Did he? I did not know that was a proven fact.

I've always despised the Niners and their fans since the early 80's. I see no reason to stop now.

Kerry Collins was the first decent QB we had after Phil Simms.

I don't recall Eli ever having a Championing game like Kerry had either.

+1. Would have been closer, but the better team won. We couldn't score against that D, and even when we had a kick returned for a TD, the Ravens did the same on the very next play.

I liked him as a QB too. Much better than what we had in between him and Simms. But he failed big time that night.

You know it to be true.

True, but we didn't have much to smile about.

Of course I heard the rumors and always thought of him as a low-life until last year. Maybe it's watching all those commercials of him and the cute little girl "interviewing" him...

Do you see the season as a success since we made it to the Super Bowl? Or, since we got our butts kicked you see it as a failure.

Me, I take no pleasure in that season, despite the playoff ride and truly fantastic championship game.

I try my best to remember the positives from every season and not dwell so much on the negative, but...it's damn hard to remember the positives when there is a monstrous thing like a SB thrashing to jump out at you.

So put me in the "no" column.

i think, had shaun williams not blown the coverage to give the ravens an easy, early lead, or had the refs not boned armstead and brought the game back to 7-7, and collins at least played like he did the second quarter the whole game, that could have been a very different game.

you think back to the titans earlier that postseason, and they would have won had they not had a stupid blocked chip shot FG for a td. Giants were similar to that team. remember that the ravens were a great defense, but not a great team. very poor offense to complement them.

that was a good team that was weak at CB, TE and OL, but very strong on DL, WR, RB and to an extent LB
