Rapid reaction: Ravens beat Broncos
ESPN, by Mike Reiss

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 1/12/2013 8:59:43 PM

Rapid reaction from the Ravens´ 38-35 double overtime victory over the Broncos, viewing it from a Patriots’ perspective: Stunning turn of events. The winner of Sunday’s Patriots-Texans divisional-round playoff game will now host the AFC Championship game (6:30 p.m. ET) as a result of the fourth-seeded Ravens shocking the top-seeded Broncos. Few saw this result coming. If the Patriots beat the Texans, it sets up a rematch of last year’s AFC title game. Ravens’ mental toughness shines. Few gave the Ravens a realistic chance to win, but their big-play offense and veteran defense helped overcome

What heartbreaker for the Broncos and Peyton Manning.

Tebow has better playoff record with the Broncos than Manning.

Broncos are the victims of bad karma.

trading tebow for aging manning was nothing but greed. elway is a genius.

Great game for Baltimore in weather that only the Broncos and Packers are used to, as well as playing a mile high. Baltimore should have asked the Broncos "miss Tebow yet?"

Pathetic, 3rd and a few with a minute or so left, a lame run, No Manning short pass? BAD call Coach..70 yard breakdown proves it..

After the way the Broncos treated Tebow, they deserved this. I hope Elway is happy with his great pick who threw two interceptions and fumbled once.

Announcers were stunned not once but FOUR times when the refs made clearly the wrong call on plays that dramatically altered the game.
Shame on the Broncos performance, but not since the replacement refs have I seen a game called so poorly.

All these people who hate Tebow must just hate to win because that´s what he does- win ball games . Some people are just satisfied with pretty stat lines and losing. I hope the Raiders go after Tebow. It would be a perfect fit.

Congrats to Peyton Manning--all-time greatest playoff choke-job artist in NFL history. Way to go!

Can´t wait to listen to him blame his teammates again. Fortunately Peyton now has plenty of to do commercials (obviously his first love).

Go Texans and Falcons (Red State America teams).

We might try to be at least a little bit fair: Peyton Manning is one of the greatest quarterbacks ever to play the game. It would have been terrific if Tebow could have been his backup -- to sit and learn at the feet of a great player.

Tonight´s game was one of the best I´ve ever seen. I´m not a fan of either team, but very much enjoyed watching it.

Saying bad things about a team or a player doesn´t make your favorite team or favorite player any better.

35 seconds left.... 3rd & 5 for a "gotta have it" first down... defense has to be playing the prevent... and not one, but TWO defensive backs allow the receiver to get behind them.
#36 for Broncos looked like he was backpedaling with two full-length casts on his legs on that tying TD.
So to OT they go... and Manning... GAG.
Well, that´s in keeping with his playoff record, which, going into today, was no better than .500

I´ll bet it suddenly felt like -30 degrees in that stadium as that winning field goal went through the uprights.

Peyton Manning will be voted into the Canton HOF during this decade. Tebow, whose QB skills
are way beyond embarrassing, is out of work in the NFL, as of today.

Lost respect for Elway and co. when they didn´t have the character or self-respect to tell Tebow in person that he was gone last season... He learned it from the press...

As above poster said, Denver should have kept Timmy to learn from Peyton and be his backup... [Remind me what he learned from Sanchez or Ryan...]. Glad tweeters called Fox and Elway out on this ... Love Peyton [taught his mom in ladies´ Sunday School back on St Charles Ave, New Orleans], just no love or respect for Broncos´ mgmt...

Ravens played a better game ... Flacco´s 60-yard completion late was unreal! And the consistent gains of Ray Rice on first and second downs... made me want to see another 4th and 29, like at Qualcomm, Nov 25!

Kudos to Ray Lewis and defense... as well... They have the Spirit and Big Mo!

Anyone who could blame the Refs for Denver´s loss, must have been watching a different game. Baltimore never, ever catches a break from the officials.

A team needs to play to win and I believe the Broncos, at the end, played not to lose. As a Bears fan, I´m an expert on the difference. I´m off to find the 49´er/packer thread.

As with most games, the refs did make some goofy calls but overall the results benefited both teams. It was a great game when you consider the fact that 10 touchdowns were scored in sub-zero conditions. The only field goal was the game winner. I do question whoever made he decision not to let Peyton go for on third and 4-5 yards on their last drive.
With the Broncos out and the Packers losing , I´ll probably get more done around the house in the next few weeks.

One of the first political issues negotiators must tackle in crafting an immigration reform bill is among the most important: what to name it. It’s a decision that will bruise egos, create legacies and deeply affect subsequent messaging battles. “Every time the bill is mentioned in the press, you either have a brand that´s positive or a brand that doesn´t mean anything or even hurts you,” said Frank Sharry, the executive director of the pro-immigration reform group America’s Voice. The wrong name, he warned, could doom a good bill. “If there´s not a

President Obama is eager to build public support for his health care overhaul in the few months remaining before its implementation, but waning enthusiasm from Democrats threatens his effort right out of the gate. Two-thirds of Democrats now believe Obama´s health care reforms will either hurt them personally or have no effect on their daily lives, a Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday shows. In comparison, just 27 percent of Democratic respondents said the reforms would help them. The president has long struggled to convince independent and Republican-leaning voters that his health care blueprint would lower premiums and expand insurance coverage.

The budget President Barack Obama will submit on April 10 will contain a proposal that would prohibit individuals from accumulating more than $3 million in Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and tax-preferred retirement accounts. According to a White House statement, the Obama administration believes the current rules allow some wealthy individuals "to accumulate many millions of dollars in these accounts, substantially more than is needed to fund reasonable levels of retirement saving." "The budget would limit an individual’s total balance across tax-preferred accounts to an amount sufficient to finance an annuity of not more than $205,000 per
