Great goal line stand! Game is far from over, though. Will Baltimore run it three times?

[MD Expat in PA]

The Ravens’ defense holds the line.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

One TO left. Nevermind...

[Lexinom]

Are the 49ers finally, finally, finally, FINALLY going to taste defeat in the SuperBowl? Fingers crossed!!!!

lol.

crap. Raven’s ball.

[relee]

Flacco for MVP or Jones?

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Why aren’t the Ravens taking a knee three times? Why risk a fumble?

[Revolting cat!]

[Political Junkie Too]

Hard to throw a penalty in that situation? Is that what he said?

If they're willing to call it in the first play of the game, they should be willing to call it in the last play of the game.

Otherwise, if the rules change based on how your outcome is shaping up, why bother playing?

Yep, hard to call contact w/in 5 yards of the goal when the line of scrimmage was 2 yards from the goal.

[Betis70]

That was worse than the *called* pass interference on the 49er defense which kept the Ravens drive alive earlier in the 4th qtr.

Gotta say, Niners have a reason to whine about it.

[Political Junkie Too]

Announcer said the ref is human, and it's hard to call a penalty at this point in the game?

I guess it's not too hard for a ref whose ratings were changed just to get him into the Super Bowl?

[Pharmboy]

Take the safety here!!

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Brilliant play on the safety.

[Political Junkie Too]

It looked like a lot of holding on the Ravens front line.

-PJ

[bigheadfred]

And more blatant holding NOT called.

[Pharmboy]

How may Lombardis does Romo have?

[Girlene]

Ravens take a safety. Clock down to 4 seconds.
