    So what does it say about the Titans that they lost to the Ravens who "played as bad as you could possibly play?" And what do you expect to happen a one-dimensional offense loses its one dimension?

    Great teams are able to play through injuries, and the Titans are simply not a great team.

    Based on what I said previous, it says that the mind is more important than physical ability. It always has been and it always will be. Mohammad Ali knew it and so did Micheal Jordan and so did Larry Bird. If you get into their head, you got them.

    The Panthers are looking really bad. I'm shocked at how one sided this game has been.

    The Ravnes didn't get into their heads. That's silly. Here's what happened:

    Jesus H. Who'd have thought that another team could have choked away a game worse than the Titans?

    Nonsense. The Ravens weren't in the Titans' heads. They moved the ball very effectively - and got inside the Ravens' 35 yard line on 7 of their 11 drives. They outplayed the Ravens on both sides of the ball - they just had 2 critical fumbles. That's just great Ravens defense - not "getting in their heads".

    Cards heading towards a dominate win -- it's amazing how exciting playoffs can be...

    What would the Cards ranking be if it were a BCS style system ~ 8th or 9th with zero chance of winning the championship.

    Why do you think they fumbled the ball? Do you think it was the Ravens defense to cause the fumble.

    I am going to get real primal on you here. You could relate those fumbles to the Ravens being the alpha male and the game was the girl. Tennessee gave Baltimore the game because they knew that Baltimore was more deserving of the girl's affection. They submitted to Baltimore, in a sense.

    Time for the Chargers to atone for that loss in the 14-2 year to NE by winning tomorrow against Pittsburgh and getting that AFC Championship Home Game they blew a couple years ago!!

    Disagree. That was throwback classic smashmouth football. You can feel the animosity between the 2 teams. Way more entertaining then the 2nd game.

    I was taking the winner of this game to be the AFC champs. Though I think a Ravens/Steelers game will be another physical game. Not impressed with the Chargers. I'll pick the Ravens to be in the SB.

    I think the winner of the Eagles/Giants game will be the NFC champs. Not really impressed with the Cardinals, Panthers and Delhomme gift wrapped this game tonight to them. I'll pick the Giants but Eagles have have alot of momentum right now.

    I'm like a kid on Christmas right now waiting for the Eagles-Giants game later today. I'm just hoping I get that new game system instead of socks. ;)

    Or, you could say the the fumbles were caused by a physical, aggressive defense and knocked the ball out. You know, the same way fumbles are caused all across the NFL in games where one team doesn't play mind games with the other. I'm going to say my scenario is more likely.

    I was 2-2 last week and so far I'm 1-1, right on schedule.

    According to my trend, that means that either the Giants or Steelers are going to lose today. :p
