How about the Bills keeping the Ravens to just three point?

To-infinitive

Is it fair to put the loss on the quarterback on Lamar Jackson?

You go, you're about to drive and tired of school, and instead you throw a pick six of 101 yards.

I think that we recognize the fact that that's the difference.

I'm not trying to sit up there and say, Overall, you know, the Baltimore Ravens did everything right?

Of course, we're not saying that the decision that could have been made, we understand that.

But in the end, what it comes down to is that you were driving and this cat Johnson Ron Johnson, turned, you know, interception into a 101 yard touchdown return.

I'm not gonna even nitpick like Max would do.

You know how you got on Cam New if you're not going for that, You know, not chasing that ball when he fumbled in the Super Bowl.

I didn't say that, but remember that Well, Lamar Jackson should have ran that.

Do that You usually the faster due to the field, defenders usually can't catch you, but suddenly you can't catch this guy.

I mean, come on now, you could have made a better effort to tackle him and prevent that Pick six.

In the end, Baltimore's defense has been really all year long, Top five and points a lot.

Top top six or rather, top six is the top two, actually, and points a while top seven in yards against the past yards against the US, the defense has been complete, has been riel.

Their running game is number one, primarily because of Lamar Jackson's ability to run the football.

You have to be able to throw the football.

And at the end of the day, not only did Lamar Jackson not play lights out, throw the football, he actually threw a pivotal pick six in the third quarter that I think had a profound effect on the on the on the outcome of this game.

Off course, I have to put it on him without the pick six.

We're having a different conversation, but that pick six was everything.

There's no question in my mind about the reason the Baltimore Ravens lost this game.

I'm putting on the front office in Baltimore.

They have to go get Lamar and number one wide receiver.

They took Hollywood, Brown in the draft and Hollywood.

But he hasn't developed to be the number one look at the teams left in the playoffs.

Davante Adams, Mike Evans, Stefon Diggs, Tyree kill their Ones and the past game for Baltimore.

They have got the coolest run game in the NFL with Greg Roman scheme wise, but they were all coached in that as well.

Two things stood out with Buffalo when it came to their defense when they were in the pistol.

Who meaning the tailback is in the shotgun lined up behind them?

Are they blitz the fullback every single time it shut down their run game.

When they went in to back, they blitz the boundary.

It shut down their run game, so that's got to grow.

But their past game scheme wise has to grow.

Then they have to go get either Allen Robinson or Kenny Golladay.

That should be the number one goal this offseason.

Go get Lamar, a bona fide number one receiver over the last two seasons.

Do you know what quarterback in the NFL has targeted tight ends and running backs in the past game?

You know his bottom 10 targeting wide receivers Lamar Jackson.

So, like this game isn't strictly because Lamar through that pick six.

But Max pointed out the two missed field goals by Tucker are huge.

The fact that we couldn't get the snap on a consistent basis are huge.

The fact that Buffalo decided we're gonna line up and we're gonna put 10 guys near the football and we're not scared of you throwing the ball downfield because we're not scared of anybody going to make the play downfield.

That's a huge reason why Lamar will grow.

Lamar is gonna continue, develop and get better, but they've got to go get a bona fide stud on the outside for that past game to grow and to not allow what happened this past weekend happen again.

First of all, I'm gonna call you out about something, cause I don't like your I don't like your analysis at all And here's the reason why Let me tell you why.

Because you start off in all seriousness you start off talking about.

I'm gonna blame the front office because they don't have a number one receiver.

We knew that coming into the game, we knew that coming into the game.

We knew that coming into the Buffalo game, you didn't have a number one receiver.

We knew that coming into the Tennessee game.

We knew that throughout watching the Baltimore Ravens throughout the season.

So what I'm trying to say is that Excuse me, let's talk about the game that took place Saturday night.

It didn't stop you from driving down the field.

It didn't stop you from getting to within eight yards of of How did they get down the field?

Listen, you're not only that 2nd 16 scrambled for a first down, but let me finish.

What I'm saying to you is, I'm not disagreeing with you.

I'm not disagreeing with you that they're passing attack wasn't great.

But the point is, in the end, you were still in a position to tie and you threw a pick six.

But Stephen A is not about him to hold it.

Is that was that Was that the play of the game?

Yes, but the game doesn't come down to a single place.

But in the end, listen Once again, I keep telling all of you damn NFL aficionados The dangerous part about me is not only do I respect y'all, I watch you all.

You have raved about Dan Orlovsky breaking down film and highlighting how one place to place three plays can make the difference in the game I'm saying to you is Well, actually stuff Thio, even in that one play was the play of the game.

I'm gonna give you that, Stephen, and you're you're saying actually acting on that.

I'm saying I can't blame the loss on the Marr.

I could blame that play swinging the game, but I look at the game in totality and go.
