---------Welcome to the live blog of the AFC Wild Card Game------------
The Indianapolis Colts roll into M&T Bank Stadium where they will face the Baltimore Ravens in what could be Ray Lewis' final game in the NFL. It's the AFC Wild Card game and we have the live blog with play-by-play and live scoring updates.
If you can't watch the game, don't worry we will cover everything from stats to getting images from the action.
The Colts, though a Wild Card winner, enter this playoff meeting with a better record and are the hotter team. They are winners of four out of their last five and have been riding the Andrew Luck and Chuck Pagano wave all season long.
Luck, the overall No. 1 draft pick in the NFL, proved to be exactly what everybody thought he would be and beyond. Luck's discipline in the pocket, ability to scramble and strong arm have been a deadly combination for opponents as the Colts finished the season 11-5 and made it back to the playoffs.
They face a heavily motivated team in the Ravens. The team would love to get their leader on and off the field, Lewis, a Super Bowl ring before he retires.
At the start of the 2012 season, the Ravens were a heavy favorite to win the AFC Championship and make the Super Bowl. However, they closed out their season losing four of five.
The Ravens are an average team on defense and offense. There isn't really anything special about them on the stat sheets, but when playing together, this team is absolutely deadly with Ray Rice, Anquan Boldin and Torrey Smith leading the offense.
The Colts have the seventh best passing team in the NFL. So expect deep passes and a lot of scrambling tonight as Lewis would love to go out with a bang.
