I forgot about the Art Modell angle that can be played. They'll dedicate the Lombardi Trophy to him after they win it.

Exactly. And I am pretty sure that Steve Bisciotti wanted to fuck Jim Nantz. The way he greeted Nantz was equally as weird as the way Ray Lewis started softly performing the heimlic on his owner. Weird as shit.

And the only way the Ray Lewis storybook should close is inside of pen.

Yeah I never pay attention to predictions on the Browns threads much tho. But BR knows I was just kidding with him. Really I wouldn't have guess the Pats would have scored lower than 20 points in this game.

As for Suggs I've never really been too much of a fan of him but that quote is awesome.

Ha you had every reason to think the Pats would win. I thought your score prediction was a little rough but picking the Pats at home wasn't a dumb pick.

Flacco has been Joe Montana so far and the signing of Boldin a few years back may bring them a title.

I'm not saying its bad. It's amazing they were able to cover up all their holes and jack of talent. Injuries were rampant. They had to go gimmick.

Oh I knew what you were saying.

Things are falling into place for the Ravens AND they are making huge plays.....but Flacco and the Ravens far more resemble the Giants than Joe's niners.

Suggs is such a douchebag. Hope Goodell throws a big ass fine his way.

Didnt Welker drop a pass in the SB last year that really hosed them as well?

I was surprised that Brady lost.

The only way I can explain as to why brady and manning havent lived up to the hype in recent memory. First off is just the nature of teh game, and law of averages.

Secondly...it is like having a very high tech machine that is very touchy. WHen it is working well........nothing is better, but when things arent aligned up right things dont work as well. They may be a more delicate and prone to malfunction when all the parts just arent working well..more working and moving parts that make it great but all have to be working properly.. Then you have another maching that does the same thing. It isnt as glitzy or glamerous, and when both are working at 100% efficiency it wouldnt stack up to the other one. BUT..there are less moving parts...less things that have to work in harmony, etc. Not as many things have to work and go right for it to producta good product,


I think at times manning and brady led teams get too cute at the LOS, too cute on offense, and rely too much on going after a certain weakness that maybe they lose sight of their own strengths and what they should do. They dont impose their own will on other teams as much as a team like the ravens.

It was a pretty hard adjustment. Seeing that the Patriots offense did not score at all during the second half, I dont consider that drop as "hosing" them. They couldnt do anything.

I wouldn't call it sealed - but that drop was huge, and so was hernandez not running out of bounds at the end in the first and wasting the team a TO. Could've taken a shot at the endzone instead of settling for a FG. The holding call on Solder was huge too costing us a first. Tom Brady being afraid to get hit and not running for the first of 4th down. The patriots made a ton of mistakes and Baltimore didn't. You can miss that many opportunities and expect to win. Pollard has now injured 4 patriot players. fuck that guy.

Yeah, because I'm the ONLY one here that thought the Ravens would score more than 14 points. :rolleyes:

And the jury is still out on Weeden, soccer player.

Why do you keep saying that? We know others said the Ravens would get blown out. You're arrogance is really what stuck out. "No way the Pats only score 14" aka "I'm BR, I read Cleveland blogs and listen to Cleveland radio, I know exactly what I'm talking about and state opinions as facts."

The jury is not still out on Weeden haha come on. Dude's terrible and you know it.

So now we're not allowed to have opinions on here? I'm not the only one who thought they'd score > 14 points. I might have stated it in a confident/matter of fact way, but so what? When I got back on here I was the first to laugh at myself with the "swing and a miss" comment.

No, I don't "know" that Weeden's "terrible." I do know that Pat Shurmur is a "QB killer" and screws up every QB he touches. I want to see Weeden get a second year in a system that suits him better.

Don't read Cleveland "blogs" or listen to Cleveland radio either, Pele.
