General NFL Discussion

I don't think Lamar is a sure thing bet to win a Super Bowl. But, the Andrews fumble and drop lost the game more than anything. While it was a heads up play by the defender to force the fumble, Andrews was still carrying that ball like a loaf of bread, and in that kind of weather? Egregious. But I feel for him. He never makes mistakes like that and he ended up having 2 utterly critical ones.

I don't think there are inherent issues with Baltimore's offensive strategy either. It's the turnovers. And their QB is just prone to them. They had over 400 yards last night...

Collingsworth is the NFL version of Gary Danielson.

Henry shouldn’t be catching passes as much as he should have atleast been Plan A on atleast 1 of those 2 point conversion plays.

I never made the same connection but you are right. Every single there was a turnover, he brought up that damn dropped pass. Now I can definitely hear Gary doing the exact same thing

I mean everyone is beating on Andrews but what about these?

Take away either of these then Andrews doesn’t have a chance to become Bill Buckner 2.0.

But it keeps happening in the same exact manner for the past 7 years. Lamar is a regular season stat hog but post season bacon bits. The offense runs through him and dies when he can’t carry it. They are the least talented skill team on a consistent basis entering the playoffs and it has been to their detriment. They depend on their TEs and RBs because their quarterback is hit or miss passing beyond 20 yards. Buffalo basically said “Henry ain’t gonna beat us” and put the game on the passing game.

No one is giving Jackson a pass, but we can see that there was more than Jackson at play in this loss.

People are giving Lamar a pass and blaming Andrews. It started immediately after the game with the likes of Acho and Orvlosky. Now it’s all you hear this morning. Lamar has probably the best defense for every choke or missed opportunity in the NFL. Atleast Lamar himself takes responsibility for much of his mistakes.

Personally i feel the Ravens lost because they are the Ravens. But there is an insane group of nfl fans that desperately wants Lamar to win a SB so bad that they will find any excuse other than Lamar added to loss to make Lamar at worst be viewed as a Dan Marino guy.

If you say so. I don't see it. Shrug

I cannot take seriously a quarterback who didn't have enough field presence to know he was about to run out of the back of the endzone and then proceeded to do so.

The NFL sucks.
Quite frankly, so does college football.

Meh, I love them both.

to each his own.
I’m not calling for the game to be banned or anything.

I once did, but I don’t know what happened to me.

Eagles' center Cam Jurgens may not be able to play Sunday. Landon Dickerson talks about returning to the center position.

Things the LA Times suggests might be changed in the NFL next season.

• Put the draft in prime time, and move it from city to city…
• Allow choreographed touchdown/turnover celebrations,
• speed up pace of play, move back PAT kicks…
• Shrink the preseason and expand the regular season…
• Change kickoffs,
• dramatically expand the international schedule,
• play games on Black Friday, Christmas Day and the first Friday of the season…
