And now the herd begins to thin. For the second week in a row, we have a new team in the Cellar. That's right. The 2-5 Kansas City Chiefs won themselves away from the beer and now, the 1-6 Baltimore Ravens are this week's Kings of the Cellar. They beat out fellow the 1-6 Detroit Lions, because the Ravens are enjoying their second three game losing streak of the season.
This week's honorable mention goes to the 2-5 San Diego Chargers. Yeah, the 2-5 Dallas Cowboys should have gotten the mention because of their four game losing streak, but after further review, the ruling has been changed. The Chargers had their star players on the field, yet they still went on a three game losing streak and lost five of their last six games.
Next loss...
Baltimore may catch a break this week, because they will host this week's honorable mention, the former Los Angeles Chargers. The series is tied 5-5. They first met in 1997, when the Chargers won 21-17. They only went to overtime once, in 2012, when the Ravens eked out a 16-13 win. San Diego and Baltimore never met in the postseason and neither team has ever shut out the other.
Haven't done this yet this season, so here we go. Here are the historic scores for teams playing each other this week from October 28,
1951 San Francisco 44 - Los Angeles Rams 17
1960 Oakland 28 - New York Titans 27
1962 Los Angeles Rams 28 - San Francisco 14
1973 Miami 30 - New England 14
1973 Pittsburgh 20 - Cincinnati 13
1979 Cleveland 38 - St. Louis Cardinals 20
1984 Chicago 16 - Minnesota 7
1984 San Francisco 33 - Los Angeles Rams 0
1996 Chicago 15 - Minnesota 13
2007 Pittsburgh 24 - Cincinnati 13
2007 Indianapolis 31 - Carolina 7
Will the Ravens hold on to the beer in the cellar? Will Detroit kick Baltimore out and take over? Will the Chargers continue their epic collapse and secure the first pick in the 2016 draft?
Stay tuned.
Have a great day!!!
