Another Ravens fan! Was out at the pub proudly wearing my Ray Lewis jersey!

Manning choking in cold wather? NO WAY!

The int was Manning's fault, but there is no way the game should have made it to OT. The D let them down in a BIG way.

And while the Broncos did get the short stick in reffing, they still should have won. A stupendously horrid play by a safety was the difference.

Only saw bits of the SF game, but hard to believe that Seattle beat down the 49'ers the way they did 3 weeks ago.

Hoping for round 3 next week vs Seattle, but we'll see.

I would like to think that the 49ers were simply not wanting to reveal too much of the playbook in that last 'Hawks game, but since the bye was on the line I doubt that was the case.

Every game gets harder the rest of the way.

Explains why the Giants beat them on a day where Bradshaw went for over 200, and the Vikings too.

I think they would throttle Atlanta on the road. At home against Seattle I would expect a close game.

In your opinion, has anyone ever won a game they should have? It's always the refs or the fact that "team a beat themselves because team b is garbage". Absolutely ridiculous.

Getting so excited about tomorrow morning's Seahawks/Falcons game.

I'm not going to lie, I'm a little worried about the Seahawks taking this one. They've got momentum and confidence on their side.

I still have faith the Falcons can pull it off though. Tony Gonzalez is going to have a HUGE game.

Sure 49ers just won a game "they should have."

It's not like I am the only one talking about how bad the officials were it is being talked about by everyone.

But keep making stuff up if it makes you feel better.

If i ever hear the mediots speak of Manning being better than Brady let alone GOAT can we please just look at the stats listed above.

The guy is the ultimate playoff choke artist and you just cannot be the GOAT if you dont win in the playoffs consistently.

It drives me beyond crazy that statistically Brady had a far better season against much harder competition leading his offense to the 3rd best offensive production in league history and he doesn't even get mentioned for MVP.

I love manning the person and the player but there is no way in HELL you can tell me he is the better qb when comparing himself and Brady.

Hopefully Brady can go out and get #4 and this non-argument can just die. Highly unlikely we all know next year the media will be hanging off Peytons sack regardless of hard statistics and results.

Manning may have won 10 titles in the 2000's if he had the Pats defense and cheating.

Hopefully the Texans can end the garbage run of the Ravens next week.

When Champ Bailey got home, his little son ran right up to him, which comforted him. But he kept on running right past him as he screamed : "Look Daddy, I'm Torrey Smith!"

Nine steamboat, ten steamboat...all the time in the world. Good coverage downfield but no one in the middle. Looked like San Fran vs GB

A couple of very nice catches by Falcons TE's there. I was wondering what ever happened to Chase Coffman. Legacy.

That was ridiculous.

The story so far appears to be that Sherman and Browner are fine taking care of Jones and White but the rest of the Seattle D is not up to stopping the Falcons' offense.
