Common denominator is; Ravens secret sauce for 20 years has been unstoppable run game and dominant defense, regardless of the QB. Unfortunately, fans are delusional thinking LJ is the catalyst. He’s never been the reason.
You can kill Harbaugh all you want, with good reason, for some terrible second-half collapses over the years. This isn't on him. So what's the common denominator here?

Meanwhile, the Bills are a great matchup for the Ravens. They can’t stop the run (Henry) and they can’t run. Ravens will probably win, with or without Jackson.
Def came as a shock to the Ravens that Lamar couldn’t go, but Minter told me while he took majority of reps in practice, they went back and looked he was limited in what he could do. Lamar said if he can’t run, plant or have burst then it’s selfish to be out there. I was told he’s confident he will be back next week vs Bills #RavensFlock

Cam Newton. He would have fought tooth and nail for that thing, especially in a big game.

Jackson is not the problem. The FANS are the problem. They think he’s something that he’s not. They’re delusional and have confused athleticism with the QB position.
Don’t tell me shit about Lamar, he’s a bitch

I think he was getting walked down and staved off the embarrassment.
🚨BREAKING: Fantasy football owners and gamblers are furious with #Giants RB Cam Skattebo for going down instead of scoring an easy touchdown in overtime. Some are calling it “completely unacceptable” and saying this should never happen. Fans are livid😳

It’s hard to hold and/or build a lead if you can’t run and your defense can’t get off the field. These 2 elements have been the catalyst of the Ravens success for 20 years. The flaw with the Ravens and their fans is, they think Jackson is the catalyst.
Jesse Minter was asked if he's worried that blown leads are becoming a psychological issue: "Yeah, but only we can change that. That's clearly ... a little bit of that, but we have control of that. And that's what we need to understand."

Buffalo is a good matchup for the Ravens. They can’t stop Henry and they don’t run the ball very well. With or without Jackson the Ravens probably win.
Minter said they’ll know more about Lamar’s status for Buffalo over the next couple of days.

Mike Allstate must be scratching his head?
Did you ever think we would see a penalty for unnecessary roughness on a RB who was just running forward into a crowd of defenders? I have seen 1000s of RBs do exactly same thing in past 50 years and never get a penalty??? What a joke!

Yeah, they’re doing their best to keep him propped up, but no one is falling for it. There is ZERO interest in Sanders from other NFL teams. They’re trapped, they want to create value, BUT if he plays he is exposed!
Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com clarified that Shedeur Sanders will remain the Browns’ No. 2 quarterback even after Dillon Gabriel returns from injured reserve. "Shedeur Sanders will still be No. 2 when Dillon Gabriel is activated this week off injured reserve. Gabriel’s 21-day practice window closes by Wednesday, and the Browns will activate him back to the 53-man roster. But when they do, Sanders will still be the No. 2. Some have speculated that perhaps Gabriel would move into that spot ahead of Sanders, but that’s not the case." (cleveland.com/browns/2026/10…)

Too funny. Ravens fans are delusional. They fail to realize that WITH Jackson they always lose these kind of games. When Henry is contained and the Defense doesn’t dominate, they lose! Period. Jackson has NEVER been the reason they win or lose.
Ravens fans didn’t hold back their criticism of Lamar Jackson missing his third consecutive game with an ankle injury, saying he doesn’t know how to play hurt. Pregame coverage brought to you by @jonesjunction

Cowards and punks.
Bro just wanted to go on a walk with his girlfriend when a group of black guys tried to harass her and bro showed why he was the MAN🤬

😀 Sarah, the Ravens have blown MANY double digit leads over the last few years, almost all of them with Jackson at the helm! Like most, you refuse to acknowledge - As the Ravens go, Jackson goes.
Reaction to Ravens LAYING DOWN in second half collapse to Bengals. Jesse Minter admits his team's second-half meltdowns are psychological. Can a Lamar Jackson return turn things around? youtube.com/watch?v=aR6Q7NYP…

It’s not that nobody wants to talk about it, in football THEY KEEP SCORE! How you get there doesn’t matter as that is subjective. Winning and losing is absolute.
Deshaun Watson has been awful for 3 weeks in a row and no one wants to talk about it

You are correct. And Lamar is correct when he says that he can’t do it from the pocket. That’s his Achilles heal. No pun intended.
Ladies and gentlemen, I hate to be the one to say it… Lamar Jackson’s run may have come to an end. He’s telling you, “if I have to do it from the pocket, I can’t do it.” He’s getting to an age and “mileage” point in his career where that athleticism is suddenly… gone.

I find it interesting that you intimate Jackson’s absence and two paragraphs later you reference the many blown leads, HE is the guy who blew most of those leads! I’ve been saying it for years, Jackson’s a front runner. As long as Henry is unstoppable and the defense dominates….
FINAL: Bengals 35, Ravens 13 Bottom line: This was an embarrassment. —Without the injured Lamar Jackson, Ravens drop to 0-2 in the AFC North for the first time in 19 years --It’s the 17th time since 2020 that Ravens have blown a double digit lead (worst in NFL) —Baltimore allowed 35 points in second half, which are the most allowed by Ravens after halftime in four years --Next up: At the Bills (5-1), who are coming off a bye

He’s getting it done, doesn’t matter how. Think about it, 9 years and Lamar Jackson has NEVER got it done when the Ravens are in an ugly low scoring game. Let that sink in. This is the 5th time, THIS YEAR!

Too funny. Pay attention Alex, the Ravens NEVER win these games(Henry bottled up, defense not dominant), WITH Jackson. He’s not a factor, he simply benefits from the Ravens dominating games. Look it up!
“This is a team that’s capable of winning the Super Bowl. … In order to do that, we gotta get Lamar [Jackson] healthy.” —Alex Smith on the Ravens' bigger picture and why their QB's health matters more than just today 🏆

This is the problem with the Browns fan, inability to manage their expectations.
I expect Deshaun Watson to have by far his best game tomorrow.. like the first half of the Steelers game but all 4 quarters lighting it up. There will be favorable scenarios all over the field make reads & execute.
