against betting fans jets line rocking upbeat
They have a right to be disappointed in me and the way we've played, but I'm betting that our fans when we line up against the Jets are going to be rocking and rolling. We better give them something to be upbeat about. If we can deliver, I think we'll be off and running.
challenge coming helmet imagine line means mentality noise offense percent run stadium thinking wear
I'll say it again: It's the Indianapolis Colts that are coming into our stadium with a mentality that our quarterback is going to run his offense at the line 80 percent of the time, ... I can't imagine what that means to Baltimoreans to see that Colts helmet in this stadium and them thinking they can run their offense on the line. Fans, the challenge is there. Keep up the noise because we can wear them out.

He's like no other quarterback in the league. That's what makes him so dynamic, ... There's so much they do at the line. They don't do a lot personnel-wise. They don't do a lot formationally. Everything he does, he calls the entire offense from the line basically.

ability confident force hesitation huge impact lewis reckoned run taylor
We're very confident when Chester Taylor is in there and we have no hesitation with him. But Jamal Lewis is a force to be reckoned with, and when it's all said and done, he will have a huge impact on our ability to run the ball.
