On two of the Ravens TD drives, our D was out of position and gave up the long balls. I don't blame that on McD, our D was just out of position and played too light and never really looked around at what the Ravens WR's were up to and never speculated on the routes. The 3rd quarter was unforgivable. We had the opportunity to close the door on Baltimore and put them down 3 scores coming out of halftime and failed to do so, letting the Ravens hang around. They had their opportunity at that moment to put their stamp on that game and change the narrative but played too soft and allowed the Ravens to make a game of it. I guarantee you that if we don't come out swinging and punch KC in the mouth early and often, we are going home.

I'm not sure if our D will get many turnovers against KC.....they are much too experienced for that, however, i think if ever there was a time to completely open up our O playbook, Sunday is it. This is the game to not hold back and just throw it all out there.

I've actually tried to use this as a pickup line at the bar a few times, with very little success..........surprisingly.

I've said it before and i'll say it again, i absolutely hate Ohio state and ND, so i really didn't give a rats *** who won the CFP this year. ND at least tried to make a game of it.

I can't really see many turnovers against KC.......they are much too disciplined for that. I hope our D has a solid plan in place to just be able to grit it out and not have to rely on turnovers to win this one.

Listen, i like Lamar, i just don't like the media narrative surrounding him and the Ravens......... and that's the biggest gripe that i have about that.

The "talking heads" this morning are still going on about how the Ravens were 2 points away from taking the game into OT, never even considering how the Bills still had 1:33 on the clock with 2 timeouts and could easily have taken the ball down to FG range to seal the game away. It's maddening.........truly maddening.

I think everyone knows what's at stake for this one and i think the Bills will dig deep and find a way.

McD going for the FG in that position was the right call......i hated the idea of a FG over a TD, but if the Bills didn't get the points there, then the Ravens would have went down the field and won. McD is learning when to be aggressive and when to just take the points. I have no problem with it.

I'm just sitting in my office at work and that juicy nugget of revelation just hit me.........like, i'm talking hit on the head with a hammer revelation (it actually never even occurred to me until just this minute).

I think if anyone can get the most out of Williams and Odunze, it's Johnson.......that should be a good fit for the Bears.

Think about it, guys.........we win one more game and we're going to the SB. Just let that sink in.

Every "talking head" during the game yesterday were just baffled that the Ravens went away from Henry in the 2nd half........he was just starting to roll and getting a full steam of head, carrying guys downfield on his back. I'm sure that if the Ravens were committed to running the ball in the 2nd half, I don't think we would have stopped much. Lucky for us, the Ravens went away from Henry and relied on Lamar's arm.

And that's true, this years Bills team is as steady as ever. They also aren't straying too far from the system that seems to be working for them, however, i'm sure KC is taking notes.

So, i completely hammered my system with zinc, vitamin C, Vicks vapor-rub, cough medicine, a concoction of herbal tea/honey/lemon/whiskey, etc.........i've just about got it out of my system in about one week. That's the fastest i've ever recovered from having a cold.

The refs will curse us all with the Mahomo voodoo magic.

This is probably the most logical and most coherent thing i've read on the boards today. Bravo, my man.........bravo.

............maybe our FO didn't get the memo or perhaps they misunderstood the assignment?!?

You know that if we attempted even a mild downfield threat, it would have softened up the D and allowed more lanes for the RB's and create even a facade of the potential to lob it at any given point.........as it was, we were completely one dimensional. Albeit it paid off, however, this won't work against KC.

The only reason JA didn't dump it back to Cook is cause the defender had his arms tied up. I firmly believe that if his arms were free, that ball is getting dumped back to Cook with a disastrous result. Re-watch it and tell me im wrong.

I remember watching that game on tv real time and even though it was the Cowboys, i felt bad for him. The best part is Staubach's face after the drop...........classic.

My god, could you imagine the fan reaction and outrage if that happened?!?.........no matter if the Ravens had scored to win the game or not, the fans would be calling for heads.

The overall rivalry including regular and post season is indeed a coin flip, however, for just the post season, it is a complete dismantling and clinic for KC........it would be good to finally change the narrative this year.

Doesn't matter to me as long as any team other than KC wins the Super Bowl.........i don't think i could listen to another year of Nick Wright's Mahome's ball washing, tea bagging nonsense.
