The Nightmare, the Turnovers and the Season's Over

[UPennChem]

i think that's the point
clearly they didnt trust the room in the end - no other possible way to justify the playcalling/usage today

I think it's more they didn't trust the defense

 

[cobrajet]

Oh i punched a punched whatever was around me and put dents in my celing

I been there…too depressed today, but I been there!

Need to mention Kyle though. That TD was impossible to defend. The other stuff he did - felt like he's our defense, got the rest of the D going.

 

[UPennChem]

was with you until this
defence gave up 2 drives at the beginning of the game and then nothing after that

I mean at the end. They were great overall. I just mean that there was still a chance to even tie at the end if they make one more play. And despite pitching the shutout 2nd half, they couldn't get that MVS play. It was just another day where we couldn't get anything we needed.

 

[Simba]

The offensive game plan seemed so starkly different than the one against the Texans. No plan to try to run the ball and did not adjust against the blitz by crafting some of those shorter routes. Felt like everything took too long to develop. Couple that with a poor OL showing and this is the result

Defense started slow and settled in and did everything they possibly could to keep us in it.

Lamar is soooo overrated!!!! Nice team discipline Ratburds!!!!

Go fuck yourself moron's son.

 

[cobrajet]

im not gonna get over this for a while

Me either brother! I feel like I was kicked in the teeth!

It sucks we lost but I'm still proud of this team. This was a entertaining season and Lamar did grow as a player and accomplished a lot. This really not a loss to hang our heads down about in my opinion. It's really just a game that may not have gone the way we would have wanted but this team fought hard and still made history. It sucks to have to wait until next year to see this team play again but this is just another setback if that's what we want to call it to help in the journey of what this team is working towards achieving. I expect Lamar to continue to learn from this and grow a lot further as a player.

I am highly grateful to be a Ravens fan and I could not ask for a better team too root for.

I'm not hurt... I'm numb to it. We've seened this same movie on repeat. It sucks we were the best DVOA, had home advantage, blew out top teams.....yet we lost the same way we have.... stop running, no short options, our oline falls apart.

Watching the Lions hand it to their RBs is so fucking upsetting

 

[UPennChem]

Idk this is the only time in my entire life where I am even questioning whether I care anymore? Idk if I even have it in me to spend my time and money in this way any more. Didn't feel this way after any of the other losses

 

[drjohnnyfever]

I think the DEF played well. What killed them was the personal fouls. The Chef's are sharks and once there was blood in the water, they just continued to play their game and point when we got chippy. They pushed our buttons and won. The OFF, otoh, was just hot ass all game. No rhyme or reason to what they were doing. They looked lost. And were inexplicably going for deep balls the whole game, which was the main strength of the Chef's DEF. It was all stupid.

 

[allblackraven]

These games feature the best of the best, and people are going to get beat on the line and in the secondary. Tournament games have to be played methodically and generally mistake free.

There was some uncharacteristic ill discipline but limiting the mistakes starts with a good plan and then timely adjustments. We did none of that on offense.

I feel the same but I know that in about 2 days I'll be on some mock draft simulator or something

We've changed coordinators.... yet the same results. Harbaugh needs to be fired period.

 

[Bama Ravens]

We ran the ball with our running backs 6 times. Completely got away from what got us here and forced Lamar to try to be a pure pocket passer.

Bateman definitely not getting his 5th year picked up.

Yeah can’t blame the D overall, but I would say this was a defensive battle and spags got the best of us today. And actually their D has played very well during the playoffs.

i mean that's the kind of play
like the Kelce TD where the guy across from you just made a play - just frustrating obviously that the MVS bomb ended the game

It really is something when every time we lose in these situations it's not as much as it feels like the other team beat us as we beat ourselves. That's both frustrating and crushing.
