Lefty,
Another 4th qtr lead choked off (this time +11) does this culminate enough for owner to move on from Dumbaugh or will the Lamar Injury / fake injury excuse be enough to see Harbs back next season? and the next and the next.

In the event Jackson really is injured and more or less permanently, Harbs gravytrain is gonzo.

Ownership is too conservative. I think they will likely give Harbs a pass on this season due to Lamar's various injuries this season. They are also missing Nnamdi Madubuike big time. There is legit fear he may never play football again with that neck injury.

But he's def gonna be on the hot seat next year. Gotta assume that a bad start prolly does him in, and if he starts of well then the Ravens be playing late into January because a poor finish could just as likely be the final nail on the coffin as well.

Edit: Holy shit! Every single caller I heard on my work commute wanted Harbs gone TODAY! Literally 100% of the callers. There have been grumbling and signs of bubbling frustration before, but it's never boiled over like this.

Feels like the Philbilly is about to pull one over on us tbh.

So who do we think is actually the favorite? Such a strange year, only the 49ers/Bills are really the teams we thought would be elite that actually are. I figured the Chargers would be up there because Harbaugh turns pretty much anyone into contenders immediately. Everyone else is a complete surprise imo

It’s like the NFC of the mid to late 00s when it was a random team each year who’d be the 1 seed then immediately fall off the next season and never be heard from again imo

Rams aren't a surprise tbh. They were prolly the second best team in the NFL last year as well, just lacking playoff experience with their new pieces.
