Cardinals vs. Ravens preview: Joe Flacco is not elite and how the Ravens can win

With the Arizona Cardinals and Baltimore Ravens set to play one another on Monday Night Football, we have to preview the show, right? Naturally. So this episode is actually about the Ravens. Host Jess Root brings on Matthew Stevens, lead editor for Baltimore Beatdown, the SB Nation Baltimore Ravens site, to talk about the Ravens and their tough start to the season. We find out the Ravens had huge expectations, with aspirations of competing for the Super Bowl. Then things fell apart with key injuries. He also tells us that quarterback Joe Flacco is not elite (gasp), but he is really good. And strangely enough, with one of the best running backs in the league, a top 10 QB, a great run-stopping defense and a bunch of sacks, they can't win. But their close games are because they do things well. Stevens tells us how the Ravens can win and how they can lose. Make sure to have a listen and to head to Revenge of the Birds for more Cardinals coverage.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
