Sure it’s been asked and answered but will there be fans in Tennessee?

Being new, I would first like to say that I am an avid Lamar fan and love not only his personality, but his talent as well. I think he will eventually develop the playoff gene; it took a certain hall of famer named Peyton Manning a long time before he got his first playoff W, let alone a Super Bowl. Like Lamar, he had his thorn in his side, the Patriots (Lamar's being the Chiefs). With all of that said, I have to agree with this. If you can't get a single playoff win, or advance further into the playoffs than divisional round during his entire rookie contract here, there is nothing to say that he will turn it up another notch after he signs a mega contract. If anything, the mega contract possibility should be pushing him to do even better, get those wins so he has even more of an argument for said contract.

Campbell and Williams should be huge, the rotation of those 2 with madubuike and Wolfe it cannot be overstated how big of a difference it could make. Wolfe was an absolute madman in that game and he did it without our primary run defender in Williams and essentially nobody to rotate. Williams being the typical block eater, he just always makes a big difference, and the titans love to run the stretch and give Henry the cutback and madubuike has shown elite ability to squeeze the back end of the stretch and I believe having him squeeze and Campbell to his outside shoulder to contain the cutback is going to be massive, Wolfe can do the same, we have 3 guys now that can penetrate from the DL spot to slow Henry’s momentum. Plus there’s just the exhaustion factor, it should be much less this time around.

one thing I a m sure of is that Derek Wolfe is showing up and playing his butt off. Add Brandon and Calais and I'm pretty optimistic

@JAAM , IIRC, Ravens fans traveled well every time they played well in Tennessee. I remember seeing a shitload of Ravens fans in attendance tailgating before the game started.

That’s a good point. Didn’t even think about that. Hope we see a lot of purple tomorrow

I left for Jamaica the Saturday before our 2017 game @tennessee, we had layover in Atlanta airport, and almost the entire flight had ravens jerseys on and Atlanta airport was PACKED with ravens fans. They were flying in to drive to Nashville

Figured so. I think the Ravens Twitter page even highlighted all of the Ravens fans outside of their stadium. It was wild. I was like, "Holy shit. Is this in Nashville or Baltimore?"

Seems like we have a strong fanbase in locations south of Baltimore. We run Florida (well....so do ALL of the popular teams do). ATL and Carolina, we do well in. Tough to tell about New Orleans since we last played there in 2014, but you get my drift.

I’ve officially reached the point of nervous and downright scared

I really don’t wanna come to grips with the reality that Lamar Jackson’s Ravens likely will never win a super bowl, and I’d be feeling that pretty strongly if we don’t win tomorrow

Can't sleep for shit. Stupid game.

Just be prepared. If we win, it will be, but can he win a SB? Or why can't he get past the Chiefs? If we lose he isn't clutch, which is what they'll be saying anyway if we win and don't advance to the AFCCG. Enjoy tomorrow for whatever it is and the season we had.

@JoeyFlex5 To bring this to NBA terms I'm a Knicks fan. I fully think we were capable enough to win one during the 90s... If not for that bastard Jordan. Ravens unfortunately are in the "Mahomes Era." Can we win? Yes. Everything would have to come together. Fully believe we beat the Titans, but the Chiefs would be our 2020(1?) version of the 2012 Broncos where we'd need the perfect storm to beat them. Now, if that happened, the confidence I think this team would carry could get us one this year.

What gnaws at me is my own belief that The Titans will come out loose and my uncertainty about The Ravens in that regard.
