The Ugly, The Murphy's Law and The Ravens

[rossihunter2]

I put this all on the players, not the coaching decisions or the refs. Almost everyone played like shit

i will criticise harbs for the way he managed the time at the end of the first half but otherwise i agree - that being said i think we got out-planned also as well as out-executed

 

[Believe Dat]

1. Chris Jones
2. Ngakoue
3. Clowney

And resign Judon. Gotta get some LBs as well. And at least one professional experienced WR would be nice

I dnt ever be high and mighty lol.. i was high and mighty for this game cause i thought we would win but other than that naw.

you always have absurd hot takes after every bad thing that happens and I haven’t seen you say anything but high praise for the last three months stop it

 

[Dom McRaven]

i hate that stuff - it always feels like tempting fate - ive also had a bad feeling all week that intellectually i could not shake

It is. I mean I didn't want to say anything leading up to the week but just watching Ravens fans talk endless of shit just had me smh'ing. I'm like sure we accomplished a lot during the regular season and won 12 straight and blah blah blah but none of that matters come playoff time.

I was talking with one of my friends who's a Broncos fan and he basically said that this reminded him of our win against DEN in 2012 leading up to our Super Bowl win. What he meant by that is the majority of football fans, pundits, etc picked us to win liked how most picked DEN to win that game. Well the rest followed suit.

yeah come join us in the draft section of the forum - some of us already got an early start

I’ve been following without an account for a while, will be diving in head first!

Hollywood had a good game with some great plays. Looking forward to him improving next year

he came in clutch and nobody else stepped up - the 2 youngest guys on the roster were the only ones who showed any fight

 

[RavensFan419]

1. Chris Jones
2. Ngakoue
3. Clowney

And resign Judon. Gotta get some LBs as well. And at least one professional experienced WR would be nice

Either Dean pees exposed Judon or he isn’t that good being he was his coach he may have known how to slow him down but he looked awful tonight

 

[BloodRaven]

Receivers dropped 7 passes
Mekari got eaten alive
Defense got run over
Defense gave up passing touchdowns
Judon missed tackles that ended up big plays
Abandoned the run

At least Lamar, our bookend tackles and Hollywood turned up

 

[Believe Dat]

I’ve been having bad feels all week as well. Just so long between games, iron has to be sharpened to avoid rust. But in the end, we got down early and didn’t have the horses to play that style

welcome then - sorry the circumstances of your arrival arent so happy

 

[CanadianRavensFan]

In both playoff losses, we have gotten whooped in the trenches and that’s the ballgame.

This. 100% this. The oline and to a lesser extent the dline have been abused in the last two playoff games and changes need to be made so that this embarrassment doesn't happen again. We are an AFC north team, we run the football and we stop other teams from running on us and we did neither of those things tonight

Receivers dropped 7 passes
Mekari got eaten alive
Defense got run over
Defense gave up passing touchdowns
Judon missed tackles that ended up big plays
Abandoned the run

At least Lamar, our bookend tackles and Hollywood turned up

This is about as accurate and complete a take possible

welcome then - sorry the circumstances of your arrival arent so happy

Thank you for the welcome, brighter days ahead!

Both Judon and Ferguson got absolutely worked this game. Admittedly Henry is probably bigger than them both but they were incredibly ineffective

Receivers dropped 7 passes
Mekari got eaten alive

Judon missed tackles that ended up big plays

At least Lamar, our bookend tackles and Hollywood turned up

and those guys thankfully are going to be cornerstones of this franchise for a long time

 

[Believe Dat]

So many TFL opportunities that were whiffed on

 

[Believe Dat]

I think we need to aggressively beef up this interior, especially with Yanda’s uncertain future. Surely we can do better than Skura/Mekari at center, or Bozeman at LG

You mean one of the three?

 

[rossihunter2]

Thank you for the welcome, brighter days ahead!

i thought id feel sad - i just feel dull - this is probably the most devastating post-season loss ive had as a ravens fan - 2011 was heart-breaking but it didnt feel like this

im not going to be able to enjoy the nfl for a little while
