Ravens FTL!!!
« on: December 15, 2008, 07:20:19 AM »

We do not deserve to go to the playoffs. 

We have not beat a decent team this year.  We lost twice to the Steelers when winning late in the 4th quarter.
We lose to the #1 and #2 AFC teams at home nonetheless in the same manner.  Winning the entire game and then allowing  the Titans to drive 78 yds to score the game winning TD and then allowing Pittsburgh to go 91 yds for the win. 

I'm not going to bitch about the game winning TD. We didn't stop them from driving 91 yards to score. There were 3 crucial 3rd and longs converted during that drive. 

I know I should just HTFU!!!  But this one hurt.

Teed, I didn't post much about that game, it was very good and hard fought. I think the Ravens finally have something to be pretty confident about moving forward though (next 2-3 years) .... IF*** the coaches will take off the training wheels for Flacco.  The BAL D  did collapse in the preventD cover4 from about the 40 down to the goalline (thanks!)  but the bigger problem $.02 is that in the 2nd half the BAL O decided to run,run,run and punt trusting the D to win the game .  In the end, the D wasn't quite that good, and part of that looked to be a combination of  1-changing to cover4 scheme, 2-players looking a bit tired from being out there all 2nd half practically.  Both teams actually started getting a bit of running success going late (shockingly) , a true testament to the amount of energy the D's expend all across the field all game long.  Regarding the TD, the 2006 NFL rule book is actually (from a 'legalese' type perspective) poorly written, and can be interpreted to allow passing TDs where the ball NEVER breaks the plane of the goalline, depending how you read it.
