    Always thought Lamar looked like the actor Samuel L. Jackson.

    OK now - Who said the Ravens are the best team in the league and KC would have no chance against them?? :D

    No onside kick was fine. There was enough time left. Not covering someone down field on a play that should have been a stop is the issue. Baltimore looked like trash

    Congrats on KC winning another SB

    Though there’s a lot of criticism towards Lamar Jackson it should probably be directed towards Zay Flowers. While we can’t know how things would have played out, his taunt/fumble changed the game. It affected the score and the team play afterwards.

    Absent those things, it’s realistically 17-14 with 7-8 minutes left and a huge momentum shift to the home team.

    Lamar Jackson’s INT. In the end zone shouldn’t define his season - - - but it will.

    People will say Zay Flowers didn’t cost the Ravens a Super Bowl trip - - - but he probably did.

    I thought it was a great game that was spoiled by an ugly stretch towards the end.

    Congratulations Kansas City Chiefs!!

    The taunt penalty was certainly one of the dumbest penalties in NFL playoff history.

    Jackson good for one bone head play in the 4th quarter trailing. He didn’t disappoint. Threw into triple coverage in the end zone.
    Like I’ve said in previous posts, anyone can look like an MVP up 14 but how do you look down 10 in the 4th.
    Not all on him but not an MVP performance

    He wasnt good at all tonight, in fact he was horrible.

    I wouldnt go as far as horrible, but him constantly just standing in the back field like he forgot hes allowed to run through huge open running lanes and not just run around in the backfield was definitely bad. His long balls were off target too.

    That loss wasnt on Flowers or Lamar, Baltimore was just bad overall. KC wasnt exactly good either. That game like some of these other playoff games this year was who wants to lose it more and Baltimore said they did

    Everyone sucked in that game. Baltimore forgot Kelce exists, no one could run the ball, Jackson forgot to run when he should, long third downs getting converted that really didnt lead to points etc.

    Butker the KC FG kicker was good though

    if the Ravens are down two scores in the 4th, they're screwed. because their QB looks like he's freaking out out there. a handful of times on those final couple of drives Jackson could have tucked and run for 15-20 with ease, but in his mind he needed to sit in the pocket for half a minute and ultimately uncork a throw that amounted to nothing

    usually they give you one tiny sauce packet for every hundred you order. so the last 98.5 nuggies are bone dry. thats why you order 200 so they will give you 2

    For sure. Patrick doesnt really bother me, its his brother thats the cringe one. I will say the one good thing about Taylor is that Britney Mahomes seems to have clamed down with her around to be in her circle and Jackson Mahomes looks like hes been banned to other suites and is on the outside of the group.

    The Lion’s coach makes the first big mistake. He should have taken the three points instead of playing 4th and more than a yard.

    Detroit dropped the 4th and 2. That ball should have been caught and has now dropped a long INT that hit the guy in the face to make it a one score game. If/When the Lions lose it wont be from coaching it will be from mistakes

    Touchdown San Francisco! That was the break that opens up the game for them.

    That’s the way Lion’s coach finds a way to lose the game. He’s working at it with his “Los Vegas” mentality. He’s like a whale who loses millions and thinks he’s “smart” because he got his $500 room comped.

    Now a fumble. The game is started toward a miserable Super Bowel. Kansas City vs. San Francisco. It’s like watching hog calling contest. Now a touchdown, and everything Detroit did in the first half is gone. It sucks.

    The Detroit coach is an idiot.

    The Lions are done.

    yup. hate to pin a potential collapse on one play/player, but Reynolds has to.....HAS TO.....catch that ball

    may have cost them a spot in the Super Bowl

    and as I type this, he just dropped another one
