Recover the fumble, you win Cover people, you win. Make tackles, you win. The defense fell apart in the 2nd half, 13 for 13 for Watson who was on pace to have the worst completion % in NFL history? I love Todd's play calling normally, but to not run the ball in the 4th except on 1st down? When you lose your starting guard and tackle?? End around when you are driving successfully that loses 5 and had no chance against a very good defense. Yes, we can point to the pick 6, that ball was tipped (and likely should not have been thrown given where the dB was) or the other pick on a bad read by Lamar when the team was again driving. Or him holding the ball, taking sacks when if he had thrown on time when he hit his back foot, he likely gets a completion. Nonetheless, two 14 pt leads in the game, a 17 play 10 minute drive by Watson, who was what 9 of 28 or something before the drive? They couldn't play man, couldn't play zone, couldn't tackle, yes, this was on the defense... now a short week against a real offense with a real qb? Two AFC North loses in the same week possibly?

Forced to flee, tosses it away..tried to get it to Alghalor 6:43 Lamar keeps it, up the middle (should have handed it off) gain of 2 3rd and 8 Great, delay of game 3rd and 14 Jackson forced to run, gets 8, punt time we are doomed Why not run the ball? Why not run the ball, 5 mins left, punt is a touch back Know how much time is left? Just enough for them to win, not enough for the Ravens to answer

Gus up the middle for 2 Under 8 mins left Slant to Bateman, good coverage incomplete Complete to Flowers for 12, first down

You can't make short passes when the pocket is squeezed like that, he gets lazy sometimes

Oooo he missed the extra point!

Need a long, time consuming drive offense that ends in a score Run up the middle for 2 Let the big Falale wear them out Deflected, picked off, touchdown

In the redzone, you have to put your body between the receivers and the qb. Now Stanely is out and passing is going to be very hard

Deep pass to the endzone incomplete, but pi on Ya Sin Jones hurt on the play 1st and goal from the 10 One thing you can't do with a big load is allow a quick score Pass in the flat loses a yard, Hamilton on the tackle Watson escapes, dumps it down for a score 31-24

Pass to Cooper, wide open for 25 Run to the left for 3 Playing very, very loose zone A 5 yard pass goes for 22 breaking tackles, carding players

Tucker kicks it to the moon, no return Cinci caught looking ahead, down by 10 to the Texans Watson tries to run, sacked, Madebeke!

That 10 yard scoring drive felt as if it lasted 10 minutes but only took 3:17

With Stanely out now, passing is going to get very difficult

Well all of this mess has to have worn out their defense From the 5 Gus up the middle to the 2 2nd & goal Gus again up the middle touchdown! No flags 11:34 left 31-17

Hill up the middle, touchdown, but hold the phone, holding on Lindy, okay, sure, sure 1st and goal from the 13 Lamar keeps it around the end, spins off a tackle, gain of 2 False start, talk about shooting your self in the foot, Stanley 2nd and goal again, wait, refs stop the play again to rest the play clock Qb keeper up the middle for 6, 3rd and goal from the 10 Lamar scrambles, throws a pick in the endzone, Stanley hurt, flag down, defensive holding again, 1st and goal

Punt to the Browns 10, Proche fumbles it, recovered by Duv! Poetic Pitch to Gus around the end for 1 Lamar can't find anyone, throws it away 3rd and 9 Lamar rolls, dances, can't find anyone, throws it away, holding on them, first down

Run to your left, dump it down, just see and flee... we may lose another double digit lead game

Sacked again, completely ignored the rush end of 3rd quarter

Hit that back foot and throw. When they blitz up the middle the crossing route is wide open, trust it

Wide open is Andrews, Lamar lofts it to him for 37 Illegal contact on the Browns, declined Mitchell up the middle for 2 Lamar bull rushed, sacked, 3rd and 17, injury time out

You can't tell me the Browns line didn't hold on that drive, but then there were quick passes in the flat, missed tackles, players out of position a lot on that 17 play drive Come on offense, get the momentum back

This vaunted defense is leaking, get your second wind and man up! Again quick pass in the flat, he gets 11 Bad angles Pitch out wide, runs for 13 to the 10 Looks like the offense is going to have to win this game Run to the right for 3 3:03 mins left in the 3rd Time out Browns, an 8 min drive. On 1 hand, it's good, they are eating the clock, on the other, the defense is wearing out Over the middle to the 3, 3rd and 1 Need a pick Need a pick A fumble Timeout Ravens Sam.Ocho sounds like he is rooting for the Browns 3rd and 2 Run to the right, missed tackle in the back field, he fights for a touchdown Going for 2 1 possession for the Ravens offense so far this half, 17 plays just over 10 minutes on the drive Watson waltzes into the endzone 24-17

6 plays, 78 yards, 2:31 All right defense, momentum taken now keep it! Watson back in (good) Run up the middle, 2 yards Pass in the flat complete for 4 3rd and 4 Bad TV coverage, pass complete in the flat for 5 7 of 21 for Watson Run off the right side for 7 Blitz by Queen forces Watson to run, slides down 8, 3rd and 1, Agent 0 stops them for a loss of 2 4th 1, they get it Defense needs to step up here Complete over the middle for 8 Run up the middle for 3 False start, 1st and 15 Need a pick Run to the right, gain of 1 Blitz forces him to dump it down, 3 defenders waiting, 3rd and 10 Jeepers, Blitz forces him to dump it down, they have him stopped for a gain of 6, he fights for a first down, Hump hurt

Okay, reset, let's take the momentum back Duv returns it to the Ravens 23 Quick out to Bateman for 7 Lamar keeps it, gain of 8 Lamar fires over the middle to Flowers for 18, nice pocket, quick throw Flowers hurt? His elbow, maybe a funny bone too Lamar forced to flee, gain of 4 Tries a screen to Andrews, ball is batted down Quick slant for Obj, runs untouched for 6! Touchdown Ravens! Woo Hoo! In stride! 24-9 12:29

Watson can't find anyone, scrambles for 2 35 seconds, Watson throws deep left, out of bounds incomplete 3rd down 8 29 seconds Wide open over the middle gain of 9 oy Ravens playing like they thought the game was over Back shoulder throw is off target 18 seconds Watson chased, throws it away, Clowney (funny bone) 3rd and 10, Watson pressured, throws it away limping badly 60 yard attempt, 7 seconds left, timeout Ravens Nope, offense comes back out, Pj Walker as Watson went to locker room Pass is broken up near the goal line half time

Lamar can't find anyone, runs for 19, get popped out of bounds, Ravens players run to defend him, legal hit, no flags. Unnecessary hit no doubt Lamar throes a pick trying to hit Bateman, badly underthrown With 43 seconds left
