The official Patriots vs Ravens AFCCG thread

[Patriot Missile]

What's with all the doom and gloom here? We're up 3, have the ball, the best QB, the best Coach and 30 minutes left to go. They are going to get this done.

just like crumpler's drop last yr

Ugh don't remind me of that :/

 

[Luke Skywelker]

One comforting point - this has been a 2nd half team during this latter half of the year, which could be a sign of conditioning. In fact, other than that Denver playoff game, leading at the half is actually a little bit of a luxury.

 

[JJDChE]

A defensive turnover would be nice. Our playmakers on D need to make one.

The gronk catch. Whether it was in bounds or not doesn't matter anymore.. Move on! We still have a half to play.

Good point.

This is basically zero-zero right now.

God this drumbeat of nattering know nothings gets tired... one guy complains if the D doesn't get some pressure it'll be a long game... it's been a few minutes since they came out fired up, but no more than that. Ninko, Anderson, and especially Vince have definitely made life uncomfortable for Flacco -- and that's more pressure than we've gotten in God knows how many years.

This is a more balanced team than we've had since before the Great Defensive Purge w/the retirements and the banishments of Seymour & Vrabel...and it's showing.

On the O side of the ball the hallmark of this team should be taking what the defense is giving. Too many mistakes I agree, but that single tenet is responsible for the points we do have... and if Baltimore keeps selling out to the pass I don't want to hear about how Brady didn't pass for 400 yards. Key-riyst.

You guys do realize we're winning the game at halftime, and getting the ball first in the second half, right?

 

[JackBauer]

Good point.

This is basically zero-zero right now.

No, it's 3-0.

 

[Ric_Flair]

Gotta watch the onside kick here too.

 

[PatsFan24]

TD coming up! Stomp on them Ravens

 

[patfanken]

getting a TD now will change the game

 

[kennyb]

I think flacco is less accurate with pressure. They need to rush 4 or 5 and not get beat deep somehow...

 

[Patters]

These are two teams that looked evenly matched in the first half. I think the Pats are better than the Ravens, so hopefully there were some good halftime adjustments.

 

[PatsGirl2011]

So Flacco is outplaying Brady? Um yeah right...

 

[YearbookCurfew]

Now that was close....No more INTs!

 

[PatsFan24]

That play made me nervous

 

[ALP]

why didnt aaron go for that ball? that overthrown? or scared of hit?

 

[Patriots Nation NY]

later ..punt time....

 

[Warren1985]

Brady is off!

 

[brady77]

Ratbirds got Gronk'd.

 

[YearbookCurfew]

WE need to run the ball more.
