KingBoots8 Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago We went to the wire with 2 AFC North teams this year, and just when we seemed to be down for the count the team rallies and pulls off the improbable. Basically, once we hit about 8 mins left in the game we flipped a switch and went to war. Against the Ravens we had big stops by the defense, and Josh Allen going off for 2 rush and 1 pass TDs, 251 yards, and set up the game winning field goal. Against the Bengals we had a Pick 6 and another INT by the Defense. Josh goes on to score a 40 yard rush TD, and throws another TD to Hawes on 4th and 3. I personally think the Ravens game gets the edge, but just barely. Both games are incredible moments both on offense and defense. We had a few missing pieces for the Bengals game, but still got the W. I just think the lights were “brighter” for the Ravens game and our boys didn’t blink. I’d prefer to blow out teams and never worry about 4th quarter comebacks, but I’ll take the wins however they come. What are your thoughts? Quote
Kelly to Allen Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago (edited) The week 1 game validated everything about Allen vs Lamar debate. After that game the debate was over Edited 11 hours ago by Kelly to Allen 1 Quote

Ravens at full strength week 1 was great. But I’ll give this week the nod. Burrow was 2-0 against the Bills in his career, has been to a Super Bowl in the past, Bengals were 3-0 when he played this year and they said multiple times during the broadcast that if they won this game they would be favorites every game going forward to a potential AFC North title. Not to mention a lot was made about Burrow being 12-0 in December leading up to this game. We just ended the Bengals season and wiped away Burrow’s spotless record while the Bengals were “full strength” (concussed Tee never leaving the game) 2 Quote
Bills aPHILLYate Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago I have to say Cincy. This was one of those exorcise your demons games. We've had success against Baltimore on every level. Watching Cincy march down the field opening drive and score almost at will afterwards was demoralizing to an extent. It seemed like they were on the verge of making yet another statement against us and we just had to watch it happen. I legitimately shed a tear on that Benford pick 6 lol. I was that emotionally invested in just getting a lead. I think this one meant 10x more and potentially unlocks another level in Josh Allen. 1 1 Quote
Fleezoid Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago I hate giving props to these comebacks. They're great, but both games were an absolutely debacle of defensive game planning/mistakes/bad tackling. For crying out loud....start better!! 1 1 Quote
Southern McButterpants Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago I think the Ravens game gets the edge. I literally sat, dumbfounded, for 15 minutes after that game. Today’s game was incredible, but not at that level. 1 Quote
H2o Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago The Ravens game. They, the Ravens, were at full strength week 1. Josh stepped out of the phone booth in the 4th qtr, Ed O comes up huge, and the rest is history. Quote
SectionC3 Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago Today, I thought, was crazier in terms of swings in win percentage. The Ravens probably was more improbable. Both were great. Maybe it's recency bias. I was dumbfounded by the turn of events in the stadium today. The win against the Ravens was a bit more inevitable in terms of minutes and second in the stadium. This thing was a nail biter right up until Josh picked up the first down. Quote

The thing that I liked about this game, it had the same snowy conditions as the Playoff loss. It's almost like going back in time and getting a chance to reset that timeline 1 1 1 Quote
