Last time the top O went against the top D was 2002 Bucs/Raiders.

This result...isn't looking too different so far lol.

I must be at McDonald's because I'm Loooovin It.

I sense an "accidental" power outage.

This is on track to being my third favorite Super Bowl ever LMAO

Rooting for the Seahawks but I think Denver wins.

Sorry Sherman, love ya but it won't be a good night for you.

Fox has awful sports coverage. Last year with CBS was so much better. These team intros suck.

I'm glad the weather can't be used as an excuse. Go Seahawks!

Just went through NYC on my way back from work. The traffic was crazy, roads blocked off and all. I went by the espn camp and met life stadium.

During that 45 minutes + I'd say I saw 5 Seahawks fans for every Broncos fan. The weather is beautiful out. It felt like driving through 1 giant stadium with how many people were out walking around, streets blocked off, cops and cabs everywhere....I'm finally on the turnpike and I'm getting the hell out of dodge!

Ugh it's so annoying that it's gonna be warm on Sunday, especially since it's so cold this week.

Lol people hate Sherman for talking too much and Lynch for talking too little. Sports fans are such hypocrites.

I will never root for Peyton Manning.

Go Seahawks.

Yes, if you download the app I believe it is hosted as well. That is, if you have a decent internet/wifi connection

Harbs said they vetted 30 names, wow.

Is there any way I can watch the presser on mobile?

I want to be the first to apologize to John Harbaugh.

Nobody saw this coming. One day I'll learn to stop believing the media about the Ravens. They're like the freaking FBI. They reveal nothing.

The quotes are not from the presser, they were afterwards when Preston talked to Bisciotti in his office.

I don't like Preston because he tries too hard to make himself a part of the story instead of just reporting it. There's a reason guys like Hensley and Valkenburg have gotten promotions and he hasn't.

PFT's usually full of it, but if those Biscotti quotes are legit, you have to wonder just how involved he is in the move.

PFT sources Preston though, so take it with a grain of salt.

There's no way this is solely a Harbaugh move, unless he's completely changed his philosophy of staff hiring. I think it's a little of 'let's work together, but I'm going to get this done with or without your complete support' kind of thing.

"@MikePrestonSun: Kubiak trying to put together offensive staff before he takes Ravens job. Members of old staff are in trouble."

This coming after Castillo was openly promoted to OL coach? Is Kubes a Harbs move or a Stevie B move?

dhstandard might be a prophet lol.

Kubiak is now the favorite according to Schefter! - https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/427802290867552256

Apparently we met with him yesterday along with Dennison.

Baltimore sport and life article on Jim Hostler! http://baltimoresportsandlife.com/baltimore-ravens/jim-hostler-even-qualified-install-nfl-offense/

so points to look at Jim and his time with Offenses!

What went wrong with Anquan Boldin in Baltimore that he couldn’t top 65 catches, and didn’t sniff a 1,000 yard season in three seasons while still considered in his prime? This is the first question I’m asking Jim Hostler in any interview.

To sum it all up, what does Jim Hostler have to hang his hat on?

• One good season of Santana Moss, followed by regression
• Failure to develop two first round QBs, Pennington and Smith
• Complete failure in Alex Smith’s case as the number one overall pick
• Regression in one of the league’s best running games when he installed his game plan in SF
• In six years with the Ravens he’s got Torrey Smith, jury still out on Marlon Brown, and a long list of what could have been
• Regression of Anquan Boldin who just proved he can still put up great numbers in any offense on the wrong side of 30 years old

Someone enlighten me? What makes Jim Hostler qualified to install and run an NFL offense expected to produce better results than the Ravens offense did in 2013?

No doubt Jim is a better coach, even though he's annoying.

If Hostler is chosen and the offense struggles again Harbs should absolutely be on the hot seat next year.

It's telling that Caldwell never even considered him for the OC job in DET. I'm not sure Hostler got consideration anywhere.

The fact that this is even a debate for them is frightening. No doubt Harbaugh is sticking up for Hostler.

If the Ravens pick Jim Hostler over Kyle Shanahan for offensive coordinator, based on their track records, it won't be a football decision.

Agreed.
