NFL Playoffs

[Zand]

Take out the Rice touchdown and you have 51 rushes for 150 or so yards. Plus allowed about 30 yards on 10 passes. Thanks to the fact that the offense mainly either went 3 and out or Brady fumbled and got picked just about every drive, there wasn't much they could've done better. Obviously they got burned badly on he first play of the game, but other than that I thought they did pretty well considering how much they had to be out there and how many times the Ravens started in Pats territory.

as a ravens fan, i respectfully disagree.




how did baltimore not have a stellar game? they played old school, smashmouth football and made the pats look mortal. i was surprised by the amount of pressure the ravens were able to put on brady when they blitzed...something they really did not do all that well this year against anyone.

give the ravens their due for forcing some of that bad play! :razz:

I'm a Patriots fan so had to look for a highlight of the day some where!! Good luck to your team!!!

i dont follow the NFL, but did just realize we'll be up at Stowe for 3 days and that Sunday is Super Bowl, maybe that'll keep the crowds down...

Was in Foxboro yesterday (my first Pats game ever)... ugly. Hopefulyl Brady lays low all winter and lets himself heal because he wasn't himself yesterday. Defense played well... can't blame them for Baltimore getting the ball at the pats 25 every drive. They need some big changes up front... D line and linebackers looked lost. Also need some coaching changes... Belichick shouldn't be spending so much time conditioning his own coaches, definitely need better O and D coordinators, especially O.

Funny thing... my dad was at the game in 78 when the Pats last lost a home playoff game against the Oilers. Family curse I guess.

Hopefully things will look up next year after some overhauling. Surprisingly, I'll be rooting for the Jets now.

The Pats game was pretty much over after 5 minutes. They came out flat and were completely outplayed by a team that wanted it more. I doubt I'll watch any more of the playoffs. I'm a homer.

I'm rooting for the draft picks and some quality unrestricted free agent signings. The team needs more leadership and the team needs more talent that can grow into being the play makers.

Spoken like a true Jet fan!!!

AFA this weekend, I'm gonna be rooting silly for the Ravens and then of course my beloved Jets. Wouldn't it be great to have the AFC title game at home?

[happyjack]

would LOVE to see a jets-ravens AFC championship game...that would be a knock-down, drag-out brawl.

and i think any rex ryan coached defense has a puncher's chance at winning any game.

I have a gig(drums) Sunday at 7.... I'll be setting up during the game... Sucks... I may be hammered by the time it's gig time...

It didn't take a miracle, they pulled it off. AFC championship game next week! Hell Yeah!

J.E.T.S. Jets! Jets! Jets!

Instant karma coming our way?... can they beat Payton?... gonna be fun!! being a true Giant fan i've always seen the Jets affectionately as our little brother. i'm so happy their keeping my football season alive!

Giant fans have been super cool about this whole thing...
Much better then when the MEts do better then the Yankees..

 

[deadheadskier]

I would love to see Indy lose to the Jets. After not trying for half the game in week 16, Indy doesn't 'deserve' to beat the Jets.

It would be poetic justice. As a New Englander, I can't ever root for a New York team but I can at least be neutral on this game. If the Colts get a lead, the game is over. If the Jets keep it a tight, low-scoring game, anything could happen.

as good as Revis is, a rookie qb a rookie coach going against a seasoned vet in his building, i cant see anyways the colts can lose this game then again i said that about the chargers, who oh ya just gave their coach an extension and for what winning 11 in a row during the reg season? The chargers have been the biggest waste of talent and biggest chokers in the nfl for the last 5yrs now

 

[FRITOLAYGUY]

Ok seriously now i wanna hear from JETS fans as to why you have a chance tomorrow?

The fact that they've picked Shottenheimer and Turner as HCs is mind blowing. Even prior to going to San Diego, both coaches had histories of choking in big games.
