re: Alabama Players in the NFL and Pro Football Discussion: Off Season or until deleted

I'm sure I speak for many when I say that watching the Lions melt down and choke this one away feels almost like I'm watching my team blow it. frickin brutal for Lions fans. Still a damn good season but man, to come so close and slowly let it slip away. Oof.

Same he looked hurt.

frick I was hoping for a miracle.

I will say this. I knew this was coming before halftime. I told my buddies that the Lions will come out after halftime and act as if they don't know what football is...they did just that.

NFL is too rigged.

Guess I'll pull for the 49ers over the Fighting Swifties.

Sorry man, you all were the best team this year and really deserved to be in the SB.

By the way that anyone find it bizarre Monken decided to not run the ball today. The Ravens led the league in rush attempts per game and in a game they were never down more than 10 points, their backs got 6 total carries, Flowers got 2 and Lamar ran it 8 times and I think most of those were scrambles. It just doesn't make any sense. It isn't like KC is a great run D either. That is crazy.

Bingo.

What's it going to take for the Ravens to get over the hump?

Step 1: get a white, or bi-racial but white looking, QB who is very good and highly marketable.

Step 2: have that QB either be really, really attractive or simply become romantically involved with a high profile celebrity that the league can use to sell merchandise to women who don't care about football but know that they like to look at [player] or that [celebrity] is dating [player].

Step 3: win a Super Bowl every other year for 10-15 years.

This is kind of a joke. Kind of.

I'm not saying it is rigged but refs can easily influence outcomes and margins of victory. The NBA is notorious for this. With that being said, I am telling you Monken could easily owe somebody money cause he literally called 3 runs the second half, one to Flowers. Every run he called during the game except one was 1st down or 3rd and short. What he called was insane based on how the team is built. I know people are all over Lamar Jackson but either the game plan was idiotic or they paniced due to KCs time of possession. KCs defense's strength is the secondary and they just decided to have Lamar throw 40 times when this team is OK against the run and you are arguably the best run team in the league, madness.
