/2009/11/09/a-pathetic-performance/feed/1http://ebonybird.com/2009/11/08/week-9-ravens-vs-bengals-preview/GamesPreviewsRavensRavens v Bengals key matchupsRavens vs BengalsRavens vs Bengals PreviewJoe BarnesSun, 08 Nov 2009 08:14:00 PSThttp://ebonybird.com/?p=1585For some reason, WordPress is acting up, and messing up the layout and my changes on this post.  Hopefully it’s not this way for you, but there are crazy spaces between sections and crazy bold and italics.  All the content is right, but the layout is just crazy.   Opening Thoughts This game is huge.  If the [...]http://ebonybird.com/2009/11/08/week-9-ravens-vs-bengals-preview/feed/0http://ebonybird.com/2009/11/07/qa-with-a-ravens-youtuber/RavensArianaBengals vs RavensRavens Q&ATHEaTEAM52Joe BarnesSat, 07 Nov 2009 19:30:36 PSThttp://ebonybird.com/?p=1579After having a Q&A with a Bengals blogger, Mickey from WhoDeyFans.com, here’s another session of the questioning and the answering, with Ariana from THEaTEAM52 (yes, the caps are on purpose).  You may be familiar with her from her frequent, mostly Ravens-themed Twitter updates or her account on YouTube.  Enjoy, and a preview and predictions are coming [...]http://ebonybird.com/2009/11/07/qa-with-a-ravens-youtuber/feed/1http://ebonybird.com/2009/11/07/broncos-vs-squealers-ravens-implications/NFLRavensBroncos-SteelersPlayoff ScenariosRavens-BengalsJoe BarnesFri, 06 Nov 2009 21:46:18 PSThttp://ebonybird.com/?p=1574This week, there are only two games in the AFC North.  Obviously, the Ravens-Bengals game is most important to us, as if the Purple Birds can nab a win, they pass the Ben-Gals in the division standings.   The other game, on Monday night in Denver, will become very important down the line for the Ravens’ divisional [...]http://ebonybird.com/2009/11/07/broncos-vs-squealers-ravens-implications/feed/0
