Big Turk Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 1 hour ago, Donuts and Doritos said: A Ravens loss & they are both 11-4 next week playing for 1st place, which motivates them. Makes next week more meaningful for both teams. Huh? It's the same situation. Are you dense? If the Ravens lead by a game going into it and Miami wins head to head they are even but Miami wins the tie breaker. Also this isn't really how it works in pro sports.

He saving him for NFC opponents while Purdy gets to test himself against the best AFC defense which he wouldn't have to worry about until the Superbowl I think we're just being unfairly harsh to Purdy. We've seen fans of other team criticize Josh for similar games, claim "he only got good when Diggs got there" (Trayvon even suggested the same thing), had analysts mock the idea that he was as good as Mahomes (after people hyped him up), blah blah blah. Purdy was taken as the 262nd pick overall, playing in his 2nd year... No matter what anyone says, no matter the talent around them, few QBs have been as successful as he's been while also putting up those numbers. We've seen "game managers" do well, even winning Super Bowls, but Purdy's done more than that. MVP? Hell no. But he deserves credit, bad game aside. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF was clearly unfocused tonight all over the field and up and down the sideline. I think you'll see a very different team mentally when they're not playing with house money on Christmas night. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll see a very different team mentally when they're not playing with house money on Christmas night. I tend to agree. I also think this preview helps Shanahan more than it helps Harbaugh. The Ravens made a lot of great plays, but they "only" won by 14 with a +5 turnover differential. I don't expect that to happen often, and you can't count on those bobbled/dropped/tipped passes to all land perfectly in your defenders' hands like they did tonight. Just think of how many would-be INTs Dak could've had against the Bills. I can remember at least 3 times a defender had a play on the ball but dropped it, and that's not counting tips/drops that landed safely on the ground. The Ravens caught em all! 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope they haven't used it all up, nor is next week a come down game from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
