PromoTheRobot Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Forgive me if this has been brought up. Like Beasley and the Cowboys, John Brown is facing his old team Sunday. Not only that, his role with the Ravens diminished when Jackson became the starter. I have to think Smoke will be extra motivated Sunday. 1
Buffalo716 Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Marcus Peter's is a ball hawk but is susceptible to double moves and shot plays Lull him to sleep with a bunch of square ins and comebacks then hit him with the double move over the top! 3
Rc2catch Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 I would guess it’s just another game for him. Baltimore didn’t do him dirty or anything. I’m guessing he was happy to get a half season of great stats to position himself for a good contract this year. Probably be more of a fun game for him vs a revenge kinda game. Good news is since Baltimore blitzes literally half their plays on defense Allen can have a monster game if he can complete anything over the top 4
Paul Costa Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Disagree they gave up on him. Definitely not a good fit for him once Lamar became starting QB. Smoke landed in a great spot!! Thank Jesus ? 3

PromoTheRobot Posted December 7, 2019 Author Posted December 7, 2019 I can't buy that he feels nothing. They moved on from him. 2
Rico Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) I think the Bills should be more motivated after last year's Week 1 beatdown than Smoke. Edited December 7, 2019 by Rico 1

Smoke landed in a great spot!! Thank Jesus ? Expand I agree with your overall point. HOWEVER... It's super weird to me to think that John Brown is somehow not a fit for the Ravens offense, but Hollywood Brown somehow is. They're both fast, shifty dudes that have insane speeds and are killer on drags and go routes. They even have the same last name. Does not compute. 2
Hapless Bills Fan Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 On 12/7/2019 at 11:30 PM, Paul Costa said: Disagree they gave up on him. Expand Well....they did use a 1st round pick to draft Marquise Brown, who has slightly better numbers than John Brown put up last year. 29 minutes ago, Paul Costa said: Definitely not a good fit for him once Lamar became starting QB. Smoke landed in a great spot!! Thank Jesus ? Expand It's probably unclear if they gave up on him, or if he simply felt he'd do better elsewhere where he could run a full route tree.
Steptide Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 If Brown wants to have a 10 catch, 150 yard day tomorrow, I'm all for it 2 1

Matt_In_NH Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 Lamar was a first time starter trying to make his way, there was no purposeful shift away from John Brown.

Locomark Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 Anyone who thinks he won’t be extra motivated tomorrow is crazy. Brown is due for at least 2 gash plays on them tomorrow. I figure he goes 6 for 80 with 2 of those play alone going for 40 yards.

Definitely not a good fit for him once Lamar became starting QB. Smoke landed in a great spot!! Thank Jesus ? Expand Just like in college, the majority of Lamar’s throws are relatively short and between the numbers. That’s why Tight Ends are such a big part of his passing game. To Baltimore’s credit they designed an offense where he doesn’t have to do much more than what did in college. Brown’s skill set probably doesn’t match up well in that scheme. We should be glad for that!

Victory Formation Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 Hopefully he plays fired up. It’d be nice if he caught a few TDs.

Expand Didn't the Ravens already release him though? Or told him he was free to explore free agency? Something along those lines, I may be mistaken. 1
