Monday Night Football - Chiefs v Ravens - Pre-Game Chatter and Game Thread

[BINGBING 224]

Lamar should come in and play LB in place of Queen.

[Hot Sauce Guy 9,442]

Jersey. Terrible call.

I hope the 2nd half scoring is all FGs. 100%. Less than 5 of them, preferably. 

Oof, good luck?  I say take the loss and enjoy this show.  As a Broncos fan, the Chiefs winning is never good, but Mahomes is just too fun to not enjoy watching.

[BobbyLayne 11,619]

Looks like he missed the deep slant there

[The Frankman 3,399]

And they give it to Thompson and he fumbles...

 

Welcome to the permabench, Darwin Thompson.

CEH hit the B button. 

[Ghost Rider 6,561]

Wow, huge play.

[Truebluey 489]

Back to the bench for Darwin

I also bet the chiefs +3.5, much more than the under. 

should work out ok. 

[wgoldsph 1,018]

Reid just calling the joke stuff now

 

Then Thompson fumble.  Hopefully this drive will make it the all CEH game from now on.

[Hot Sauce Guy 9,442]

Oops.

I thought so too initially, but in hindsight, he was covered

I guess that's why Darwin Thompson rarely gets touches.

Bad call. No horse collar.

Yesterday, the TV ref said that pulling the runner down from behind with the jersey is a horse collar. That was new to me. 

[The_Man 4,610]

Justice for the bad horse collar call

Ravens need to run. They had that play with Boyle and Ricard in the backfield that split the D right up the gut and haven’t run it again

[conlilnew 401]

Baltimore needs a TD here to keep the Chiefs interested. 

[The Frankman 3,399]

Like I was trying to say before Mahomes made that rainbow throw to CEH, now Ravens need to run their normal offense. If you get stopped, you get stopped playing your game. No pass-pass-pass here.

 

EDIT: And a first play pass and terrible blocking on a screen.

All he had to do is hold onto the ball and the Chiefs likely win with another score. Now, you give Baltimore a shot at it.

So, Darrel Williams is the play if CEH missed time?

[rockaction 27,879]

Pulling the jersey down like that is indeed a horse collar tackle. Jersey or pads.

[NutterButter 6,282]

Another drop.  Doesnt help he got run over.

We’ve seen it before this year (the first TNF or SNF) but the clarification then was it doesn’t have to be inside the collar but near the nameplate. That one tonight was middle of the number.

[Hot Sauce Guy 9,442]

Ingram’s grandchildren felt that hit. 

[Hot Sauce Guy 9,442]

The RPO doesn’t look like it’s very complex. Chiefs sniffed that one out. 

[Truebluey 489]

Chiefs looked like they bet the Ravens to get 20, helping out here

[BobbyLayne 11,619]

Usually a little sharper by third preseason game

[The Frankman 3,399]

Whelp they just gave back the 5 yards. Baltimore penalties killing themselves.

[Hot Sauce Guy 9,442]

What was that.  

[The Frankman 3,399]

Brown WTF you running backwards for? Oh my God Baltimore killing themselves with this crap.

[Ghost Rider 6,561]

Great 3rd down throw under pressure.

[Hot Sauce Guy 9,442]

Brown had the 1st, ran the wrong way, then had to dive for the 1st? Wtf

Really. Even from half way down his back. 
 

Football rules are going too far when you can’t pull a guy down by the mid back of his jersey. 

[SoBeDad 2,432]

>> Horse Collar Tackle

Definition

Tackling another player by grabbing the inside of an opponent's shoulder pads or jersey from behind and immediately yanking the player down. Exceptions: This is a legal tackle inside the tackle box. It is also not illegal just because a player is grabbed by the back of the jersey or pads before being brought down. It has to be a yank that takes them down, and it has to occur immediately.

Outcome: 15 yards <<

[Hot Sauce Guy 9,442]

I understand the players are tested, but spitting on the field seems like pushing it a little. 

Also that shoulda been a TD to Brown. 

[The Frankman 3,399]

Any time Jackson stays in the pocket that's a win for KC. I think he needs to take off more because KC is zoning a lot.

[BobbyLayne 11,619]

That Brown catch was the Ravens second first down since the opening drive

The other one was a defensive holding call

 

oh. lookey there, Lamar ran for another. on a roll now.

[jabarony 784]

Anyone know what ESPN did with the. Booger Mobile?

[The Frankman 3,399]

Finally the physical run game is getting used. Keep running that rock, that'll open up the deep shot.

[Truebluey 489]

The crowd seem weirdly out of it tonight. They react very late to the action. 

[BobbyLayne 11,619]

Ravens running the ball

cannot be stopped

should do this more right?

[The Frankman 3,399]

AUUGHH ANOTHER DROP.

 

Andrews hurt.

Edited September 29, 2020 by The Frankman

[BobbyLayne 11,619]

Gotta go

[Ghost Rider 6,561]

Ball was a bit underthrown, but could have been caught.

[Blackbear 546]

Andrews has to bring that in. My gawd. 

[Hot Sauce Guy 9,442]

Gotta catch that. 

[BobbyLayne 11,619]

aw 78 what

[BINGBING 224]

Can't believe Lamar dropped that TD

[drizzle 51]

Boy Andrews sure loves dropping passes. That's like 4 already?

[The Frankman 3,399]

False start on 4th and 1. WOW.

Edited September 29, 2020 by The Frankman

[Ghost Rider 6,561]

Ravens can't get out of their own way.  Crazy.
