Titans-Ravens round three



The Titans-Ravens rivalry returns to LP Field on Saturday. Despite all the stories that will be written this week, most of them much better than this one, there will be something missing from this Titans-Ravens game. It won't be seeing former Titans greats Derrick Mason and Samari Rolle playing for the Ravens, it won't be the trash-talking, that will certainly be there.

The thing that will make this different isn't the players, it's no Brian Billick. Without Billick, it's just another playoff game. Billick gave the game it's spice, it's edge; without him there are no great quotes, no smiling and laughing, no making fun of the refs, no blowing kisses to opposing players. Harbaugh is a good coach but he's vanilla on the sidelines Billick was interesting and entertaining.
Hopefully the Titans send the Ravens on their way the same as they did in 2003, it just won't be as much fun without Billick.

Good, I'm a bit sick of hearing how great their D is. This is the same D that gave up late TDs to the Steelers and let the Boys come back and almost beat them.
