MickinMD ★ Posted January 5, 2020 Share #2 Posted January 5, 2020 I don't know what to figure about the Titans at the Ravens. The Ravens have the #4 defense and perhaps the best defensive backs, but they can be run-on and Derrick Henry is a tremendous running back. On the other hand, the last Ravens loss was 40-25 - and it wasn't that close - to the Browns in Baltimore with elite running back Nick Chubb chewing the Ravens up when a lot of defensive players were banged up and before they added several key defensive players. The Ravens were a different team in the 2nd game at Cleveland two weeks ago, where the Ravens won 31-15, could have run the score up, and Chubb ran 15 times for 45 yds, no scores, and didn't catch his only target. The Ravens should have a similar game plan against the Titans, whose 21st-ranked defense is similar to the 22nd-ranked Browns. Ravens 31, Titans 24. The 1exans beat the Chiefs 31-24 in week 6 when Mahomes, Hill, RB's, Kelce, etc. were mostly healthy, but the Chiefs D has been playing better. Chiefs 30, Texans 27.

The_Karen_Cooper_Incident Posted January 5, 2020 Share #5 Posted January 5, 2020 I hope Tom plays next year. I would like to see him play somewhere else and possibly help another team improve. Another championship would be cool to see and prove once again he's The Goat. As much as I dislike the Patriots, mostly because of their sociopathic fan base (SW you are not included in this bunch), I still like watching Tom deflate opposing teams life force. Tom isn't racist either. Mudkipz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Square Wheels Posted January 5, 2020 Share #8 Posted January 5, 2020 it would have been a sham if they had moved on. They were not SB material. I fear this may have been the end. Josh McDaniels - likely to leave. Tom - may leave, should retire on top. Julian - if everyone else is gone, should go to a team that can contend Bill - why would he stay at that point 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than Edelman, who played well on offense? i think Belichick stays because he likes it, plus the defense is still great. They need offensive playmakers, like Antonio Brown but without the crazy.

Dottleshead ★ Posted January 5, 2020 Author Share #13 Posted January 5, 2020 It's just one loss for Gawd's sake. And that was in the playoffs. I bet nobody goes anywhere but maybe their offensive coordinator. You're stuck with 'em Wheels. And they'll make the playoff again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentonMakes Posted January 5, 2020 Share #15 Posted January 5, 2020 Tough game, tough loss. I really think the young and inexperienced receivers were the Pats' (and Brady's) big problem (although the old and experienced Edelman had a crucial drop late) . I expect Brady and Belichick will both be back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if that bothers you, I'm sure you will get over it. I'm sure. The "king" is Bellichek and I happily will laugh and smile at his falling. While I don't really like Brady (at all), he is a 1%ers among the 1%ers, and his career has been impressive and HoF worthy by a long shot. I think as well, if he is healthy and has a few solid receivers and a good O-line, he is still in the top 10% of QBs in the league simply because he will NOT make mistakes and has football knowledge of 20 years as as starting NFL QB. His level of experience is huge, so even as the arm strength wanes or his mobility slows, he can still be a threat in any game - not on his own, but as the leader getting the ball to the youngsters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
