    Week 7 Around the NFL Game Thread (Coverage Maps included)

    It is just one game. Baltimore should make the playoffs.

     

    I like all the teams in that division but it does not seem like Pitt will make the playoffs. It should be the end for Big Ben and maybe Tomlin. 

    The problem is we have 17 on IR. Mekari, another OT , went out today. We could get into the playoffs, but injuries could prohibit a deep run. We would totally stink without Lamar this year. He can’t do everything. That’s the NFL. Cincy did a great rebuild. That North division is always a meat grind.

    I thought of you during the game ( I was only able to catch the final quarter)  and knew how disappointing it must have been for you.

     

    Titans are on a mission it appears.  The title game should be a good one!

     

    For me, not having a horse in the race (pun intended)  I'm just looking forward to close, competitive games. 

     

     
    Just getting back into the flow. That loss killed me. A waste of a 14-2 season.

    Titans beat the living you know what out of us. Total smack down. Harbaugh totally outcoached by Vrabel , and Pees schooled Roman. The Ravens were not at all prepared for the game , and it shows. Total waste of a #1 seed and home field advantage. Titans played great, but my money would have to be on KC next week. It may be their time. 

    Lamar Jackson

    Lamar had a great season , but after this loss  the talk will be can he win a playoff game ? Remember Andy Dalton or Peyton early in his career. It’s just one of those things that go with high expectations. He’s only a second year QB, but you have to start winning some playoff games.

    NFL 100 All Time team Baltimore edition

    Good Baltimore addition. Jim Parker belong on the Mt Rushmore of Colts alongside Johnny and Peyton and anybody who disagrees can just let him block for me instead.

     

    My homer pick made the list so I’m happy with it.

     

    In attempt to forget that for a minute, I say the list was great across the board. I feared that not only would they leave Favre out, but that they would leave him out for a bunch of statpadders and heartthrobs of this era. And that’s just quarterbacks. I thought sure the Jim Parkers, Lenny Moore’s etc of the world wouldn’t even make the ballot.


    Most of my old Baltimore Colt heroes , except Artie Donovan made it, so I was pretty pleased with the list overall. Great to see some of the older guys who made the league what it is, get a little bit of the spotlight.

    Titans are a legitimate threat to the Ravens. Well coached team, great running game, and QB that has turned his career around. I fully expect a tough game , and early weather predictions are for a very rainy and sloppy game. This is a renewal of an old rivalry from the early 2000’s , with Lewis led defense vs McNair and company. 

    Brees comparison to Peyton

    In Baltimore we had Vinny Testaverde, Scott Mitchell, Stoney Case, Tony Banks, Scott Mitchell, Kyle Boller, Trent Dilfer, Anthony Wright, Joe Flacco, and a few guys I forgot. 
    Before that I was watching Unitas and Bert Jones, although I did have to put up with Marty Domres, Art Schlichter, and Mike Pagel. My point is, when you have a great QB like Manning or Brees, enjoy it.

    That’s a hard road to go indeed.  I think if my Colts had to deal with Pittsburgh as much as you guys do then they would hardly ever make to playoffs.  Lol. That franchise just owns them for whatever reason.  I like that the Ravens don’t back down to them...or to the Pats for that matter.  So...respect.  


    One thing for sure is , the Peyton Manning Colts also threw a monkey wrench into the Raven’s dreams. That being said , I really enjoyed watching Peyton as a player, and just all around great gentleman. I used to watch In awe as he picked apart some of our great defenses. He didn’t have some of the all around teams Brady had, but what a career ! Two Super Bowls is not bad. They are very hard to win. Luck was a great QB also. I understand many are still upset with him, but when you’re passing blood out of your you know what, and had lacerated kidneys, it’s a tough call.  You guys have had some great QB play over the years.

    Wildcard Round Score Predictions

    Got around to reading all of the texts sent to me after last night's Bills game, most of them predictably "The Bills played a good game blablabla".

     

    No, I don't care that they "played a good game" (they didn't). The super high ranked defense blew a 16 point lead in the second half, gave up a 3rd and 18, and whiffed on a layup sack to lose the game they had no business losing, so no, I'm not giving this team one ounce of praise for last night.


    How about , “ We feel your pain ? “

    Agree with a lot of this! I too enjoyed the Patriots getting beat, but mainly because I was tired of seeing them in the SB and wanted them out of the running as soon as possible. But had the Titans lost yesterday, I would not have been upset at all (just moved on and wished for the Pats demise in the next game). I was also rooting for the Bills, no disrespect to the Texans but I will never root for them ever!

    I know some fans choose to cheer for the teams from their division and/or conference once their team is actually out, feeling in some way it’s still a representation of who they side with - and that’s their right, I have nothing negative to say about it. But my cheering on the AFC South for division fandom alone will always start and stop with the COLTS!

    (Side note: I do enjoy the healthy competition coming our way in the AFC South next season now that the other teams have stepped up their game though, time for the Colts to write a new story of overcoming adversity!)


    I don’t mind healthy competition , but for the Raven’s , it’s a constant fist fight for the division with the Steelers. Then , the Bengals were pretty strong for a decade under Marvin Lewis. The difficulty of the division has caused us to be on the road during most of the franchise playoff history. The fact that the Ravens have won two Super Bowls is a miracle , with the hard road they have had.

    Four times we’ve had to go to NE in the playoffs, while NE had coasted to division titles , top seeds, and home playoff games. I guess that is my take on the division rival situation , and I guess my opinion is tainted dealing with the Steelers all the time.

    I am not getting all the rah rah for other AFC South foes. I get we all enjoyed the Patriots getting beat , but beyond that, I’m not wishing any division rival well. As a AFC North guy, I’m certainly not wishing the Steelers, Bengals, or Browns well. I would prefer to have the Patriots situation these last 20 years, where your division rivals stink, and you have a shoo in to the division title, home playoff games, and the # 1 seed.
