How much better is the Ravens team on paper than the Bills?

The problem is not a talent disparity, but a scheme disparity. Buffalo's defense was constructed to be small and fast, so they are naturally going to struggle against big and powerful run games. It's actually funny when you think about it. This team was constructed with beating the Chiefs in mind. Yet we can't get past them in the playoffs to save our lives. The Ravens are easily the worst matchup for us in the entire NFL. And they have now lost two in a row to us, and are 0-2 against the Bills in the playoffs. -
Literally, yes. One of those guys is now a top 5 interior lineman entering his 3rd season.

WOW !

Lamar does not possess the power or physical running game that Allen does. Not even close. Jackson is 6’2/205. Allen is 6’5/237. Allen has enough speed and elusiveness to at least be in the same world as Lamar. He’s essentially a hybrid of Jackson/Henry. Allen also has more arm talent at the position. Both are all-world talents, but Josh Allen is “the guy”. -

If it continues the way it did yesterday, yeah I do. Ben Johnson isn't tethered to him and he isn't going to waste his head coaching opportunity on a QB he didn't pick and doesn't believe in. Williams has time to prove me wrong but as of not I see way too many flaws that haven't gotten any better since week 1 last year. -
Can we, somehow, make this about McDermott and why we should have hired Ben Johnson this past year??

this is not the Ravens defense of Lewis, Reed and Siragusa. Their D is good but not great -
This will be a hard fought physical game. Bills win but Jets cover.

I will only partially agree with this. Teams have been crowding the box more against us but I fall more on the side of it's just them not respecting our boundary receivers at all. Coleman might have changed that this week however. -
I can’t take credit for this one. They kept hanging around and I kept thinking they still had a chance. Wife was bummed and fell asleep. The couple (huge Bills fans) with whom we were vacationing were upset about it and went to bed. I did keep my mouth shut about the possibility of a comeback so I didn’t jinx them. SO WAIT! MAYBE I CAN take some credit……..

That is also true for Josh. Allen is a very gifted runner, one of the best ever. But Jackson is the greatest to ever do it from the QB position. -

Pre-game I expected the Ravens O to manhandle our D, what with missing #1 draftee, two vet starters and generally being in transition. TBH I was not optimistic about the result. Josh saved our bacon yesterday but McD is an excellent defensive coach. Assuming we play them later in the year we will be a lot better on both sides of the ball but especially on D. Josh Allen will beat them again. -
One would expect a coach to buck up a player so it’s no surprise to me. Williams had a couple good moments so it wasn’t all bad. But he took himself out of position on too many occasions imho.
-
Hoecht should help significantly against the run the next time we play the Ravens. As should a healthy Hairston in coverage. The D will get better, thanks to better players and improved play from the players who were out Sunday night.

That's interesting you point out Dorian Williams as a factor in this game because McDermott was uncharacteristically praising him in his presser yesterday.

Maybe Tyler Dunne's next piece? 😁

QB: Josh Allen > Lamar Jackson RB: Derrick Henry > James Cook WR1: Zay Flowers > Keon Coleman WR2: Khalil Shakir > Rashod Bateman WR3: DeAndre Hopkins = Josh Palmer (only due to age) TE1: Mark Andrews > Dalton Kincaid/Dawson Knox LT: Ronnie Stanley = Dion Dawkins LG: David Edwards = Andrew Vorhees CR: Tyler Linderbaum > Connor McGovern RG: O'Cyrus Torrence > Daniel Faalele RT: Spencer Brown > Roger Rosengarten EDGE 1: Joey Bosa > Kyle Van Noy EDGE 2: Greg Rousseau > Odafe Oweh DT1: Nnamdi Madubuike > Ed Oliver DT2/3: Travis Jones/Broderick Washington > DaQuan Jones/T.J. Sanders MLB: Roquan Smith > Terrell Bernard OLB: Matt Milano > Teddye Buchanan CB1: Christian Benford = Marlon Humphrey CB2: Tre White = Jaire Alexander CB3: Taron Johnson > Nate Wiggins SS: Kyle Hamilton > Cole Bishop FS: Taylor Rapp > Malaki Starks With 22 starting spots, I would say the Bills are better at 9 spots, the Ravens are better at 8 spots. The other 5 spots I would consider a wash. -

I never said Lamar wasn’t great. He is one of the best to ever do it. But he cannot make all of the same plays that Josh Allen can. Allen combines arm talent, speed, and power in a package that has never been seen before. He is the best pure football player in NFL history. That’s not to take anything away from Lamar or Patrick. But they have advantages that Allen does not — HOF teammates, SB winning coaches, and GMs that can identify top-end talent in the draft, for starters. -
Ed Oliver hit on 3rd down last drive. Wow
Wayne Cubed replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
Got caught without Oliver on the field. Same thing they were doing in 1st half, that Ed adjusted to 2nd half, except TJ Sanders was in and not Oliver. Run away from the 3T. Scoop blocked TJ and Bosa out of play so they couldn't collapse the running lane, hence why it's a massive hole to run through. Bernard tries to fill the gap and key on Hnry but the hole is massive and he get's blown up. Rapp either makes businss decision or wrong angle or is tired. This is the same I formation the other long runs from Henry came from. -
Guys, the record of 250 yards in a single quarter isn't the entirety of the record... he also added 2 rushing TDS (and a passing TD). That's never been down (and likely won't be for a long, long, long time). 250 passing yards and 2 rushing TDs in one quarter. Let that sink in. No more discussions, Josh is first-ballot HOF right now.
