Gametime: Ravens @ Dolphins

It's finally game day and all the trash talking between both teams' fans has to come to an end, at least for one team. After this game, one of these two surprising teams will be moving on to the next round while the other is going home for vacation to watch the remainder of the post season on TV.

I apologize for the lack of depth and supporting insight on my prediction of the game, but I am getting ready to leave for the game and will be there in person to wildly cheer on the Ravens with the rest of the huge throng of Baltimore fans who have made the trip to South Florida just like me. We will be heard on TV's yelling "Heeaaappp" and "Reeeeed" so loud you'll hear us in Baltimore! The sight of so many purple-clad fans will almost make this a home game, just like it was in October when a sea of Ravens fans saw us demolish the Dolphins 27-13.

I see the same thing happening again today, as the teams have improved but they still are focused on the same things that they brought into week 7 and which have made them successful since then. A lot of Dolphins fans have said they are predicting a Miami victory, but would not be totally surprised if the Ravens beat them. However, ask any Ravens fan the same thing and they will say that they would be shocked if the Ravens do not win today.

This is because we watch our team all season long and see how badly we beat up the opposition. Sure teams like the Giants, Steelers and even Colts had our number, but they paid the price physically for those wins. The Ravens outmuscled and overpowered the Dolphins in October and plan on doing the exact same thing today. There is really no reason why that won't happen, as even with the excuse of injuries, the Dolphins are pretty much the same team with improvement over the earlier part of this season. Therefore, I totally expect Baltimore to pound the ball down Miami's throat, running with success and passing with efficiency. The Dolphins running game, including the Wildcat, will be ineffective and Pennington just does not have the arm to carry the team to victory. The Dolphins best bet will be to make a couple of long, big plays on offense, defense or Special Teams in order to keep it close, although I don't see that happening either.

The Baltimore Ravens send the Miami Dolphins packing for a well deserved vacation after a wonderful season, but ending earlier than all Dolphins fans want it to.

Ravens:  20-9

I want to hear LET’S GO FLACCO on TV have fun and let us all hear you.

Over the course of the season, we’ve lost three games to playoff teams by the slimmest of margins. The only AFC team that blew us out is now out of contention, and we won’t have to worry about our other embarrassing loss coming back to haunt us until we meet up with the Giants in February. The remainder of our games have been characterized by seriously beating down weaker teams, and that’s what is going to happen again today. Flacco is going to prove why he was snubbed for Offensive Rookie of the Year, our running backs are going to be picking pieces of the Dolphins’ linemen from their cleats for the next week, and our defense will dominate mercilessly.

So good luck Dolphins, because luck is the only way you’ll be pulling this win out of your ass.

At the half, I have to say I’m pretty confident in the Ravens. They’re running well. Flacco is connecting on some beautiful passes. The defense is doing exactly what everybody outside of Miami knew they’d be doing. And then there’s Ed Reed.

Where is Dolphin’s defense? Why aren’t they stopping the run? Pennington has two interceptions in just one half of play. When are they going to get some yardage on runs?

Pennington looks rattled, and who can blame him? Bart Scott has spent the past 30 minutes driving his facemask into the turf. Our secondary made Miami’s QB our bitch. Can Miami recover in the second half? Where’s all the trash-talking Miami fans? Maybe eating a little bit of crow?

Halftime 13-3 Baltimore

Some random thoughts……
-Ravens D looks pretty good especially considering they are outscoring the offense.
-The Wild Cat has yet to be a factor.
-Awww….I think Flacco is trying to grow a playoff beard…Give it time son…your body will change with time….
-Speaking of Flacco…bit of a slow start, but he usually starts slow. No big mistakes and I think he will catch up at halftime.
-Halftime adjustments will be key. All this year, the Ravens have dominated opponents in the halftime. However, I am certain the Miami will make changes and this game is far from over.

A rookie from a small-time college having a mediocre first-ever playoff game shouldn’t be headline news to anybody. He made the plays we needed to get the win, and that’s all that matters to anybody in the locker room. I’m hoping he continues to break out of his shell as the playoffs go along, and continue to improve just like he did in the regular season.

