The 2012 AFC Championship game is set! The Baltimore Ravens will travel to New England to take on the Patriots for the right to represent the AFC in Super Bowl XLVI. Can the Ravens get the road win in New England? Early Las Vegas odds have the New England Patriots at -7, as well they should be.

Baltimore defeated the Houston Texans 20-13 to advance to the AFC Championship game, and it may be an oxymoron, but they looked TERRIBLE in doing so.

Houston ran the ball at will, out-gained the Ravens and had many shots to win the game, but they gift wrapped it for the Ravens as they committed turnover after turnover, leading to the Ravens 17 point first quartr.

Baltimore forced two turnovers in the first quarter and made Houston pay by jumpingout to a 17-3 lead. Add two late interceptions by Lardarius Webb and All-Pro  Ed Reed in the fourth quarter, and the Texans sot themselves in the foot one to many times.

The AFC Championship game takes place next Sunday, January 22, at 3:00 PM ET.
