If he is in the conversation, I don't see how you don't put Matt Ryan in.
are you referring to Plunkett or Rivers?

Just as well, pretty early start for Niners. By the time they wake up, we're up 28-3

I didn't even notice until now that Roberts TD on Sunday was against his former teammate Gareon Conley. He probably beat him all the time in practice.
we're 5th in overall turnover differential too which is key (plus remember at least 1 of those giveaways was on special teams)
also important note that the defensive yards and points stats are heavily impacted by those first 4 games
absolutely and although I don't like to pick and choose, I'd like to know what our offensive and defensive numbers especially have been like since week 5. The week Bynes and Fort started to man the middle of the field.
Wonder what Jimmy the Greek would say now.
extra context here - this involves kneels per https://twitter.com/Yoshi2052/status/1196528720628109319 in this tweet
heard someone say something like this today: ravens defence has been 2nd in scoring through the last 5 weeks - or something similar - cant remember which show it was

if you stuck with the Ravens in their down years you are in for a big ride now and we are only going up the roller coaster.
