Also this.

My last post was about the Ravens (who I rooted for).

My post back here after months is about Houston (who I rooted for).

Just looked rattled since they lost the 12 pt lead. No FG in the last 2 minutes and 4 turnovers? Recipe for disaster.

I have less than a week to not look like an idiot.

Game is game though, and I’ll take the L if the Bills win.

Between Rogue One and recency bias I’m seeing towards TLJ, we really did go through a bright period of Star Wars cinematics while in college 🥹

Can’t wait to see the Bills flame out in the conference championship game again.

“This is our year” 🫣

Seeing reports about Lamar Jackson’s mom pissed at him for not running the ball more.

What made Lamar dangerous is not what we’re seeing in this game. And haven’t for a while. Is it the stubbornness to remove the “should have been a running back” narrative?

Again

100+ yards of offense for the Eagles this quarter. Just 9 from the Ravens.

Not a winning formula.

what a goddamn touchdown mark andrews

Baker will pay for his actions. (No he won’t)

My Life As a Homeless Man in America An extraordinary firsthand account.

This piece shook me.

Here’s the other thing. The Ravens only gave up 202 passing yards last night.

What if Quentin Johnston could actually catch? These misses easily add another 40 ish yards to Herbert’s total. Possibly even change the game.

Do the Ravens really have it in them to stop AJ Brown and Devonta Smith?

Based on teamrankings.com, Baltimore has the second worst passing defense giving up, on average, 277 yards through the air.

Meanwhile Philadelphia is only giving up 175 yards per game.

It’s going to come down to the run, and the Ravens D holds the advantage there. (77 ypg v 99 ypg)

The Ravens won last night but still allowed 200+ passing yards, and had four receivers average over 10 yards per catch.

That is not a recipe for success when you get deeper into December, and the playoffs.

Next up, an NFC juggernaut in the Eagles.

Ravens fans are absolutely spoiled with this offense. Certainly helps that Chargers haven’t seen an offense like this yet.

Ravens run against the Chargers today

If nothing comes out of this season for the Baltimore Ravens, then it’s entirely on the defense.

Lamar having arguably his best season yet. And yet, the defense just isn’t meeting the moment.

Is it on Zach Orr or the organization for failing him and the unit?

There is money to be made, and power to be gained in the grift. That’s really all it comes down to.

Where would the Eagles be without 26?

This Cowboys-Commanders game is drunk.

Horrible effort by the refs in the NWSL Final.

Great thread Professor, and also got a chance to read your latest sub stack piece.

Out of curiosity, where do you see our current model of sports journalism going? From a local TV perspective, I’m expecting a lot of downsizing, and one-man teams that rely on national highlights and MMJ local stuff

SURELY a three-loss team will not make the expanded CFP playoffs.

Or is it just the SEC postseason 2.0? With some extras of course.

Need to remind myself that most argue from a position of bad faith. They’ve already determined what are their non-negotiables. They either want to dominate you in conversation, or make you uncomfortable.
