Because he dumps the ball short like teddy two gloves

That isn't supported by his career statistics. He threw a dime to Brown in this game.

He has no issue with accuracy or throwing deep at all. Never has. His issue is being decisive with the ball and go through his reads.

The NFL is so scared right now that the Rams are going to win this game.

Either of the Rams/Commanders making the SB would set up for a possible low fan interest game that could turn into a blowout no matter which of the 3 AFC teams make it.

Nah, it seems like the Eagles are the non-story team.

There are far more Eagles fans than either the Rams or Commanders.  Plus you then get Jason Kelce talking about the Eagles/SB nonstop for 2 weeks on everything he does, which is going to drive interest, even more so if it's against KC and his brother.

The Rams would give you the LA fires storyline a bit, and the Commanders have a passionate fan base that would be getting back to the SB for the first time in a long time, which would be great for those two teams' fans.  But in general random NFL fan interest, I don't think either of them would make it a good enough game to bring in viewers who may not be already tuning in regardless of the matchup like the Eagles would.

If the Rams had a real LA fan base like the rest of the city's long time teams it would be different.  But in reality, the Rams aren't able to take advantage of the huge LA market.

is it supposed to be snowing in Buffalo later too? if so gotta think that's a big advantage for the Ravens due to their run game

I actually think it would be a net disadvantage to them.

It would help Henry's power running, but it would likely significantly hurt Lamar's running ability who needs good footing to take advantage of his running ability.

So it would really allow the Bills to load up the box to focus on Henry and likely end up hurting the Ravens on the whole.

Nah the main disadvantage for Buffalo in snow would be their inability to pass the ball like usual. Ravens don't rely on the pass like the Bills do.

    • Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4
    • Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.    
    • Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
