The Official AFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME THREAD: Ravens @ Patriots - 3pm Sunday Jan 22nd (CBS)

[T0INE]

As bad as Flacco and the Ravens' offense looked today I think that they can pull the upset next week.

The Ravens' offense won't be as anemic  as they were today and the defense will be hounding Brady all day.

Ravens win.

 

[dt43]

Actually yea that was high, NE -3/3.5 makes sense. the public will prob pound NE.

I hope our oline gets it together by Sun, got whipped like stepchildren. I know Bill is watching that Chargers game film, if they use that blueprint offensively they will have the upper hand

"As scavengers, ravens know how and when to take advantage of other animals to help them cadge a meal they couldn’t otherwise reach."

Taken from PBS.com. Perfectly sums up the ratbirds. They have to scavenge a very week AFC this year. Pats are beatable because of their D, Steelers have to retool their o-line & secondary, & the Colts were without Peyton all year. They beat the Pats at home in the playoffs so there shouldn't be a psychologically held back. If they don't do it this year, they ain't getting to one in a minute. They've proven over & over in the last 10 (yes 10 years) they can't hang with the big boys.

Root for the Browns 14 times a year man, but my Raven passion is crazy. Ray & Ed have been my !#+%$*% dudes for years

My man, I've never even seen you type the word Ravens. You use the term ratbirds excessively and I am not even a Bmore fan.

I don't see the Pats beating any of the last 3 teams left. Isn't the jets the best defense they've played all season? srs question.

^ being from Silver Spring, aren't you a ******* fan? Ravens are scavengers or rats with wings so that's what I call them. Being a long time Steeler fan, I dislike the ratbirds but I'm never going to resort to telling another fan to shut up or use jail/prison terminology like getting off one's nuts (feathered ones at that). It's crass. See you fans can't seem to separate personal feelings or talk intelligently when it comes to talking about sports...Sad....

That being said, I think the ratbirds have a godo chance of beating the Pats but Cam & Flacco have to attack the middle of the field. That D has problems defending the middle. Their o-line needs to do a better job protecing Flacco too. Heard a lot of ratbird fans talking that Flacco +%* again but don't seem to realize he got sacked 5-6 times Sunday. Those WRs either dropped balls or made amazing catches. Never any consistency.

 

[gameover2]

Patriots by 9

For the love of God, go Ravens.

Not really that crazy about football, but I've been a HUGE Brady fan since 01.

I honestly see the Pats winning it all this year

 

[lebronh8er]

Will be a great game, hope Ed Reed is ok, dude plays hard and would hate to see him out of this one. I think that the Pats take it, NFL is all offense anymore, D has become overrated.

Ironically 2 of the 3 best offenses in the league were just eliminated and 3 of the 4 teams remaining have some of the best D's in the league... I hope our Run D finds a way to slow down Ray,that should be the main focus. If Rice is unnefective, I'm perfectly fine with leaving it up to Flacco to beat us with his arm 

. Our Pass D is pretty bad though...yea they should work on everything. Hoodies prob still having nightmares of that wildcard game 2 years ago,I know I am

.

 

[harm]

2 of the Most scariest Offenses Lost this weekend .. why cuz they can't play D

Patriots beat the broncos

ok ..

I got Ray Rice ( and Ricky Williams ) goin HAM on the worst D in the Leauge ..

Flacco is gonna be fine ..

Again .. Worst D in the Leauge

 

[TheGift23]

PBS was quoted in here.

Patriots do the world a favor and DESTROY the Ratbirds.

Crass....yet you call us the ratbirds.

Your lack of respect is ridiculous but i guess i can see that as Steelers fans seem to think they are better than everyone else.

I will continue to use whatever terminology i like to describe you and your rusty old men.

 

[misterp0315]

As a Colts fan, I hate the Patriots...but I do not want to see the Ravens in the Super Bowl.

Especially with the Super Bowl coming to my city...I would love for the Patriots to make it there and take that L.
