He said as much on the Fitz and Whit podcast this week

They had a little segment on inside the NFL going over Henry running all over the Steelers. It was crazy watching Watt just crash into Henry at the mesh point every single time just ignoring where the ball was. It was just crazy to watch. Belichick was stunned, saying it's basic fundamental defense to watch the QB and the ball before committing. They had other examples where guys just looked like they were on drugs. Clark said reviewing the film he's never seen as bad of a performance by a team on run defense. Have no idea what the Steelers were doing that game but 1) it gave a training video of what NOT to do and 2) I think it artificially boosted the 'unstoppable' narrative of the Ravens run game going into this game

That's the thing though - my point was after all the non-stop Lamar MVP talk the last few weeks by talking heads, I've seen so many of the same people who were touting him as MVP also now saying the key to beating the Ravens is stopping Henry. It's some kind of bizarro world where they've gone on and on how he is the best player on the planet, but in analyzing the game say Henry is the most important person to stop

It is kinda crazy though after all media blitz in the last few weeks crowning Lamar MVP so many talking heads this week talking more about having to stop Henry than anyone else. I just watched on Inside the NFL Chris Long said you have to stop Henry - the best player on the field

Josh tells Paul Bunyan to hold his beer Didn't think it was possible for me to love Josh even more - until I read this article This part literally made me laugh out loud just because of the absurdidty - just picture it 😄

I would guess he probably went outside after practice to field some punts

If Anderson doesn't go do we think they still run as much 6 OL packages with someone else or that is mostly off the table? That would be huge

Does the hymn to the goddess Artemis sound like the Shout song?

One small observation - Rapp on One Bills Live yesterday was barefoot 😛 Presumably a member of the Church of Mack

I feel the exact same way. The Raven players/coaches just seem so overconfident, all the 'disrespect' doesn't even need to be manufactured - it's all been put out there from all over on a (very full) platter for the players to feast on, the weather being the same as the Patriot Perfect Playoff Game (all I can picture is Lamar huddled on the bench in his ski mask and parka thinking "why am I here"). It's like the perfect storm for a glorified, favored, overconfident team to come into an opposing hostile environment against a super motivated focused team and get their a$$ whooped then wonder "what the hell just happened?!"

Feel like we dodged a bullet it wasn't the Buffalo McBoatFaces

She's actually a Seahawks fan

And no Josh thumbnail 👍

I said the same thing earlier in the thread - on RPO plays the Steelers every time just went to tackle Henry with Lamar standing right there (ie., Lamar wasn't in free space and juking and hard to hit). If they are going to run the RPO destroy Lamar at the mesh point whether he hands off or not

Ravens should sign Derek Anderson - 4d chess

Bills D reacting to the whole world saying they are incapable of stopping the run this week

I would prefer "before he starts questioning his life decisions"

lol - this is the first thought that came into my head 😛

I was just watching the podcast and came here to post this when I saw it 😛

Was gonna say wonder if there's going to be a prop bet on if he keeps his shirt on during it 😛

My least favorite type of poster is the "Opposing Fan Coming In Peace To Talk Some Football!" - it always devolves into lectures on why you are wrong about their team (and your team), and subsequent pissing contests which end up dominating and lowering the quality of the whole conversation

As others have said too - if they are going to score, better for them to score quicker and get the ball back in Josh's hands than have them dominate TOP with long sustained drives. Sell out to stop the run - if they complete some passes so be it, and ideally 'bend don't break' and stiffen in the RZ to make them kick some FGs

Now I can't get this image out of my brain

Crazy that he doubled down on it "Just stating the facts" - what is he, 12?
