Did you not see that they can pull out the required level whenever necessary?
Did you miss their last 2 games against the Texans and Steelers, and then the Texans again?
Your kind of talk would only make sense if they wouldnt have won 3 SBs the last 5 years..

They’ve been doing that for like 5 years though. At a certain point it isn’t pulling it out of your ass. They know what they’re doing.

Fair enough, I just have a hunch that it ends this year, I put a thousand on it

Re: NFL Football 2024-25 Season
Really nice win for the Bills. On a neutral site I would favor them slightly next week, but because it's at Arrowhead I think it's a tossup.
Ravens dont have that much to be disappointed about. In those conditions, things happen. A lot of drops in both games today, not just bc the ball is slick but because when your brain has to consciously think about your footing in slick conditions when making a catch, you dont have full attention on your hands. It's a real thing. In dry weather Mark Andrews makes that catch. Lamar's fumble was also fluky, and the center takes some blame too for the bad snap that led to him having to scramble. They also played without Zay Flowers. To me this has nothing to do with any Lamar Jackson postseason weakness. Just a close game on the road in bad weather that didnt go their way. Thats all.

Not the fact they Andrews fumbled the ball when ravens were driving? Which resulted in Bills scoring 3 the next drive. Or the fact Andrews dropped an easy 2pt conversion catch to tie the game? It was Lamar first half turnovers lol Yall say anything

I wouldnt say the punch-out was particularly Andrews fault, but thats indeed what turned the game.
Ravens running game was working at that point, they scored their last 3 drives, they could have taken the lead, that punch-out gave the Bills the mathematical edge to close it.
Im fairly certain the Bills could have driven the ball up for a FG with 1:30 remaining and 2 TOs, feel bad for Andrews that he will now take the headlines for the loss.

I mean it was both..
Lamar had 2 bad turnovers that were inarguably his fault. And the Bills scored both times I think off of them.

Re: NFL Football 2024-25 Season
It's worth remembering the Bills led the league in turnover margin. That's what they do. Their defense cant stop people moving the ball but they do get a lot of takeaways. And the offense kept their own turnovers way down this year.
It takes two sides of the ball to win the turnover battle. You can point to Lamar and Mark for their turnovers, sure, but you can just as easily ask why the Ravens defense didnt create any. The Bills may not have marched all over them every drive, but the Ravens D really didnt play a particularly disruptive game either. I dont remember them even having a sack, maybe they got 1 or 2 at most. And thats it.
So, it's a team game. The Ravens team got outplayed by the Bills team. That simple.

Re: NFL Football 2024-25 Season
I normally would enjoy piling on for Lamar coming up short in the playoffs, but I can't really fully blame Lamar for this one. Yes he had the 2 turnovers, which lead to 7 points from Buffalo, but when they needed him the most, he lead them right down the field for the score. Shame Mark Andrews decided to make two boneheaded mistakes that ended up being costly.

I dont really think the Ravens team got outplayed by the Bills team. It came down to 1 play by 1 individual.

It’s a playoff game in poor conditions where everyone is trying to make plays. Placing blame solely on one person is silly. There were a lot of mistakes made. Lamar still drove the ravens down the field to not only score a td but to tie. But we are highlighting first half turnovers as the reason they lost? Cmon.
And no the interception didn’t result in any points scored by Buffalo.

I really feel home field advantage won that game. Baltimore isn't used to the snow the way Buffalo is, you saw a lot of mishandling of the ball on the Ravens side, bunch of dropped passes, fumble by Lamar that resulted in a TD, fumble and a dropped pass by Andrews. Lamar only had 9 turnovers all regular season, he had 2 last night.
