Tuesday Morning Football?
What time did the Ravens-Packers game finally end -- about 2 in the morning?
Or maybe it just felt that way. We were almost out of beer, I remember that much.
Both teams threw the ball a lot and racked up over 300 yards in penalties, making the contest the second-most penalty-marred game in NFL history.
The 27-14 defeat dealt another serious blow to the Ravens' playoff chances -- I know, I know, what else is new? But if the Ravens run the table and get to 10 wins, maybe they can yadda yadda yadda, you know the rest.
And the Ravens offense took a beating from the Monday Night Football announcing crew, too.
Ron Jaworski called the Ravens offense "pathetic."
Mike Tirico advised a the huge national audience they were looking at "a Baltimore offense that has checked out."
Jon Gruden took Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco to task for making poor decisions.
Not a good night at chilly Lambeau Field for the purple-and-black.
At least it didn't snow.
Although the next blizzard was scheduled to roll into Green Bay today.

It seems our coaching staff is too worried about what the other side might think we're going to do, rather than just doing it. Sometimes you have to do what the other side knows you're going to do, and get it down anyway. It's called dominating a football game and that seemed to work for us early on. Now when we're on the one yard line with first down, we out-think ourselves rather than just letting the best power running fullback in the league get our six points.

I find it funny that Ron Jaworski calls anything pathetic. Coming from a third string QB without any major accomplishments himself.
