Bro did you miss the Ravens/49ers game or something? Lamar blew Purdy out with lesser weapons.

 

This guy was Cam before this year. Baltimore literally gave him a TE on offense and literally nothing else. Now they finally put a good WR around him and the offense took off. People seem to ignore the talent around Lamar before this year. He was that offense for years. Amazing what putting good skill players around him does to your team.

 

Again lol at putting Purdy with Mahomes. Like cmon bro are yall even watching these games. Lamar spanked Purdy already.

Man these takes are strange.  Lamar vs Purdy is silly.  It is a team sport.  Lamar didn’t spank Purdy.  You talk about putting good skill players around him while bashing Young all season.  All over the place.  You are very reactionary with your opinions while you later say you predicted something completely different.

If you can't knock Mahomes out this year, when is it going to happen? This was Allen's best opportunity. The same goes for the rest of the league. The Chiefs have screwed up Mahomes' and Andy's receivers this year. You know Andy isn't going to allow it to happen again. 

Evidently there's legit speculation that this might be Reid's last ride.

You may want to look at what has happened to the regular season winners when they meet the team they beat in the SB.

You understand that is regular season? Weaker defenses & good QBs who aren't clutch can be taken advantage of in wild card & divisional rounds, but when the best defenses are left standing & it's an elimination game don't ever expect a blow out. These coaches do not risk their players or clutch plays for a regular season win when they're in the driver seat.

If anything, the Ravens gave more away in that win & it'll come back to bite them. Do you believe the Ravens will be the exception if they face the 49ers?

I understand Purdy is a game manager who has the best weapons in football.

 

He's lucky he plays in the NFC. Lamar or Mahomes will expose him if they reach the SB.

His legs almost cost him the game earlier did you forget he fumbled?

 

Can't trust him in any situation throwing or passing. He will make a bad decision when it matters most.

At least Allen didn't lose his fumble. You walked right into that one, Whoaa.

Bills just blew it. Allen got greedy on the last two pass plays trying to go for the hero play instead of the easy throw and that kicker becomes the most hated man in Buffalo for a long time.

Said the same thing last night. 2nd and 8 and you let the clock run down to the 2 minute warning so you are trying to eat clock to score a FG or TD and not let Mahomes touch the ball. What happens? Two straight end zone throws so tons of time left and no improvement on the length of the FG attempt.

That’s been his MO for a long time and it has bitten him so many times. It’s why even though Cook looks OK, I think CMC would have been good for him. Having a check down guy or extra receiver you can legit count on and who can break it on any play gives him another Diggs. He doesn’t feel bad about forcing some throws to Diggs and maybe he would have felt the same as CMC.

Mike Sando on a dumb narrative that's arisen again in the playoffs...

5. Can we please kill one of the more disingenuous narratives out there? Your team was not going to get Lamar Jackson, OK?

One year ago, the Ravens were in a rough spot with their quarterback. Jackson was injured and seemed emotionally estranged from the team as a contract stalemate drew on.

Now that the relationship is whole and Baltimore is making a playoff push, a common refrain holds that teams with lesser quarterbacks committed malpractice by failing to pursue Jackson during the months last offseason when the franchise tag provided a window.

The idea that teams preferred Desmond Ridder or Sam Howell to Jackson is laughable. The question is whether teams with those types of quarterbacks should have tried to negotiate with Jackson.

Hey, why not, right? Well …

Landing a franchise-tagged quarterback from another team would require entering into a really, really bad deal that no smart team would ever enter into, and then surrendering two first-round picks on top of the really, really bad contract. Nobody in the league thought that would have been a good idea at the time. To turn around now and suggest Jackson was there for the taking feels disingenuous.

“People constantly saying these other teams had no interest in Lamar Jackson is not true,” a longtime NFL exec said. “Jackson made it clear he wanted the Deshaun Watson contract. Teams don’t just get to say, ‘We want the player.’ He comes with a package.”

In this case, the package would have included signing Jackson to a deal so over the top that Baltimore would not have matched, and then sending two first-round picks to the Ravens as compensation. Jackson’s production had been in decline, he had struggled to finish seasons healthy and he didn’t even have an agent for teams to contact. Even if those complicating factors had not existed, there was no smart deal to get done.

“Everybody was interested in the player,” the exec said. “They were not interested in the package. Because he was so vociferous about getting that guaranteed deal, those franchises made it clear, there is nothing to talk about. It wasn’t until Baltimore convinced him to take the non-guaranteed contract that the Ravens got a deal done.”

Agreed. On the second down pass, there was a wide open receiver underneath to the left of allen. Play would have picked up 4-5 yards at least and run time off. Instead Allen took a low percentage throw to the end zone.  Even if he made it, mahomes has a good shot at a td when KC gets it back.

It all made no sense. You run the clock out to keep the ball away from Mahomes and then the first two plays are end zone  shots so no need for KC timeout and best case is you are tied and KC can win with a FG. Also, two incompletions and you did 0 to improve the FG chance after the 2 minute warning.

That underneath pass looked like Diggs had enough space that he keeps going and gets a first down. KC had 2 timeouts so worst case is they have to get a FG with no timeouts, probably under a minute and most importantly no Tyreke Hill. Best case, you get 1 more first and get a TD without any time left for KC to score a TD.
