After losing to the Atlanta Falcons, the 6-3 Baltimore Ravens continue their tour of the southeast against the 1-8 Carolina Panthers. Easily the worst team in the league, the Cats have the worst points differential by 30 points, and their only win was against the San Francisco 49ers, who were 1-5 at the time.
Oh, and they're probably giving rookie QB Tony Pike his first NFL start against Ray Lewis and the guys Ray Lewis screams at. Oh, and their other able-bodied QB, Armanti Edwards, is sort of technically a WR. As a division rival fan, you sort of wish there was something you could do to help out.
The Ravens, by contrast, are loaded with talent and all pissed off. They're a double-digit road favorite, but that might be selling them short. Carolina has lost by fewer than ten points only once all year. If Baltimore wins by a single score, we'll be sure to blame the Great Roddy White Pushoff of 2010.
