Talking about the five TD's by Lamar Jackson. Jeez Gary, what did you do? Did you send the Ravens some of your Kickapoo Joy Juice? These guys are outta' sight. If they don't make it to the Superbowl, I'll be very surprised. Who's gonna beat them? The whole team is playing lights out and Lamar Jackson is from another planet. So Gary, this may be your year for bragging rights . Good luck.

Thanks Chas - tonight's game was absolutely incredible. Not only is Jackson breaking records, he appears to be having a lot of fun doing so. I think that he is probably the most amazing quarterback in NFL history and will go down as such. And, at the rate he is going, he will likely beat Michael Vic's record by a wide margin.

Prior to tonight's game, I was a bit apprehensive because the Rams are a very good team. If Jackson can stay healthy, I'm confident the Ravens will be in the Super Bowl, and they will win!

Hope I can sleep tonight,

Gary

Well, my Eagles look very shaky and my (adopted) Falcons are done this season so I'll be (shamefully) jumping on your bandwagon for the remainder of the season. Actually, you don't have to have team loyalty to enjoy a great player and a great team. Luckily, he is complimented by one of the best defenses in the league. So, let's drink a toast to poor Tony and his Giants and enjoy the rest of the season.

chas

Gary although good now... Their sideline cockiness will be their doom in the playoffs...
They should calm that down...

Once you make the playoffs losing isn't an option..

Why not just enjoy the game and stop worrying about how YOU think the players should conduct themselves. Do you ever have anything good to say about ANYthing? And you're the one that complains about negativity. Jeez. I won't even say anything about how your post sounds 'cause it would be lost on you anyway.

I lost $ when the Ravens beat New England, but that showed me they were for real, and have played them 3 times since. All $ucce$$.

Don, even though my Falcons shut out the Saints last time, they've gone back to their losing ways again. I'd put my money on the Saints this upcoming game. I think that shutout was a fluke. Aside from the 49er's, the Saints, and of course Tom Terrific and his Pats, who else do see as a possible Super Bowl contender? Have a good Thanksgiving and don't OD on that turkey and stuffing .

Lighten up, Donny - they seem to be having fun on the sidelines as well as on the playing field. Nothing wrong with that. IMO, Lamar Jackson is nothing short of being the best quarterback in NFL history and I've been a big football fan since the early Baltimore Colts and Johnny Unitas. He was a record-setting quarterback, and the NFL's most valuable player in 1959, 1964, and 1967. He set those records because no one could ever seem to predict what he was going to do when he received the snap from center. Same goes for Lamar Jackson. The big difference is that Jackson is incredibly fast and agile when he sees an opening, whereas Unitas was not that fast, but often took advantage of the smallest opening in the line. Jackson has brought an incredible amount of excitement back into football and his passing game has really improved since the season began. No interceptions for much of the season and those passes look like the football was fired from a cannon with pinpoint accuracy.

I'm looking forward to next Sunday's 49ers game here at Baltimore,

Gary

Gary good luck throughout the playoffs...
Hmmmm...."The Tortois & the Hare" comes to mind....


Let's see what happens down the road...
As Yogi said ..."It ain't over till it's over"

I think the Ravens are good enough to get there. A lot depends on who stays healthy for which teams.

That says it well Don. I would hate to count out the Cheifs now that they are getting through their mid season injuries.

Ahh, my other 'favorite to watch' team. Nothing like a Mahomes 60 yarder to Tyreek Hill to get the old juices flowing. They'll be awesome once they find a defense.

chas

Growing pains ...
But my team is the only team in history to prove that a 14-6 record is better than 18-1 ... and they have 4 Super Bowl rings - how many teams can say that ?!?

And at least I don't jump on any bandwagons when my team is down ...
And while I enjoy watching Jackson play, let's not go crowning him the "best in history" until he HAS some HISTORY ...

Tony, just having a little fun with the football fans here, nothing serious, at least not on my part. I'm not really a bandwagon jumper; it's just a way of extending your season if your team isn't going to make the playoffs. It makes watching more interesting if you've got someone to root for. No hard 'insults' intended, just friendly 'razzing'. Okay?

chas

OF COURSE, chas ... we know better ...

But Gary is gushing so much I thought Jackson must have a YAMAHA label on his butt !!! ... just sayin' ...

Uh Oh Gary, I know you aren't going to take that lying down . He took a shot at both your team and your signature brand in a single post.



chas - potstirrer extraordinaire

I'm still trying to figure out what happen to the Eagles? Two years ago Super Bowl Champs, and now struggling to score a TD. They are playing like a NY team. (Yes a shot at Tony intended)

The Ravens and Jackson are playing great, but so were the Chiefs at one point. And NEVER EVER count the Patriots out. Belichick is the all time best at game planning opponents QB's, except for that time vs. Nick Foles and the Eagles.

Chas and I are in the same boat with the Eagles and our backup team the Falcons, so for this year, we are cheering on Gary's exciting Ravens.

Simple... They shouldn't of got rid of Foles!

And the TWO times against the GIANTS !!! just sayin' ...

My son is a Foles SuperFan, even before the Superbowl win. He's not only a good QB but has a very likable laid-back personality. Still, he was too good to keep as a back-up and (at the time) Wentz seemed more like a 'Franchise' QB. Love Mahomes but the Chiefs have too many Eagles leftovers to go anywhere (starting with Big Andy) .

chas

Better hold on to those two SB wins, Tony. Maybe your great-great-great grandchildren will get to see another one .

chas

And two more under a different coach and two different QBs

Hopefully

Gary, Gary, Gary. What a game. You can exhale now. I usually hate games in the rain but the rain didn't hinder the excitement in that game at all. To their credit, SF put up a hell of a fight. Could've gone either way. Garoppolo has nothing to be ashamed of. Great game. Congrats.

chas

I agree, Chas. I topped off a glass of ice cubes with Jim Bean 20 minutes before the end of the game - told my wife that if the Ravens didn't score on that last drive, they would probably lose to SF, but they pulled it off with the aid of the league's best field goal kicker. I no longer have any finger nails - bit them all off during the game.

Jackson, IMO, was incredible and though he experienced his first fumble, he retained his composure and appeared to be very upset with himself.

Next Sunday should be a bit easier. (Fingers crossed.)

Gary
