Just one game, but had a nice 23-6 win over the Browns with the Ravens. Pass defense was pretty tough on both sides. Flacco only completed 53% with 1 TD and 1 INT.

Run game was pretty solid - granted it was against the Browns. Rice had 4.5 ypc (26 for 114 yds). McGahee was even better - probably because he wasn't as worn out as Rice. I need to come up with a better way to rotate backs.

Their run game was nice also. Lewis had over 5 YPC. Derek Anderson was really why they lost - just couldn't move the ball at all in the air. I think he had like 3 yds per attempt or something.

Both sides got 3 turnovers. 2 INTs and a FR for my D, 2 FR and a pick for their D.

I used Very Slow/85 (I usually run slow/60 or 65). Speed still mattered significantly. Rice ran away from DEs and slower LBs on outside runs. DBs closed ground, slower guys like McClain couldn't outrun anyone.
