Anyone calling for rookie quarterback Troy Smith in Baltimore will have to wait a bit longer. Despite a mild concussion last weekend versus the Dolphins, Ravens coach Brian Billick plans to start Kyle Boller.

"Kyle, clearly, in my opinion, gives us the best chance to win the game," Billick said Monday.

With the Ravens losing eight games in a row and posting a 4-10 record overall, many feel it should be time see what the rookie QB can do, but Billick maintains that Boller will be his guy for the remainder of the season.

"Kyle played very well, and deserves the opportunity to continue to grow and get what he might out of these last two games," Billick said
