Obviously, you did enough to throw in your two cents.

Why is Sharpe so butt-hurt about it?

Bill appeared sincere at mid-field. He gives credit to the opposing teams all the time. Class and sportsmanship is between the competitors, and he shows it.

The media is not one of the competitors, and I'm unsure why they feel entitled to demand interviews before players or coaches get off the field, before they have time to address their team at the end of their season, or what-have-you.

It's clear Belichick and the media are antagonistic, so in my opinion, their crappy relationship is better left uncommented on by the media itself, lest we invoke the "let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

spoken like someone who remembers the days of Rodney and Brewski. You are right.

Sadly no excuses this time boys... Lost to what proved to be a better team.

Terrell Suggs? LMAO. That guy should be the LAST one to start talking trash about ANY one or team.

I almost PUKED when I saw this guy without a helmet and mouthguard for the first time:

The other half of the problem is our DL could not pressure Flacco much during the 2nd half. Given that time, our secondary is exposed.

A fair point. Flacco played huge and the lack of pass rush didn't make it any harder. But the Patriots haven't been world beaters on the pass rush in quite a while - but still are usually successful. The Patriots' overall plan for victory relies heavily on a potent offense to keep the balance of the game in their favor. When the Patriots couldn't respond to the Ravens passing/TDs (when they couldn't put more points up in the first half), it put them into an area they don't encounter often or likely excel at.

When Talib went down that was critical. At that point that pats had to be almost perfect and they were not. The defense was hanging on by a thread and the offense was not able to help them at all.

Watching the post game show on comcast. Some twitter poster made a great point. Their finesse offense is great in the regular season until they have to face a hard nosed defense in the playoffs.

Ravens 4/4 TDs red zone trips
Pats 1/4 TDs red zone trips

^------- Ball game

13 first half points after dominating field position and TOP is not going to cut it and it didn't

Can someone explain the Ridley "fumble"?

Welker drop total momentum killer.

Well if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black, I don't know what is.

Funny thing is, no one should care what Antonio Cromartie, Bart Scott, Brendon Ayanbandejo, Richard Sherman or Terrell Suggs says, but I can almost guarantee there will be a thread about it here with probably 10+ pages of comments.
