tinman Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 I stand by my comments. The Falcons were not underdogs and if Ryan isn't a turnover machine, they are playing in New Oreleans. if the WR hadn't fallen down WIDE OPEN they score and win.. The no catch that was called a catch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamalisms Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 The fumble at the 1 was forced. Neither one of Ryan's turnovers were. Try again. Discount this but not that, those things but not others...Atlanta wins 17-0! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamalisms Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Maybe you need to deal with reality? I picked the Falcons, but they were outplayed... largely because of their own failings. They shouldn't have let the Niners back in the game, but they did and you can say they should have won if Ryan didn't choke or you can say they should have lost by 14 if the Niners scored where they had already earned scores. Either way, they lost and we both should have known better after last week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denali Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 I think the Niners and the Ravens will win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, they lost and we both should have known better after last week. The 49ers definitely deserved to win. That being said, Ryan had two critical turnovers that were largely unforced. One of them while they were in FG range. Turnovers are almost always the key to playoff games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were underdogs as set by Vegas anyways, and I think San Fran got 6 1/2 points if I'm not mistaken. I thought San Fran would win, but giving the home team that many points was cray. You'd have to be insane not to pick Atlanta to cover the spread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamalisms Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Why in the hell were the Pats a 10 point fave? Because essentially nobody respected Baltimore's chances even a little. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiscotitansfan Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 I stand by my comments. The Falcons were not underdogs and if Ryan isn't a turnover machine, they are playing in New Oreleans. But he is, and they aren't. plain and simple. If we had a HOF QB we'd be playing in the playoffs. There is a reason why the Falcons kept getting shit on by the media. They are nowhere near as good as #1 seed had them.

Maybe it was just me but I think that the intended receiver tripped on the INT and that it would have been an easy completion had he not tripped. This goes to show you about how perfect a QB has to be. Ryan ran, what, 60-70 plays, most of which he was good in, and he has 1 bad play and all of the sudden he's a bum, a choke artist and can't win the big one.

Guest Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Belichick....Brady. The bookies took a bath. I can't believe that line. All of the other games between Pats and Ravens were close. Every game this playoffs had been a barn burner. To believe that B-more was going to simply rollover against New England, especially after last year?

He's made critical mistakes in every playoff game he's been in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenIsLegend Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Anyone else notic the Falcons running long-developing plays? Jesus Christ. Ryan was taking 5 and 7-step dropbacks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
