Game ball for the D!!!

Did Lamar put on a Huntley jersey?

Bass is a damn fine kicker and I'm very glad he's ours

If the Ravens end this game with 3 points they're going to be talking about somebody else's D tomorrow.

Deep balls just are NOT working in this wind. Don't know why we keep trying them...

I'd be find with a dink and dunk with runs, conservative 9 minute drive ending in a TD

They are punting. That's all that matters - why down your own team?

How did the ball get hiked 5 ft over his head?

Those are backbreaker plays for the other team. Thought they be tied. Now down 14. Yeah baby!

glad we deferred!

I don't know why but I was a lot more tensed up before last weeks game. Kind of feeling calm today. Seems weird.

Gonna watch some Mandalorian. Looking forward to him kicking azz in a new episode later tonight.

Ha, that's funny. By the time a dome could get agreed upon and built in Buffalo, JA will be an old QB.

No, because the deeper you get into the playoffs the more amped up everyone is at the beginning of the game. So you often see 3 and outs or maybe 1 first down then a 3 and out - on both teams - due to the defense being so jacked up and the offense prone to a few erratic passes. I think the odds of going on a nice sustained scoring drive are better coming out of the half when everybody's calmed down.

So we WANT the team that can come from behind with a 28 point deficit?

I heard the same kind of talk but it was "they aren't losing to the over the hill Rivers - case closed". It was too close for comfort. You can't take anything for granted, at the next step in the playoffs all opponents will be tough.

I see now why so many wanted Schittsburg 😄

So I checked a Ravens board and basically it's about a third wanting Buffalo, a third wanting KC (both of those of course based on who they think would be a better matchup) and the other third like some on this board - saying it doesn't matter because they can beat anybody so bring it on. Seems their biggest problem is bringing themselves to cheer for either the Browns or Steelers tonight 😄

I'd bet some of them are posting about how many on this board are afraid of facing them.

I agree. You'd almost think the ST coach would have a rule: "No running the ball out of the end zone - period". The odds of getting a really good return beyond the 25 seem small, and the odds of running one back for a TD are miniscule. Plus the risk factor you mentioned and the chance to fumble when being gang tackled. I wonder if anyone has run the numbers on it.

Bass be badass!!

He lives a little dangerously on some of those plays where he's getting pressure, but I have 0 complaints. Once in a while you're going to have something like that happen. It is super seldom and he makes so many great plays under pressure it's well worth it. I just gotta say Josh - I love you just the way you are!

Any playoff team ought to be able to get a first down on third and short by running the football. I can't blame them for trying it, it's the poor success rate that was concerning. We had some 2nd and one or two that I thought would have been great downs for throws, but we ran and got stuffed on a couple of those too.

It's always damn hard to "enjoy" a game that is tight and comes down to the last play. They're nerve-wracking as hell - but now that I'm calming down it's GREAT that they got the win and avoided coming up on the short end of the stick. We live to fight another day! I do hope we can win the next one without so much stress though...

They lost 3 sure points on the 4th and goal go for it. Then they lost 1 sure point by going for the 2 pt conversion instead of a PAT. That's 4 sure points. If everything else had played out the same they would have won by 1. I think Reich is going to take a ton of heat for those two poor decisions. We were lucky he made those calls.
