[News] Poll: Are Any Ravens Fans Rooting For Patriots?

[BR News]

The Patriots are one of the Ravens' biggest rivals, so it's an obvious choice on the surface. But how many Ravens fans want to see Joe Flacco keep postseason bragging rights over Atlanta's Matt Ryan?

I'm just watching to see the riots. Both cities will burn but for two different reasons.

They'll go Gaga over it.

I've given up on hating the Pats. Count me in the group that doesn't want Ryan to get a SB ring for Flacco's sake. Having said that, I think Pat's defense wins this game.

That's a sad excuse to defend Flacco's game. I'm rooting for Ryan and the Falcons. Atlanta lost the only SB they played in and have been around for 51 years. Falcons fans have had it rough.

The only positive I see for the patriots winning is the possibility of Tom Brady retiring afterwards... If he loses I feel as though that would just give him extra motivation.

Havent even decided if Im watching it yet. The match up is not interesting, Im tired of Cheaters having a easy ride through cupcakeville afc least. Falcons are a fluke franchise with no brand recognition or history. It would a been a lot more interesting a PackervPats matchup, BradyvRodgers, or really anything else has great story line and interest then this game. Cowboys,Hawks, Etc.

I honestly just cant wait for it to be over, onto the draft, orioles, caps, terps, wiz, etc.

I agree. Ravens would have given the Patriots a better game than the Squeelers but probably still lost. I think the Falcons would have wiped the floor with them in the SB. Why I'm not too hell bent on the Ravens missing the playoffs. They have a nice draft to look forward to. Squeelers and Patsies will still be over-rated next season. Ravens are a couple of pieces away from meaning business.

[concretejimmy]

I'm actually rooting for the Falcons to blow the Patriots out of the water and if Ryan has an 11 TD and 0 INT. post-season, then good for him. I still think most people and not Belicheck knows to not take this Falcons team that's peaking at just the right time on both sides of the ball too lightly. They're as well coached and just as talented or more than the Patsies. Falcons have speed at the right positions and Ryan is playing fantastic. P.S. I wouldn't have minded the Ravens drafting Deion Jones just like Landon Collins. Dude can run with the faster WR's. I was right AGAIN!

[concretejimmy]

Falcons deferred and get the ball in the 2nd half. 3rd and one and a Falcons stop. This playoffs has been garbage. Nothing would be more fitting than another Seahawks-Broncos SB with Brady as the recipient of a beating.

I want both QBs to preform badly and the Patriots defense to save Brady's bacon. Hopefully the score will be 3-6 Patriots.

I'm a Salisbury University graduate who tutored (briefly) Dan Quinn, another SU alum (along with his wife who shares my first name, Stacey), so, given that (plus the fact that I am a Ravens fan who has no love for the Patriots, pretty boy Brady and Belichick the cheater), of course I'm rooting for the Falcons! Go get'em, DQ!

Good to see Courtney Upshaw in there playing. Ravens traded out of the first round in 2012 and picked Courtney Upshaw as their first pick in 2012 in second round.. Then they let him go to Atlanta? "On March 25, 2016, Upshaw signed a one-year contract with Atlanta Falcons worth $1.25 million" ...Strange.

I know I know, what can I say but I can't root for Matt Ryan. I don't like the Patriots but for some reason I just don't want Matt Ryan to win this game.

I'd love to see Matt Ryan win this game.

I'm all for it if it means the P*triots lose.

Atlanta will burn again if they win and this time it will not be by Gen. Sherman.

Are you a fan of Ryan or just hoping for a Patriots lose.

Glad Ravens did not play the Falcons in SB but take notes Ravens this will be the team to beat in SB in coming years.

[Crusader]

Ravens needs to get to next year's Superbowl #52. That would be a great memorabilia. Also they should play against Atlanta to solve who is elite Joe or Ryan.

[Purple Dawg 96]

ATL is 216 South! Go Falcons

[concretejimmy]

Brady pick 6. THIS IS BEAUTIFUL! Falcons 21-0. I called it . REMEMBER IT!

[concretejimmy]

Ryan looks ticked off the Falcons are up 21-0. THIS IS PERFECT!!!!!!!!

A little bit of both!  And you?

[Militant X 1]

Falcons 21 Patriots 0

GO FALCONS!!

[Militant X 1]

Brady overthrowing.  Lol!!

[JamesA119]

Why should we care about what Flacco did 4 yrs ago?


If Matt Ryan wins the Super Bowl that should inspire Flacco to play batter. That's what a Ravens fan would rather have than protecting a stat. Can we try and live in the present?

I am not a fan of Ryan or Brady so I was real disappointed for this Super Bowl. My stepson is a huge Tom Brady fan and me and my stepson are super tight, so I guess I have a soft spot for wanting him to be happy. I was really rooting for the Chiefs when we did not make it.

[bioLarzen]

And just to think that we could probably have Kyle Shanahan as our OC two seasons ago - but we went with Trestman...

[Purple Dawg 96]

I'm watching Ryan open up the running game with the pass! Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo why can't someone I know do this?! It has to be vice versa in his book!
