Ravens Vs Patriots AFC Championship Game Open Thread

It's time to decide who will meet in the Super Bowl. Either it will be Tom Brady and his no defense Pats or the Baltimore Ravens with the recently maligned Joe Flacco. Of course, they have Terrell Suggs, Ed Reed and Ray Lewis

Talk about the game!

Looking forward to this one

I think the Pats will win, but Flacco will play well enough to silence some of the critics.

This is setting up to be the perfect revenge run for Brady.

The Broncos were the first team to beat Brady in the playoffs, the Ravens gave him his first playoff home loss, Pollard the man who blew up his knee in 08 is now with the Ravens, and if the Giants win he can get revenge for 18-1.

It will be unbearable dealing with Niners Nation if they win today though

If they win one game then lose, they got a win for the NFC West their job is done.

If they make it to the Bowl, the whole fanbase will be even more arrogant thinking that they are back to their former glory.

Why in the world didn't they call a their last timeout before the FG?

the kicker was running to the field with the play clock at 10 seconds and they snapped it at the last second with him not being ready.
