We will likely have to beat at least one of those teams to advance to the Super Bowl. I'm guessing we'll have to beat two.
That's fair. The Browns and Titans are pretty traditional anyway.

The Ravens are just so unorthodox with all of the misdirection, read options, and insanely mobile QB. People can hate on Lamar all they want, but he is a great football player. There's a reason his win percentage is second only to Mahomes.

The ravens have had one of the weakest strength of schedules since LJ took over there. It's why they're one in done when they face real competition in the playoffs. Are defense played terrible yesterday (minus the honeybadger ofcourse). We led this game most of the way by double digits. And if that stupid bastard puts 2 hands on the ball, we win.

Bullshit. He's been starting for nearly three full seasons now. You don't just keep getting lucky for that long.

He is a great football player.

KC seemed to handle it before well enough.

Ravens schemed him out, just ask The Franchise. She knows.

Like I said early on in this thread, I do not want to move my All Pro Dlefensive Tackle to Defensive End.

Jones looked completely lost and confused on several plays. He was a liability against Jackson and now we'll see if other teams can scheme against him the same way. It don't look good but we'll see.

What if i told you that Lamar has been stupid lucky, beaten a shit ton of bad teams and is a fantastic athlete that plays football? All of these things are true. It takes a perfect storm for him to do what he did last night normally. But you cant discredit what he has done.

I'd love it if he played for the Chiefs. As a running back.

Shit imagine a shifty runner like that behind this line!

He is not a primary DE.

His biggest flaw at IDL is that he doesn’t always maintain discipline against the run. We can survive that in the middle - but that spells disaster at DE, which we saw last night.

I don’t mind shifting him to Edge on obvious passing downs, but if he can’t handle read-option or set the edge on the outside runs, we are fucked.

Hopefully we adjust that going forward.

It's unfathomable to me why this wasn't the plan all along. Why the fuck are you moving an elite DT to be an average DE. If the answer is necessity then Veach needs a punch in the fucking mouth.

It's entirely possible that Jones agreed to the contract he agreed to in exchange for the promise he could play DE more.

That's my feel of the situation, anyway.

That doesn't reduce the problems he's having out there, but hey.

Wild speculation. It would be rare to have any sort of stipulation in his contract. % snaps at the position he wants? LOL. Spags will tell you where to line up.

We cut Clark after this season and I'll bet Veach addresses both DE positions.
