Leading Off
Houston turns down for Watt, and turns down the lights on the Ravens’ playoff hopes. They’re still there, but they’re dim.
The Ravens sing Christmas songs to try to get our minds off that terrible loss. Some are good, but most aren’t any better than they were in Houston.
Takeaways from the loss to the Texans
Playing “bad” teams down the stretch seems good in theory, but the Jags and Texans have busted out trick plays because they have little-to-nothing to lose, and for the most part, the trick plays have worked.
Matt’s 5 Takeaways:
- Ravens got beat by a backup (4th string!) quarterback
- What has happened to the running game?
- Turn down for Watt – where was our plan for the best defensive player in the game?
- Joe Flacco had perhaps the worst day of his career
- Ravens lost control of their playoff destiny
Tyler Thigpen may be the Quarterback we face Sunday, lets hope he eats some Wendys Saturday night.
This Weekend
Potential Browns QB Tyler Thigpen has had an interesting go of things lately.
According to a S.C. Highway Patrol incident report, Horry County police officers who were responding to a call at the BP gas station at U.S. 17 Bypass and 10th Avenue North saw a black Cadillac sport utility vehicle pull up to the nearby Wendy’s drive-thru. After about 20 minutes, Horry County police noticed the truck hadn’t moved.
The officers approached the Cadillac and saw that Thigpen was asleep in the driver’s seat with his foot on the brake. Horry County police said it took several minutes to awaken him. When they did, Thigpen told police he was confused, didn’t know where he was or how he had gotten there, according to the report.
The Ravens have won six straight against the Browns at home, and John Harbaugh/Joe Flacco are 12-1 against Cleveland. The Ravens are 10 points away from their highest-scoring offense ever.
Is Harbaugh at his best when the chips are down?
