dumb ravens

That's a false start. BS call.

Agreed. Away team officiating.

huge first down

 

[Fanfrom1960]

I'm thinkin' I'd really much rather play a team (Balt.) whose #1 receiver is their tight end. And, McNair looks slower. Their D is good, no doubt, but we have Josh McD.

will this be a 99 yard drive ?

 

[The Gr8est]

Okay, am I missing something? I always thought that if you jump accross the line on defense but return to your side before the snap, then there was no penalty, but if the OL moves before the snap it is illegal procedure.

...yet both calls went against the defense. Has the rule changed?

It feels like Indy should be up about 17-3 right now.

"If the Colts don't get another first down, it's an outstanding drive."

What? How does that make any sense?

Ray Ray got jealous of McAllister there.

 

[Seymour93]

Manning gets away with one.

 

[BradyisGod]

Peyton can't go down field!

Not if peyton keeps throwing into double coverage like that. Should have been an INT,.

Only for the Colts o-line.

I think you may be on to something.

Because the D stopped the Ravens from scoring and the Drive started on the 1 and now they moved it to the 30? It takes at least three points away from the opposition and got some of the field position back.

Is Gumble watching the game?

 

[ironwasp]

Only for the Colts o-line.

Refer to the second book of Polian, chapter four, verses 18-22

colts score here and then get the ball to start the 2nd half...the ravens D is going to be tired...

 

[The Gr8est]

I just joined this thread so I don't know if this was already addressed, but did you all notice before the game one of the talking heads mentioned that "We all want to see Peyton Manning win a Superbowl"?

"We" do???

I think we all knew there was a pro-Manning bias, but I was happy to see them finally admit it.

 

[Fanfrom1960]

Is Gumble watching the game?

You probably mean "he throws it away" but the play before he said "look at Ed Reed", playing out at the 50 yard line AS IF WE COULD SEE IT ON TV. Gumble is awful.
