Not one hold called on the chiefs again

Im sure later in the off season the thought of opening up against them could be exciting but in the end even if we beat them it’s not going to heal what they did to us. The only thing that can is a SB win

The chiefs will be better next year too which is the funny part, Flowers will go to them as he rehabilitates his young troubled image, the media will demonize Baltimore for keeping him so they’ll cave and then crickets when Chiefs sign him

49ers were absolute frauds, more than any of the other teams this year

I'm so sick of this "weak" Chiefs team narrative. Their wrs weren't top tier. THAT'S IT.

That’s how refs control the game.

It’s amazing. I’m on cloud nine. All of the Niner fans on YouTube calling Purdy “the real MVP” on Lamar’s speech video prior to the Super Bowl are nowhere to be found now.
Here are all of the guys that represent cap savings if cut...
Bowser seems like a given. Moses, Ricard, and maybe Mekari seem to be the biggest decisions that need to be made. Odell is also a given due to how they structured his revamped deal, unless they extend him of course. Stanley is the only other one that seems loosely plausible - it wouldn't shock me as much as it would some.

I didn’t watch but the game playing out almost exactly as I figured made me feel worse. I’m so mad at the Ravens, this was their year and they fucking squandered it, I’m so mad at Harbaugh

Purdy is a joke man, to be fair I didn’t watch but I assume he curled up and started crying when Deebo got hurt. Aside from some good scrambles he looked bad and fortunate to not have more turnovers these playoffs from what I saw

I would be stunned if Stanley gets cut. EDCs presser indicates they will give him another year. I wouldn’t rule out us drafting a LT this upcoming draft early(potentially round 1). Just can’t cut the guy with no succession plan, a bad OT can lead to bad consequences.

OBJ and Bowser are gone, I suspect. I personally can't see them paying Ricard $4M or carrying him at $5M either. I think he'll need a paycut, extension, or be cut entirely, to stay.
I do think one of either Stanley or Moses are cut, likely the latter. I can't really see a world where they cut Stanley before the draft, even with that much cap savings available.
Mekari is a FA after '24, so I think they'll extend him and look to lower his cap #. His base comp is incredibly reasonable for one of the games best swing tackles. Especially when he could easily end up the starter at RT to start the year.

We all know where Ricard is going
Don't think you should be taking anything as fact out of a presser of all places. I'd still say it's on the unlikely side but I wouldn't be shocked whatsoever. To me, the decision on Stanley is much less about the cap as a whole or even a succession plan - it's about how many quality snaps you think Ronnie has left. The underlying tones to me seemed that they don't think there's much left in the tank... question being that is there 1 more year left or is this kind of who he is at this point?
Im quick to call someone ass loo but i do think stanley deserves another year.. been fighting injuries last few yrs and sometimes it takes a full year to get back in form
I don't completely disagree. I'd run it back because I do think there were some games where he looked good. However, he was super inconsistent and his anchor was a question mark all year and I'm not sure that's getting any better at this point with what his lower body has been through.

I do agree with that. However, I don't see the Ravens getting to a point in the next 3-4 months (basically by the draft) where they have any real understanding of whether Stanley can return to a high level or not. Realistically, they're not going to know that until probably at least training camp, and likely not into the regular season.
And to be honest... I think if the Ravens thought they'd get 2023 Stanley in 2024, they'd probably still keep him, due to lack of realistic options (at least until the draft).
