[Cartoon_Cartooon]

man i would say what i really feel but i dont wanna get banned....all i have to say is REX F'in RYAN!!!!

[BmoreLAT52]

another game we fought our hearts out for taken from us.

[Cartoon_Cartooon]

doesnt it feel like the pats did this on purpose??? that they got our hopes up when they knew all along they could beat us easily!?!?!

[ragnorok99]

All I can say is...this hurts.

[streyker5671]

Hey, Bills fan here.... you guys definatly deserved to win tonight. Awesome game. I hate the Cheatriots.

[apollo11]

Damn guys, I feel your pain. So damned close!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[n9necount]

Still, mad props guys. You guys brought it to them and it's unfortunate how it turned out. One thing is for sure, you guys did what the Redskins didn't do--show up to a game after your buddy is killed. Couldn't be prouder to be a Hurricane right now. McGahee, Lewis and Reed played their hearts out

[JimJ]

Heartbreak of the year. This feels worse than the crazy kick against Cleveland. We were SO close to knocking off one of the best teams football has ever seen. We stopped them three or four times on fourth down, only to have it taken away for various reason and Boller throws up a pass with 8 seconds left that is one yard short of being a MIRACLE. I'm stunned right now.

[sdfan]

HI, I am a San Diego fan, but I just wanted to say your team played their hearts out, you guys had that game soo many times! But you can't beat the NFL or the refs, they seem to want Brady to be God. Good game, sorry how it ended.

[melissalehr205]

Packers fan here and what a game that was. I have never wanted team to win so bad and never has a game brought me to tears. The defense worked their %$# off and 23 and 32 can tear some %&$# up! You deserved that game more than any team I have ever seen and I hate pretty boy brady and the pats more than ever!

[jack butters]

hey folks I am a Philly fan and I want to say you guys deserved thIS game.. everyone that hates the Pats were rooting for you guys. THE REFS GAVE THIS GAME TO THE PATS. The FIX IS IN.. TOTAL BU******!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[apollo11]

Man, we got charger, packer, dolphin, and eagles fans here. Looks like there are plenty who cannot stand the pats as much as charger fans. Keep your heads up baltimore.

Another game where a b-----t call gives the game to the opposing team. Ryan's huge timeout mistake aside, the defense played hard all game to have some clown of an official make 2 bad calls. The back made a great play late in the game and the ref gave the Pats another first down.

[Slick]

This hurts. A lot.

I'm proud of our boys and what they did, but this really hurts.

Literally one yard shy of doing what 93% of the nation said couldn't be done.

We already did what 93% of the nation said couldn't be done simply by beating the 19 point spread against us.

What we didn't do, is what 100% of the nation hasn't done, which is win.

We led the whole game basically and then the ending and...just... wow. Steve McNair got reincarnated but his body got left behind, Kyle Boller is amazing, and I still can't believe we lost by 2 yards....

hell of a game....but i think im gonna cry. our team deserved this win, and i really hope they arent torn apart by this. they did such an amazing job theres no way you can blame any one thing. they gave it everything they had and it should've been enough but forces beyond our control cost us the game.

It really seemed like everything was clicking this game, Boller was playin like a true leader (only one real mistake all game, and wow he took a beating [as usual]), McGahee was running like a beast (over 5 yards a carry and over 150 yards... wow!), our recievers were making plays (a shame Devard couldn't get another one though), and our defense played a hell of a game and got beaten by a hairline call of the refs (coupled with other things but w/e). Yamon Figurs had a great game as well.

All in all this game showed the heart of this team.

And then broke it on national tv.

Maybe next year.....

I hear you on that, just shows that anything in the NFL can happen.

It's great to see all these fans of other teams coming out of the woodwork to support us in one of the most painful losses I've ever experienced, maybe the worst ever. Being that the Pack is my favorite NFC team, I'll be pulling for you guys to go to the Super Bowl and beat Brady and Co. there.

[VA_Fan]

Hands down, the time out cost us the game. We had this game until that time out. The Ref's sucked tonight too.

