Cincy was a three point favorite.

That's fine, doesn't change the fact that given the way the Raven's D had been playing as of late, and their O seeming to catch up, it seemed likely Balt would put up a better performence then they did.

That game was totally rigged, just like Colts-Cowboys. The Ravens have been rolling and then suddenly only score 7? They miss an easy FG so they don't cover the spread. Somebody's placing big bets and paying officials or something.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm going to assume that's sarcasm, but there in an explaination other then being rigged. Both teams (Colts and Ravens) had a bad game.
In the Colts-Dal game alot of bonces didn't go their way, these things happen. It wasn't as if the Cowboys didn't play a good game (they certainly did) but the Colts got unlucky, suck it up and move on (the Colts got lucky on a few balls in the NE game, give and take). The Ravens too had some breaks not go their way, and their opponent (anyone who says they can predict how the Bengals will play is a lier) had a good game, more sucking it up is called for.

You can watch the tape and see where things go a little squirrly and where people are playing poorly. For an excercise in this, watch Grossman vs. P. Manning. One throws wild passes that would be Int Grounding if they weren't picked off, and the other hits his Wide outs and gets passes tiped to defenders.

That's what's awesome about the league. Any team can win. I don't think they'll be much debate that it's still:
1 IND/SD
2 BALT
3 NE
4 Every AFC team and a few from NFL Europe
5 CHI

Holy opposing field goal karmic payback for the Colts.

??


[/ QUOTE ]

Opposing kickers have been missing a ridiculous amount of field goals against the Colts this year. Karmic payback that they lose on a 60 yarder.

by a kicker who had been 2 of 6 from 40+ this year.

Colts calling timeout = Bad.

[/ QUOTE ]

60 yard FG=Lucky. Sucks to be the Colts today, but they got unlucky, [censored] happends. Hats off to Vince Young, he should get the game ball. He made a few errors but did just enough not to lose this one.

How was that luck? It's not like there was some incredible wind in the dome that sent the fg in. He kicked it good enough to make a 60yd, that's skill not luck.

You don't properly understand the never-say-die "variance" claim of 2+2. The fact that the game still would've been tied via a miss or that the Colts blew a 14-0 lead doesn't matter.

Man, teams really can come together and improve. Catch a team down, like Bolts vs. Tenn or SF early, and you get total domination (or at least a convincing win like vs. Browns). A couple months later, its like they're a new team.

[/ QUOTE ]Agreed. I've already been through this with everyone after the Philly/TB game though.
