NFL Football Picks: Can Ravens Be More Physical Than Titans?

The Baltimore Ravens are not used to the kinds of questions that they have been asked this week. It is rare that a Raven team is asked whether or not they can match another teams physicality.

Baltimore is a team that is used to doing the bullying. They have won a Super Bowl and invoked fear in opponents for the last decade by being the most physical team on the field.

On Saturday, that reputation will be on the line when they travel to play Tennessee. The Titans have established themselves as a power football team. Their offensive and defensive lines are bruising, and the rest of the team follows their lead.

Baltimore comes into the game with a widespread perception that they have a legitimate chance to pull the upset. Observers believe that the Titans are primed for that upset, and that the Ravens may be the better team.

Every time that test has come up, Tennessee has answered the bell. They wrestled the division away from Indianapolis early in the year, and they smashed the Steelers a couple of weeks ago when playing for home field advantage.

Now, they are being called out once again and they will have their chance to respond come Saturday. For Baltimore, it is as easy as one area. Be more physical, and most likely move on to either San Diego or Pittsburgh.
