    Does anyone think the Lamar Jackson situation this year was strange?

    So we all know the Ravens were extremely unlucky IRT injuries this year. Still, despite being extremely banged up, this team was at one point one seed 2/3rds of the way through the season.

     

    they lost their final 6 to miss the postseason, 4 of those with LJ out with injury. Lamar’s injury? A bone bruise.

     

    So Lamar sits for their last 4, basically dooming a team that was 8-5, because he couldn’t play on a bone bruise? I get it, it was probably extremely painful, they probably weren’t going to go deep into the postseason but still.

     

    If it were Baker Mayfield who was in a similar situation, I think the media crushes him. Even if it was Aaron Rodgers, I think it’s a major topic. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone in the media even ask the question, was Lamar truly that hurt that they had to roll with “one read” Huntley and ruin their whole season?

     

    If I was a Ravens fan, I’d be kinda pissed. If I was a Ravens player, I’d be probably pretty annoyed. A lot of guys are banged up near the end of the year. Lamar with four weeks off couldn’t give it a go against the Steelers in a must win game? Even at 70%, wouldn’t he give them their best chance to win? 

    You forgot to mention that the Ravens forbid the media (allegedly) from videoing Lamar throwing to his receivers this post off season as well.

    Darn good, not bordering on elite.  
     

    Tannehill is a good Game Manager. 
    He usually won’t lose the game for them. 
     

    But Buffalo has Tannehills #. 
     


    Not stopping the run beat the Bills.  
     

    Do they though? He's been competent enough to win the last 2. I'd say for the time being we lost that number.

     

    Not stopping the run hurt but it was that Brown that killed us in the 2nd half last game.

    Not even CLOSE.

     

    The total and utter blind arrogance on this board when it comes to Tennessee is astounding. That is a darn good football team with a guy that has earned CoY IMO.

     

    6-1 against playoff teams this year. Swept the Colts. Gained back the 1 seed without key players on offense and something like a 4th string LT at times. They have found ways to win that DON'T hinge on Henry. Heck they even won with Bobby Hart starting it LT. They are by no means an easy out and with having a week off to heal up a bit are absolutely a dangerous team.

    Here's an idea: Can McKenzie play corner?

    Not a crazy idea but, I was thinking today how to minimize Hill with only using one guy, and I was thinking the fastest guy we have is McKenzie, and he has great hands.  If McKenzie could be taught to play corner in one week, seems Mahomes always throws to Hill when he is wide open, but when covered, or closely shadowed, he tends to look at other reads, and comes off Hill quickly, which if you watch the tape, trends into a hasty throw or scramble by the Chiefs signal caller.

     

    I know some will laugh at this as McK is showing great promise on offense, but for one game, is the idea that terrible?

     

    Thoughts?

     

    tim-

    McK is quick. Hill has All World speed. In a race down the field Hill would blow his doors off.

     

    Also, McK being NOT a CB is likely to bite on double moves easily especially against a polished duo like Mahomes and Hill. It would be expolited over and over. 

    OT Whose your biggest disappointment in the NFL this year?

    Don't know how so many people picked the Browns. This is who they are every year. This is who they will be next year, too. Last year they just waited an extra week for the Factory of Sadness to kick into production.

     

    For me, the biggest disappointments:

     

    1. Patriots. Spent what? $160M in guaranteed money this off season? Supposedly built an offense that Jones could prosper in with the 2 big name TEs. And went 1 and done with an embarrassing whimper.

     

    2. WFT. While I didn't consider them Super Bowl favorites I did think that their defense would carry them much further. 

     

    3. Colts. Yes, we all knew Wentz would Wentz. But we didn't think he'd Wentz THAT hard. With their OL and defense they should have made the playoffs.

    Normally, this would be a very wholesome story about supporting family, but he was seen with a crowd of fans, none of them wearing masks. Does this raise concerns about his availability for Saturday? He has confirmed that he is vaccinated, but I am sure the coaching staff isn't thrilled about this given the timing.

    Should still be a story about that...but you jist had to slant it. How many Jerry Sullivan posters do you have on your bedroom wall?

    So, Bill Belichick has had two games in his head coaching career that the opposition didn't need to punt and they were both against a Daboll offense.

     

    I think Daboll deserves some credit for that.

    He does. Absolutely. He also deserves "credit" long stretches of bad play calls and head scratching decisions.

     

    Contrary to popular belief things don't have to be 100% absolute. Both can be true.

    I can't lose.....

    I'm excited that KC and Buffalo are going to match up once again in the playoffs.  Many of you know I'm a huge Chiefs fan and clearly, I'll be rooting hard for KC to win the game.

     

    As far as I'm concerned, this is the big AFC matchup of the playoffs and the two teams are coming off big wins and playing well heading into this.

     

    Many of you know I showed up here after the trade and was kind of trolling around, and seeing how things from your perspective looked once Mahomes got rolling.  When Allen was drafted, I was a fan, I was hopeful he'd be a good player, but I was very clear that I didn't think he'd ever develop...and I was very wrong about that....

     

    It's been alot of fun to be a small part of your awesome community, and it's been alot of fun to see Allen become the great player that he is.  I've come to really like the Bills as my 2nd team over the past few seasons.  

     

    If the Bills win this game, I'll be pulling for them to go all the way.  Your fans, your city and your team deserve it.

     

    If KC wins....I am sure this won't be the last time our teams meet up in a big, high stakes game....and regardless of the outcome, I hope we get to see these QB's on the field together many more times in the years to come.

     

     

    Are you Ice Bowl's cousin, by chance?
