There was no way that New England was going to defeat Baltimore in the AFC championship game two years in a row. They weren't suppose to win last year if not for Billy Cundiff. But New England has improved on defense from a year ago. Baltimore was simply the better team in the AFC conference this year. Had they met the Giants in the SB last year, I'm pretty certain the Ravens would be repeating as SB champs this year.
