In fact Andy Reid said today he thought Mahomes was a little rusty on Sunday with the time off but he wanted him to "keep firing." I'm talking about throwing to a wide open Travis Kelce 15 yards downfield instead of throwing into double coverage 50 yards downfield. Sometimes the first down throw is exactly what we need.

reesebobby 5,663 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 It's pretty much impossible to keep our offense off the field because even running the ball opposing offenses score quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Priority one this offseason is finding a guy who can cover tight ends. Berry is supposed to be that guy but I don't think we want to put all of our apples into that cart. Dorian O Daniel has potential but I'd prefer another safety whos proven at least at the college level he can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cook got a large chunk of his yardage because werthers was stupid enough to demand his gimpy linebacker to cover him one on one. Although it was sad and very pathetic that he owned 2 of our Defenders to fight for the last yard to move the sticks. Man our unit is filled with weak schmucks.

I watched the Bears game this weekend with Chase Daniel and it almost made me cringe thinking about going back to that offense after what we have seen with Mahomes. Just saying if the defense is going to give you and easy first down. Take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mloe68 1,521 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Just saw an interesting stat The Ravens have 11 rushing fumbles this year. By far the most in the AFC. They have been pretty fortunate it looks like to get 8 of those 11 back. But odds are that will swing the other way. And while we know we are not very adept at tackling the interesting counter stat is that we have actually forced the most fumbles in the AFC. So its the team who fumbles the most vs the team that creates the most fumbles. Something to watch anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what concerns me. The difference IMO is Mahomes. I think he's better than Ryan (far better). Especially outside the pocket. Matt Ryan is Ned Stark, and Mahomes is Ser Arthur Dayne.

I hope we can continue doing that from our rb group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were in Tampa 2 zone on the long TD and all Hitchens had to do was take a deeper drop. But he bit on the stupid little dig route move. He’s just miserable in coverage of any kind. So much so it’s Suttons fault if he’s in there on passing downs. May concern here is Gruden actually provided some good offensive game film for Harbaugh. I did read we basically benched Murray after blowing that run blitz play. So maybe this will lead to Lucas seeing more PT. Having even a 75 percent Eric Berry back would make a difference too. We are that bad at safety and ILB in coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact. I say quit living in the past. If you believe in Mahomes there is no reason to think the next 15 years will be anything like the last 40.

Would you rather be playing the Chiefs or the Chargers if the Raven playoff chances were on the line, which they are? Chargers of course.....I penciled in the Chiefs game as an L at the beginning of the season, halfway thru and even now. We have a chance but it is slim....

Ryan is a very good QB in my opinion. But for whatever reason that Falcons offense has been in the complete tank for the last month (haven't scored 20 points in their last 4). That said without Watkins or Hunt we are really limiting our options here against a Ravens defense playing really well. At some point this has to catch up to us. I personally think we are going to need one of our best defensive efforts of the year on Sunday (after laying a complete egg there on Sunday) against you.
