How do I get into this? I mean, I am still mad from this loss to the Ravens in the AFC Championship game. I mean, how can we score a puny 13 points? HOW?! DOES ANYONE WANT TO TELL ME?! This post is not going to be like a regular Patriots post. No stats, no grades, just talking about the game. So the Patriots got off to a good start in the first half, outplaying the Ravens. By the end of the first half, the score was 13-7. Our defense was doing good. THEN, during the second half, our team started to collapse. Not only did our defense collapse letting up 28 points but then Brady couldn't complete passes and Welker was dropping passes. Yes, Welker did lead our offense but he wasn't doing good towards the end. Then, Patriots running back, Stevan Ridley, took a hard hit and was out for the game. The hit was so hard, it looked like he had died for a minute. Also another thing to mention is, when Ridley took this hit, he fumbled the ball and that pretty much ruined our chances of winning. Brady out played Joe Flacco in yards wise. Our offense also did out play them but the thing that kept us from scoring was Baltimore's defense. Every time we had a good chance, it was ruined. Two times we had to settle for a field goal. In the middle of all this, Gronk was in the luxury box watching us from up top. Another thing to point out is Brady threw 2 interceptions, one of them being a tipped ball that a Ravens player dived for. The second one being a plain old interception in the end zone.
This game was an emotional game for Ray Lewis and his farewell tour will extend to the Super Bowl. Even though the Ravens beat us, I want them to win in the Super Bowl because of Ray Lewis and this will be his final game of his career, in the Super Bowl. This game is going to haunt Boston for a while. I'm still mad about this game. Now what I'm about to say is the most stupid thing anyone can think of. The person who thought of this is jealous of us always winning and probably saw this loss for us a chance to make fun of us. Anyways, football fans have dubbed a new nickname called Bradying.
Man, I feel bad for Tom Brady. After all he has done for New England and this is what people come up with. Anyways, there's probably a lot of questions surrounding this loss. Most fans can't get over this lsos and neither can I, but we'll have to eventually. The Patriots had a great season but not much of a playoff run. Best of luck to Ray Lewis during the Super Bowl. Well, there's always next year...