[starlight]

Hey guys- I am a Packer fan. I just made an account here so I could post this. I only saw the 4th quarter, but I just wanted to say that you guys played your heart out- and deserved to win that game. If it were not for the ref's bogus calls, giving the Patriots chance after chance, you would have won hands down. In my mind, and I know I'm not alone in this, you won it. One of these times the Patriots will fall....you guys proved that they are not invincible. You played a great game tonight.

[Drkraven]

You know what? This game was our season in a microcosm, face it we are snake bitten. I loved what I saw and I think Kyle has it to be QB.

[Sharri]

Hands down, the time out cost us the game. We had this game until that time out. The Ref's sucked tonight too.

As far as I am concerned the Ravens won this game. You can't beat the refs and the team. Ravens are awesome!!!!!!

[PRS Guy]

Ravens football has meant more to me than almost anything else, ever since coming to our great city from Cleveland...

I look forward to games so much all throughout the week. Wear my jerseys on gameday, read scouting reports, and am so very excited right up through kickoff...

The word that comes to mind is passion. I am passionate about Baltimore football...I love it beyond words.

That said, I have never been so disappointed and anguished after a loss. I was to the point of tears. NE is a joke, the entire organization is a disgrace to the NFL, and all the media that continuously places itself in Brady and Co. jockstraps make me so fuming mad that it has become difficult to breathe. I am really at a greater loss for words than I've ever been. All I can hope now, is that I can see a victory over the Colts next week. I'll be in Section 139 if anyone else has tickets near there. Hopefully our boys can keep the momentum up and bring all of us in Charm City a much needed win

I hear you on that, I'm really pullin for Favre for the NFC spot in the superbowl. as for AFC, well im fine with anybody going all the way as long as its not the Pats, Colts, or Steelers.

Ahhhhhhh im still like in shock.

[canadary]

Billick for President? What do you want to do... invade another country with time outs... old QBs and no weapons? It's time for a new game plan billick... it's callled.... ... winning... you haven't done it since last year!!!!!!

The black is going to make it harder for the Pats' cameras to see our defensive dignals.

[ragnorok99]

As others have said, I really appreciate the support from fans of other teams. Thanks guys.

[theFRANCHISE]

With everything good and truly JUST in this world, Brett Favre and the Packers HAVE to silence Bill Belichick and the Patriots in the Super Bowl if no AFC team will.

wow no need to hate, I think Billick has put together a hell of a team and you could see it in how they played tonight. Just imagine next year as Boller continues to blossom and McGahee continues stepping up. I'm so feelin this team right now, we deserved this win and if only we hadn't had such a rough start (injury wise etc) we could be 12-0 right now.

i just cant see how you can rip on the team like that after this game

[SalvatoriS]

Cowboys fan here, feeling your pain. I really wanted to see you guys win this one after getting so close... at the end it really seemed like the refs were going to find a way to give the game to the Pats no matter what you guys did on the field. If you get 3 or 4 shots at 4th down, your chances of making it are pretty good. If nothing else, at least you guys made people remember the phrase 'that's why they play the games'. You can't just assume the outcome, and the Patriots aren't invincible.

If the Pats do manage to have a 'prefect' season, they should still get an asterisk for the Jets game they got caught cheating in, and maybe another one for this game the officials handed them.

The Raven played a game tonight that the entire NFL should be proud of. The played their hearts out to honor the loss of a friend and I hate that it was stolen from them by a bunch of selfish pretty boys that wouldn't know honor or passion if it sacked 'em all game. The Patriots will fall and when they do, you will hear it round the world! The Ravens really should have been the ones see it happen... now it will just have to be the Pack.

[Slick]

agreed, this was a though loss to bear... to be so excited throughout and then to have it slip away int he very end is just....mind-numbing. I couldn't even describe the feeling I had when the refs gave them the td. and then the catch as time ran out.....just.....wow.

i think i even saw a bengals fan for a second there.

insanity.

I appreciate the spymathy, it's classy to come here like that so you got my respect.

plus, its nice tho know were not the only ones to think we got ripped.

I agree, the cheating scandal should not reward the patriots if they pull off an undefeated season.
