Suh is moron.

The refereeing, particularly in the first half, however, was abysmal. The fact that I can't watch one NFL game without seeing an incorrectly called chop block or horsecollar is almost enough to make me stop watching.

there's another one for ya

What bugs me is seeing receivers who have no chance at a poorly thrown ball pull up short just to initiate contact and get a PI call, looks like the NBA, kinda sad really..

You have to wonder what is going on in his head. The guy off the field is soft spoken and well spoken. He was an academic all american. Again, you have to wonder what is going on in his head. He needs to sit a game or two.

Not doing his team any favors for sure, the Lions have to go to GB to finish the regular season and now he just gave the best team in the league huge motivation to crush them in a home game..

Bah, stupid holding penalty nullified the Gin Jr. TD. Could've been a close game. Oh well, still in 1st place and on pace to get home field for 1st round of playoffs.

Niner offensive line coach should be fired :thumbsdown:

Raven's front four did dominate today but it's just one game, they are still a 9-2 team and maybe they can figure out how they got owned so bad today and make adjustments..

Gives us some things to work on. I doubt the Ravens will make it far in the playoffs anyways. We need to prepare for Pitt now.

Had it not been for the chop block penalty and that PI on the interception, would have been a totally different game.. Doesn't help Chilo was fucking horrible today. Great game by the Ravens allows us to improve hopefully.

Why not? best west coast AFC is Raiders, meh, Patriots can score points but the D struggles against good teams, Texans having to play Leinart at OB are no longer a contender IMO so that leaves a Ravens/Pitt AFC championship game, question is can any defense slow down AR and co. long enough to win a SB??.

Soooo many penalties in that GB/Detroit game, I wonder what the final number of penalties was. So many penalties in all the games today really.

Waiting for the Suh defenders to come in here any moment.

LOL. How the hell can anyone defend that? Total bush league move by someone who needs anger management. He'll be sitting out the next one. He needs to learn a lesson and no more making excuses... Man up, own it, be done with it, don't let it happen again.

Getting back to the Packers/Lions game yesterday. I'm wondering with both teams pretty even on paper if McCarthy and Capers started to negate the strength of the Lions by just having the players call out the Lions. Because during the first half there were a shit-ton of flags on the field, which could very well be an indication that the Packers were playing some sort of mental warfare against the Lions and the Lions basically responding as a young team would. Think about it; Thanksgiving, Lions playing well, National TV Audience, Defending Super Bowl champs coming in to town undefeated. McCarthy is a huge Sun Tzu kind of guy too.

IMO the Packers D must spend a lot of time studying tendencies of opposing QB's, the jumped on some pass routes they were expecting. The lions D had a great first half but to ask it to repeat that in the 2nd was not realistic, and once Rogers got going their frustration and lack of discipline, (HC, IMO) showed..

There he goes using the "God knows I'm right" excuse. I didn't think people in the public would do this kinda shit, but he proved me wrong. I'm trying not to hire his kind anymore. It's disgusting. He should be banned for at least 2 games.

Damn I was hopping that SF was going to win. As a Steelers fan I need the Ravens to lose anther one. I don't want to be the wild card and have to head to Baltimore. I think the Steelers have the best chance against GB. If they can play ball control and keep GB's offense off the field that will give them the best chance. Also if Ben does not throw any INTs then I can see the Steelers winning.

Depending what Raven's team shows up I think they've got a great shot. They play really well against good teams and pussyfoot around against mediocre teams. Guess we'll see when the playoffs roll around.

Suh is an idiot. Anyone listen to his post game comments. Just moronic. Claimed he was trying to get free...when you can clearly see him trying to stomp the Green Bay players arm. I can maybe see the excuse for trying to get up and using the players helmet, but with his status in the league that is still inexcusable.

If the Ravens faces the AFC west winner you still gotta like their chances with their D and they showed 2 years ago the ability to stifle Tom Brady and the Pat's offense so IMO it looks like an eventual Ravens/Pitt AFC championship game..

That's the really odd thing for me too. He does seem like a well spoke, intelligent guy off the field and in interviews. He doesn't appear to be a thug like many others do (Hall, Finnigan, Pacman Jones, Benson, ect). But then he just turns into a raging, dirty SOB once he puts that helmet on.
