Baltimore Hammers New England, 33-14, in AFC Wildcard Upset

It was already 24-0 when I turned on the game! But see the Pittsurgh Tribune-Review, "Rice leads Ravens run game to 33-14 win over Pats":
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) -- From the very first play, Ray Rice and the running Ravens made the team of the last decade look like the pushovers of the new one.

Rice burst up the middle for an 83-yard touchdown with frigid fans still settling into their seats, Tom Brady turned the ball over three times and Baltimore knocked off New England 33-14 on Sunday in a stadium where the Patriots had never lost a playoff game.

The Ravens (10-7) were only slight underdogs to the team that won three Super Bowls from 2002 through 2005. Now, if they beat Indianapolis next Saturday night, they'll reach the AFC championship game for the second straight year as a wild-card team.
Well, the Ravens play in the AFL divisional playoffs next week. Here's hoping their cheerleaders are as hot at New England's! Fishersville Mike likes Ashley, but the whole squad is something else. Like our friend, Kelsey:

Thanks for the link. I'm looking forward to Baltimore at Colts next weekend.
