Divisional - Baltimore Ravens (11-6) vs. New England Patriots (12-4)

[Pats]

Congrats brother!

Thanks, hope we get a superbowl for our efforts i'm pretty sure we beat denver or indy. Draft well fellas and come back even stronger next year. If you guys get a good wr and te in the draft you will be unstoppable.

[IceDevilHH81]

Pats deserve that win! You lose a 2x14 point leed you deserve to lose… still proud of our team! Just some missing parts especial at the DBs  – we will have a successful team for years to come! Still believe the Superbowl will go to a NFC Team!

[Inqui]

Season was nice while it lasted. We've achieved so much this season so I can't be too mad, but it just sucks donkey balls to lose the way we did. We came so close, yet ended up so far away.

 

The worst part is that those [profanity deleted] arrogant Patriots fans who never gave us a shot will now go and pretend they're the greatest team in the world and that they were never nervous for a second. They'd be full of [crap], but at least we made it as close as we did. I hope the Seahawks [profanity deleted] them hard in the Super Bowl.

 

Time for a trip to my local bottle store. I hate this game.

[Dfence4champs2052]

We tried, no shame in this, am very proud of how hard we played. 

Moral victories are awesome aren't they?

[The Mom Gene]

Send a big Thank You card to Flacco, cause he just screwed us good. That was possibly the best screw over by a NFL quarterback ever. Oh, and his defense did a fine job too. Keep playing 10yrds off a receiver, you might cover someday. Someday like never! Oh, and don't forget you got Casper the ghost covering behind you, so just let that guy go by.

Are you kidding?????  really????

[Grapple Raven]

Honestly, I can not say the better team won!  I am so proud of our guys, they played with heart and gave it all they had.  Sometimes it just isn't meant to be!  We will be back and we will be an even better team!

[cobrajet]

At least they can't take beating Pittsburgh away from us

[Purple Punishment]

No excuse for blowing two 14pt leads. Despicable defensive coverages all game. He just picked us apart with 2-8yd passes

[Raving_Heathen]

Oh stop it. Flacco was great all grame. It was a bad play call and yes he made a mistake. Torrey could have helped more. 

 

Also, without Flacco, this game wouldn't have been nearly as competitive.

[Guest]

we didn't even get to rush the passer in the 2nd half because brady was throwing dinks to wide open guys

 

they exposed our secondary.....we literally got dinked and dunked to death

 

and they torched Melvin who had played well in the few previous games...........our secondary killed us

[PoeDinkum]

Poor decision making on Flacco's part!  

It is absolutely poor decision making. Sure Joe played well, but he got impatient when it counted. When you look at this tape again, time after time you will see running lanes for Joe to make the defense pay ESPECIALLY on the last play that he threw the INT on to end the game. Sad. I thought Joe might actually shut down his critics, instead he proved he still remains under Rodgers, Brady, Manning, Brees and possibly Wilson.

[kennethyamini1989]

Defense blew two..not one, but two 14 point leads. I was sure if the Ravens got to 30 points they would win. This D could stop Ben but couldnt stop Tom....and the Pats completely abandoned the Run. 

[MTRavensFan]

Great game. Really proud of our guys for hanging in there when no one gave us a chance.

[GrimCoconut]

Damn. Ravens played hard. The secondary just wasn't good enough. Our Achilles heel ended up being our downfall. I'm not even mad and it doesn't sting quite as bad. I think the team overachieved and for that I'm happy with the results. 

[cursona pirate]

Nobody blame this on Joe. I swear.

[Dfence4champs2052]

Win....there's nothing else for me. Can't wait for the other teams to join us that won't be champs.

[kassaiscool]

The Patriots have no deep threats, but the Ravens played them like they did. Tom Brady ate up all the cushion the corners gave the patriots receivers. On top of that when the ball comes out so fast it demoralizes the pass rushers. Dean peas can get away with that against scrub qbs, But Brady made him pay. Plain and Simple

Vent thread is open for business

[Challenge Accepted]

Flacco played a hell of a game. This one is 100% on the defense. We just dont have the personel. Come back next year even better.

[ravensdfan]

What else do you want peea to do? Run man? He was basically forced to run that zone

the offense gave them a 14 pt lead twice. And they couldn't stop anything. Playing zone is one thing - playing 10 to 20 yds off the receivers is another. He is crap and so is his "style".

Absolutely 

[paulhs94]

Even though we lost, I'm still happy with our postseason results. I never thought we'd make it this far, especially after the Chargers game. Beating the Steelers at home and knocking them out of the playoffs is good enough for me. I expect us to come back better and hungrier next season.

[cobrajet]

Well I hope you don't let an Irsay team or a Elway team advance......I hate them both.

[H8R]

Thank the defense for this... TWO 14 pt leads, evaporated by horrible defense !

[Sami84]

Matt Elam was an abomination. 

 

Also the amount of times we stripped the ball of them only for that little turn edleman to get it back

Exactly 2nd & 5.....c'mon man!!!! I don't blame him for the loss it's on the defense but that was stupid.

[ta2d1]

All in all I'm happy. Played those guys toe to toe.

[PoeDinkum]

Exactly. DISGUSTING. This is on Pees for making our offense have to play an unbelievably perfect game. Pees had his tail outcoached and obviously Bellicheat knew something when he let him go.

Sorry, where is Brees right now?

Our great fans right here.

[Wildabeast88]

While it is a disappointing end on the bright side of all the injuries we did find some guys that will be very good players. Melvin and Urschel and Yanda as an option at tackle. Maybe this off season we can trade Monroe an roll with our line with Wagner back. I just wish Pees would quit with the playing 10 yards off that is just stupid. Go any one but the Pats.
