Coming off disappointing losses in Week 2, both the New England Patriots and Baltimore Ravens will be desperate for a victory when they face off on Sunday Night Football this week.

After losing tight end Aaron Hernandez to an ankle sprain, it is likely that we will see a new-look Patriots offense on Sunday. The team struggled without the 22-year-old star in last week's loss to the Arizona Cardinals but will undoubtedly look to take advantage of a Baltimore secondary that gave up 371 yards to Michael Vick in Week 2.

The Ravens will not only look to fix their secondary woes, but they should look to revive balance in their offense. 

This will mark the teams' first meeting since the 2012 AFC Championship game, which the Patriots won, 23-20. Both teams undoubtedly remember that game well and will come out firing on all cylinders. 

Though both teams come into Sunday's game at 1-1 and tied atop their respective divisions, neither team can be particularly happy with its play thus far.

Hernandez's absence caused the Patriots offense to become stagnant against Arizona last week in Cardinals territory. Before missing a potential 42-yard game-winning kick at the end of regulation, Stephen Gostkowski had already kicked four field goals.

For an offense led by Tom Brady and a myriad of other weapons, getting field goals in those situations is not good enough.

Look for the Patriots to come out and try to recapture a commanding offensive presence en route to staying atop the AFC East.

On the other side of the field, the Ravens also lost a very winnable game last week in Philadelphia.

Despite four turnovers from the Eagles, Baltimore's offense struggled to take advantage due to ineffective play from Joe Flacco and a seeming abandonment of the running game. The Ravens succeed when Ray Rice runs the ball 20-plus times. Having a ratio of 42 Flacco throws to 16 Rice runs in a non-blowout is a curious decision to say the least.

With the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals both having winnable games in Week 3, it's critical that the Ravens get the job done at home on Sunday.
