If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.
Cleveland has to be sick over the play calling on that last drive...as SD goes right down and scores. Herbert is awesome!

The Browns got screwed big time by the refs around the 8 minute mark of the 4th with that bull**** PI call on Harrison. Even the NY NFL analysts said it was a bad call. It would have been Brown's ball instead of giving the Chargers a first down deep in our territory which led to a TD.
Quite "entertaining" game though when neither can play defense. And once again the Brown's secondary is all banged up. Geez.
Brown's are a tough run with the Cardinals and Broncos oyver the next two weeks.

The only thing likely worse than Urban Meyer right now is the Jon Gruden email fiasco and it’s likely getting worse:

I’d say he’s resigning by the end of the week.

In other news, Baltimore has come all the way back from 19-3 to tie the game at 25-25 with 39 seconds left in regulation.

Lamar throws the ball pretty good for a running back.

Not a good week to be a NFL kicker.
Indianapolis could have done us a solid, and they should have. That's a bad loss for the Colts. They should have won this game.

That was some embarrasing 2nd Half and OT zone defense with PS secondary players by the Colts up 22-3. They didn't even bother to try covering wide outs and TEs in the red zone. 3rd down with 11 guys stacked in the box and Reich runs the ball relying on a shaky and injured FG kicker to close out the game.
What a debacle
Raves literally could be and should be 1-4 right now with the KC fumble, 67 yd FG (that shouldn't have even happened) and the Colts meltdown.
Give Lamar his 45M a year and let's see what happens with the Ravens cap going forward. Simply amazed he seems to never take a big hit. Ravens smartly seeing if he makes it through another year, but it's likely going to cost them another 10M a year after the Allen contract and with padded numbers from games like last night.
Lamar doesn't often take a big hit because he's too quick. There are times he gets blindsided or someone hits him while someone else is holding him (or when he's already on the ground), but one on one (or even one on two) he's just not going to get pounded. A guy goes 37-43 for 442 yards with 4 TDs and no INTs (plus 2/2 on 2 point conversions), adds 62 yards on the ground to win a game in OT, and your reaction is that....Lamar is going to be overpaid?!? Amazing.
If his game translates and he stays healthy he will get and deserve his 40-50M a year. It's going to now cost them another 10M more by not giving him the extension in the spring or summer.
That will have serious ramifications on the Ravens roster structure. I am not sure how Lamar's game translates into a 2nd contract, but the Ravens, for sure, have been getting the best bargain in sports since mid-2018
All it takes is one hit or even a non contact leg injury and the equation changes. The Ravens and Lamar have lived a charmed life so far and I am sure the Ravens wanted to delay the extension another year to make sure he is 100% going into the extension years.
And yes, the Colts 2H zone/prevent defense was completely embarrassing. At lease make Lamar run inside on a lot more plays to burn clock and take some contact. Any capable QB would have shredded that scheme, but with Lamar it was turbo shredding mode.
