NFL Week 5 Preview, Prediction: Denver Broncos Vs. Baltimore Ravens

When: 1:00 p.m., Sunday, CBS

SB Nation Broncos: Mile High Report

SB Nation Ravens: Baltimore Beatdown

Breakdown: On the surface I'd say the Ravens will take care of business but the best kept secret in the NFL to this point is Kyle Orton. He's having an incredible start to the 2010 season and if you look at his yards through four games, only Kurt Warner in 2000 has had a better start. Orton will be able to make this game interesting and the Ravens can play any style of offense that you want.

Player to Watch: Ray Rice. I think the Broncos will be able to move the ball on the Ravens somewhat effectively but ultimately Baltimore needs to get a lead and use Ray Rice to run this thing down. At home, I can see the Ravens getting an early lead and leaning on Rice the rest of the way now that he's fully healthy.

Prediction: I'll take the Ravens here but Kyle Orton and the Broncos will make it interesting.
