HappyDays Posted December 2 Posted December 2 (edited) 22 minutes ago, HappyDays said: I still say the way to beat the Ravens is focus on shutting down the run first and take your chances with the ball in Lamar's hands on 2nd/3rd and long, ideally clogging up the middle of the field. Lamar's going to make some big plays occasionally but it's better than letting them slowly bleed your defense out over long punishing drives. And they don't have the outside WRs to really punish you for that strategy. I was curious so I checked - including today's game, Derrick Henry has been held below 100 rushing yards in 7 games this year. The Ravens are 2-5 in those games... Interestingly both wins were against the Bengals who we know have an abysmal pass defense. So I now feel extremely confident in what I said - sell out to keep Henry below 100 yards and the rest of the offense isn't good enough to beat you. Edited December 2 by HappyDays 1 Quote

gonzo1105 Posted December 2 Posted December 2 Its funny how rooting interests work. If we somehow become the 1 Seed we would want the Ravens to win more and if we're the two seed we'd want them to lose more as long as they don't fall in the 7th spot lol. 1 Quote
NyQuil Posted December 2 Posted December 2 So happy this dumbass show is on FOX instead of overtime. 1 Quote

I don't think they match up well with the Steelers or the Chiefs. Ironically though they are probably the team in the AFC that matches up with the Bills the best. Quote

Light boxes won’t get it done against that group, unless you’ve got a Ted Washington on the DL. 1 Quote

Gotta pad those MVP stats. Quote
scuba guy Posted December 2 Posted December 2 Wow 6 min after the game is done and zero fans for the ravens left in the stadium 1 Quote

T.E. Posted December 2 Posted December 2 A guy with Henry's mileage is probably not going to get stronger 5, 6, 7 weeks more into the season. 1 1 Quote

The majority of the yardage was taken up by Jackson's run. Short left, short left, short middle, short middle, short right. Even with the time outs it bled the clock. 1 Quote

dma0034 Posted December 2 Posted December 2 Man I almost pulled off the most improbably Fantasy comeback. If the Bucs kicker would have made that kick. I was down by like 20 points and then Lamar got his garbage points and the Bucs kicker hit a 51 yard to tie that game I was only down by 1. But he missed that FG so I'm probably cooked lol Quote
