Time 1:00 pm
Road Team: Baltimore Ravens
HomeTeam: 2010 AFC West Champions Kansas City Chiefs
W-L Records: Ravens 12-4, Chiefs 10-6
Avg Points Scored: Ravens 22.3, Chiefs 22.9
Avg Points Allowed: Ravens 16.9, Chiefs 20.4

How the Ravens will win: The Ravens will forever be known for their super defense. Terrell Suggs, Ed Reed and Ray Lewis all need to be accounted for as each can make a game changing play. On offense, Joe Flacco continues to grow and with weapons Ray Rice and an improved core of recievers, there is no need to worry that this young QB will crumble under the pressure.

How the Chiefs will win: For a young team making the playoffs for the first time in years, protecting the football is vital. Going up against one of the best defenses in the league, the Chiefs can not afford to turn over the football.

The Pick: Ravens 21, Chiefs 10. Defense wins championships. Case Closed.
