Ravens vs Patriots AFC Championship
Baltimore Ravens @ New England Patriots -7.0
This game is the ultimate Potent Offense vs Dominant Defense. You have in one corner the high powered Patriots offense led by their general Tom Brady and in the other corner you have the big bad Baltimore Ravens defense led by Ed Reed and their fearless leader "Sugar" Ray Lewis. The Patriots are coming off a beat down of Tebow and the Broncos. They did everything right that game and look like world beaters. I know you probably thinking it's the Broncos, but that is the same team that defeated the defending AFC champions. Brady was on point and the defense made plays. On the other side the Baltimore Ravens looked ehhhh ok in their win vs the Texans. The offense looked stagnant and the defense didn't apply any pressure on young T.J Yates(0 Sacks) and benefited from his rookie mistakes. I flat out wasn't impressed with Baltimore performance and with Joe Flacco. This game i feel is not going to be close, maybe in the beginning but i see Brady getting in rhythm and picking apart a shaky secondary that has a banged up Ed Reed that doesn't bold well for the Ravens. Joe Flacco needs to look alot better then what he has shown if the Ravens want to be Super Bowl bound. He needs to make big plays down to the field to his wideouts and the MUST establish the run with Ray Rice and Ricky Williams. T-Sizzle aka Terrell Suggs needs to show up this unlike last week where he went M.I.A, he needs to apply pressure Brady and make him uncomfortable in the pocket because that's the only way you'll beat the Patriots in pressuring Brady in the pocket and make him move. Finally i think this game will be won by the Patriots 34-17, i think the Patriots two all world tight ends Gronkowski and Hernandez will be match up nightmares for Baltimore and the Patriots defense will make enough plays to stop the Ravens attack.
