La Canfora: 4 Matchups To Watch For In Patriots-Ravens Game

To help preview Patriots-Ravens, 98.5 The Sports Hub's Adam Jones had on NFL insider Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports  & contributor at 105.7 The Fan Tuesday night to break it all down.
"I think the Patriots have proven, once again, that they're the best team in the AFC. They play a tough schedule every year because they're always playing the first place schedule, because they always winning their division. They got that first seed for good reason more often than not," La Canfora said.

Patriots Offensive Line vs. Ravens Defensive Line

Ngata is as healthy as he's ever been in January, and he's going to be incredibly motivated because the Ravens are going to have to restructure his contract, or do something with him at the end of the year. So, can he wreak havoc on some of the younger guys on the interior of that offensive line?"

Ravens Secondary vs. Patriots Pass Catchers

"The Baltimore secondary has been woeful all year, and the guy on paper who's their best player, Ladarius Webb, hasn't been healthy. Big Ben [Roethlisberger] was picking on him all last weekend. So does Tom Brady find a guy to pick on, whether it's Webb or [Rashaan] Melvin? Can the Patriots line hold up, so they can spread out the Ravens and feast on that secondary?
