Buy Ravens vs. Colts tickets
Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts come into town on the 22nd of November. As with any game against the Colts, there is a premium on tickets being sold on the secondary market for this game. You can usually find the cheapseat tickets for $95 or less, but the lowest I’ve been able to find for this game are $115. The prices on the luxury seats and those around the 50-yard line are about the same as they normally would be.
Buy Ravens/Broncos tickets HERE – 11/1/09
The Broncos make their annual visit to M&T Bank Stadium on November 1. This will be the Ravens first home game in 3 weeks, so you can bet there will be plenty of fans clamoring for tickets after going through Ravens-withdrawal. The cheapest tickets I’ve found for this game are in the $90 range from the link above, but there are also premium seats available ranging all the way up to the $3000 range. For that price I think I’d rather have Orioles season tickets.
The Ravens loss to the Patriots on Sunday dropped them 6 spots all the way down to #7 in ESPN’s weekly power rankings. I think they’ll rebound quickly, as the Patriots are clearly once again one of the premiere teams in football and the Ravens really should have had that win. One dropped pass and a flurry of terrible penalty flags that were a clear effort to protect the league’s poster boy Tom Brady were really what brought the Ravens down on Sunday. Don’t expect the same result come playoff time. The NFL knows those penalties were wrong, which is why none of the Ravens that spoke out about them after the game will be receiving fines. The quieter this situation is, the better for the NFL. They really don’t want every talking head on TV to go and examine the films from that game and actually see what the Ravens are complaining about.
This is not a repeat from last week. The Baltimore Ravens are still considered the best team in football. They have a great defense (as always) and they are scoring an average of 34 points per game. Really the only team that can come close to the Ravens right now are the Colts, and they played poorly enough in week 1 to give many doubts about their ability to stretch a 3-0 start into a 12+ season. The Ravens, on the other hand, have been dominating.
