Apparently, Peyton was confused and didn't anticipate that he might get picked off. So what else is new? For someone with the reputation of an offensive master, he's clueless a lot, no?

The local beer distributor delivers and that is too far.

Mine does too, but they have minimum order rules, and I refuse to buy 6 cases at a time just for myself. Not that I won't drink them, but I like to keep up the illusion of not being an alcoholic.

How I Imagine Baltimore Talk Radio Sounded the Last Two Weeks:

"The defense is great; the special teams is good; we just have to hope Steve McNair is as good as Trent Dilfer and we've won."
"I think Steve McNair can do what Trent Dilfer did if he just buckles down and focuses."
"Do you think Steve McNair has the same competitive fire as Trent Dilfer?"

I firmly believe Steve McNair has a pile of shattered radios in the back yard.

Peyton versus the Ravens. Is there anyway they can just play to a tie in perpetuity, thereby allowing the Pats-Colts winner to go to the SB?

I hate both of these teams equally, so really torn here. The only thing that would possibly make me happy is multiple, roster crippling ACL tears on both sides of the ball.