He's the FIRST rookie in the history of the freakin' NFL

to win a road playoff game. I’ll take 9 for 23 for 175 or so with NO INTS. Just don’t turn the ball over, eat the clock and keep getting first downs.

for coming back here and eating some humble pie. Lord knows we did the same at Indy, Tennessee, Pittsburgh and NY Giants. So we know how it feels. Thanks for the cool comments about Reed, who had his third straight 2-interception game and should easily be the Defensive Player of the Year. Good luck to you and your team. Too bad some of the other Dol-Fans who trashed our team and made personal attacks on our fans can’t handle the fact with the class of you guys.

It’s understandable. The Dolphans here quickly crossed the line from trash talk into rude and ignorant very quickly over the past week. The awkward-at-best picture of Joey “I Forgot How to Rush Over a Month Ago” Porter is how I’ll always remember Rzayo24. Nothing like an embarrassing loss to shut up the trailer trash, though.

Still, one thing still confuses me. I’ve read a couple of his posts over at the Phinsider, and a statistically significant number of them are actually legible and semi-well-written. Was this blog’s server erected on an Indian burial ground? Is there just something about coming to the Baltimore Beatdown that turns visiting teams’ fans into illiterate ass holes? I’m still kind of new here, but I’m hoping for the best from the Tennessee fans.

Thats what you get.....

When you mix Cubans with a lifestyle of constant heat in a very insecure city like Miami. Hopefully Tenn will be a little more civil. It has gotten pretty disgusting here with some of the games this season Ampallang. They will come through here and throw out at us that they beat us this season, we have a rookie, how are we ever going to contain haynesworthless, blah blah blah.

Just be prepared, it might get ugly.

I can handle all of that, because those are legitimate concerns. I’m just hoping they don’t resort to personal attacks upon the Beatdowners (uh, yeah…) or the Beatdown itself.

Yeah, his ignorant, annoying, and irrelevant posts were probably not the worst of what we had here. He had to watch his team get bent over a barrel. That’s probably punishment enough for his (very figurative) crime.

Thanks for coming back.

I know that it’s not easy to eat your words. You have my respect for that.

I am also sunburnt!

What a game. Dolphin fans were really cool from where I was. Section 111. It was great after the game when Harbaugh, Heap, Reed, and others came over to all the Raven fans and gave high fives.

Gary Williams must have been doing some recruiting in South Florida as I saw him hanging out with Phelps and Bisciotti before the game.

Reed = Defensive Player of the Year. Dont care who wins. Reed is the Defensive player of the year.

The official Ravens bar in Hollywood Beach (Toucans) was interesting. Anyone go there?

Who is headed to Nashville?

The Dolphins fans in section 154

were pretty rude to me. They made obnoxious comments as the game got out of hand, stating that if I said anything they would kick my ass. Then they did the unthinkable, saying my Hawaiian shirt was gay, purple was a gay color, etc. I kept my mouth shut as I was sort of outnumbered, but wanted to ask them if teal was such a more masculine color? If they touched me I would have gotten security as there was no other Ravens fan within three rows of me. The ones I saw in the stadium cursed and made stupid comments, and I was surprised as there was only a few of them that did that when I was here in October. When we left the stadium, a few said good game and good luck, but overall I was surprised at the amount and consistency of their rudeness.

It was great to see certain sections loaded with loud Ravens fans, especially at the end of the game, when the chant “Let’s go Ravens” could be heard all over the stadium. Sunburned myself but well worth it. Psyched for next Saturday but not sure if I’ll go to Nashville. However, would love to go to San Diego when they beat Steelers. That would be SWEET, huh!?

Like I said in one of my other posts, karma’s a bitch. Not only did their team lose pretty badly, but their children will also be born malformed. Picking on the Ravens Hawaiian shirt is serious business. It sucks you were stuck with the trailer trash, but I’m sure a win puts it all in perspective. Glad to hear we had such a great presence there. I hope it continues into February.

One-on-one

would have been fine for even this old guy, but he had a few thousand friends with him, as there were no purple fans anywhere close to get my back. Besides, I would have just been thrown out, which would be pretty embarrasing. So I just sat there with my hands folded like a polite guest and let the scoreboard do the talking for me! The shirt is now almost getting “terrible Towel” status when our opponents disses it, huh!? Might just have to take it to Nashville?

Not sure about Nashville

Rather save my money for AFC Championship Game in San Diego (yeah, that’s right, Pittsburgh!), and Tampa on Feb. 1st!
