he is on the ravens as his play

this is the write up from the play book. Not his play. But his play is on the ravens today. I don't have that write up though

t’s been over three months since these two crossed paths in a 27-
21 Patriots’ win at Gillette Stadium and the New England ‘dynasty’
appears to be winding down: distracted QB Tom Brady is married
to a supermodel, head coach Bill Belichick is making decisions that
appear to be driven by dementia rather than genius, key players have
defected or retired – and no matter how hard the Patriots insist that
they’re every bit as hungry as the Ravens, we just don’t buy it. At first
glance, our database tends to support the New Englanders. The Pats
have dominated this series, winning all six meetings outright while going
4-1-1 ATS. Even more persuasive is the fact that playoff road teams
off a road game are just 22-37-3 ATS. Even so, our feeling here is the
Ravens are the one team nobody in the AFC wants to tackle right now.
The Black Birds are an okay 7-4 SU and ATS in postseason play this
decade but they’re far more competitive under fiery leader John
Harbaugh. The second-year coach has compiled a solid 22-13 SU
and 22-12-1 ATS record during his tenure. The clincher comes when
his Ravens face a team off a loss: Harbaugh is a stunning 13-1 SU
and 12-2 ATS in that role, including 9-0 ATS when his team is off a win.
The bellicose Belichick may be 14-5 SU in his playoff career but he’s
only 9-9-1 versus the number. With the loss of WR Wes Welker and
Brady creaking with multiple lingering injuries, we can’t envision the

Pats going far this season. Take the points in this brutal war of attrition.
