NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

I’m glad they were smart enough to realize it. Your best receiver out and you have Henry and the best running qb.

I would be a little nervous about all the design runs for Lamar though.

You don’t need it against Pittsburgh.

Keep defensive starters in, rest the O? Maybe at 28

I wouldn’t go that far until under 10 minutes.

But not only is he taking a lot of hits, they are putting these plays on film for the Bills.

I just want them to keep him busy enough not to think too much. They need to keep him in run mode anyway, thats their advantage.

No no no.

You are only allowed to have 1 of your favorite teams be really good at any given time.

do I have to dump the Cavs or OSU football?

Both is the obvious answer

Anyone giving the Broncos a chance? Buffalo better not sleep on that offense.

Not official or anything but I picked them in the wildcard upsets thread and other various NFL threads, probably won’t happen but I think it’s the most likely one today even with the fact it has biggest spread

Yes.

Not a great chance mind you, but Denver has a great defense and Nix has been playing well.

All it takes is a couple mistakes/unlucky breaks and this could be an upset.

Well the Ravens give their approval for the upset. Won’t happen though, that’s the kind of thing that happens for the Chiefs.

 

[Think McFly Think]

Don’t think that says much, but Nix can throw and scoring TDs instead of FGs is huge

I actually think an upset would serve Baltimore a lot more than KC.

Baltimore would get Houston at home instead of Buffalo on the road.

And KC would have to play Denver instead of Houston.

I think Denver is a tougher matchup for them. And a Denver upset provides a realistic pathway for Baltimore to host 3 playoff games.

Honestly I was joking about the Chiefs good luck but yeah. I hate to feel this way but If Lamar doesn’t have a bad game I don’t see the Ravens losing. It just seems to be coming together.

Buffalo and KC are the 2 most teams capable of beating them. Tough ask to play on the road.

In my opinion only if Lamar has a bad game. Thats why they play the games though. The Lions are the only team that can maybe just out score them.

Josh Allen is every bit as dominant.

Fully capable of put scoring Baltimore on a good day for the offense.

The difference there is the Ravens defense in my opinion

I don’t think they are much better than Buffalo defense. A little, not a lot.

And playing the game in Buffalo makes up for a lot of it.

Buffalo one of my favorite teams as well, looking forward to it.

He actually just passed Steve Young in post season rush yards and is right behind Lamar
