the 3rd and 4 with about 90sec left in the 4th. had better haunt the OC because that was a garbage call. and the way the boot was designed felt like a broken play because it wasnt a pitch and just clogged up any lane. and with how fast Jackson took off was not designed to be a real pass play but open up a lane. or Jackson just took off super early and decided to run.
Was designed like that as a dual option - either throw it to the flat if he's wide open, or keep it and stay in bounds. They needed to ensure they stayed in bounds to take 40 seconds off the clock. I don't think it was a bad decision. Ravens only converted 3 of 12 3rd downs and Lamar wasn't comfortable for long stretches at that point. I don't hate the play call if I'm a Raven supporter.
Watching that final play again, man that was sh*t by Humphery, didn't even try to get a hand on Jones at the LOS
He got rubbed by his own team mate which created the separation for Zay Jones. The issue I would have with it is that Humphrey completely gave up as soon as the ball was in the air. Gotta put some pressure on the receiver to make the catch.
Raiders show up for a couple of games a year and shock people then need a meltdown by a sh*t team like the Jets to scrape by for a win.
If no one takes you serious, you cant be a threat.
Beat KC at Arrowhead, The Browns in Cleveland and the Saints in Vegas last year. Also had defensive meltdowns against the Chargers and Miami that were simply inexplicable. I would suggest they're a team on the rise now that they actually have a competent defensive coordinator who knows how to put together and implement a sound scheme.
