Ravens run past Patriots.

Ravens win Ravens win!

The Baltimore Ravens have finally beaten the odds and a top tier quarterback. The final score of the AFC Wildcard game between these two teams was 33-14. That's right, the Ravens played the underdog role and beat the New England Patriots in a blowout, despite what the final score belies. The only offensive production the Ravens saw was from their run game. The Patriots could not stop it so they got run over.

The most impressive thing about the Ravens performance this afternoon was their defense. They easily shutdown the run and eliminated their passing game for 3 quarters. Brady started getting in a rhythm in the fourth quarter but it was too late then. At that point, the Ravens had already gotten too far ahead for their opponent to catch up to them.

I do not know who was starting at quarterback for the Ravens this week but whoever it was did not look like the Joe Flacco that was starting in the beginning of the season. The quarterback who showed up in New England only threw ten passes and completed four of them and had one pass intercepted. If Flacco decides to show up in Indianapolis, he will have to throw the ball. I do not think the Ravens can do what they did this week again next week.

Biggest Play of the Game:: Ray Rice runs for 83 yards on a first and 10 on the first play of the Ravens offense.
