Who’s da man here – rookie Joe Flacco of the Ravens or Oakland’s second-year man JeMarcus Russell? Well, it might take more than just this game to figure that one out. Russell appears to be making some progress, with a 17-for-30 performance and no interceptions last week against the Jets. Oakland, at home, got bailed out in overtime by Sebastian Janikowski’s 57-yard field goal. Of course, the Baltimore defense knows how to drive Russell batty.

And NO ONE runs on the Ravens, who have allowed just 2.9 yards a carry and 69, 47, 76 and 71 in their last four games. So there is going to be an edge with the Baltimore ground attack, which features the pretty decent one-two punch of Willis McGahee (293 yards) and Le’Ron McClain (281).
