NFL GDT: 2024 AFC Divisional Round: (2) Buffalo Bills vs (3) Baltimore Ravens

[VaporTrail]

I’d like to see the Bills win but it’s tough to see how they could do it

Some big turnovers

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Ravens in a squeaker.

Sure looks like it will be very cold and possibly snow too on Sunday night. I am going with the Bills as a result.

I dunno. If the weather turns it into a ground and pound game it’s hard to not this Henry has a big game. Especially if the weather limits Allen/the Bills ability to be super dynamic and rack up points quickly which might normally force Baltimore to rely less on the run.

ravens should lean heavily on the run either way, but not having flowers is still a big loss

final regular season games against the browns always seem to end in disaster

 

[hatterson]

Heard a stat today and had to look it up to verify.

Lamar Jackson has never thrown a TD pass in a road playoff game.

Granted it's only 2 games, but still crazy to hear.

I have to assume that record gets broken this week, although there's the off chance all their TDs are rushing.

It's not really surprising considering that in the early years he immediately started running the moment he couldn't throw it to his target.

he beat the titans with his legs in 2020 WC game

all i remember about the divisional game against the bills was tucker missing a couple kicks in windy weather and how terrible the ravens o-line was. i think lamar ended up suffering a concussion that game because of a snap that sailed over his head

harbaugh and monken just need to remember what happened the last two times they decided to panic and abandon the run at the first sign of trouble in a playoff game. i would like to think that won't be the case with henry there

 

[Habsawce]

If Lamar doesn't turn into his usual playoff pumpkin, the Ravens win. Big if though.

Also only his 8th start coming up.

The best thing about this game is going to be when every analyst correctly states that Baltimore has the better running back, wide receivers, tight ends and defense and never mentions that Lamar being on the road is the entire f***ing reason the MVP vote is f***ed.

Every aspect of Baltimore is better than Buffalo except one. And no one wants to admit that with any kind of nfl honors…but they’ll be sure to tell you about it this week.

Henry is going to run all over Buffalo. They have literally one chance and it’s the guy who is hosting the game despite his leading TD reception receiver this year being Mack Hollins.

It is pretty crazy that the Bills have only allowed 14 sacks all season which is 8 higher than GB who is second and nobody on the Oline is even considered?

The winner has to face DA CHIPS at Arrowhead, this is gonna be a heavyweight fight like no other

This is the thing... if the Bills can't rely as much on their passing they will need to run and the Ravens have the best run defense in the league.

The Bills Defense is also smaller than most and isn't that great against the run. The Ravens tortured the Steelers 6th overall run defense, Bills are ranked 12th.

If the Bills can get up early on the Ravens and force them into mistakes and the Ravens take penalties, that's how I could see the Bills winning.
