Monday Night Football & Orioles 'Open Thread'

Keep it here on Baltimore Beatdown as we will have an NFL-MLB double-header 'Open Thread.' The New York Jets hope to avoid further embarrassment when they host the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football. The Jets were humiliated in front of their own fans when they were shut out by the San Francisco 49ers last week and now host the undefeated Texans who may be considered the best team in the NFL right now.

Meanwhile, in Baltimore, the Orioles host the New York Yankees in game 2 of the American League Divisional Playoffs. The O's lost game one 7-2 as the Yankees scored five times in the top of the ninth to blow the game wide open. The venue switches to the Bronx for the series final three games so the Orioles need to win this game in order to realistically have a chance at the upset.

Post your comments on these two games as well as your thoughts on both the Baltimore Ravens ugly 9-6 win over the Kansas City Chiefs yesterday as well as their upcoming home game against the Dallas Cowboys next Sunday.

Go Ravens!

Go Orioles!
