AFC Divisional Playoff - Baltimore Ravens at Indianapolis Colts

Well, I guess we know all we need to know about the New Orleans offense.  Congrats to the Saints, who will host their first NFC Championship Game next weekend against the winner of the Cowboys/Vikings game tomorrow. 

That leaves us tonight's game between the Ravens and Colts.  I have been thinking Ravens all week, but two things happened - first, Joe Flacco's hip has been so sore that he can barely sit down.  Beating the Colts and Peyton Manning is hard enough with everyone healthy.  A hobbled quarterback, even with that defense and dominant running game, makes it nearly impossible.

Second, after picking the road team earlier, and watching the Cardinals get beat 45-14, I am a bit gunshy.  That said...

Let's hope this is a better game than the Cards/Saints game.

If Taylor Swift were to try and tackle me, I'd let her.
Why has nobody made a live-action game of Chutes and Ladders? I'd be first in line.

Oh, and John, don't worry about it.

The Ravens had Joe Flacco attempt only 10 passes last week and they scored 33 points. Their offense can still work with Flacco immobilized.

Dear Rockies- What a fun ride! Best comeback in MLB history to become NL Wild Card Champs.

That is a huge throw on third down.

I really thought that penalty on ST was going to kill their momentum, but the Ravens are moving it right up the field.

Nah

It was still better than Buck and Aikman. Those two put me to sleep during a close game, let alone a game that is a 4 score difference.

Then again, Dierdorf is very bad. Probably worse than both Buck and Aikman combined.

So……. I’m not sure. It’s a toss up.

Baltimore is getting plenty of chances,

just can’t capitalize on any of them. Reed fumbles after one pick and the second one called back for PI. TD here and it is over.

I am more interested in who we are going to get to be our offensive line coach

than the Ravens or the Colts ;-)

I would hope you would support who we are. Not, who we are not. Coach Norman Dale "Hoosiers"

I really am anxious to see who we choose.

I think it is every bit as important as the draft.

I really think the Ravens showed up very well this year. I’d be almost happy if I were a fan.

East County.

Padre fans are cool. I root for them and am happy if they are winning, however with all the steroids going on in baseball I am not a fan of baseball anymore.

Do you think Dallas Clark’s nickname is “Big D?”

Do you think Austin Collies is “Dawg?”
