Eh, I'm sure it was just so that they could get treatment.

Boy oh boy, this may be the toughest game of the year for a few reasons. The Ravens will have to fight off a let down from their tough, emotional victory over their biggest rivals. They will also have to fight overconfidence for their blow out 17 pt victory over said rival. What else do they have to fight you might ask? Well, how about fatigue, the aches and pains or 3 games in 11 days!? Then they have to fight the euphoria of making the playoffs! All of that and we haven't even gotten to the Texans, a desperate team full of talent, but void of many of their super stars because of injury. They too have already clinched a playoff spot, in fact they won their division: yeah, they are that good. Like the Ravens they are playing in their 3rd game in 11 days. Yes, they do have demons to find off not named Ravens. Their quarterback may be young, but he is excellent at avoiding the rush and, very, very accurate. Their passing game is an extension of their running game, something the Ravens defense struggles with. Their defense is good, fast, instinctual, they can rush the passer with the best of them. These game on short week's are hard enough to predict, make them the 3rd game in 11 days (yes I cannot stress that enough) and on Christmas day too boot, this game could end in a 9-6 score or be a high scoring affair, maybe something in between. So, who ya got?

Yep, it's one thing like Tennessee gettimg smoked, they are one of those team that just come out flat, but has the talent to beat any team. This year there just isnt a great team. Even Oregon is beatable. But these smaller schools clearly are not up to it and next week will be even worse with blowouts.

Yeah that was an incredible catches by Dell while getting his knee blown up.

Tough one next week, short week, 3rd in 11 days, man this is not fair to the players nor to the integrity of the game. I say that for all the teams this year doing 3 in 11.

Great game sealing play. Yes, I was behind, I don't smoke in the house so I pause the game to go have one. This game was proof that if they don't beat themselves, they can best anyone.
