    1. Tom Brady is a better QB
    2. Bill Billicheck is a better head coach
    3. Pats have the better defense
    4. Pats have the better offense
    5. Pats have the better special teams, especially at kicker
    6. Pats are playing at home
    7. Ravens secondary is awful
    8. Ravens played the 28th hardest schedule in the league and barely got in while the Pats dominated the 10th best schedule
    9. Revis and Browner will lock down the smith brothers all game
    10. The league wants Brady-Manning V

    That is the most black and white breakdown of a game… perhaps ever. You're completely ignoring match ups between each teams.

    Tom Brady completed 45% of his passes under pressure (24th in football), his O-line is awful in pass protection.

    Tom Brady was hit more than any QB in the league while under pressure.

    Tom Brady has historically been outed in the playoffs by teams who generate good pass rushes with their front four. New York Jets under Rex Ryan, New York Giants in both Super Bowls and Baltimore twice.

    Baltimore led the NFL in sacks with 49. 

    Timmy Jernigan, Pernell McPhee and Elvis Dumervil each rank among the top 10 at their respective positions in PFF's pass-rush productivity metric, among those with 25 percent of snaps. In 2012, the Ravens ranking top-10 in that metric at DL and 34 OLB through wild-card weekend were Haloti Ngata and edge rusher Paul Kruger.

    Baltimore also has the #2 rush defense in the NFL. 

    Baltimore has the best pass rush in the NFL, going against a QB who historically is subpar versus a good pass rush. They won't be able to run the ball… so… how do they cover?

    I agree they win, but people who think they are running away with this game are kidding themselves. Low scoring 3 or 4 point win for NE, possibly BAL steals it.

    Baltimore has the #1 rush defense in the AFC and the best pass rush in the NFL. Give me a break.

In 2012, the Ravens ranking top-10 in that metric at DL and 34 OLB through wild-card weekend were Haloti Ngata and edge rusher Paul Kruger.

    Baltimore also has the #2 rush defense in the NFL. 

    Baltimore has the best pass rush in the NFL, going against a QB who historically is subpar versus a good pass rush. They won't be able to run the ball… so… how do they cover?

    I agree they win, but people who think they are running away with this game are kidding themselves. Low scoring 3 or 4 point win for NE, possibly BAL steals it.
