Not to pat myself on the back (screw it, when did I ever miss a chance to pat myself on the back?), but I said the Ravens were not all that impressive and their four game winning streak was overrated. I thought it was a game that Pats could lose, but I thought the Pats were the better team.
I think people look at the Ravens and see a team that struggled during the regular season last year and turned it on during the playoffs to win the Super Bowl. And then after a four game win streak where the Ravens were never all that impressive, everyone dubbed the Super Bowl Ravens are back.
But if you watched their games, they were struggling to pull out wins like the Pats have been. And their offense is absolutely putrid.
I admit I came into the week thinking the Pats would win decisively and ended up thinking the Pats would squeak by again, but I never thought this was a game the Pats couldn't win. I thought it was a game that the Pats would most likely win.
