@DPSOTS3 @ScottKacsmar @ColeJacksonFB “You don’t know ball”; “clueless”

You’re like a petulant toddler. Stop projecting your ire at me. It’s Burrow that keeps losing the games.

What a weird day in Sports Media.

When Baltimore loses, they’ll spend the entire day after either trashing, or acting concerned about Lamar.

They win a SNF rollercoaster with a backup QB against one of the hottest teams in the league and crickets.

The New #NFL Tie Breaker:

Both team’s blue medical tents are brought out to the middle of the field and reconstructed into an Octagon.

Each coaching staff selects one member to enter the ring.

The 6thQ Tie-Breaker should be a HC Pursuit Race.

Each HC lines up on their own sideline’s 50 yard line at the boundary and they run along the boundary until one catches up to the other.

"I would love for Jayden Daniels to be the eraser here and save the day..

As a coach you have to be great in these moments..

I'm a fan of Dan Quinn but this certainly falls under his umbrella" ~ @danorlovsky7 #PMSLive

[telos @systemsontology]

@PatMcAfeeShow @AdamSchefter GM’s are less risk averse and more aggressive, partly because they now have entire teams dedicated to figuring out the roster and salary puzzles.

But, the % of hits in the draft remains relatively low so known quantities in trades is preferable.

[telos @systemsontology]

Nick Vannett quietly was stout. Good for him.

Trenton Simpson AGAIN!!

He had one bad angle on a Bijan run but was one of the best defenders on the field for a 5th week in a row.

Where’s all the DoomerFlock gang that were so certain we’d lose to Atlanta because “Lamar IS the team”..?

Suddenly, Insiders want to respect official announcements.

It couldn’t possibly have anything to do with prediction markets…

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

Good explanation.

@DPSOTS3 @ScottKacsmar @ColeJacksonFB “You don’t know ball” is a dead giveaway the person saying it doesn’t know ball

[telos @systemsontology]

@Wifi_Sellz22 4th. Some of us had him as a day two pick

[telos @systemsontology]

For all the #RavensFlock Gracen Halton fans from pre-draft.

We missed out on a gem:

[Coach Yac 🗣 @Coach_Yac]

Gracen Halton with the play of the season

He rips the ball out and recovers it for the touchdown

Legendary play

“A single third-down failure, a sudden coverage bust, or a miraculous fourth-quarter drive feels so heavy, because inside that 8 seconds, you aren't just watching a ball move, you're watching a complex system balance itself on the edge of chaos.”

@nikknowsball Football is the microcosm of Life. Infinitely variable in every moment.

If soccer is chess, Football is Go.

Each play is a holographic fractal of the whole. Every single down contains the total system - structural design, individual agency, and random entropy on a field.

[telos @systemsontology]

@kiranpa88 Yea. TJ Tampa would’ve been helpful.

We need to mix Martin back in some too. Let him work his way back.

Kone healthy would be fun. I’m pulling for that guy. He’s got the goods.

[telos @systemsontology]

This is not a serious person. We should see a bit more development and success from a Minter-led Defensive Backfield that cost us a ton of money.

I applaud your optimism, but let’s be real.

[Z.J. @ZJBeatdown]

Who fucking cares. They forced field goals all game.

Yards and conversions don’t win games.

Atlanta has 1 offensive touchdown. Ravens offense hasn’t capitalized and 89 lost this game for them.

@Ravens Should’ve tagged every one of them

[telos @systemsontology]

@kiranpa88 Absolutely it is. We gave up 9 of 17 3rd downs. Not as bad as I thought.

Given Minter and Mickens being the coaches, I expect better, though.

If we clean it up and the DL plays like it did, we’ll be a tough matchup for anyone.

[telos @systemsontology]

The Baltimore #Ravens Defensive Backfield allowed ATL to convert 9 of 17 third downs.

It felt like it was worse because so many were 3rd and long and obviously passing situations.

But, clean that up and the Defense is

[telos @systemsontology]

Pretty much.

But, he did learn. He looked those last catches in and covered the ball with two hands if he continues that, he can stay in a backup role.

[NFL Memes @NFLMemes]

Ravens fans to Mark Andrews

[telos @systemsontology]

@devpanchwagh If we play like that every week AND clean up the 3rd downs we gave up, we’ll be a top defensive team week in and week out.
