The Forty, the Fumble, and the Fucking Déjà Vu

IMG_4941.jpeg
 
It is time for Harbaugh to call it quits. Years of fucking talking every offseason, for the whole offseason and nothing ever changes. Retire and open the bible school or something. Take Monken and his bullshit play calling with you. While you're at it, might wanna make some room on a bus for Orr, too.

Fuck this shit.
 
Starks drops easy INT
Clock management gives them 3 before half
Roquan Smith was terrible
Alexander was terrible
Atrocious pass rush
3 fumbles, one costly
Trenton Simpson punt coverage
Tyler Loop missed PAT
Jordan Stout bad punt
Ali no good returns
Terrible kick off STs
Alexander doesn't let the guy score
Some truly terrible officiating
Blind tip ball luck for Buffalo
 
Alexander sucks. Not sure if it's injury or what but they beat him like a drum.
Dude looked like a complete liability out there
 
This is a horrible loss.

The special teams were terrible. Loop misses a PAT, you lose by one. Poor kick coverage to start the game. Go into the endzone downing a punt, they start at the 20 instead of the 1.

They lost this game as soon as they punted it away. I have no idea how Harbaugh can justify trusting the defense. Even if you don't get it, the field is that much shorter for Buffalo, there is a pretty good chance you get the ball back.

The defense is money poorly spent. That was absolutely pathetic. They had almost zero pass rush all night. They don't force turnovers. One common theme in the big games, the Ravens defense doesn't force turnovers.

This is a bad loss. It's happened for several years now and it will likely happen again this season.

Really disappointing to start the season that way
 
This game right here is the perfect example of 2 things: 1) how much I fucking hate having to wait until the evening to watch my team play and 2) trenches fucking matter. Only sacked Allen once. Didn't get much pressure on him. No secondary will be able to hold up that long.

I'm honestly amazed how we routinely find ways to shoot ourselves in the foot. Loop missing a PAT. Henry fumbling. Wack ass situational play-calling. This ain't a SB contender.
 
Gotta find ways to create pressure. Idk wtf orr got going on. Its the same stuff from last year. We have no identity on defense except “ hope”.. mike macdonald knew our guys were ass and thats why he created different looks and schemed up pressures.. what we doing out there is just attack the ball type shit
 
Also I told yall we'd lose from us running hurry up on the first offensive play after giving up a TD. Yall have made fun of me for years saying it's overly dramatic but it's been right time and time again. We dont have the mental constitution of winners. We coach and play like losers
 
I don't really blame the defense. They were absolutely gased after the Ravens kept scoring so quick and as a result, at the end, Allen basically had all day to complete passes.

It all comes down to having an offense that could score at will and trying to use it to burn clock when it really mattered. Coaching scared as usual and he always does it in the worst circumstances, against the best teams , with the best QBs who can take advantage of it.

That and punting on 4th and 2 against a defense who couldn't stop us all night.
