njbuff Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Who have the Ravens played that is anywhere near the level of talent at the QB position like Josh Allen? This isn't the 2019 Josh Allen vs Baltimore version folks. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be worried in greater than 20 mph winds, but winds in the teens are absolutely fine to throw in... especially for Josh Allen, Aaron Rodgers, Patrick Mahomes types.

FLFan Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Straight Hucklebuck said: It's why Mahomes and Rodgers are the gold standard right now (and Brady had a massive year too). Mahomes, another year with 5,000+ yards of production, 40 total TDs, 309 ypg passing. Rodgers had 51 combined TDs this year, 5 interceptions. FIVE. So Lamar is one of several high end QBs in this league, and is among the best when passing is combined with the running, but other than rushing yards, he's not doing things or hitting milestones that have never been achieved. Lamar is the best running back in the NFL. He can also throw the ball around some. Edited January 14, 2021 by FLFan Spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, they are not stopping the Bills offense. He does have some good points on attacking the Bills defense. The Colts had a good game plan that almost worked. Run the ball, control the clock. I see the Ravens trying that same approach. I remember the game against them last year. They were pretty good at mixing up runs inside and outside. A lot of misdirection. I expect a tough game. I'd love to see the Bills jump out to an early lead, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I don't understand why Simms keeps saying the Ravens are "the hottest team in football" after just one game against the Titans where they only scored 20 points... The Texans and Packers put up 38 and 40 points respectively on the Titans the previous 2 weeks.... No one was calling the Ravens the hottest team the previous week. It's strange that this narrative popped up after that so-so Titans game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills have won SEVEN in a row. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL 10 mph is Windy? The average breeze ion WNY is 8mph 9 months out of the year. 10-15 mph is no factor Believe 20 mph is where ball flight of a spiral might vary. And the wind always swirls in the bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say Mahomes but obviously it didn’t workout well for the ravens, And I think it will be the same outcome against Josh Allen Go Bills !!!!

The Titans had the 24th ranked scoring defense this year, averaging 27 points against and 32 over the last 3 games. The Ravens offense underperformed.

But yards are yards and he's not heads and shoulders above Mahomes, Rodgers, Allen, Herbert or any other high upside thrower. he wins games. end of discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's strange that this narrative popped up after that so-so Titans game. It’s because LJ finally got the playoff monkey off his back and their defense completely stopped the second most potent offense (in terms of yards) in the league.
