In my AFC preview, I said the Baltimore defense would have to keep Tom Brady & the New England Patriots to around 20 to 23 points to have a chance to win. Well, the Ravens did that and had at least the opportunity to win it in overtime, but Kicker Billy Cundiff missed a game-tying 32-yard FG with 11 seconds left to give the Patriots a 23-20 win, the AFC Championship, and a trip to Super Bowl XLVI. Brady was Brady, but it was the New England defense that shut down RB Ray Rice and kept QB Joe Flacco out of the end zone in the final moments. The Patriots will try to win their 4th Super Bowl with Brady and Head Coach Bill Bellichek running the show. The Patriots seem to have solved every puzzle around the NFL except the one they will meet in two weeks, the New York Football Giants…..
