The Ravens D played a great game,and it was nice to see Flacco and Boldin click a bit.Hated to see Rice cough the ball up twice.He doesn't fumble much in the regular season,but has this maddening tendency of doing it in the playoffs. |
As much as it pains me to give congrats to the Ravens, congrats. The D played with renewed intensity. I am quite happy that I will not have see that terrible Ray dance anymore after this year... Yuck, Seachickens better get it in gear before it gets out of hand.

Well, valiant effort from the Colts but they were never the better team. Flacco finally got something going. He is painful to watch generally, and is kinda lucky that one floater Boldin nabbed between defenders but it was enough. Congrats to the Ravens.
IDK what you want man. You'll go back to a Ravens game from 1998 and pick out a play in the 3rd quarter 5:40 left when Ray Lewis got a gift of a pick that was a joke blah blah blah blah but god forbid the same is done to your stillers? FU you say? I wonder if you have a taste of what Jody takes from you constantly Besides, Stillers won that SB and deserved to but fact is fact, never crossed the plane bro. Farthest it gets, he then sticks it in after he's on the ground. SUCK IT

Wow, that impossibly blurry image really changes everything. Seriously dude, you can barely make out players in that image. I wish that I could find the post Super Bowl XL Inside the NFL in which they went through ever cried about call from that game. Besides, it's always taken indisputable evidence to overturn the original call and, even with a picture that doesn't look like it's from Atari, the point of the ball in undeterminable.

RGIII is something else... Glad he's with a coach like Shanahan, think if anyone can maximize his potential it will be Mike..

RGIII isn't going to last more than a few years in this game. Not from lack of talent, from his body getting destroyed. His leg just collapsed under him as he went to pick up the ball... not even any contact.

Teams have keyed on Peterson all year because he us all the Vikings got. He's responded by putting up one of the most amazing season a running back has ever had. If I held Green Bay's D in any regard I might agree that them keying on him could mean something.
The Pack are still playing for somethin and I like Rogers more than Ponder(like by a factor or 50,000 times...)
The Pack will be throwing TDs left & right so the Viikings will have to play catch up. Too much pressure on Ponder.
Look for a bad game from him, in that case the Viikings run game is rendered moot. Plus the Pack dee will certainly be prepared for Peterson. Just how I see it. Now, if the Viikings man up, including Ponder and they punk the Pack, then major props for them for forcing their way into the playoffs. Ponder is an awful QB, can't argue that, but I don't think it'll matter that much. I give the Vikings D a good bit more credit than the GB D and don't foresee Rogers going crazy on them. I just feel that while the Packers have stumbled through the season the Vikings have been building to this roll they are on. I kinda see this playing out like the Giants-Packers playoff game from last season.
[
Just like I said. AP will dominate and stop about 5 yards short of the record and Minn. will go to the playoffs!
Congrats to you for picking the week 17 Viikings-Pack game correctly...
The first round picks:
Texans Ravens
Packers Redskins
I see you picked Seattle, fair enough. Just don't forget they won two games by hail Mary's & replacement ref blown calls. They are a 9-7 team. Yes, RGII played poorly vs Pitt, but Wash has Garcon back and they are 9-1 with Garcon.

The city of Washington D.C. can take a break for the rest of the year now. Russel Wilson rookie of the year, both other contenders could not produce in the playoffs.

After all the talk all year long about Luck and RGIII, who is the only surviving rookie QB? Russell Wilson, Rookie of the Year.

^ Well deserved, but he does have a good supporting cast also. Since my Steelers are out, I sort of am pulling for the Seahawks. Oh, love the jamming cat...

Oh MoM...for someone who always "jokes" you sure take things seriously. Besides, we've all seen the video, we know how far Ben got....and it wasn't in the end zone! great game from the hawks, was worried but they really turned things around. Complete, balanced team and Wilson may be more stable than Kaepernick, and just as explosive. Talent wise, Seattle may be the best in the NFC. Yeah even if RG3 develops into a pocket passer he's just so small. Vick has gotten hurt the last 2 years, from in the pocket, so that can't even be a "safe" place for a smaller dude. He's tough though, the kid has heart and the option is damn tough to play. I really would like him to not be around in the NFC east

Bring on the Seahawks. Though as good as the Falcons are this year, I will be surprised if they make it past the first game of the playoffs. They're just not.... CRAZY MAD enough to win in the postseason, I dunno. I hope they prove me wrong.

Matt Ryan has to get over this post-season slump he always seems to get into (or I suppose the whole team has to). I still think Atlanta will beat Seattle, but after what I saw today, it's not going to be an easy feat. The poise and maturity of such a young team like the Seahawks, they weren't rattled a bit after going down 14-0 early on. Made some slight adjustments, and the Redskins didn't have a chance, bad knee or not on RGIII.

Frankly, RGIII was neither the best, nor most important, rookie on his own team. Alfred Morris should be getting a lot more credit than he is for the Redskins' season. I'd actually go Wilson, Morris, Luck, RGIII. That said, I completely ignored the defensive side. If there was a big impact defensive rookie, this year, then I missed hi.

That's right... Morris was 2nd only to Peterson in rushing yards gained this season. He deserves a lot of credit.

I think the Rookie of the Year should go to Luck if we're giving it to one of the top 3 rookie QBs. RGIII has an offense designed around him similar to what he played in college and his unique skill set. Wilson plays on the most complete team of the 3. Statistically, I'll have to try and find it and pull it up again, but the only reason the Colts are in the playoffs was because of Luck. Without him, they are not a playoff team.

Well the Colts are not a playoff team. Luck has a QB rating of 76.5, Wilson rating 100.0. Luck 18 interceptions, Wilson 10.Luck 10 fumbles, Wilson 6. Luck 23 TD passes, Wilson 26. The biggest factor is wilson is still playing his rookie season. Luck and Griffin are on vacation.

I disagree with the last point since playoffs don't matter when handing out a regular season award but otherwise manofmystery likes this post. RGIII and Luck were the big names this year and Luck should be in the discussion but if justice is served it'll come down to Wilson and Morris (who actually led the skins to the playoffs).
