This week will tell if your offense is truly on a heater or did the offense benefit from playing 2 really banged up defense.

And I just want you to know that Mahomes and Reid have made a living off of wrecking number one ranked defenses that were led by great linebacker duos. They do this shit year in and year out.

Pretty spot on. MIA/BUF were playing with their best defenders in ICU. So we really don't know how much better the offense is, or if they simply took advantage of two really banged up Ds.

Like most things, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. i think we took advantage of two beat-to-shit defenses, but I also think the offense has found some chemistry.

But all the chemistry is with Rashee Rice; the rest of our WR corps is still DOA. Travis has looked more himself in the BUF game, and Pacheco seems none the worse for wear after his shoulder issues.

We don't win that game without MVS.

Because it's orders of magnitude easier to build the rest of your roster when you know the QB is locked in for the next 5+ years. Those restructures you so loathe are a LOT easier when you have years at the back of the deal to throw cap space into. Your roster planning is easier. Your cap management is significantly so.

If you can do it that way, you should. Unless you're not sure you WANT to be locked into that QB for another 5+ years.

Last offseason the Ravens weren't sure. He didn't get smarter over the last 12 months. He's the same guy, just at a different point in his development - a curve the Ravens would've had a better handle on than anyone else.

And yet they didn't approach it that way. The 'why' of it seems pretty obvious if you haven't spent several hours (months) trying to convince yourself that Lamar Jackson can read the Matrix now.

If you want to make the point that there's a reality where it's advantageous to lock up a QB to a long-term deal because of the increased flexibility it could offer, sure. And if you want to make the point that a QB who relies on rushing ability is less likely to get that deal because of the chance they could decline in that capacity with age, then sure.

So what? What we know is that Jackson signed a contract at market rate and immediately won an MVP and now has years left on the deal. The Ravens have been unambiguous winners thus far in terms of their financial relationship with Lamar Jackson.

But you want to insist on inventing hypotheticals based on massive assumptions to project that in the future--even if not now--that financial relationship might change. Or you want to extrapolate what you think it says about the Ravens' appraisal of Lamar Jackson's long-term trajectory and who is as as an athlete.

Go for it. Enjoy your pie in the sky.

2. Do you think Swift is packing heat and / or friends with / taking tips from Michelle Obama?

3. Do you think the NFL and KC has conspired with the 9th circle of hell to be gifted a trip to the SB, where a 3 hour loop of purposeful torture is to be unleashed onto the public, involving Pfizer and State Farm commercials>back with camera shots of Swift or Kelce bro shirtless>football, as part of a very meticulously scripted torture-suicide depopulation plan?

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Omg. I like this guy. He’s like the Rfaulk of the Ravens fanbase. Finally a Ravens fan with a sense of humor, instead of these other butt****ing morons who I’m not sure have watched very much football in their pathetic lives!

They didn't expect Ryans to send, not just the kitchen sink, but the house on literally every single play ( they blitzed 75% of the time Saturday). They went into half and made adjustments just as they have done every single game this season. Lamar was apart of the adjustment conversation just as Mahomes is for the Chiefs. He said they couldn't continue to call long developing plays because they were sending more rushers then the had blockers. It wasn't that coaches didn't see I mean Steve Winder and Ray Charles saw it. My point is the stupid guy with the low wonderlic that can't read defenses knew just enough to know they needed to go to shorter passes and didn't need someone to hold his hand to figure it out.

I just watched the all-22 of the last 3 drives before half. The Texans only rushed 5, 1 extra rusher, mostly a backer and once a safety. They weren't sending the house, they were simple mike and will stunts mostly.

Offensively for Kansas City, I’m so fascinated to see how they handle personnel groupings. They went heavier than ever with 13 personnel last week, but I don’t really expect similar. They may zag big time there.

But why do the Ravens have to follow that model? Why would they do any of what you’re suggesting when they don’t have to? There’s risk in locking up any QB like that. Yes, even Mahomes.

Everyone and their mother (literally, my mother) thought the Ravens were bungling this last negotiation either by paying him too much or not giving him the guaranteed contract and locking him up. And yet, he signed with the Ravens for a market rate deal that he immediately outperformed.

When this deal is up, what reason is there to believe he would go elsewhere or not be worth a market rate deal when his next contract is due?

If it helps you rest easier at night knowing that Mahomes is married to KC forever, then congrats. The Ravens are doing just fine with their QB and his contract too even if it’s not the same structure.

I don’t know about resting “easier”, but it certainly fills my nights with constant exotic wet dreams.

I get it. Mahomes is as "him" as they come. No one can take that from you guys.

The weird part to me is just turning that around into some argument about how Lamar Jackson isn't going to be good in six years and isn't a real QB and blah blah blah.

The Ravens are doing just fine over here, thank you very much.

What? You guys are the one's that are coming in to our board and saying he is a great pocket passer who runs. No, his is an Ok pocket passer who is a great runner? Those QB's don't play until their 40, if they are lucky they play to maybe 35. If you don't like it, don't post in here and don't lurk in here. It's your choice.

OneWinningDrive 01-24-2024 06:24 PM

Boys, a few of my posts are missing the thumbs down. It's especially important that you guys defend Chiefsplanet as your home turf now that the "Arrowhead Invitational" I heard so much about before this week has been summarily cancelled. Call it a "Moral Arrowhead Invitational."

It’s your fan base coming to this board spewing nonsense like, “this is a legacy game for Mahomes”, the guy who’s legacy may be added to but, is certainly already pretty well defined. Maybe you should put a little more focus on the stupid shit you and your own are saying as visitors to our board and worry about Lamar’s legacy seeing as how he hasn’t even made an appearance in a SB, let alone won two of three.

Is John Harbaugh going to go for it every 4th down because he's scared shitless?

If Baltimore falls behind, there's going to be some major puckered asses.
