The Ravens defense was a mirage against the run. Faced the least attempts in the NFL but was 21st in YPA allowed.

Ying and yang. They're built to stop the pass and got exposed on the run. The old pendulum swing. When everyone goes light, go heavy. Hard to do it all. Then again not everyone has Derek Henry.

You had to think going into that game that our tape would be used as the main ingredient to the strategy to take out the Ravens. Ten also prefers zone schemes so it was a perfect fit. This is a really good reflection of our defensive staff and personnel to boot.

Not just less than 100 yards; he’s a combined 15/29 for 150ish yards in the playoffs.

 

Can’t win in the playoffs throwing for less than 100 YPG and having a completion percentage of 50. ?

Ryan Tannehill would disagree, but he has a monster at RB that is shredding defenses.

As soon as I saw how the Titan's DEs were playing the pass rush--not selling out to get the sack, but to contain Lamar in the pocket, I knew they had studied the Bills game film.   Also having a LB spying on him once he came off his initial reads.    Despite his 100-plus rushing yards, he never got free for a killer scramble when defensive discipline broke down.

 

Not every team will be able to execute that, but many will now try.   It will be interesting to see if Jackson can improve his sideline throwing accuracy and become more of a "full field" passing threat going forward...

difference was in our game we forced Allen to throw for 39 times...into that wind. 

 

Daboll has constantly put Allen in horrible positions all season and fans wonder why our offense is so bad. our failure to run the ball effectively this season cost us a division title and possibly playing in the AFC championship game. 

 

We threw a top 3 defense down the drain

This is exactly right, DE's are the size of LB's now, and LB's are the size that used to be considered "tweeners." Defenses are setup to optimize speed to defend against passing attacks. There's no wonder why Baltimore had the most rushing yards ever in NFL history, and why San Fran's power running game is so successful. 

 

Here's to the Bills getting another solid RB and reducing Josh's # of passes per game next year.

Main difference is that titans got out to early 14-0 lead. Bills never lead in that Ravens  game
