flacco didnt beat us, the ravens defense did. we never got anything going...and, wouldnt you say our offense is more dynamic this year than it was in 09?? it was moss/welker THATS IT we at least have some semblence of a running game this year.

and once again, it was the Jets defense last year that beat us.

all Im saying is, this year the theme has been the same time and time again...we give up TONS of yards to these crappy QB's BUT when it matters we make a play/stop as they make mistakes.

If brady can play well against any of those defenses, im confident we can win

You're right, the defense was better in each of those years, other than last year.

Yeah...I just want to point out Flacco was 4/10 for less than 40 yards in that game. We didn't lose to Joe Flacco.

Indy's defense was worse in 2006 than almost any defense they had in the last decade.

Any QB the Pats face in the playoffs will be elite

C'mon! Flacco smoked the Pats in that game. He completed 4 of 10 passes for 34 yards, 0 TDs, and 1 INT. The defense couldn't cover anyone in that game.

Whatever QB we play will be elite on joe montana like levels, we'll make sure of it.

It'll be fun, hopefully we can pull of some W's

and what did the patriots do? forced a mistake and won the game. thats all that matters.

if Tom brady doesnt throw that interception the game isnt as close as it ended up being.

the wins arent going to be pretty, but to say that we have NO shot when we may have horrid QB's like Palmer/Flacco throwing at our secondary is rediculous..those guys will make costly mistakes.

as long as the OL can keep brady standing we have enough to win games

They have given up ton of yards to every team they have played, and my answer is why your premise is wrong.
