Harsh.
Yep, threw 2 INTs, and lost a fumble, BUT, threw over 300 yards and ran over 100. Not sure Id put this 1 on him. Was Ravens worst performance of the yr.

Of the INTs, one on him, the other on his TE. Andrews has been safe as houses all yr and been his safety net receiver. His recievers were poor today. Couldn't get open, and dropped passes. Rare for the best offense in the NFL this yr, even if these guys preferred to run it.

The fumble has become status quo for him. Part and parcel of running QBs as they tend to hold it too long.

He was forced to throw 50+ times. This was for lots of reasons. 1, WRs couldn't catch a cold, 2, Titoons D, 3 behind on the scoreboard.

I feel a bit bad for Baltimore. Their fans are dying tonight in that city, probably literally.

What's the record for points scored in a play off game? We've got 82 so far.

Most points is 96 - cardinals beat packers 51-45 in 2009-2010 playoffs.

Today’s game ended with 82 (51-31).

Eagles Pats had 74 (41-33).

- Rodgers for MVP

Super Bowl - Chiefs vs Packers (EDIT: This pick was made 2 days before AB signed with the Pats. I reserve the right to change this pick to Pats vs Packers)

Good time to look back on pre-season predictions...
Hits - finishing order of NFC North, NFC East and AFC East, predicting the Bears to miss the playoffs and the Rams to not win their division. My Super Bowl prediction (Chiefs v Packers) is still on the cards as well.
Misses - Ravens and 49ers, AFC South standings, Falcons to win NFC South, and AFC wild card predictions (Chargers and Browns). I also predicted the Saints to have a disappointing season and miss the playoffs, so I was wrong about their regular season, but I’d argue I was right about the disappointing part.

That Chiefs - Texans game was nuts
At 24-0 i said the game was over, but when Lonnie Johnson went out at 24-7 and Kelce started heating up i flipped immediately and was convinced KC would not only win the game but win it going away.
Totally changed the game. Once Johnson went out, the Texans had no one who could hang with Kelce and it opened the entire game up for KC.

They got outscored from that point onwards 51-7
YIKES

Packers have this game in hand at the half, never count out Russ and Seattle, as we learnt a few years ago, but assuming this holds (and i think Seattle will make a comeback but GB will hold them off) we've got GB @ SF and TEN @ KC

Hurting for a KC v SF SB
Big Red needs to go and get his damn ring. He's earned it 100 times over, one of the best coaches in NFL history. Get it, Andy.

Seattle rallying here, as expected
Packers need to keep this clock moving and keep punching in scores.
They'll need another touchdown at least, 2 more and this game is iced. I dont think Seattle have the time to put up 4 scores.
