I consider @Mister Defense and @PBF81 to be two sides of the same coin. Yin and Yang.

Stop being so mfing reasonable

Sure but unless he magically gets healthy in 4 days….

I think the Bills are gonna win tbh. I was more worried about the Ravens.

I need to shout out AJE. Full disclosure. I think he is a total JAG. A replacement level guy. But every once in a blue moon, he has a game where he makes like 3 or 4 MASSIVE plays. Sometimes he goes 6 weeks between big plays. But when they come, they come in bunches. He had one of those games yesterday. I fully expect him to disappear, but thank god for AJ Epenesa. He simultaneously manages to have a very impactful and invisible 6+ sack season every year. Weird player.

I mean it’s kind of illogical to let Harbaugh live off a single SB with a completely different staff, GM, QB, and roster 12 years ago. I get you would be okay with that kind of illogic (and so would I tbh) but I can admit it makes no sense. The Ravens fans as we know don’t agree. They think Harbaugh is wasting a generational QB and they have a point. If McD wins a Super Bowl with Josh, Josh retires, everyone in the org leaves retires or is fired, and McD gets another HoF caliber QB and can’t break through, I would honestly really understand folks wanting him back on the hotseat. Good HC’s can and do get fired. Much more often than they win Superbowls. Do we think McVay has a 12 year rope when it comes to the Rams? Maybe. Should he? I’m honestly not sure.

Of course we don’t wanna relitigate Harbaugh and co panicking and forgetting to run the football in the AFCCG last year lol

The Bills lost on a missed FG by their shaky kicker last year lol. I guess McD coached Bass to shank it. I’m not even a McD guy but god the Harbaugh slobber is annoying.

I am ready. I am saying the window is shut. The Iggles lost 2 coordinators and went from an SB team to a WC blowout loser.

I will ask you your question back. Do you think the top 5 would hire Harbaugh? Maybe the Eagles but I think maybe the Eagles for McD too tbh

They couldn’t run the football! They thought we would roll over us in base nickel and McD and co played on the line of scrimmage and dared them to beat us over the top. Part of it is Lamar choking. I don’t disagree. I do disagree that the Ravens offensive gameplan in the first half was good. I thought it was bad. They could have PA’d us to death, but they got annihilated for not running in the postseason last year and did exactly what McD and co expected.

Great hire. If Johnson can develop Caleb to be what he was supposed to be, this should be a decade long marriage. Another year older and massive brain drain. its why I disagreed vehemently with @Simon about the Lions future. Would anyone be surprised if they are a WC team next year? I wouldn’t.

McD would be hired immediately imo. I don’t think the Bills would hire Sirianni, Taylor, Harbaugh or Campbell tbh.

The same would be said about McD tbh

Um I would call the Ravens offense being completely outcoached and out gameplanned in the first half a coaching failure. The Ravens in September had us down 21-10 in the third Q. We had the Ravens down 21-10 in the third Q. We took their lunch money in the first half. Just like they took ours in September. Harbaugh has never beaten an MVP caliber QB in the postseason with a 3 time MVP at QB.

I don’t agree with liability. i do think he has had pound for pound his worst year as a pro in some time. I love TJ. But he hasn’t been an All-Pro adjacent slot imo.

We are ready no doubt. This is the grizzled version of the 2020 squad. I think Milano is gonna be spying/delayed rushing Mahomes just like he did Lamar. Especially if the pass rush stinks.

It is a murderer’s row. Honestly, this game was gonna be a referendum on one of the two coaches and one of the two QB’s no matter what. If Josh/McD lost, they were gonna be 0-4 vs Mahomes/Lamar/Burrow in the last 4 years. With Lamar/Harbaugh losing, they are 0-3 against Josh/Mahomes in the postseason. It’s a hard hill to dig out of him. Hell, a good 80% of the mystique of Burrow/Taylor/Lou was that they have beat Josh and Mahomes in the postseason once each lol

The Pats contended for lots of SB’s with a poorly ranked overall defense with a huge TO advantage FWIW

There is a very strong case to firing Harbaugh. you keep wondering but going 0fer against similar caliber QBs in the playoffs is kinda exactly why the argument to fire both of them was pretty consistent.

Harbaugh because outside of winning a SB when Mitt Romney was running for President, he hasn’t done much?

I have a weird concern that's he's in the dog house or something. I'm getting shades of Mike Williams (RIP) and Marrone.

That's fine for packages or even 50%+. But we backed KC off earlier in the year with a couple of explosives to Cooper early and that's what this offense was missing tonight imo.

Lmao, McD gets credit for building the staff when they do good and and skates the blame when they gaffe. @MJS come point out the hypocrisy.

It's a good thing they don't decide who advances in the postseason based on how many rushing yards you allow. See you at the AFCCG
