The Ravens are 9.5 point underdogs! I just don't see that either. I see close game that could go either way. No way they get blown out in Pile High.

Denver will win by 10+

Also wouldn't be surprised if Denver won. But I can't sit here and say this game is an absolute lock for Denver.

I sure as hell wouldn't bet on this game, that's for sure.

Absolutely. Then factor in they are facing an extremely well coached, veteran team, that was a dropped pass away from beating New England in their house to go to the Super Bowl, and you have yourself an upset stew goin.

Should be a good game and a close score. Denver has a great defense, many are just focusing on the Ravens defense.

Flacco on the road against that defense... it will not be easy by any means.

My revised prediction...

Broncos 27
Ravens 20

Enjoy

Peyton Manning on one side against a defense that doesn't really bring pressure, and Joe Flacco on the other side, against two good pass rushers?

Yeah, I'm not seeing an upset in the works.

This is a passing league.

Ray Rice isn't going to lead the Ravens to a SB.

Joe Flacco has been mediocre in the playoffs, with a couple of good games mixed in.

I could see Peyton choking against a team with a good pass rushing defense.

The Ravens don't match up in any way to the Broncos. The Broncos could win this game with Matt Schaub at QB. Their defense represents WAY too much of a challenge for the Ravens.

I'd pick the Broncos with any competent QB to win this game, let alone Peyton Manning.

This is a laugher, I promise.

Alot of my posts today are trolling, but I do think you underestimate the Ravens though.

Hootie 01-12-2013 12:44 PM

I think the Ravens are one of the worst playoff teams I've ever seen (other than the Colts this year)

If I had the choice between Flacco, Cassel or running the wildcat all game I'd seriously consider wildcat.

defense is aging, none of their pass rushers scare me, they have JIM CALDWELL at offensive coordinator...

I have big money riding on Denver to get to the Super Bowl and today, I'm not nervous one bit (next week is a different story).

I've never been more sure of anything. This game is going to be one of those 'wow I never at any moment feared Denver was going to lose this game' kind of games.

NOW, FULL DISCLAIMER

a few years ago when the Jets beat the Patriots I felt the same way (in the playoffs) and it lost me a lot of $$$

BUT STILL

-Hootie, always the opinionated

Pasta Little Brioni 01-12-2013 12:46 PM

That's my point. It's the NFL and that's what makes it great. Special Teams TD, fluke fumble, tipped pass....

How much money do you have on the line?

Hootie 01-12-2013 12:46 PM

well I always talk about bounces and the Ravens are going to need at least 3

Hootie 01-12-2013 12:47 PM

this is, IMO, the most talented team Peyton has ever had and by leaps and bounds

Pasta Little Brioni 01-12-2013 12:48 PM

Dude, they would have had a undefeated regular season one year if they didn't rest guys.

Hootie 01-12-2013 12:54 PM

they won 11 in a row by 7+ this year after they stopped with the huddle bullshit McCoy tried to throw on Peyton

and Denver's defense is AWESOME

Hootie 01-12-2013 12:56 PM

I already got the "wait until Baltimore" with Denver the first time...a game in which they won as easily as they beat us in week 17
