Wait, someone got ejected?

yeah. aguytamasmawanada or something. Balt safety? shove to the face/punch after the play. He was being egged on, then lost his cool. gave Jags a first down at the 5 yard line or something, after failing to convert on 3rd.

Let's see your club (the Ravens, right?) put together the number of 10 and 12 win seasons that the Colts have with little or no off-field distractions. Let's be clear here -- the Colts are tanking because of exceptionally poor coaching and recent draft stupidity. Polian's biggest mistake was that he thought the Colts had the luxury of drafting for depth rather than filling holes and it has caught up with them.

Looks like I'm not the only one to have my opinion, either:

The only thing that matters is the Lombardi. 10 and 12 win seasons don't mean shit. I'll take the Patriots 3 super bowl wins over the most dominating defense and one lombardi in the past decade any day of the week. Sorry, Polian is overrated and always has been.

The Ravens offense sucked. Flacco choked. And that was the most pathetic officiating I've ever seen. They topped it off with a "do over" because the Jags had too many men on the field and couldn't get the kick off in time. What the fuck is that shit?

actually, the Jags had too few men on the field when the refs stopped the game to let them adjust...which really pissed-off Harbaugh.

lol

haha, yea, either way, how does that happen? Seriously. I've never seen anything like that by an NFL official before. Those guys were confused all night.

I don't know which team was more pathetic than the other two:

1. Fins - could not hold on a 15 points lead vs. a rookie QB with a 1 win team with a few minutes left in the game AT HOME.
2. Colts - over 60 points being scored upon. I know the offense was bad without Manning but the defense was nowhere to be found.
3. Rams - an average team with a bunch of third string players ran all over them. Where did those Rams learn how to tackle?

So which one will win the Luck lottery? Stay tuned.

Aren't you a Ravens fan? I am done picking those guys for anything.

I'm sure you would take the Pats. I'll hand it to them - they were the source of the biggest laugh I've had in football (SB 42).

My TV is still out until Saturday. How did Flacco end up with a pass to himself? I read a quote from him "Even when we aren't bringing our A game, we have to do better than this" or something like that. What? So was your plan to half ass the game and you only managed a quarter ass and you should really at least get a third of an ass?

The only thing I can think is that he threw it and it got tipped at the line and batted backward. Then he caught the deflection and got tackled for a loss. I didn't see the game though.
