One team can run the ball while the other can't. It's all on CJ and the Ravens are just teeing off. Gonna get worse if they score again.

Maybe a QB spy would have stopped that play

There are so many options for Baltimore on 4th and 1. I'm surprised they ever get stopped.

You obviously don't get the spy concept. That was a misdirection run play on 4th and 1.

Looking grim for the battling CJs…

I am aware I still would have told someone to expect Lamar to pull it and follow him. If they get it still sure but they had no on one following Lamar at all

But but Troy didn’t think they should go

Troy's old school - defense is playing well so punt it. Troy's only option in his day was hand it to Emmitt.

Like that one big pass CJ hit to Nico Collins - Troy said it was gonna be a quick pass early

So you're telling me Troy would love him some Tressel ball?

Lot of nerves out there for the CJs…I remember when Eddie and the Titans had to play in Baltimore…similar results. Just a really hard place to win a playoff game.

True for Troy back then, but not this team and the game he’s calling. Pretty simple decision when you’ve got Lamar.

I agree. They are good running team. Adding Lamar to mix means you either have one less to commit to the run cause you account for Lamar or what just happened on 4th and 1 is at risk.

Slip out a TE or something and it should be damn near unstoppable

Oh, I don't know. Apparently all you need to stop him is a spy, even on a designed run with a lead blocker.
