Rahim Moore isn't a rookie is he? Has he been the starter all season? He made a mistake and paid for it. It really doesn't matter what statistical analysis says. It was a tough game and the Ravens made the plays to win. I had a big laugh at the Browns', Bengals', and Broncos' fans diatribes on Facebook about how bad the refs were towards the Broncos and how the NFL wanted Baltimore to win. I'm pretty sure the officiating was bad for both teams and that the NFL would have much rather had the Broncos win.

And regarding the practice kick:
Mike Pereira ‏@MikePereira Final note. Officials are told not to allow a practice kick on the field. If it happens they're to tell him to get off the field. No penalty
Edit to say I think the Brady tuck call was atrocious, but that's the way it was interpreted. I don't think there's any argument to be made about the play tonight. It was a clear fumble.
If you watch the ref did come over and say something and they went running off

Got that, Broncos fans? It's not allowed, but like, it happened anyway. No penalty.

The bronco player walking by should have ran over and blocked it. That would have been hilarious and Kevin Garnett would have agreed

I think this first game will be a good one, but as much as I hate patriots...I think they will smoke Houston in the second game

I love Beast Mode, but man does he put the ball on the ground too much. Can't fumble inside Atlanta territory like that after the defense gets a big turnover for you.

It's fun watching football because the "talking heads" and those who derive their intelligence from listening to exaggerated talking points all day, forget that players AREN'T ROBOTS. They make good and bad decisions, and you never know in a split decision, which poor decision will be costly. (IE Manning) - It doesn't make you less great, your resume speaks for itself. However, you have talking point zombie fans, people who don't understand this isn't Xbox, and sometimes you just mess up a game with a bad decision. Happens to the best of them.

Just a great play for the TD there. The Falcons O line is just handling the Seahawks D with ease.

I figured Atlanta would win by a TD but just did not expect them to be dominating like they have so far.

AP is every 67
Arian Foster every 77
He's about average for those style RB
