Ok, so here's my take. I know everyone up there in chowderland is going to be crying worse than their prized quarterback, but here's the facts.

1. Flacco outplayed Brady. The numbers tell the tale.

Flacco- 28 of 39 for 382 3 td's 1 int

Brady- 28 of 41 for 335 1td


2. Ravens- 503 yards

Pats- 396



3. Ravens D got stops when they needed them. If I'm a Patriots fan, I would have to suck it up and come to the realization that the Patriots had the ball with the chance to ice the game. Tom Brady failed.

4. Patriots D couldn't stop the Ravens after the 1st quarter. Here's how our drives went afte the first quarter.
2nd Quarter
- Flacco to smith 25 yd TD pass. Score 13-7 pats

- Flacco to Pitta 20 yd TD pass. Score 14- 13 Ravens
3rd Quarter
-Ray Rice 7 yd TD run. Score 21-20 Ravens

-Punt. Score 27-21 Pats
4th Quarter

-Turnover on Downs. Score 30-21 Pats

-Flacco to Smith 5yd TD pass. 92 yd Drive. Score 30-28 Pats

- Justin Tucker 27yd FG.70 yd drive. Score 31-30 Ravens.


The Patriots had a 9 point lead with under 5 minutes remaining. They blew it, end of story.
