Re: NFL Divisional week

This has gotta be the upset of the season, I can't believe the Titans are handing it to the Ravens like this.

I'm thrilled for Tannehill, he went from being the Dolphins scapegoat to taking the Titans to the AFC Championship game. All I need is a Chiefs win tomorrow and I'm good.

Re: NFL Divisional week

Looks like Vrabel figured out that gimmick read option offense.

One of my coworkers has been saying the same thing all year. Once anyone could successfully figure out how to stop the read option, the Ravens were done in their current configuration.

still don't want to take anything away from Lamar Jackson this season though, he provided us with a lot of holy shit moments. He was fun to watch this season.

The Titans have a blueprint out there now on how to nullify the Ravens' offense. It will be interesting to see how their offense fares next year.

Re: NFL Divisional week

The difference in both games last night: the trenches.

San Fran d line was the story of the game and their zone blocking run scheme a close second

Tennessee d line forced enough turnovers and pressured Jackson into poor decisions. Derrick Henry and that oline > Baltimore front 7.

So playing strong defense and running the ball....folks it’s always why teams advance in the playoffs. The fantasy football stats distorts this fact these days.

Want to help Haskins? Lock up our 2 best Oline man and bring a RB who can stay healthy

The people on here that are pro Kirk understand who he is as a QB. One who needs a running game, play action and good protection. If he has those things then he's a good to very good player. When those things breakdown like yesterday then he struggles.

The anti Kirk crowd always make it about the money he makes. Jimmy G got paid after only a few starts. He completed 11 passes for 130 yards and a pick. How come you're not bringing up his salary? He didn't play any better than Kirk did, he just played for the better team.

That being said, Vikings fans are pissed off with Cousins. IMO, he has one more season to take the Vikings on a deep playoff run. At least this year he has match what the Case Keenum-led Vikings did in 2017.
Adam Thielen's abbreviated route, followed by interception, doomed Vikings

http://www.startribune.com/adam-thie...ngs/566918922/

Adam Thielen admitted his mistake on the route...like I said during the game...man coverage, cousins made the right throw vs the coverage and thielen sat down like it was zone. Thielen ran the wrong route.

Re: NFL Divisional week

Baltimore had 530 yards of total offense, how many points does that normally produce, 40+? Teams that score around 12 points usually barely creep over 200 yards like the Redskins were often doing this year. Even though they had 3 turnovers and were 0-3 on 4th down that is an insane amount of yards to end up with only 12 points.

I think the loss was more on Lamar Jackson making a lot of mistakes, the moment may have gotten to him. Those two QB sneaks were uncharacteristically bad. The personal foul making a tackle after his first interception showed he wasn't composed.

I am in the anti-kirk crowd, and it has never been about the money. KC has flaws that doom him to never get the most out of the team around him. He went to a 13-3 team that made the conference championship. That same basic team, in fact this past off season the Vikings went to great length to strengthen the team to overcome KCs perceived weakenesses, has never reached anything like the one Keenum led.

Maybe it is the IT factor or whatever you want to call it but whatever IT is, KC doesn't have it.

KC is a top 5 passer when EVERYTHING else and everyone else does their job perfectly, but he will never be a quarterback that leads his team.

So no, it isn't about money, and no I don't like that.

Re: NFL Divisional week

My lord the Kirk talk is just nauseating at this point. I just found it funny as a Skins fan to watch Kyle Shanahan battle it out vs Kirk Cousins in the divisional round of the playoffs. We had both guys in the building and had no vision to see they were guys worth keeping around.

Now it’s the same petty talk about shaming Kirk to make ourselves feel better about letting our best QB in years go. Both Kyle and Kirk have moved on to bigger and better things and we can’t stop cutting them down in some way. Kind of embarrassing honestly.

They had a combined record of 23-9 this year and as a fan of a team with 3 wins we’re judging them, just hilarious.

Re: NFL Divisional week

NBC Sports Washington posted an article about the Titans safety trolling Lamar and posted not cool. Yet, everyone trolls KC repeatedly. Sherman was trolling him for you like that during the game.

I almost feel bad for him, but 84 millions buys a lot of happiness.
