Man this has actually been a pretty awesome game of tit for tat. If all 4 games are gonna be this good, what a weekend were in store for! And yah smith has TORCHED bailey. 2 catches 91 yards 2 Tds...

Ravens vs Broncos AND the Refs!

Meh, calls have gone both ways. Home team always gets more calls and it's always been that way. That why I'm rooting for Baltimore so IF the Pats win tomorrow next weeks game is at the razor!

One call, a called fumble was ruled a fumble and not a forward pass.

Otherwise, have you ever seen more "hands to the face called" in an entire week of football?

Haha piston I've been growing my nails out for 2 weeks! When my team plays in any format such as real life, fantasy, or pick em I end up biting them a ton. This texans pats game is gonna hurt I have a not so great feeling.

I get way too emotionally evolved with my sports teams, in particular my Denver Broncos.

I live and die with wins and loses. I get very depressed when they lose to the point people know not to talk to me for a while.

When my New Jersey Devils lost in the Stanley Cup I was depressed for days and missed work.

My Sacramento Kings are now moving to Seattle..... this is what it must feel like to be a fan of the Sonics, Browns, Colts...

Did the Kings settle on that deal? I heard that the current owners wanted to sell the team, but still be able to make important decisions ala where the team stays.

I know Norfolk/Virginia Beach was begging for the Kings to come here.

Holy crap! What a game!!!!


Edit:and no byte I don't think I've seen any more hands to the face than today lol.

OMGoodness. This game is AWESOME!

Please lord DOUBLE OT!!!!

Kaw!!! Kaw!!!

Ravens war cry!!!

Ridiculously good game (bal/den). We will be lucky if there are more games like this one the rest of the way.

Epic.

Peyton can't be too disappointed, he'll still make it to the Super Bowl. In a commercial.

The Ray Lewis swan song continues.

I do have to point out you picked the Ravens as a underdog to win in our pick'ems.

11 in a row is amazing!

I picked the Ravens to win because I wanted the Broncos to win. It's a superstitious thing.

Thought if I picked the broncos to win they would lose. I was wrong.

Need to find a new superstition.


11 in a row means jack without the Lombardi.

Hope JJ Watt smacks brady so hard tomorrow he craps his pants.

Going copy and paste what I noted in DCM... too tired to think straight right now...

As a Broncos fan I'm gutted, but still proud of the team for the season.

My only issue with the game at all was coaching calls for the plays on the last two drives of the fourth quarter. I've been following NFL long enough to know play to win or go home... I had no idea what they where thinking there. Give the ball back to a team who have already made two touchdown drives in around a minute and change on the clock in the game.

And then to chicken out on a play for a field goal, but kneeling with 30 secs on the clock. I said to Aura if we lose.. that's why before OT even began.

Hell when the Ravens won the toss, I expected us to lose right there, but we managed to turn them over, and damn Peyton folds under pressure.

Damn.

Ah well, always next year.

I stopped watching to go out drinking but I saw Tucker's winning FG

And now to watch the 2nd half of this NFC affair

And facebook has lit up with images of Tebow saying;

Don't you wish I was still at Denver

not that he'll have a job next season

First off I'm not a big believer in Peyton's "clutchness". But I'd hardly call what he did folding under pressure. Something had to give at some point. And also the play calling on both sides in the fourth quarter and OT was horrendous. The ravens Lets run Ray Rice on firs and second down every set of downs then throw on third was so predictable even Dan FREAKING IDIOT dierdorff knew what they were doing.

And an AFCC rematch between New England and Baltimore next week will be sweet. The ravens just played 80 minutes of football in a mile of altitude, at 6-8 degrees weather. They will be drained and ripe for allowing Brady his fourth Lombardi and a trip to his 6th in 11 years. Provided the texans lose like I'm hoping.

An easy victory for Fortyniners against GB Packers today! but a pair of commentators said that 49ers fans regularly boo at their own team when being 'home'

right?

My dad is a big fan of 49ers. and would like to see them go to the Superbowl. (and win!)

Well atlanta struggled past the seahawks, that attempt on 4th down really hurt them

And what a start for the Texans

Patriots just got reamed on that fumble call.. This game has been awesome as a pats fan though!!!

Texans are just not getting it done today. Pats are going to walk away with this one at this point.

Suck.

Yah 41-28 patriots! Great game. I'm glad the texans kept fighting. How can you cover all the weapons on the pats offense? This was crazy seeing so many people involved on offense. Sorry kronk in the words of George saint'pierre this loss will make them stronger and will be the a good learning experience.

Edit:the ravens scare the crap out of me. And I'm sort of glad they won the first game.

The Ravens should scare you. They have a fething murderer on their team named Ray Lewis...

Hahaha. Allegedly, I'm actually more afraid of Bernard pollard against the pats than Lewis. Pollard has hurt welker, Brady, and Gronk in the past 4 years.

I would allegedly like to see the suit he was wearing that night.

Yah I would like to see the spygate tapes!

Hey look at that.. I finally won a week....

LOL!!! I went 0-4 this week! At least, as far as picking NFL team wins go....

Best of luck to you guys that still have teams left. I'll lean towards the Pats... Don't tell my HR manager though (devout Patriots worshiper...)
