With P. Manning out, road less rocky for Ravens

The Ravens breathed a sigh of relief over the weekend. Not only did they beat Miami, but Indianapolis quarterback Peyton Manning was eliminated from postseason play. He was the one quarterback in the AFC that could have carved up the Ravens' secondary with his great receivers. The remaining quarterbacks -- Ben Roethlisberger, Kerry Collins and Philip Rivers -- are good, but nothing the Ravens can't handle.

The Ravens have just as good a chance as any of the four remaining teams to get to the Super Bowl, even though the Titans and Steelers are clear favorites and have home-field advantage.

Amen, Brother!

Good riddance to bad company.

Exactly! Is there any OTHER team the ravens are afraid of? Hell no!

Echoing my boy T-Sizzle, you can officially eliminate Pittsburgh, courtesy of James Harrison being chosen Defensive Player of The Year; he will join all of the other unworthy chosen award winners in the realm of playoff elimination as Pittsburgh bows to San Diego this weekend. (note): though I must admit there is a burning desire to get a third crack at those hated Pittsburgh Steelers!

Joe Flacco and the passing game steps it up a notch as the Ravens continue their quest for a second world championship by defeating Tennessee 28-16.

Big deal, you beat Miami, don't plan the parade just yet Raven fans and press lackeys.
