Shannon Sharpe was talking about when his team rested the starters they lost first game

Thinking back to 2017 we rested starters and got bounced first game didnt we?

Feels good to finally be the boogeyman.

I'm not scared of shit this year. We can go anywhere and beat anybody and we're most likely gonna have to go NE/Balt back to back; so embrace the run that's about to happen.

Why? If we’re healthy, we’ll beat them down.

The Pats just dont scare me, our d played them well. We beat them with some ref help but MVPat was wounded and not throwing well towards the end at all.

I'm nervous just because Chiefs but I'm also SO confident we're better than every other team. We haven't lost by more than 8 points since the Mahomes era began and we have a good defense now. A really good defense! Our locker room is solid and on a mission. We'll be fine.

Drew Brees is a statue in the pocket, our defense will block his throwing lanes and force him to eat the ball all day long! No team can keep up with our offense when we're running on all 8 cylinders. Playing in Miami will allow our offense to turn it loose! o:-)

We’re better than New England at literally every position besides corner and linebacker.

That team just doesn’t scare me. They’ve been coasting by on their joke schedule all season long.

I hate this "ref help" narrative. Yes, we got a break at the end, but what about the bogus calls that went the other way? The gap in penalty yards was staggering.

They needed a blocked punt and a fumble to avoid getting blown out. And we didn't even play particularly well offensively.

From that Ravens board:

Re: Worst Fans (based on fan forums)

I’ve had a good experience at Chiefs Planet, they are mostly intelligent fans who are able to look at things objectively. Same with the Bills fans.

My first ever Ravens game was the playoff game vs Denver on New Year's Eve 2000. I saw a late 30s guy with his 10-12 year old son, both in Broncos jerseys, being urinated on by numerous Baltimore fans while in line to use the urinals. Unfortunately, that is the image that a lot of people have of the city of Baltimore and, by association, it's fan.

Only thing that scares me about NE is their cheating.

Baltimore can play with us. We blew them out earlier this year, but last year took a somewhat miracle pass to Reek to pull it out.

Doesn't matter in the end, it happened and we won.

Patrick and Tyreek are in the business of making miracles.

Right we were outreffed at least 2 to 1 if not worse. LMAO

Hell on one of those ref screw jobs at the pats, Honey Badger got pushed hard in the back as he was tackling their sure to score WR at the los.

I was ready to criticize this act until I realized they were Broncos fans. They deserved it.

Baltimore's defense has improved since early in the year, but it's not at the level of last year's.

I think at least 2 of the PIs were bullshit flops, and both led to scores. The Patriots needed a lot to go their way just to stay in the game.

Next time, we need to bury them early and take the refs out of it.
