Of course the outcome wasn’t “necessary” thanks to the idiot Ravens taking idiot penalties (and deserved too). Had the call been reversed the Pats would have had the ball at the 2 with 44 seconds and a TO, the Ravens weren’t going to stop them.
Face reality, the Ravens screwed the pooch, they couldn’t finish the deal then they had a major meltdown on the Pats final possession and gave the game away. If you insist there’s a conspiracy check out Billick’s account because the problems came from that sideline not the zebras.

A simple first down or two in the 4th quarter on the part of the Ravens denies Brady the ball. If Boller doesn’t chuck the ball downfield on 3rd & long the game is over.

Face reality, the officials betting on the game who said "Tom Terrific the Wonderboy and the Team of Angels" would cover the spread lost their shirts. Some obnoxious bunch of punks largely from the "U" played smashmouth football and showed Wonder Coach that with a bit more talent, they could have had the greatest upset in NFL history when they were double digit underdogs. BTW, that guy with the ulcer in your office, bet he was out Tuesday because the Ravens cost him 2 "large" on the over/under in Vegas. Too bad. As for Stillers, they've got no chance. That was the closest the Pats come to losing all year.

PS. The game got the highest cable ratings in cable history. Think all those fans watching were pulling for the Pats? Think again...

, phoney timing of timeout call when play was complete, second stuff on fourth down and supposed illegal motion on NEW ENGLAND I'm glad you are not a referee because you are blind.

The Pittsburgh Steelers may be 9-3 but they've had a very easy schedule and have played mostly awful teams all year. On the road they are 2-3 including losses to the pathetic New York Jets and the mediocre Denver Broncos and Arizona Cardinals. They just barely beat the winless Miami Dolphins at home and only managed a field goal against them.
On the other hand, the New England Patriots have beaten a lot of solid teams including blowing out the 11-1 Dallas Cowboys and beating the 10-2 Indianapolis Colts.
The Pats should easily handle Pittsburgh on Sunday.

You are upholding the honor of the AFC Central. I find myself in the odd position of pulling for you this weekend. Get it done!

The Pats should easily handle Pittsburgh on Sunday.Which is what they said about Baltimore last Monday night. The line was 19 points. Unlike the Ravens, the Steelers have decent receivers and a real quarterback.

The Steelers will make the game close for a while, but given the Steelers' habit of "tanking" games while on the road this season and the fact the Patriots are playing on the "fast track" home field at Gillette Stadium with its FieldTurf surface, I'm not so sure about the Steelers' chances.

You reading my post in braille, because if you actually SAW it in realtime, you wouldn’t post such ignorance.

Surprisingly light, I’d say. I figured there would be suspensions. Didn’t one of these clowns make off like he wanted to get physical with one of the officiating crew?

Mandate selling the team to competent ownership.
(Raven’s sure got their butts kicked, as did the Steelers, yesterday.)
