    Watching that game, I got the vision that the Jets were a cornered rat and the Ravens were the guy with a stick, prodding the rat playfully...knowing that the Ravens could take that stick and run it through the rat at any time. Harbaugh wasn't afraid of the Jets taking over on downs even at his 29.

    We're the most confident football team I've ever seen.

    I definitely would just do a power run. To drop back and pass down field in our own territory is just too risky

    The look on my face when they went for it and Lamar hit Mark Andrews.

    I generally don't like it, but if Andrews pulls the jump-hurdle move there, he scores.

    I’m sure it’s been mentioned but Harbaugh was sending the punt team on. Lamar waved them back to the sideline. Then when he probably could’ve comfortably scrambled for the 1st he took a shot 30 yards downfield instead. It was one of the wildest things I’ve ever seen lol. I legitimately just started laughing.

    it's possible that our terrible punt coverage factored into this decision. glad it worked out, but had the pass fallen incomplete we'd all be here talking about how stupid that playcall was. well, whatever, glad it worked out.

    Literally the previous drive we did a power run on 3rd and half a yard and got stuffed for a loss. They sold out for it again and Andrews busted wide open.

    Definitely because he's never fumbled in that situation..........

    When we had Flacco I felt we too seldom went for the kill when we had the lead. That's not the problem any longer.

    Like I said, I generally don't like it, and Andrews hit that ball he fumbled with his own knee...ball security is job one.
