Very well written article with some solid insight. Some really awesome quotes. I really liked Torrey's modesty and Buck's comments about Adam Jones being at the game in Denver. The explanations from Rosburg about the special teams breakdowns make some sense, particularly the punt return, that definitely looked like a situation where the entire coverage unit was running away from the return man.

Agreed, great article. I really enjoy Luke's work.

Mackus / Ricker.... Luke is registered on the board under the BaltimoreLuke name. Sure he wouldn't mind a PM saying you enjoyed his work.

Good stuff here. Win it for Prop Joe.

"Per Pro Football Focus, the Ravens blitzed eight times in last year’s AFC title game … and Brady completed 100 percent of his passes (8 for 8 for 93 yards). When the Ravens did not blitz and still generated pressure, Brady’s completion percentage dropped to 14.3 (1-for-7). And in Baltimore’s Week 3 win over New England this season, Brady hit 12-of-15 passes when the Ravens blitzed."

Very interesting.

Pats Pulpit / SB Nation: Patriots vs. Ravens: Bold Predictions

Pats Pulpit: Who's picking the Pats?
http://www.patspulpi...ravens-patriots

Joel Thorman of SB Nation believes the Patriots will win 33-27. Thorman says he will continue to pick the Patriots until a defense shows they can stop their no-huddle offense.

At ESPN, eight out of 12 experts also picked New England.

Two of three Yahoo! Sports experts sided with the Patriots as well.

CBS Sports has the highest percentage of experts selecting New England, as seven out of eight experts predict a Pats victory. (It is worth nothing that the CBS experts pick against the spread as well as straight up, and when picking against a 9.5 point spread, all eight experts picked the Ravens to cover.)

In total, that is 18 out 24 experts, or 75 percent, predicting a Patriots win.

Dear Ravens,

Please beat the Patriots. I want to advance to the Super Bowl, but also, I really need it. It would just make me feel a whole lot better tomorrow.

Your friend,

Chris.

I mean, it's just got to be our time. Right?? So much heartbreak the last 5 years. So many close playoff games that went the other way. Ray deserves it, the players deserve it, the fans deserve it. Lets go.
