Ravens pull off the big upset last week and set their eyes on New England. Who will you pull for and who'll win?

Brady's bunch is laying a whopping 10 points in the title game, 9 in some areas. Sure, hand them the keys to New Orleans but I'll be cheering loud for an all Birds superbowl and would love to see Ray Lewis get to the dome.

I will pull for Brady to lose in the SuperBowl to either NFC team.

Agree with Mud.

Pulling for Baltimore (in spite of Lewis) just because I've grown weary of N.E. (though you have to respect what they've done).

Rather see S.F. or Atl win over N.E. or Balt.

....but here's how I see it happening.

S.F. clobbers Atl and N.E. eases past Balt in a low scorer.

Then <gulp> N.E. puts the cherry on top.

The rookie has been great and I've been in his corner since the swap but I think it's unrealistic to expect a super bowl win from the kid...not against a team that has made super bowl appearances a way of life.

Kaepernick is not a rookie. 2nd year. Just saying. Also, while QB is the most important position, it doesn't win or lose the game for the most part.

SF will beat New England in a neutral site. They have a much better defense and won't make the same mistake they made in their regular season match up and go to soft coverage. Kaepernick will light up the Pats defense AGAIN! Niners are just a better overall team.

I think this is much closer than the line would suggest, but in the end, i think NE pulls it out. Don't really care for either team, so I just want to see a good game.

Pats 31
Ravens 27

Personally, I think this is one of two scenarios.

First, NE just blows Baltimore out. They are able to stifle Ray Rice by running up the score, and force the game in Flaccos hands.

Second, this ends up as a field goal game.

I don't know why, but I think its the first not the latter. Will go N.E. 35, Balt. 14

Can Baltimore pressure Brady? To me, that's the key to the game. If so, they can keep the Pats in the 30 point range and win the game because they will score points against that defense. They scored 4 offensive TDs against a much better Bronco defense, so not worried about the offensive end of it.

If they can't pressure Brady, NE rolls up 40 plus and moves on.

I just get a feeling that Baltimore will get it done again. 34-31 Ravens.


Harbaugh Bowl!

Flacco is like the homerun hitter on a baseball team, if he connects the Ravens could pull it off.

The Pats are relentless on Offense so in the end it could just be too much of the same old thing.

Five out of the last six games between these two have been won by six points or less.

Total domination in the 2nd half for the Ravens. Flacco wises up and starts taking what NE was giving.

Harbaugh bowl........
