They only had 1 minute… If they were serious about coming back then Lamar would have been pushing the ball down the field, but that might have risked a pick so they did like 5 passes just past the line of scrimmage instead. Gotta pad those MVP stats.

Okay, this stat padding is annoying me…

Down two scores and they are making 5 yard passes, why?

I think you mean drawing the Chiefs in the first round

Nantz is so over Romo’s BS, lol

Ravens can’t play from behind. They better hope they never fall behind in the playoffs…

TD on this drive would make things very uncomfortable for the Ravens.

I guess the script here is to call super soft defensive holding on 3rd down when the Ravens are in trouble.

At what point do you bring in a replacement for Tucker? I know the dude is an institution, but he’s going to cost them games.

To me his arm looks great situationally. When the run game is clicking and his receivers are getting open he looks great. I agree he is making some throws this season I’ve never seen him throw before. But if the Ravens get down in the playoffs against a good team (and usually all the teams in the playoffs are good teams). I have zero confidence he can use his arm to throw his team back into the game. I don’t feel that way about Mahomes, Allen or Burrow.

Sad day where people are holding their breath when Tucker is kicking a 50 yarder. Dude used to be automatic.

The TE made a great play to run back towards the QB going through DB contact to make the catch. It was super risky, unless Jackson knows that player will do that sort of thing every time.

Lamar Jackson today has thrown to wide open players and one prayer that was as likely to be picked as caught for the TD.

Exhibit A just now for how wide open the Ravens guys are.

How are the Ravens pass catchers so wide open all the time?

I think the Steelers are easier to understand. They are well rounded and way better coached than the Bengals. But...the Bengals are a true wild card. They have the offensive weapons to put up a huge point total. Not to mention Burrow just seems to understand how to slice and dice McDermott's defense. Just a lot more variance and harder to know who we'll be facing with the Bengals.

If one of the Jaguars players ripped off that guys helmet and started punching I wouldn't blame them.

I think rooting for the Steelers. I’d like the Bengals dead and buried.

Refs absolutely handed Georgia that game. Basically gifted them a TD drive on penalties. Unlike the NFL, favoritism for big schools vs small schools is pretty believable. They pay the bills after all.

Less than 2 feet of snow is not going to move a game.

You can’t hear a whistle, but the line judge is very visible on the video running into the play and signaling false start. I’m not sure what the rule is on signaling a penalty without a whistle. It’s all moot anyway, because that guy was going to miss the FG anyway.

I guess you are the weatherman…

I really don’t remember the Pats having a lot of luck like this winning games for them. The tuck rule game is the only obvious one I can think of. I guess the Falcons deciding to choke the Super Bowl away was kind of lucky, but that wasn’t a single play it was like 60 plays.

We shall see if they can continue to pull a rabbit out of a hat. I think they lose 2 more games and finish 14-3. They still might be the #1 seed anyway, because I could see the Bills dropping 2 as well (Rams and Lions possibly). I think Bills, Ravens, and Steelers would definitely beat them in the playoffs.

Record is not all that matters when you are trying to predict future outcomes. There are many examples of teams with great records not reflective of their play at this point in the season that fall apart or predictably get bounced early in the playoffs. The Eagles last year, the Vikings the year they beat the Bills in OT, the Steelers when they had washed Big Ben leading them. That's just off the top of my mind, there are more. I know they are the masters of the one score game, but they aren't skillfully defeating their opponents this year, they are relying on dumb luck and in a couple of games favorable calls from the refs at crucial moments. You think the Steelers will mess up and give the game to the Chiefs at the end of the game? No way, they are well coached too and will win if it comes down to that.
