Houston Texans (#3) at Baltimore Ravens (#2)

Texans Coverage: Battle Red Blog
Ravens Coverage: Baltimore Beatdown
The outcome of today's final AFC Divisional Playoff game will have a direct impact on the New England Patriots: the Patriots will play the winner in next weekend's AFC Championship game.
The Baltimore Ravens are the clear favorites in this match-up, and most prognosticators are picking them to win this game handily. However, I wouldn't be so quick to overlook the Texans. Sure, Houston lost the earlier match-up to the Ravens 29-14, but that was a long time ago and both teams are very different. Against the Bengals last week, the Texans proved to be dominant up front, and I think their game with the Ravens today will be very physical. It's hard to give either the Texans or Ravens the edge in terms of their rushing attack, and while Joe Flacco represents an upgrade to TJ Yates, but Yates also has Andre Johnson to throw to.
Overall, I'm predicting a game that is going to be a lot closer than people think. While I'm tempted to go with the underdog Texans, I think experience gives the Ravens the slight advantage in a game that could go either way. Greg's Prediction: Ravens 20 Texans 19

I know this is for the late game
but somehow the experts (or at least an unhelthy amount of them) seem to have the Giants favored all of a sudden.
How did that happen?
got that NE-NYG 07 feel
close battle late in regular season may play in favor to the loser

would rather face Texans, I think
would rather beat the Ravens
"I don't know. I'm making this up as I go."
I like the Texans more
part of it is betting related – part is I just don’t like the Ravens much and they are a bad matchup
However, both teams are built about the same.
I wish for a hard fought game where they knock eachother out.
I want to see something new…. Texans and Patriots AFC matchup.

You can take Gronk down eventually
But you can’t cover him, since tackling is only allowed once the ball gets there.

I stole this from some guy at KSK; seemed like a good place to share it:
From the Book of Belichick:
45Now from the eighth hour darkness fell upon all the land until the eleventh hour. 46About the eleventh hour Tebow cried out with a loud voice, saying, "ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?" that is, "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?" 47And some of those who were standing there, when they heard it, began saying, "This man is not a real football player." 48Immediately one of them ran, and taking a bottle, he filled it with Gatorade, and gave Him a drink. 49But the rest of them said, "Let us see whether Jesus will come to save Him." 50And Tebow cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up another sack. 51And behold, Von Miller was torn in two from top to bottom; and the coach shook and the defense was split.
"Every time I call it a game, you call it a business. Every time I call it a business, you call it a game."

Well, considering Tebow put up 29 on the "#1 defense"
I don’t think the “top defenses” are all that this year
guys, i started discussing this w/ all present friends...
why wasn’t ed reed’s pick considered a safety?
can't happen during change of possesion

He caught it before he went in the end zone and then back pedaled in the end zone once he had
possession. IDK

I hope Ed Reed is ok so they make no excuses when they get Bradied
and that’s like them wishing Hernandez is out with a concussion

And i love how the media will be harping like the Pats don't actually own the Ravens
over the last couple years. More fuel for us.

It's not
a worst-case scenario if Ed Reed is out for us
but he’s a good guy and I never want players to get injured (if it’s not a Jet)
i respect the ravens as a defense
but they are not going to stop the offense enough

What an ugly game.
The Ravens were lucky. 85% of their points came off of turnovers that were absolute gifts. 0 penalties. 0 turnovers.
It is what it is
Alright ladies and gents its been real and fun, now have to work.
Go Pats!

Sweet, now people won't be like "The PAts took the easiest possible pass to get to the Super Bowl.
Pedey: Dear Playstation, So MLB the Show '09 says I can't hit the high and inside, huh? That's ridiculous, ask Ramon.
Ramon: Yeah, he can hit it. In fact, if I were to die today and went to some weird...(grabs script) some weird limbo afterlife, where I can gaze at one thing for eternity. Dustin's swing, or my daggers? (DAUGHTERS!) daughter's first steps, I would choose that swing.

I dunno
Based on today’s game, looks like we’re gonna open up a can o’ whup ass on Bmore. But then again, our D is nowhere near the Texans D
But they are opportunistic.
They will create turnover opportunities. And Flacco will, given enough time, turn into the Flacco we hope he is.
If the Pats win the turnover battle, much of the rest will take care of itself.
Fenway: "An alternate and better universe, disguised as a ballpark." --Thomas Boswell
I predict Ray Rice will have about 83 rushing yards and 1td against us next us.
But that is as far as their rushing will go. Ricky may add about 32 yards.
Depth is great. Right up until you need it!!
And do not let Smith get behind McC! Look out for the TE's on 3rd down as well.
Depth is great. Right up until you need it!!
Is it just me
Or does it feel like the whole world roots against NE. I’m watching the post game show and everyone is hinting at NE being unable to Bmore. Boomer said, The win over the Broncos was a scrimmage
More like the villains
