Papa was silent until we lost.
You can always count on him to show up after a loss.

Well, they had the best record in the league, number 1 seed, made it to the AFC championship game, I would say they had leaders, you can't do all of that without leaders.
Did they lose their composure? Yes, KC got away with several dirty tricks but the refs always, almost, flag the ones who get revenge.
A little immature, Flowers, yes, but the talent is there.
Lost trying to do too much? Sure, it happens, a good lesson to learn from.
But yes, they have talent and leadership
Hopefully, Flowers recovers from this. He was devastated about the fumble. But, if it hadn't been for him, we wouldn't have even scored our first touchdown. He is a great talent and he's ours. Yes, the taunting was immature, but I'll bet KC had been riding him the whole game and got inside his head. He'll learn from that.
The O-line needs some rebuilding, especially the tackles. Maybe through a combination of the draft and free agency.
The defense is going to be a shell of what it was next year due to all the players leaving and that is our biggest worry.

Just a really sad outcome. Tsyl has a point that we didn’t run the ball enough.
Our assistant coaches were out coached.
And we lost our poise.
-
It’s up to Monken and MacDonald. We have the better personnel. It’s coming down to coaching and play calling.
-
If that's how it plays out, I'll be more than happy.

What kind of game are you expecting? I think it will be a close nail-biter, perhaps coming down to a Justin Tucker FG. I base that on the fact that there are two really good defenses playing. My main concern with the KC offense is Pacheco more so than Mahomes. I think we'll be ready for Mahomes but afraid Pacheco will run over us while we're fixated with their quarterback. We'll need to run the ball effectively ourselves to keep the Chiefs' offense off the field and wear down their defense.
The 2 guys that give me the most hope for a win on our side are MacDonald and Monken.
Should be a really good game.

And give the Chiefs one more thing to defend against.

Zrebiec says Andrews has been activated.

Yes and before Likely developed.

Wow! I would love to see both Andrews and Likely on the field at the same time.

The Ravens are capable of beating the Chiefs but it will require intensity of focus and ability for MacDonald and Monken to adjust on-the-fly. The Chiefs' defense is as solid as ours. Their offense is all Mahomes and Pacheco. We have to pressure Mahomes without letting Pacheco run wild.
A key to victory would be getting an early lead.

FWIW after the game Harbs said 'Gus is OK'.
Maybe we'll know more Tuesday.
-
I think it will be a close game, but I'd rather face Mahomes rather than the Bills with their 'automatic first downs' using the 'tush-push'! Allen is like a runaway horse when he decides to take off. As good as Pacheco is, I'd rather face him than Allen.
Right at this moment, I think the Ravens have the better team. We just have to show up and be fired up like we have been.
-
Sometimes 2 big plays is all you get and Likely made em.

Yep, he was definitely fired up to play. It'll be great to have him for the next two games.

Our defense was outstanding. Keeping the Texans to just 3 offensive points is quite the achievement when that same offense scored 45 just last week against the vaunted Browns defense. Roquan, Clowney, Madabuike, Green are having career years. Somehow I'd like to see us keep PQ and Clowney but I don't think we have the cap space to do it. Those 4 guys are irreplaceable, and next year's team is going to be the worse for them and MacDonald not being here.
Monken might be gone too...I'm hoping against hope that we can keep him too.
We're in a carpe diem mode right now, though. This is the most well-rounded team the Ravens have ever had and I'm really enjoying the ride.
GO RAVENS!

I’m signing off for now. What a great 2nd half!
-
Dee, I think it’s safe now. You can put a fork in Houston!
-
Nice run by Justice.
-
The Oline and play selection need to improve in the 2nd half!
-
Nobody’s been open.
-
We’ll, I don’t often post when I’m watching the game but I’ll try and break in if we get safely ahead.
-
Hah! My wife and I are already parked in front of the tube. Starting to sweat it out. But I have a good feeling about this.
-
I’m counting on MacDonald, Monken, Roquan, and Lamar for the Ravens to be fully prepared and locked in for this game. We should get a solid victory.

I know he's highly thought of in the business but I don't consider him irreplaceable like Monken and MacDonald.
