I think this Ravens team would’ve beaten the Chiefs if they had met in the playoffs. Notice how that’s all past tense? Bills will take care of that problem for the Chiefs.

I'm not sure about that. The Chiefs are a bad matchup for the Ravens. The Chiefs are great against the run. They are weak in the secondary but it would mean Lamar would have to beat them by passing in the cold. Then you have Mahomes and the Chiefs Offense that has been low-key heating up. I think the Vikings are the absolute nightmare team for the Ravens.

At this point the Ravens and Eagles have to be the favorites to meet in the Super Bowl.

Did you watch the first game today lol

Texans are going to get smoked by whoever they play in the wildcard round. Hopefully it's the chargers. They probably have the best chance of the WC teams to beat KC, though none of them really have much of a chance.

I think the Ravens are the most complete team in the AFC.

I think theyd lose to the Chiefs in the playoffs by multiple scores rn

[SCBills]

It’s honestly comical how wide open Lamar’s receiving targets are game in / game out. 
 

Some of it is due to buying time, but a lot of it is drop back, intermediate throw … wide open.

Depends on the officials. Nobody loses if the zebras don’t want them to.

This sounds a lot like last Christmas.

Stroud has 3 or less seconds to throw with that line and he's constantly acting like he has all day.

He made a lot of hay last year bailing pockets and hitting Collins down field

 

He has a lot to prove yet for me

He also has an adversion to throwing the ball away when heading to the sideline. Rather take the loss and sack

Yep

[Big Turk]

Houston looks like the worst team in the NFL today. Just God Awful.

[Maine-iac]

Guy was open 2 or 3 seconds before Stroud threw it.  Probably had an easy first down and more if he throws that on time.

They would because Lamar plays his worst games in the playoffs.  He is the anti-thesis of a player who takes his game to a new level in the playoffs. He takes it to a new low instead. Repeatedly every year.

I'm watching a little behind. This is a Super Bowl-level production. Netflix is throwing money at this thing.

Expand  

I notice the picture quality is amazing.  On the local affiliates (over Dish network) they use a lot of digital video compression and when players run there is so much movement in the background that the image can't hold up and blurs a little, then cleans up when action stops.  Everything is crystal clear 4K at all times on the Netflix feed.

Not really...the only thing you see is Lamar playing his worst football when it matters most. That's the most consistent thing he has done in his career. 9 TDs and 9 INTs in the playoffs is basically replacement level quarterbacking.

 

I'm not sure where he ranks in all time QB rating in the playoffs since the list I am looking only shows top 50, and he ain't in it.

We will see!

Texans = Dolphins

 

They beat the tomato cans of the NFL. It took Josh Allen's worst day for them to win with a walk off 59 yarder. The Lions tried to give them the game with 5 picks and they still lost. 

 

Their wins: Colts x2, Bears, Jags x2, Cowboys, Dolphins, Patriots and sadly the Bills
