    I agree with this. I'm tired of some Texans fans having a grudge against Jacoby Jones and pulling for the 49ers so that he didn't get a ring. That was so last year, and he wasn't on the team when the Texans lost to the Pats earlier in the play-offs.

    Congratulations to him and the Ravens organization.

    What? If they call hold then they redo 4th down and the ravens run around in the end zone again for a safety. It's a no lose situation to hold every time you run that play


    What makes you think holding forces the ravens to punt the ball

    I guess I forgot about that. In the NBA, they usually look at when the call was made to add more time to the clock, especially in late-game situations.

    That's a problem with the rules in the NFL. They should re-examine how they enforce penalties such as these. It's win/win for the Ravens in that situation. A penalty should be a penalty. They gained a clear advantage with that penalty whether called or not.

    Anyone catch the 80 yard score in puppy bowl?

    Pretty sure holding in the endzone is a safety.

    Ray Lewis needed about 30 minutes darkness, unaccounted time, to commit another murder.

    He made so many ridiculous mistakes during the game, like when Harsbrough had to call a timeout because he didn't know what play to run.

    He played exceptional in the 2nd half but still made some bad mistakes. Too much double-clutching, too indecisive, he got bailed out by great catches.

    Ravens have such a good offensive line, Flacco has all the time in the world to throw a pass, but he played sterling the entire game. Hate how the NFL is so hung up on it's quarterbacks though, this was a great team effort by both sides.

    I don't get how the Ravens didn't run the ball after Gore had that long run to put them inside the 5. Just terrible playcalling.

    And Kaep missed Moss a few times wide open. I can't believe folks in here calling Colin a scrub though.

    He gone done choked man, he was shook the entire first half.

    People have short-term memory he was trash the first half, played great in the 2nd half but got bailed a few times too. There were great plays by everyone on the 49ers to get them back into the game.

    Kaepernick has the makings of an elite QB, but he's still too green. Flacco played an impeccable game but the Falcons have just been playing some ridiculous football.

    3 plays in the red zone for the championship and he couldn't work it either, simple as that.

    Colin was basically a rookie in terms of games started. He played great in the 2nd half and gave his team a chance. Sure he struggled in the 1st half but he is far from a scrub and it is silly for some people to even call him that.

    The failed 3 plays in the redzone was due to terrible playcalling.
