A hard subject to talk about (Ray Lewis)

As the Super Bowl draws closer, the story of Ray Lewis is one of the biggest topics in sports. I listen to sports radio all day, and one person in particular talked about his past, and his involvement in the murder of two men in a fight. If you don’t know the full story, go here:

Basically, I thought I would share that, and just say that I think Ray Lewis is a great person, and I don’t think he had anything to do with the fight.

The Harbaugh Super Bowl

Holy hell, Sunday Football was amazing. We know what the Super Bowl is going to look like, but let’s look at the wins.

The Falcons came off of their crazy win against the Seahawks, (breaking my bracket, but, hey!) So, here you have the Falcons, going against Kapernick and the 49′ers. Now, I felt like there was no way for Atlanta to win, but I felt the same way last week, so I could never be so sure.

The game started, and Atlanta took an early lead. I expected the 49′ers to come right back and get their own touchdown. But, that didn’t happen. The Falcons continued to play San Francisco hard, and when the 2nd quarter was over, the score was 17-0. I worried a little, but I know that if anyone could come back and win, it was San Fran. Well, they did, and boy did they. For the rest of the game, Kapernick pounded and pounded the Falcons and the defense didn’t allow a single touchdown, before you know it, the 49′ers have won the game.

 

I am officially on the Ravens wagon. I always liked the Ravens, but now I’m committed to this team and to Ray Lewis. They beat the New England Patriots, in their greatest game to date. I am officially taking the Ravens all the way. As a fan, I think they will win, and I think they will be a great team next season, even without Ray Lewis.

Chip Kelly to coach Eagles (Again)

Well, I had originally said that Chip Kelly was going to be coaching the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2013-14 season, but it didn’t happen as I thought it would. He originally said that he would not leave Oregon, which I would of understood. The Eagles suck, and I don’t think Kelly is going to change that, but we will see.

Anyway, Kelly has changed his mind and will be coaching the Eagles. If anything, it will be a refreshing change. The Eagles will be swearing him in today. Do you think that Chip can turn around the Eagles? It sure would be cool to see them in the playoffs.

Divisional Championship

Let me start by saying that I am terribly sorry about not posting in the last couple of days. I won’t go into the details but I ended up in the hospital, and finally got my hands on my laptop.

So, The Ravens beat the Broncos, which is just crazy. I really love the Ravens (Second favorite team) but I didn’t suspect for a second that they would be able to defeat Peyton Manning and the Broncos. But, they did, and here they are in the AFC championship against the New England Patriots. I have been thinking really hard about this game. I honestly don’t know. I still think that the Patriots will win, but the more I wait for the game, the more I think that the Ravens could win. Now, I would love to see the Ravens in the Super Bowl, since it would be a Harbaugh Super Bowl. I don’t see a single way in any universe that the Falcons can beat the 49′ers. So, it will either be Ravens versus 49′ers in the Super Bowl, or Patriots versus 49′ers.

Whichever way it goes, I am very much looking forward to the big game, and honestly. I really hope it is Ravens Vs. 49′ers. I will give my official prediction in a day or two.

Ravens win in double overtime, 49′ers beat the Packers

Goodness, the Ravens/Broncos game was incredible. At so many moments, I thought I was wrong, I thought that the Ravens could actually win, and they did. It was a great win for Baltimore and Ray Lewis couldn’t be happier. It was Ray Lewis who ran up the middle for the game winning field goal. The Ravens will most likely face New England in the championship, and it will be a memorable game for Baltimore, and a memorable game for Ray Lewis.

——————————————————————————————————————-

Well, the Packers/49′ers game isn’t over yet, but I think it is fair to say that the 49′ers are going to win. I will always think that the 49′ers are one of the best teams in the NFL and they are great canidates for the Super Bowl, so we will soon see where their season is heading.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Round 2 of the Playoffs: Predictions, and Super Bowl possibilities

Well, it is time for round two of the NFL Playoffs. The games are going to be great, and we will be one step close to the Super Bowl. Starting those predictions.

 

BALTIMORE RAVENS VS. DENVER BRONCOS

Either of these teams could be in the Super Bowl. They are that great. With Ray Lewis retiring once they lose, and fuel them to win. Or you could look at the Broncos. Peyton Manning is absolutely incredible, and has had an amazing season, coming back from his surgery. I expect this to be an amazing game, but I think that Manning and the Broncos will come away with the win, ending the Ravens season.

                PREDICTED WINNER: DENVER BRONCOS

——————————————————————————————————————-

HOUSTON TEXANS VS. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS

Whether I like the Texans or not, they are here, they are playing this game against the Patriots. The Patriots are somewhat of a tradition within the Playoffs it seems, and they always play strong and win often. I think this game will be no different. I think that Tom Brady will have quite a few touchdown passes.

                          PREDICTED WINNER: NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS

——————————————————————————————————————-

SEATTLE SEAHAWKS VS. ATLANTA FALCONS

I still love the Seahawks, I think they are an amazing team, and I think they could very well be in the Super Bowl, and frankly, I expect it. But, they face the Falcons tomorrow. I honestly feel the same way about the Falcons that I do with the Texans. I think the Seahawk will have no problem winning.

——————————————————————————————————————-

GREEN BAY PACKERS VS. SAN FRANCISCO 49′ERS

Well, it isn’t surprising to see the Packers in the playoffs, and it sure isn’t surprising to see the 49′ers. Kapernick has really created an amazing team, replacing Alex Smith as starting QB. It is obvious that Aaron Rodgers and the Packers will play their best, but I think the 49′ers win. The way they play, they could very well be in the Super Bowl. Here are two of the most prominent possibilities for the Super Bowl.

——————————————————————————————————————-

NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS VS. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS

Well, let me go ahead and say, I expect the Patriots to be in the Super Bowl. They are a great team. It isn’t impossible for either the Ravens or the Broncos to beat the Patriots, but I just don’t expect it. So, the first possible is the Patriots vs. Seahawks.

I love this game. I think it would be intense and I think it would be a shootout and the Seahawks could possibly win, if they play their hardest. The Patriots could very well win, however. They are much more experienced with Super Bowls and facing a rookie, it is hard to tell how it will go.

——————————————————————————————————————-

NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS VS. SAN FRANCISCO 49′ERS

The 49′ers are just a great team, and it would hurt to see them lose the Super Bowl against the Patriots. I really think they have it in them to go all the way. The Patriots, however, still have more experience with Super Bowls, and even if it would be a sad win in my book, it could happen.

Tomorrow night I will talk about some of the Coaches being hired and I will also recap round  2, of the NFL Playoffs.

Tim Tebow in the unemployment line

Not much has happened as we wait for the next round of Playoff games, but today, new Jacksonville coach, David Caldwell said in a press conference, “I can’t imagine a scenario where he (Tebow) would be a Jacksonville Jaguar,”

If Jacksonville won’t take him, then Tebow is up river with no paddle. There is a small chance that someone else will pick him up, but it doesn’t seem like anyone really has a use for him at this point, and I worry (somewhat) that Tebow may end up being a free agent all of 2013. Maybe that will teach him that you can’t make a running back a quarterback.

I am going to try posting more starting tomorrow after my predictions for the next round of the playoffs, because there is a lot I want to talk about.
