The Baltimore Ravens set another record yesterday, one that may likely never be broken during our lifetime.



With 223 yards rushing against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore set the NFL single 16-game-season team rushing record with 3,296 yards, breaking a mark that had stood for 41 years. The 1978 New England Patriots rushed for 3,165 yards, during an era when running the football was much more prevalent.

However, Sunday was the ninth time this season that the Ravens rushed for at least 200 yards in a game, and they ended the regular season with another dominant rushing performance.


Additionally, they beat the Steelers in weather conditions, using nearly all second string players.

Super Bowl, here we come!

Forget all that we're back to Zero now
let's see what the playoffs brings that is what counts.
Win you move on...lose you go home..

good luck everyone and

FLY EAGLES FLY

Gary, ... Actually, I think we are entering an era where running will be more prevalent, only now it will be the QBs who will be adding to the running stats ...
Maybe not in OUR lifetime, but ...

And the Steelers are just another 8-8 team ... just sayin' ...

Yep, records are made to be broken, as the old saying goes, but I guess I'm a bit optimistic when it comes to the Ravens making it through the playoffs and on to the Super Bowl.

Donny, I looked at the stats and don't think the Eagles can beat the Seahawks next Sunday. The Seahawks are a tough team with an 11 - 5 season V/S the 9 - 7 Eagles season.

STATS?????? bahahahahahahahaah ANY GIVEN SUNDAY MY FRIEND!!!

FLY EAGLES FLY

At this point any team in the playoffs has a chance to get to the SB ... and I guess the Ravens have a better chance than some of the others ...

Would like to see a Saints/Packers playoff game, then either of them vs the 49ers ...

Don't much care about the AFC as long as the Pats are done after Saturday ...
Sorry about that Steve ...

Not putting Gary or the Ravens down, but yes, there is a reason why they play the games ... Three teams have won the SB as wild cards ...

Saints are gonna be a tough out for anyone. Ravens better hope the QB stays healthy.
How about Miami beating New England yesterday? Any given Sunday, it can happen.
Dallas was Jeckle and Hyde but lots of teams are happy they are out of it.

How about them LSU Tigers?!!!

Those running stats are scary for us Chiefs fans Gary. Our defense hasn't done too well against the run. BUT the defense has been better every week and been coming into its own big time. I really thing the game will be Ravens vs Chiefs with winner beating whom ever the NFL puts up in the SB.
