NFL 12 Divisional week

Ravens-Broncos. Holy Cow this was a good game. I mean a “I can’t look away” good game. It had 5 ties and 6 quarters. I wish both of these teams could be back in the AFC Championship this week. That said I do have a few observations about this game.


1) Yeah, he’s still Peyton Manning.
2) The refs were too one-sided for my taste. There were many times where calls weren’t made that should have been that hurt Denver, and times where calls were made that shouldn’t have been that helped Baltimore. The Broncos shouldn’t have had to play the Ravens and the refs. The Ravens were good enough without the help.
3) The Ravens had their way down the right side, and beat Champ Bailey all day.
4) Raheem Moore let his team down. He was the safety that was supposed to be over the top, but cut inside, not only blowing his coverage, but also stopping the corner from covering inside. He allowed the final Ravens TD, and thereby the win. I feel bad for the guy, because he’ll have to live with that till next season.
5) Yeah, I was rooting for Manning (and Jacob Tamme and Brandon Stokely) because even if they’re playing for the wrong pony, I still love these former Colts. But I’m also glad for Jim Caldwell, former Colts Head Coach and current Ravens play caller.
6) To me, the most disappointing thing about this outcome is that I think the Broncos stood a better chance of beating Tom “the chump” Brady and the Pansies. The last thing I want is them to be in another Super Bowl.

Niners-Packers. Just another great game. This was fun to watch (until I went to bed). Again, I’m sad that the Packers lost, mostly for Jeff Saturday. This was a shoot out, and again both of these teams deserve to go to the championship.

Falcons-Seahawks. Sad to say I turned this game off when it was 20-0. I thought that was it. While Seattle secretly won all season, they secretly came back. However, it was not enough to overcome Hotlanta, which looked as good as they ever did this season.

Pats-Texans. Poop. This game went just how I thought it would, but I’d still like to see the NE loose. Why? Because Tom Brady is a chump.
