Game Thread: Divisional Round Playoff Games

[DJ]

If they can run the ball like this, with or without Andrews, nobody will stop these guys.

Andrews allegedly should be back next weekend.

 

[HuskerOC]

Ravens are just dominating at the line of scrimmage now and the Texans defense is just worn out - barring a miracle this game is over.

Yep. Playoff football.

Ravens: 209 yards rushing
Texans: 31

Gotta be able to run the ball, and stop the run.

I got a feeling game #2 is going to look near identical.

The Packers have a good enough defense to keep them in the game and SF has essentially been off for 2 weeks since they rested their key players in the last game of the season.

Texans being steam-rollered, not even funny. looks like they lost all the wind in their sails.

"please make it end"

 

[Think McFly Think]

Baltimore sure looks the part to me.

Great season for the Texans.

It was a great season for them; they’ll continue to make noise in the AFC South for the foreseeable future I’d expect.

The Ravens are scary.

Lamar runs it in and that will seal it as the Ravens take a 21 point lead. Ravens have a very dangerous team, their D is very strong and their offense is much scarier than in past years because they have better weapons and Lamar is a better passer.

 

[Fred_Delosantos]

surprised he didn't get a penalty for running allaway into the tunnel.

The Ravens are scary.

If it's them vs SF in the Bowl I have them as a 3.5-4 point favorite (at least)

Won’t matter if he is, if they run the ball like this.

They won't..

Not against KC or Buffalo.

Ryans and Stroud could very well be Jacksonville's nightmare for awhile. Who saw that a year ago?

KC and Buffalo both gave up over a yard per carry more than Houston this year.

That's great.

The playoffs are a different animal.

Ok

Yeah, run defense and turnovers are probably the two biggest weaknesses of both KC and Buffalo.

I will say that historically KC has a few advantages against Baltimore although Im not sure Buffalo stands a chance

Stack the box and see if Jackson can beat them through the air. It's what any good defense does against a good running game.

They made a good run, good to see them building a solid team.

Great first season with Stroud and Ryans..
