Well we just lost 49-24, let Manning score 7 TDs for the first time since 1962, and had the Ravens worst franchise lost at 49 points. Sighs. We never get respect, we're used to that, but games like this are why we don't. People will forget how we blew by Denver last year in double-overtime, or how we clowned Tom Brady. They will remember this game now, how we got clowned. It is what it is. As a Ravens fan, I don't expect respect, in fact, our swag is built on that fact that nobody ever respects or believes in us anyways. We're used to it. We play for ourselves, not the newspapers and Sports Center commentators. We clowned Manning and Brady last year because for the past ten years those two QBs in particular accounted for half our play-off losses, and we were pissed. The Ravens Superbowl was a payback, not a dynasty. By the way, even after just watching literally the worst Ravens game ever (hey, it statistically had to happen sometime, and in a season a loss is a loss, if we manage 11-5 or 10-6 this game won't even matter), I still feel confident we'll make the play-offs (as usual), play a hot Cinderella team (as usual), beat them and send them home packing (as usual), then go home in the next round. That is Ravens football. Raider fans ain't been to the playoffs in years. Only the Ravens have one a play off game every year for five consecutive years, period. Its our brand of football, and it will not change because of one epically bad game
KEEP CALM AND KEEP ROOTING FOR THE RAVENS!
