Yep. We got away with one, but it was an even game. Not like it was a hold on an INT for a TD where the Ravens offense would have scored and it would have been a 14-point swing hypothetically. We were right there with them the whole game. If anything, we probably win by 10 points if Richardson plays as he could have been much more mobile than Minshew, who didn't run the ball all game (and Lamar did).
This game just reassures me that with AR, we will have high potential as a team. Oh, and Matt Gay is an elite Kicker!
Running the ball is very important, I don't want Entertainement. I want wins, stop the run, and run for over 100 yards, kick the ball well, and you win. What I look at for a QB is, Accuracy/clutch factor, and a guy that doesn't Turn it over. Teams that win the turnover battle, win 80% of the time which is an overwhelming fact.
I loved this signing at the start of Free Agency. This is how you sign a FA. Get a top 3 kicker in the league for nothing but cash. I was very happy we did this, considering our K situation recently. This game alone shows that contract was worth it. Gay won us this game almost by himself. He's the best kicker we've had since Veniteri IMO.
