Yea I think they got bad spots on 2nd and 3rd down. On 3rd Id have tried the two yard tush push. If you don't get it and you are within 6 inches then go again on 4th. If you are stopped and its still a long 1 kick the FG and go up 8 same as they did from the 2.

The fact he was trying to twist his body to come back for the ball and then get in contributes to the drop. That is my point. He should still catch it. But it was needlessly more difficult than it needed to be.

If he catches it and falls he is short. He is trying to come back slightly for the ball and then adjust to fall into the endzone. It increased the degree of difficulty on the play. He should still catch the ball. But is was a poor throw.

It was 2nd and more than 10 is what I mean. It was a forced passing situation. Milano did speed him up a bit on the throw but I agree Lamar just mailed it. It is about being patient and just knowing if you can get Lamar into multiple obvious passing downs he will give you some chances. And then you gotta take them, to get stops or even better take the ball away.

But not in the endzone.

Yea they have to.

It has Jones and Karlaftis.

They did a good job on Henry. He had a couple of nice runs second half but I think their plan on him largely DID work. They had some success with Hill by breaking tendency (they don't run a ton with him normally) and he caught the Bills by surprise a couple of times playing pass. But you just have to settle in accept you are not going to shut them down but put Lamar in enough obvious passing situations to force mistakes. And they did. That is how you beat Baltimore. Keeping that offense totally buttoned up just isn't happening.

They are not brain dead they just have an agenda and make everything fit it. Defense blows? McDermott's fault. Offense struggles? McDermott's fault. Other team makes a great play? McDermott's fault. I thought he and Babich coached a good game today. Brady didn't have his best day but even there... he is hamstrung by what he has at wide receiver to an extent. I just worry a tad that Baltimore just gave Spags the blueprint.

It was 100% the right call. If it only put them up 7 then it's different. But the calculation for me was kick go up 8 you give yourself 3 shots to win: 1. Stop them scoring the TD 2. Stop them scoring the 2pointer 3. Even if they score both get the ball with about 90 seconds and 2 time outs to kick a winning FG.

Yea he got too conservative 3rd quarter - that tight end screen on 3rd and medium in particular sucked. But in his defense he did try a couple of hard sell play action deep shots and Josh came off them because there wae nothing open. The final drive where we got stopped at the 2 he used two plays I was asking for earlier - slant to Keon and misdirection roll out to the back in the flat - but honestly we don't have a ton of plays that work when a team takes the middle away. And the Ravens second half said "you are not beating us in here, go outside if you like" and we have no answers. That is largely personnel although the bit that is on coaching is they have to find a package for Cooper. Even if just to throw him one or two safe, caught or out of bounds, type balls. Just to make the D respect it.

That was one of those playoff games they will show again on NFL Network for years. Finally one that we won! I also have huge respect for Coach Harbaugh and Lamar. Bills beat a darn good football team. Had to dig deep to do it, but got it done.

Not many. One target and I saw him out there twice the drive before that. Gotta work a way to get him out there. Without him Baltimore 2nd half just went right back to their week 4 playbook. Suffocate the middle and dare them to win outside.

If he catches and is immediately touched, no. He had to catch and roll and stay in bounds. Wasn't impossible or anything but higher degree of difficulty than it needed to be. Yea he should still make it but it 100% did.

Oh yea he should still catch it. But it was a bad throw when it didn't need to be.

It's actually not a good throw by Lamar. The reason he drops it is because it is behind him.and he is trying to come back for it while also make sure he falls backwards into the end zone not out at the 1. Watch it back. That's a lot on the Quarterback.

Josh and Cook obvs Dawkins Milano Oliver Bass

Great game.

That was a great football game between two really really good and well coached teams. Thank ***** for once we won one

Now.... Bills win!!

Douglas has been the worst Bill on the field. But all is forgiven.

Yes we'd need one extended kneel down

Incomplete!!!! Bills win! Actually we need to defend the onside kick

Had all day. Comes down to this.

A Von Miller sighting would be nice.
