New England Patriots (#1) vs. Baltimore Ravens (#2)

Ravens Coverage: Baltimore Beatdown

The Patriots have a 3-0 lead after one quarter, but the Ravens are deep in Patriots territory threatening to score. The Patriots have had opportunities on offense, but quarterback Tom Brady has struggled to hit his receivers. This one certainly looks like it's going to be a grinder.

You guys are idiotS

If you want to try a drive at the end of the half. Best case scenario we get a field goal, most likely scenario we punt e ball away with 15 seconds left, worst case scenario we turn the ball over Balt gets a FG and game changing momentum going into halftime.

Maybe it's more like Bill didn't want his defense back on if Offense failed to score

Damn, Gronk DID have his foot down on that catch.

Not surprised they missed it, but damn. What a job by Gronk to pull it off.

When he caught it, he had is left foot down

Then he stepped down with the right foot inbounds. It really just depends when they said he had possession.

To be fair

Baltimore blew a TD by missing a wide open Torrey Smith at the end of the half.

by Crizzle12 on Jan 22, 2012 4:43 PM EST up reply actions  

yeah, we dodged a bullet there

but remember, it was the combo pressure fro Nink and Wilfork that threw off his throw.

by furiousd on Jan 22, 2012 4:45 PM EST up reply actions  

And we get a 3 point headstart?

Eh…fair enough : )

Go Pats. Celtics. Red Sox. Bruins.
