NFL GDT: Week 16

[Halladay]

Ravens sideline is enthused.

 

[TheAngryHank]

I won by 5

 

[Unholy Diver]

49ers go 1-3 vs AFC North for the year

 

[StreetHawk]

Them not being able to score before the two minute warning is rather large.

The math is such that if you score pre 2 minute warning and kickoff is a touchback it means you can save a TO after first down as the 2 minute stops the clock. Would get the ball back at 1:40 with 1 TO.

But SF failed 4 times. Offence falls apart without Trent Williams. Rest of the OL is just average.

 

[Spring in Fialta]

Internet is flaming up about how many teams publically came out to say they weren't interested in Jackson last off-season.

something something he can't pass

 

[StreetHawk]

Can’t take a sack

Can’t be calling a long developing play with your backup even with dozens of starts under his belt in Darnold. Guy needs a check down option if the first read isn’t there.

 

[hatterson]

End of game time management was atrocious by the 49ers.

Sack happened at 1:55, false start at 1:23.

They let 30 extra seconds tick off the clock and forced their players to rush a 4th down play (leading to a penalty) instead of using a timeout.

 

[Terry Yake]

really need hamilton to be ok. D can't afford to lose him

 

[BKIslandersFan]

Can't see Bills or Chiefs beating this Ravens team in the playoffs.

First down Incompete pass. 2nd down run cmc but are short this hit 2 minutes. 3rd down is a long developing play ending in a sack. For sure won’t get ball back until under 1 minute and no timeouts left. Have a play for 4th and 1 ready but then it’s 4th and 15 and thus Shanny is scrambling.

Either you let some time come off the clock to get the right play (under 40 seconds) otherwise Bal drains the full 40 when they have the ball. At that point all you are doing is saving 10-12 seconds due to the saack

I can. Don't turn it over 6 times

 

[Squiffy]

Yuck. Said last week this one worried me as a 49er fan and wasn't off base. That's ok, good game Ravens, full marks on being the better team tonight.

Not terribly concerned that the 49ers won't win out for the NFC 1 seed, and hoping to see the Ravens again for the title with lessons learned.

The CMC run had to get in, it was over there. Don't mind not asking Trent to go back in, or Purdy, take your loss and move on to next week.

Were still fine going into 3rd down at 2min as they had all their TO. Means they get ball back around 1:35 left with no TO at say their 25. But they needed to score. Horrible 3rd down call. Where was the check down for his backup?

Well ya, touche, frankly I’d have run it again. Line was getting blown up every play at that point but I feel like a Deebo sweep off a CMC fake to the middle might have been something to try.

But again oh well, they didn’t lose that game on lousy call on 3rd and goal with 2m left down 14. Got filled in tonight, just hope they are healthy next week and it should be fine still.

Trent is all world. Rest of the line is just ok. Now they need to dress everyone to ensure they win their final 2 games to secure the bye.

 

[Halladay]

No reason to be overly concerned if you are the Niners unless those injuries are more than short term.

Agreed, was hoping they’d get to mail in the final week.

What do we need? 9ers win that seems likely, a Cowboys win which seems likely, and an Eagles loss that is unlikely next week to keep that alive? That’s week 18 off right?

9er fans hoping for Cowboys and Cardinals to win. It’s cats chasing dogs next week lol

 

[StreetHawk]

Eagles playing cards and giants.
Cowboys get lions and Wash
Niners get wash and rams. Rams need to win to secure a WC spot. 9-8 means tie breakers.

All teams in the hunt for top spot could really use the bye week.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Nice wake up call for the Niners. Few more weeks of work and then playoff time.

 

[Say Hey Kid]

Has he hit Brock Bottom? Purdy is now 5th in the MVP odds.

 

[BB88]

Jackson has been fairly mediocre as QB and he has the #1D in NFL doing all the work

Hard to see how he can be viewed as MVP

If anything should come from this game its the reality that Ravens D is best in league and has been among best for years (Not sure what happend to them in 2021)

He’ll win it, this game sadly quarantees it.

Let’s not act like Baltimore has been consistent this year, they’ve been up and down and certainly can be challenged

But when it comes to how media sees Bills and Chiefs it’s ridiculous.

They have the same record yet Chiefs are constantly talked as one of the best teams in football and a top contender while the Bills are lucky to make the playoffs

Mahomes has 25 TD’s and 17 turnovers, Allen 40 TD’s and 18 turnovers. Mahomes MVP candidate and not his fault while Allen is costing Bills this season, can’t be trusted

 

[Ace]

This is what an MVP looks like
