  1. All I’ve ever wanted is just one. The funny thing is if/when Josh gets one, I have a feeling this team is going to win multiple SBs. All the pressure will be off, and I feel like Josh will stop pressing in moments where he doesn’t need to. Aka he’ll transcend to an even more dominant, mentally strong player. Kind of like Jordan or LeBron transitioned their games throughout their career.
  2. Right. Whether the person is angry because the Dolphins lost, they’re stuck in traffic, both, or whatever else, clearly the person has anger issues and mental health problems.
  3. Yeah, there were crowds all over that area. Given authorities have located the vehicle, should just be a matter of time before this criminal is behind bars, and hopefully for a long time.
  4. Here’s one benefit of having McD as our DC and then a new interim OC mid season. McD definitely won’t be interviewing, and would be a surprise if Brady got a call. They can stay focused on the game plan.
  5. I’m surprised they didn’t put Brad Allen on the DET game? 😂 Funny though, he effs up the DAL/DET game and is somehow back reffing in the playoffs. Edit: Misread, looks like it’s Brad Rogers, not Allen. Phew.
  6. If both teams need to run the ball more because of the wind, I agree that both offenses are then rendered less effective. It tightens the game up, clock won’t stop as much, and then increases the chances of a lesser opponent pulling out a win because they happen to make the big play for the TD at the end versus the other team potentially having to settle for FGs. I’m hopeful that we are just that much better than Steelers that the weather won’t even matter, but you won’t convince me that bad weather isn’t an equalizer.
  7. The more wind there is, the more both teams will need to rely on the run game and not their QB’s arm. And yes, Rudolph’s passing game would be rendered to zero before Allen’s, but we better hope our running game is also solid in that scenario then too, which I do believe it can be. Steelers running game is dangerous as well. @billsrul120 There’s a reason you ultimately say you’d prefer no wind, because of all the uncertainty and equalizing element it brings to the table.
  8. I can’t stand when people claim the wind helps us, since our QB has a better arm. If our QB has a better arm is zero wind, that advantage lessens as there is more wind. Using an extreme example, if the winds were 100 mph, neither QB would be able throw the ball forward, and both teams would be forced to run only. Any wind starts to eat into the advantage of the stronger armed QB.
  9. My prediction is the Ravens just going with a vanilla formula tomorrow, and once Steelers take the lead, Ravens won’t be able to get off the wet, rainy field fast enough. I think our better chance is Jags losing to a Titans team trying to play spoiler and nothing to lose. And if Lawrence can’t go, going to further increase that likelihood, although Jags haven’t been playing well no matter who is at QB.
  10. It looks like there’s 26 QBs ahead of Allen, but a lot the QBs in this chart play on the same team. So you’re right, it’s not accurate to say that our receivers are 27th of 32 teams.
  11. Corey told me it’s somewhat probable the game ends in a tie
  12. Or is Johnny Harbaugh stealing signs just like his brother Jim??? 🤔
  13. My impression is they had hope that removing the knee brace would kick start things. And he did show a couple sparks after taking the brace off, but obviously it was still way below an acceptable level of performance.
  14. Funny thing, I had a dream last night about a Von sack this weekend. But, probably just that, as I don’t see him being activated again this week.
  15. I get the Eli comp bc of the two Super Bowls, although Eli threw for a lot more TDs and Yards in his career. After looking at the stats, maybe it’s not THAT crazy to at least have the conversation, but I think the better comps for Flacco from a straight passing stats perspective are guys like McNabb and Bledsoe. Granted those guys did not win SBs, but I would still put Flacco at a level below Eli because of the aforementioned stats.
  16. I found it hilarious one Miami fan saying he sold his tickets a few weeks back, figuring he’d use the money on a home playoff game. I think this game already had a lot of Bills fans coming down for a winter getaway. Now add in the fact that the division is on the line and the Bills have all the momentum, I’m envisioning Bills fans just piling onto an already huge Bills crowd. And for the serious Miami fans, it must be so demoralizing.
  17. What would be your reasoning that he is a HOF QB? Just the fact that he has two SB rings and was the starting QB for both teams?
  18. I think the poor weather won’t help the Ravens put in extra effort, but we will see 😎….
  19. I played competitive sports, but never on a wet field where the game had no implications or where my financial livelihood depended on future games. And I know professional athletes are as competitive as they come. But if I need to make a “business decision” of tackling Najee Harris versus just being ready for the playoffs, it just wouldn’t surprise me if the Steelers roll over the Ravens on Saturday. I’d agree they can’t just let the Steelers pummel them and put themselves in compromising positions, but that extra effort to make a play or tackle may be lacking.
  20. I’d say in this case, it probably helps the Steelers. They have a lot more on the line, so maybe more willing to lay it out there whereas Ravens might not want to risk injury in the poor conditions. Ravens coaches might even tell their players as much…
