Does Pacheco remind you of Ahmad Bradshaw?!
I'm sure having flashbacks watching him.

Not dissimilar. I think Pacheco may end up being the better runner of the two of them, but that's a decent comparison.

Bradshaw and Jacobs were torture on defenses.

Yes he certainly does.
And Pacheco is better than Barkley. Runs very very hard, catches it and picks up blocks too
I think the only real difference (if I recall correctly) I see is that AB had to battle through some pretty serious ankle issues...nevertheless he was a mighty tough hombre.

Ravens just dodged a bullet.
Ritchie James was a big loss IMHO

Was Kelce the top TE picked out of college in the draft?....guy is unbelievable

If he retires today he's in the HOF.
Its a shame the Giants can't draft guys like Kyle Hamilton.
How many balls has KCs D batted?

He was drafted at the end of the 2nd round.
This could easily be a 20+ lead for the Chiefs. Ravens can still win this.

But they won't. Not today against the Chiefs who are playing this game perfectly and making the Ravens play right into their game plan.
A lot is going to have to change for them to turn this around. They really weren't playing smart in gifting the Chiefs 30 yards to start that final drive of the half.
But we shall see.
Peace!

The Ravens have been great at making halftime adjustments. Whether they are able to do this effectively will tell the tale of the game.
The Chiefs have flicked the switch. They are playing inspired football and the Ravens seem shocked. Lamar looked very shaky in the first half. Redfaced
Ravens often play much better in the second half.
Point number 1 -
Spags 💙
Point number 2 -
This has been one of the best first halves I've watched all season.
Point number 3 -
Most of you probably aren't watching uk Sky TV but Jason Bell is garbage when he isn't being Osi's straight man.
Baltimore must stop the run if they want to win it.

Spags v MacDonald......one winner.
Travis Kelce is nearly half as good as Mark Bavaro.
High praise.
Ravens defense beginning to assert itself.
Another stupid Ravens penalty. Taunting, of all things. Mental mistakes will be the Ravens' ultimate undoing if they keep it up, regardless if they score here.
Zay goes astray. TAUNTING. Dumb. 3 PFs today. :doh:

Sadly, I believe if the Ravens score here, they will win the game. KC has done nothing this half.

I agree. But the mental mistakes will be their undoing if they cannot be disciplined enough to avoid stupid penalties.
Lets's see how the final quarter unfolds.
Spags Defense has been awesome.
Flowers is a jackass.
Fumble Zay.. no way...into the end zone. He deserved that. Game probably over. :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh:
Mahomes to Kelce = cheat code
Flowers looks like a bozo now. He taunts the Champs, then he loses the ball at the goal line for a touchback.
That's why they won't win today. The Chiefs know how to win these games. Seeing Flowers cut his hand on the bench in frustration is icing other cake. Literally, he pulled a Toney on his own team.
Ugh.
Now, another roughing the passer? The Chiefs are in their head now.
Need an all points bulletin on the whereabouts of one OBJ!

You have to be experienced or coached in a game like this not to give the game away with stupid mistakes and losing composure.
Maturity beating immaturity.
Ravens with the choke job.
Who said Toney was not playing? Zay became his understudy. He should get crushed for that series. :boooo:
I thought this game was the Ravens and picked them. They were clearly the best team in the conference all year.
KC defense has made a lot of plays
Awful third down call.
Jackson just awful today. This is on him as much as anyone.

Its post season Lamar.
Lamar choked this game away. Sorry.

Lamar's worst choke ever. Awful interception. Trying to do too much-no poise. Slamming helmets don't get it done..MVP.
Horrible decision by Lamar in a huge spot.
These long plays where Lamar scrambles for 5 after running around for 7 seconds, are not helping the Ravens
Seems like they took far too long.
Game over. Clark Hunt will be presenting the Lamar Hunt AFC Championship Trophy to none other than himself, again!
Congratulations on getting back to the show to defend your title, Chiefs! Well deserved!
Peace!
Jackson once again melts in the big spot.

I'm not sorry. His team let him down with bone head plays and stupid penalties which killed any chances. The better team won, hands down.
Peace!
Got to hand it to Spags and that D, they really destroyed one of the league's best offenses.
L Jackson hot garbage. RB throwing the ball. How many years now / never disproved he's not post season material as a passer.
Jan Stenerud making the presentation to Clark, and Clark's words about his parents underscore how strong a family run shop the Kansas City Chiefs are. A classy organization and deserved of defending their title in the upcoming Super Bowl.
Peace!

No doubt his playoff performances overall leave a lot to be desired.
I thought they should've called a pass interference in end zone - announcer was wrong. It happened before the ball reached the WR. Refs were the show today.
And the amount of holding NOT called was absurd. These are things that hurt Giants all the ti e because we always get flagged.
- Thoroughly impressed with Spags
- Not thoroughly impressed with Ravens defensive coaching
- Pacheco is an excellent RB (better then Saquon)
- Kudos for post game remarks by Andy Reid
- Was nice seeing Odell show up
- NFL got what they wanted - a Taylor Swift SuperBowl. May as well let her do the halftime show at this point

A lot of hot takes here. As much as I a hate this whole Taylor Swift thing/ Chiefs always in the SB -- Ravens sucked,
Pacheko is not better than Barkley either

As if Taylor Swift needs free advertisement and exposure, in the AFC Championship, no less!
I'd take Pacheco over Barkley in a heartbeat. Guy always seems to get the important yards that Saquon cannot consistently get
Barkley was better in 2018/2019 than what Pacheco is today.
Not anymore. Pacheco is the better player now. Barkley has had too many injuries. Lost all his burst.

Barley has always danced and hesitated. I wish there was a stat on how many times a RB just put the head down and ran into the oline. Whereas u watch a guy like McCaffrey or Pacheco and they pause a second and then drive!

Does he come with a HOF Coach, HOF QB, HOF TE, and top rated defense? You realize it is a lot easier when you have those right?
The Flowers fumble was obviously huge but Jackson's play is inexcusable. Bad passes and horrible decisions. Complete immaturity as well.

Absolutely I do!...but I also can see when a RB has great vision and pops. It was noticeable on Bradshaw immediately.

I also realize Barkley ain't worth big $$ at all.
