Let There Be Blood (figuratively speaking) - Titans vs. Ravens Open Thread

Mbean_tiny by Blitzburgh on Comment 565 comments

It's all about the Steelers doing what they need to do to win in the 2008 playoffs. If they play up to their ability, I think they'll be representing the AFC in the Super Bowl. If they make mistakes, it's anybody's guess. But first things first and that begins with the first of the two divisional round games in the coference beteween the #1 seed Titans and the #6 seed Ravens.

It's been an entertaining and interesting morning here on BTSC as we talked about football for a few minutes, then the merits of Yuengling, breakfast tacos and who we wanted to win this afternoon - Baltimore or Tennessee?

The consensus has been mixed, with the one shared sentiment being that people are just hoping for a physical grueling game between the two punishing teams. No one wishes harm on anybody, but a rolled ankle or two wouldn't be too bad would it?? Just kidding, but odds are this game is going to be a grind it out slugfest. Our game tomorrow likely will be as well. Most games in January are that way though. It's win or go home so the pace of the game invariably picks up. Simple physics means the hitting becomes more violent. So far, Baltimore's defense looks vulnerable. Perhaps it's all the tough games they've been in lately taking its toll against a physical and rested Titans offensive line. I'm hoping we see something similar tomorrow in Pittsburgh.

Me? I'm for Baltimore. A potential Ravens Steelers matchup at Heinz for all the marbles? In Ray Ray's last game as a Raven I'd guess? Sounds good to me.

We'll see. We don't do much scoreboard watching as Steelers fans but if there was ever a time to keep an eye out on what's going on around us, today would be that day in Nashville.

dont disagree with the logic

But I think TN may be srewed. They have left 6-14 points on the board. That’s costly stuff. Want to see how Titans first drive of 2nd half goes but i think im leaning towards Baltimore.

..and one more long drive by tenn will finish them off.

My dream NFL broadcast would be this:

The ability to push buttons on the remote so I can turn off the announcers, turn up the crowd noise in full 5.1 surround, and also have one more button to hear live mics of the players—-with volume control for all of those.

WTF IS THIS

Boomer Assesin (i know that’s not spelled right), just said Flacco is the mirror image of Ben Roethlisberger. Can someone come back down to earth and stop overrating the guy. I understand he’s had some good games and can at times be good at managing a game, but the guy did not break 300 yards once this season, or 3 passing TD’s. People need to realize that he only threw two more TD’s than INT’s. You can compare him to Ben this year cause BB has had rough year, but lets get real; Flacco is a good young QB, but come back to me when he can actually put up some decent numbers.

Everyone thought that Anderson was the up and coming MVP and laughed at Baltimore for letting him get picked up by the Browns. Now he is trade bait. Could be a good QB, could be the next Tim Couch. Don’t start get menopausal because it is being pointed out that he hasn’t proved anything yet.

This is Flacco's second playoff game.

 Roethlisberger’s rookie year was easily better than Flacco’s. BB threw 17 TD’s, 11 INT’s, and had a season rating of 98.1. Compare that to Flacco’s 14 TD’s, 12 INT’s and a rating of 80.3 rating.

I’m not saying Roethlisberger is the best QB but Flacco does not deserve the attention he’s getting.

Ben won his first 15 games as a starter and led several 4th quarter comebacks during those games. I think Flacco is very good, but Roethlisberger’s rookie season was phenomenal.

I’m rooting for the Ravens now just so that we have a chance to say that we beat them three times in a year.

this is a mike tomlin 'beautiful' game

ugly in a way, but just good tough game; lots of strategy, risk management, etc. good stuff. most the games so far in playoffs have been good. i wouldnt be shocked to see a exciting game tonight as well – i think people are selling AZ a bit too short. CAR should win for sure but its not like carolina is ‘east coast’ conditions. Boldin should play too.

I Want to Play Flacco

The more I see of Flacco, the more I am convinced that he is due to meltdown. I thought it would be this game, but I’d love to see him next week, at home. Of course, the Chargers still stand in our way.

does this Tenn O-line have you concerned. It seems like Collins could knit a sweater behind that line.

F yeah it does

We need to draw Baltimore. I suppose if C Johnson was guaranteed to be out then it mightbe a bit different, but Wood and Deebo were totally neutralized against them

I’m rootin for those dirty crows

this game

COULD have been a total blowout. If not a blowout, at least a 10-13 point margin right now with Baltimore scrambling. TNs dangerous even if they have shat all over themselves ath the wrong time today

by Blitzburgh on Jan 10, 2009 6:51 PM EST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

kinda true

But Wood and Deebo still attack most every play even if we’re not bringing potsie and/or foote or a DB. They couldnt do anything on their own. Thats concerning.

Lendale White

=big, fat, slow, glutton, who really is not that good. So glad we didn’t draft him like I was hoping we would back ’06.

When someone says something can “never” happen, they are often proven wrong.

it’s definitly gonna be a good win for them

Rolle and suggs are looking banged up. Titans look more beat up, but are playing a decisively better game over all. Collins is playing offense like he was against us, and that scares me.

The ravens look really bad, I want to play them. Looks like they might pull one out too if hey keep this up.

Both teams are getting destroyed – can’t get any better than this no matter who wins. Flacco and collins need to get suplexed a few more times.
