I know exactly how it works. A large percentage of bettors lost their $$$ after the Texans got blown the F out.
I hope the Ravens beat the Bills or Chiefs like they did us. That would make me feel better. Maybe Mahomes or Allen will get sacked or intercepted, which they didn't do to CJ.
I'm really the most upset with Slowik. You know your interior OL is trash. You know the Ravens run D is elite. Yet you light a dozen plays on fire running it up the middle? The play calling today felt like Bill O'Brien was back in charge.
The game plan to me was always this: Make Jackson throw it Turn CJ loose Let the dice fall where they may If you lose that way I can live with it. If they beat you at your game, you tip your hat and move on. We pretty much did the opposite. Let Lamar run and tried to run on them. And of course it didn't work.
I'm not a big gambler, but threw down $100 bucks instead of putting it in machines when I drove my Mom to Coushatta for Thanksgiving. I might come out ahead $22.50 if DeMeco gets Coach of the Year. Woohoo! Stroud won't get MVP, and I don't see him getting Offensive Player of the Year either. Too bad they didn't have a wager at the time for Rookie of the Year. Stroud Offensive Player of the Year $19.50 / $1774.50 Stroud MVP $25 / $480 DeMeco Coach of the Year $35 / $122.50 Strike these two bets... AFC Championship $10 / $260 Superbowl $10.50 / $535.50
Don’t know if it’s been said but I was really impressed with the way Demeco schemed today. He contained Lamar (for a half) better than other teams with better personal. And the fact that he broke with his defensive tendencies and brought the blitz is really encouraging. Shows that he’s not stubborn (Schwartz & Quinn) and can adapt to the opponent.
I can't wait until we are a top 5 defense. You know it will eventually get there with Demeco as coach. We just need the personnel.
They lost due to discipline (lack of) and talent disparity across the field...both of which will be improved going forward, I believe. Enjoyed the ride!
CJ was running for his life most of this game. I assume they wanted to let him unleash it but the opportunities were few and far between. Line upgrades on both sides will be a priority.
It was a great season. They’re way ahead of schedule. Have to patch a few holes for next season but they are better than most everyone expected.
Great season. Disappointed we had 11 penalties and 10 pts but looking fwd to the offseason and what changes caserio makes to bolster the team Still amazing to think a 3 win team (last year) was one half away from an afc championship this year
Agreed. However, the reality is we blitzed like 60%+ on defense in an attempt to make Lamar throw. The Ravens knew that and Lamar did his thing. Us running the ball like we did was a complete adjustment due to the Ravens D owning our line. Stroud didn’t have time or open guys to throw the ball too. The Ravens showed their face, like we did last week against the Browns. Whoever wins the Bills/Chiefs game will watch the film from ours and shut that down.
