They'll run it now......

Flacco's new contract is going to be huge. Time to go shopping for some Raven FAs that they won't be able to afford!

He came up big today.

 

[bengaldoug]

All this because Ray Lewis is retiring?

 

[flamingrey]

I wonder if some people are going to call Brady a "choker" for losing to the Ravens. Manning is, I figure Brady is too?

 

[Tubbs1518]

Brady has 3 SB's, 5 trips to the SB, isn't going 1 and done 8 times, 5 at home. Brady also won a game this post season. Big difference between him and Brady.

 

[bengaldoug]

Wish I would have had the balls to bet the Ravens money line at +325

 

[bengaldoug]

We have an inbred Super Bowl!

I'm betting on Harbaugh......

 

[bengaldoug]

San Fran -4.5 and total is 49

 

[Tubbs1518]

San Fran has a better offense and defense. I don't see this game being close.

So did Brady choke today like Manning did last week?

He didn't have a good game no. Was he the only reason for the loss? No, did he add to the reasons to loss? Yes. However this isn't the norm for him. It is for Manning.

You are right, on paper. But if they played them on paper the Ravens would have lost at Denver.......

Manning is a choker, well proven, paper can't prove that. Denver also has a far worse coach.

The bolded part is exactly what some of us said about Manning and you'd have no part of it. This is funny. I actually agree with the above, but I don't think you really do.

It has the been the norm for what the last 8, 9 years?

 

[Tubbs1518]

Because with Manning its a pattern. With Brady it isn't. 8 one and dones. 5 at home. Brady has taken his team to SB's and AFCCG's regularly.

 

[DanBengalfan]

good grief. please San Fran, I'm sick of people talking about how "Godly" Ray Lewis is...

If Ray Lewis is godly then maybe I need to start stabbing people.

 

[cincygrad]

I thought Brady played terrible. And his performance since 17-0 in 2007 definitely has me re-thinking his legacy.

And he has choked regularly for 8-9 years.

 

[Tubbs1518]

And he has choked regularly for 8-9 years.

At least he can win his first game. Is his legacy as good as it used to be? Not at all, is it better than Mannings? Absolutely.
