Media trying to make Jayden Daniels an ass quarterback when he just had the best game a quarterback has played against the 49ers elite defense this year so far lmao
Derrick Henry fumbled and we gonna spend the week BBQ the Head Coach and The DEF that gave up 13 points with the offense turning the ball over.
The other fanbases were right.
This is definitely someone Lamar is gonna mesh with, play broke down a few times and he’s downfield being a friendly target for the qb looking for the ball
My favorite thing about Mark Andrews is that he’ll false start, fumble, drop 3 passes including a TD but he’ll convert a 2nd and 3 with 11 minutes left in the second quarter and get up screaming like he just caught the game winning TD in the Super Bowl.
#RavensFlock
THIS IS INSANE!!!
“Before the London game, Hurts was in the hospital until 4 am and did not sleep because sleep was a risk. He played without having slept.”
Jalen Hurts was told by doctors not to sleep after his initial diagnosis of a superficial blood clot while in London.
Hurts stayed awake for roughly 36 hours before starting against the Jaguars.
(per @TomPelissero)
correct. coaches need to make adjustments.
but at the end of the day they’re working with below average talent at several positions and the ONLY reason people don’t acknowledge it is because lamar wins. lamar’s out of this world talent masks so many deficiencies on this roster.
with o line construction, he’s literally punished for being so good. the thought process is lamar is super man so if we give him mid talent, he’ll be alright. whereas it should be, lamar deserves a wall because we have to protect our franchise. i’m always gonna have that approach with the o line.
you saw your team yesterday without lamar, it was flagrantly eye opening. what adjustments do you make gm?
Obviously, a lot goes into it, but when Derrick Henry has lost a fumble in a game, the Ravens lose.
He's lost 5 fumbles in 39 regular season games w/Balt. The Ravens are 0-5 in those games, all 5 were one-score losses. Average margin of defeat in those losses is 3.6 points.
After catching up and watching the game replay, I’m honestly a little confused by how much #Ravens fans are overreacting to the #Browns loss. Here’s why:
1. Tyler Huntley VASTLY limits the ceiling of this offense.
Huntley is a game manager at best. That’s not a knock on him, it’s just the reality of who he is as a quarterback. He struggles to consistently push the ball downfield, doesn’t throw with anticipation, and limits what you can realistically ask this offense to execute. I never expected a productive offensive performance with him under center, especially against this defense.
2. The Browns defense deserves some credit.
Even with a few guys out, Cleveland still has a very talented, well-coached defensive unit. The Ravens had some early success schematically, but the Browns adjusted after the first quarter and made life increasingly difficult. Sometimes you have to acknowledge that the opposing defense played a good football game.
3. The Ravens defense played a PHENOMENAL game.
Outside of a handful of third-down blunders, I thought this was another extremely encouraging performance from this unit.
Deshaun Watson threw for just 164 yards. The Ravens generated FIVE sacks, the pass rush was consistently disruptive, and the tackling continues to improve. Kyle Hamilton was outstanding, and the defense looked fast, physical, and disciplined for most of the afternoon.
There are still things to clean up, particularly in critical situations, but the overall trajectory of this defense is extremely encouraging as we approach the middle of the season.
4. The Ravens made critical mistakes that ultimately cost them the game.
Derrick Henry’s fumble, the missed field goal, and the late defensive breakdowns were all costly. Those are mistakes you simply cannot afford to make in a close divisional game.
But there’s a difference between identifying a handful of costly mistakes and acting like the entire team is fundamentally flawed.
5. CONTEXT MATTERS.
The Ravens are 4-2, playing without their two-time MVP quarterback, and just lost a divisional road game by three points.
Is it frustrating? Absolutely. Should the Ravens have won this game? Without question.
But I’m far more interested in the encouraging developments on defense than I am concerned about an offense being led by a backup quarterback with obvious limitations.
Get Lamar Jackson back healthy, continue building on what we’ve seen defensively, and clean up the situational mistakes.
I still feel VERY good about where this team is headed.
Not every loss needs to trigger a full-blown crisis.
They are insecure— if you believe Lamar is better than Josh— you won’t turn into a bitch when Josh makes a great play. He’s clearly an elite QB. It’s not that serious
