that works just as good

Wow, Harbaugh might have just out-dumbed Dumblin's worst ever

Carl Nassib shoved it right up Jackson’s ass right there.

ok, that was a pretty good call. Not sure you really intended to take the delay of game to set that up....

Why not just snap it and spike it instead of eating the delay of game?

Definitely one of the MOST bizarre finishes to a game I've ever seen. Multiple. Incredible.

Wow. I don't enjoy a lot of non-Steeler games but that was a really good one.
Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

Ravens might be in for a tough season. Villanueva sucks. Lamar is taking too many hits. Their depth at RB and CB is suspect. Schedule is rough. There D doesn’t have the teeth it used to have.

The Raiders have offered some doozies in prime time. Last season it was the Braille Mary; now this one. Vegas baby. Vegas.

I don't understand what I just watched, but I'm pretty sure Gruden is still a mediocre coach, and the Ravens might be much, much worse than I suspected.

Harbaugh not kicking the FG, not once but twice, has to be one of the dumbest calls I've ever seen.

The call wasn't wrong - IF you didn't have the greatest, most clutch kicker in NFL history.

Remember when Trump literally stopped doing pressers?

Lying over and over gets difficult I guess.
I don't remember because it never happened. Trump gave almost daily pressers in front of the helicopter. And Trump was a lying, vulgar idiot. Don't be a politard - Biden sucks just as bad.

2 things:

1. I still hate Derek Carr
2. He’s acting like he just won the SB in his interview. Due for a letdown next week.

This was a tough game on the road in a new stadium. Their o-line is not what it once was, that may really hurt given they are a running team built around their line.

Lamar fumbled 3 times today...... made a few nice throws, and a bunch of average throws. He is going to have to be much better if they are going to make a playoff run.

Much of LV's best work against the Ravens was vs. heavy blitz. If we're getting pressure with 4 again next weekend, they are in trouble. Covering Waller is going to be a bitch, though.

And TEs usually kill us. Not good.

I don’t see it changing for Jackson. He has the weight of the team on his shoulders with all the injuries. He will be trying to do too much the rest of the season.

Just to echo a few earlier comments: Holy shit, Villy was bad tonight.

Watched a replay of the Nassib strip sack. Villy completely blew his assignment and let Nassib go 1:1 with the RB.

After watching Eli and Peyton, I now know the Achilles heel of NFL inside LBers. Cover 3! They will put the fast TE or fast WR running the diagonal flag route, and it forces the LBers to cover that TE or WR already at full speed for about 15 yards….think Spillane. All you can do is not play cover 3.
