On paper, the Ravens ought to win this. With Jackson out again, and no DD, and Roman determined to air the ball out... who can say?

Cold & windy, Huntley at QB, Duvernay out, Watkins just joined = great opportunity for 30-40 drop backs.

Sounds like Huntley’s throwing shoulder is sore. Which means that Roman will probably drop Huntley back 50 times.
I’ll be at this game. I’m already trying to pick out what I am gonna wear to survive.

If they lose, Roman absolutely needs to be fired.

If they lose, Roman absolutely needs to be fired. If they lose trying to throw the ball all over the place he needs to go and the press needs to start taking a good look at Harbaugh for allowing his playcalling to go unchecked for so long. But, if we try to run and can't, and can't throw either, I don't see why you'd fire him for calling the plays he should be calling. That said, I am ready to look elsewhere for OC next year and I am souring on Harbaugh as well.

Same problems with clock mgmt, questionable 4th down calls, lack of in game adjustments, and passing game year after year. Two playoff wins since the Super Bowl.
If the Ravens can't make it to the AFC Championship with cheap Lamar under Harbaugh, do we expect different results with Lamar and a huge contract? They didn't exactly excel with Flacco after he signed his contract.

All coaches, even head coaches, even ones who win Superbowls, have expiration dates.
It has been pointed out that when you are trailing you have to pass because the clock isn't your ally. That's true, but they weren't so far behind that they needed to switch almost completely to passes with a questionable passer, questionable receivers and a rushing game that was still working well. Roman devised a game tactic he thought would work and it did not. That's happened more than once, and that's cause for concern.

Well, they pulled it off and now they're in the post season.

Well, they pulled it off and now they're in the post season. Despite Roman's idiocy at the end throwing the ball up two scores with five minutes left. They need to get healthy soon. Huntley isn't going to cut it.

Huntley isn't going to cut it. I wonder to what extent the extremely low game time temperature (for humans) affected personnel decisions? Oh, some guys (like Peters) were probably not going to play regardless. But others? Who can say? I also wonder if the Ravens plan to move on from Jackson. Signing him does not appear to be a priority. Of course we do not know what is going on behind the scenes, but the front view isn't encouraging.

Highly doubt they move on from Jackson, they made it clear talks wouldn't occur during the season. If anything, the past few weeks have shown just how valuable he is to the offense. However they need to also try and sign Roquan.

Huntley isn't going to cut it. And his idiocy at not using his running backs on the first two trips to the red zone despite Dobbins and Gus running well as always. This continued stupidity isn't going to cut it against good opponents.

However they need to also try and sign Roquan. True, but they have also warned that even if they do sign him, they better have a good backup. The best player in the world is not worth a high contract number if they can't stay on the field.

Shew! That was a cold one! Went to Jimmy's Seafood tailgate at 9:30 AM when the temps were in the single digits and it was cold! Beer tubs didn't have ice and beer froze as soon as they were opened. The food was kept hot though. Cover band playing 90s was also good. Foot and hand warmers saved my digits! Game was another bore fest but we pulled it out! And postseason here we come!
