Bet Billick wishes he still had that time out. 

Pretty sure he wished he still had that 4th and 1 timeout about 30 seconds after it was called.

Uh, yeah.....guess that would have ended the game. 

I'm dumb

The Ravens could have inserted the fatal dagger about a dozen times in the last minutes of that game. It was like watching an action hero impossibly escape death again and again. The Steelers defense is nasty, I hope they take out his knees like they did with Carson Palmer a couple years ago.

An ad hominem fallacy consists of asserting that someone's argument is wrong and/or he is wrong to argue at all purely because of something discreditable/not-authoritative about the person or those persons cited by him rather than addressing the soundness of the argument itself.

That's more amazing and unlikely than the end of the NE-Baltimore game.

This is all prelude to when the Dolphins blow out the Patriots by 30 points.

That would be better than sex. Way better.  ;D

Of course, it would also be cool if the Dolphins had both winless and perfect seasons!!
Three things can happen when you throw the ball, and two of them are bad.

10.1 million watched Packers/Cowboys on a channel no one has. The cable record is around 17 million, so this thing would have been off the charts if it was on ESPN or broadcast.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

The cable record was set during the Patriots/Ravens game, which became the highest-watched show in the history of cable TV, right?

Farging kickoff from the Ravens own 35 yard line.  I can't stop laughing at that. 

This ridiculous kick was also a rare coaching error on the part of Bill Belichick. He missed an easy opportunity to pin the Ravens as far back as their own 5 yard line.

The NFL rule on kicking the ball out of bounds on a kickoff states:

QuoteWhen a kickoff goes out of bounds between the goal lines without being touched by the receiving team, the ball belongs to the receivers 30 yards from the spot of the kick or at the out-of-bounds spot unless the ball went out-of-bounds the first time an onside kick was attempted.

In other words, if Gostkowski had blasted the ball out of bounds, the Ravens would have had the choice of taking over at the 5 yard line or wherever the ball went out of bounds. All Gostkowski would have had to do was make sure it goes out of bounds past the 20, and the Ravens would have been worse off than the blast through the back of the endzone.
