The Ravens will try to make up some ground with what is left of the season against the ever-struggling Lions. Baltimore started the season with 3 consecutive wins and had high hopes of the AFC North title, but since then it has had struggles of its own. The Ravens have lost six of the last nine games and are now three behind the division leading Bangles. Cincinnati is in position to clinch the division on Sunday, but it won’t come easy, as it plays the Minnesota Vikings at home.
The Ravens last played the Lions on Week 5 of the 2005 campaign. The Lions actually took the victory that day, as they ran wild for four touchdowns in a 35-17 rout. According to NFL Betting Odds makers at SBGGLOBAL.com, the OVER/UNDER for this Detroit Lions vs Baltimore Ravens NFL Week 14 contest has been set at a combined total of 39½ points scored.
Baltimore comes into this game with a sour taste after having lost to Green Bay last week. In the middle of all the penalties, a season-high of 12, and a number of unfortunate turnovers, Green Bay came away with the win 21-14. "We've got plenty to be encouraged about," Ravens’ coach John Harbaugh said. "We're in a tight race for the wild card, we are every bit in it. Everybody, they'll say what they'll say. It's a week-to-week proposition in this league."
As for the Lions, they will be playing without first overall pick, Matthew Stafford. The rookie quarterback was injured in their Nov. 22 game against Cleveland, where Detroit earned the 38-37 win. Despite his injury, Stafford continued to play the following weeks, but finally aggravated the injury in last weeks Cincinnati game.
Daunte Culpepper will be in for Stafford on Sunday looking to upset the birds. "Daunte is our backup quarterback," coach Jim Schwartz said. "We've had no change in our depth chart. We have a lot of confidence in Daunte."
