Once again, the road to the Super Bowl goes through Foxborough.
On Sunday at 6:30 p.m., in a rematch of last year's AFC championship, Baltimore comes to Gillette Stadium to tackle New England.
Last year's battle ended memorably when Pro Bowl Ravens kicker Billy Cundiff missed a short field goal that would have sent the game into overtime. The Patriots won 23-20.
This year, the Patriots are an 8.5 point favorite to reach their second straight Super Bowl. The over/under is 51, as Vegas expects the trend of high-scoring playoff games to continue.
I was born in Baltimore, so I'll enrage everyone and pick:
Ravens 28, Patriots 24
What's your prediction for the score this year? No prizes, but we'll circle back after the game and give props to the person who was closest.

Thanks for the guesses, folks. Unfortunately, the Ravens beat the Pats 28-13 to earn a spot in the Super Bowl against the San Francisco 49ers.
