I’m not writing him off, I just think there’s nothing in his college career that indicates he’ll be a sure number one receiver. I see him as a potential complementary piece, not a number one. I think many people are assuming he’ll become a number one.

I think people have always hoped for Keon to become a player that he was unlikely to ever be.

It will be interesting to see how Kalen DeBoer responds to this Bama loss. I’ve never been sold on him being a smart coach. Dude almost gave away a Washington win in the playoffs by not knowing to take a knee. Those type of things matter at Bama. The SEC has a thin margin of error.

I agree, but I could see Miami/Cal being a decent game. It wouldn’t shock me to see Miami lose, or win by a thin margin. I think Miami is overrated as usual. Cam Ward has been great, and he’s the main reason Miami is improved, but I don’t trust Miami to win when the QB has a week where he isn’t spectacular.

I agree, I’m just saying, everyone likes to mock McDaniels for not commanding respect, but you have Reid running a team that’s out of control in their behavior. It’s his ability as an OC that makes them win games.

Travis Kelce shoved Reid on the sideline. That doesn’t seem like an old school leader who demands respect.

You’re probably correct in a lot of this, but I don’t think the average fan can assess leadership ability from sideline television images. The most important leadership happens behind closed doors. He might be a terrible leader, but I don’t know it’s that easy to say.

I think people want the Vince Lombardi speeches, but today’s game is more about X’s and O’s. McDaniel is good at that part of the game, and he’s now coaching a backup QB. Teams don’t usually win with a backup. That’s not solely on the coach. I don’t think he’s great, but I think the leadership/pep talk stuff is overrated. This generation of players isn’t going to respond to Kneut Rockne speeches. It’s more about players liking their head coach, avoiding a toxic environment. It seems that team likes McDaniel plenty well enough.

It stinks on principle considering his contract, but this doesn’t change our defense.

I had issues with our coaching last night, but I will say it’s easier to win big when you’re allowed to hit like it’s 1978. The Ravens are given a lot of freedom by the NFL to play tough nosed football. I was amazed at some of the non calls.

Yeah, I agree about the obvious run looks. If I recall correctly, we had a run with Mack Hollins as our only wideout on the field. I’m willing to sellout to stop the run if Hollins is the only WR on the field.

I knew it was going to be a long night when McD punted on fourth and two from the fifty during the first possession. I understand it’s risky, but it showed we were prepared to coach conservatively against this opponent.

I don’t want to cry about it, but I can’t imagine the refs being cool with Mahomes taking some of those hits last night.

I don’t disagree, but this loss was a complete meltdown. It’s almost futile to point out individuals imo. No one was very good tonight.

Why are the Ravens still throwing? The Harbaugh’s never fail to amaze me.

Lots of people disappointed in Hamiln and Bass. I can’t even get to the point of caring about that. Our issues tonight extend well beyond individual players.

Kicking a field goal was pretty lame to begin with.

I agree, but the Ravens push the envelope more than typical. There’s been plenty of hits that would draw flags for other teams.

Yep, he’s the type of dude you need to make the choice to just force the ball to.

I really don’t even want to see Allen back in.

That’s been lost in the terrible play call. The Ravens are allowed to play more dirty than the typical NFL team.

How was that not roughing the passer though? In today’s NFL, that gets called.

Brady got Allen hurt. That’s as bad as any OC could do to this team.

That trick play was very unnecessary in that spot.

As bad as the Coleman drop was, that catch was just as good.
