Houston rookie quarterback T.J Yates threw 3 interceptions, he certainly is not Tom Brady, but hey who is. With that said, the Baltimore defense and special teams forced turnovers which resulted in a 20-13 win over Houston. Running back Arian Foster of Houston had a tremendous game running and catching the football however his team were hurt by the turnovers. Baltimore most get better play out of Joe Flacco next week as they head to New England for the AFC Championship Game. The Baltimore defense bailed Flacco out, who looked average at best vs. Houston solid defense. Flacco on 3rd down vs. New England will need to be much better than he was in the Divisional Playoffs. Flacco in 2009 did defeat New England in the Wildcard round thanks to Ray Rice and Baltimore running for nearly 300 yards. The Patriots will key in on Rice, so at some Flacco and his receivers will need to make plays in the passing game. Veterans Terrell Suggs and Edward Reed look to win 1st Superbowl ring, while Ray Lewis eyes his 2nd Lombardi Trophy.
