The late, double-digit leads squandered by the Baltimore Ravens over the years continue to stack up as the men of John Harbaugh inexplicably choked away another winnable game in Buffalo on Sunday night. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss (another) unthinkable loss by the offensive Ravens who were defenseless late against Josh Allen and the Bills in Orchard Park. What the heck happened?

Nestor Aparicio and Luke Jones discussed the Baltimore Ravens’ unthinkable late loss to the Buffalo Bills, highlighting the team’s dominance with an average of 8.6 yards per play and a 40-25 lead.

Despite Derek Henry’s 169 yards and Lamar Jackson’s performance, the team faltered in the final minutes, allowing Buffalo to score 25 points. The loss, coming in week one, raises concerns about the team’s ability to perform in critical moments, especially in January.

SPEAKERS

Nestor Aparicio, Luke Jones

Nestor Aparicio  00:01

Welcome home. We are W, N, S, T, am 1570 tassel, Baltimore. We are Baltimore positive. We are positively going to be doing the Maryland crab cake Tour presented by the Maryland lottery. I will have to do Raven scratch offs next Tuesday at the Beaumont Catonsville. Be joined by Councilman Pat young. He’s running for Baltimore County Executive, amongst some others, including my pal Chad, cause he’s gonna come on talk about law, legality and Schoolhouse Rock here in America. But I don’t know we had Sunday night football from Orchard Park, New York. I wish I could do a better what’s it? Collinsworth’s kid? I wish I could channel his voice. I’ll do that for you. Luke Jones, saw was up late. I was up late. You were up late. We were all up late, just like you were Saturday night with the no hitter in progress and the Camden Yards miracle. What a weekend it was, Luke. I have not spoken to you. Alan McCallum, and I did an hour just off of Davey Johnson’s death. And 2131 that’s now available Baltimore positive. And I even said, Alan, I don’t think I’m going to run that on the radio, because I like, we have to do ravens, ravens, ravens, because Monday, Monday, Monday, and they lost, lost, lost, and I mean these double digit losses, and how this adds up for Harbaugh, how this adds up for the franchise, and what a loss like Sunday night means for January again, and having to pack bags maybe, if it comes down to that, just, um, I want to say unthinkable loss, because they, they lose two or three like this every

Luke Jones  01:30

year, right? Not like this. I mean, this was extreme. They’ve they’ve lost a couple that are in the stratosphere of this one. But, I mean, you just made the comment, I venture to guess there are a number of people who actually went to bed. I mean, that’s how in control it was with 10 minutes to my

01:52

wife being one of them, Bob, yeah, right, yeah.

Luke Jones  01:56

And again, look, I mean, we, we’ve seen this. I mean that we’ve seen them squander double digit losses. But, I mean, this was a game that they had absolutely dominated with their offense. I mean, they,

Nestor Aparicio  02:09

they averaged 8.6 yards per play, Nestor, I mean, it’s, it was 10 yards of play for a long time during the game.

Luke Jones  02:16

It was, it really was. And I mean, I go back to the moment that I thought it was over. You know, for all intents and purposes, it was Lamar is wild scramble, where it looked like it was going to be a 20 yard loss, that he ends up turning it into a gain. And then Henry runs 46 yards for a touchdown. But you kind of look at what happened from that point, Tyler loop. This is the extra point.

02:37

But once you get to 40, you think we got 40 points,

Luke Jones  02:41

they can’t get to 40, is what you’re thinking, right, right? And let’s be clear, if they hold on and they win and the final five minutes are normal, we’re still talking about the fact that the defense wasn’t great by any stretch of the imagination. And I’d be reminding everyone, hey, it is Josh Allen. It is the bills. I’m not expecting them to look like the 2000 ravens and and tossing a shutout, but when you do what they did in the fourth quarter, and more specifically, in the final what, six, seven minutes of the game. And yeah, I get it. And John Harbaugh cited it, the bills got a little lucky with the deflection, the touchdown catch off the deflection on fourth down. But they were awful. The special teams were awful throughout the night. And think about how that factored late in the game. You know, loop misses the Extra Point. Trenton Simpson can’t down the punt at the one yard line. That puts buffalo on the 20 when they should have been at the two inch line after a great Punt by stout, I mean just too many mistakes. And I mean it really, as I just said. I mean, this was a little more extreme than usual, and it’s obviously more magnified being week one, and it’s this great Sunday night game that was a great game. I mean, if you take take away the the outcome and the ramifications for what it means for Baltimore and and this team specifically. I mean, it was tremendous theater, and who’s very entertaining, but it’s a game that, I mean the ravens to say they should have won. I mean, is, is it under it’s like saying water is wet. So it’s just absolutely incredible to see how well that was going for them, specifically offensively, but just in general. I mean, you’re up 40 to 25 and then how much had to go wrong in the Final Four minutes, six minutes of play for that to happen? I mean, it really is explicable, inexplicable. I mean, I I rewatched the the final 10 minutes of the game, and you just like I said, Tyler loop missed extra point. They even got to stop after that, and then they got the ball back, but they had a third and eight to try to convert, to try to move the chains. Tylen Wallace commits a false start, and then you get that great punt and Simpson can’t down it at the goal line. There, I. Uh, yeah, as I mentioned, the Coleman touchdown catch, yeah, there’s some bad luck off a deflection there. I mean, there’s not a whole lot you can do to plan for something like that happening. But even after that, then Derek Henry, who hardly ever fumbles, he fumbles, and then Allen scores a touchdown. Buffalo goes for two again. Nate Wiggins makes the breakup. And you’re thinking, all right, as bad as it feels, as nerve wracking as it is, this offense is in grade all night. And then what do we see? They hand it off to Henry. He gets what? One yard. If you go back and look at that, Andrew Voorhees got abused on that play by by Ed Oliver, I mean, just pushed him right back into Henry’s path. So failed to execute there on second down, I assume you give Derek Henry the ball again instead, Derek Henry comes off the field entirely, and you give it to zay flowers.

Nestor Aparicio  05:57

I can, I can live with giving it to zay flowers, I guess. I guess. But don’t take Derrick Henry off the field there. I mean, why? I mean, you’re already doing buffalo a favor there, you know, because then they’re, they’re focusing on Lamar running the ball, or, you know, like I said, someone carrying the ball. That’s not akin to doing it very often. I found play calls to be interesting all the way around, because I thought Josh Allen throwing the ball on the two point conversion was like, What are you doing? You know, you have you’re so multiple, why would you throw an errand pass on a two point conversion to tie the game? Like I just extension plays. Both of these guys extend plays, and both of these guys should be automatic from a two point conversion, like getting two two and a half yards at the goal line with these guys who can move a little bit and throw and the kind of weapons they have, I’m just blown away that they’re that red zone isn’t just a death sentence when you have this kind of quarterback, because that’s what I believe seven years ago. I believe seven years ago you just would never be able to stop a Lamar offense at the hash on a two point conversion they just would use, wouldn’t have enough helmets to stop that’s what I think, from a lineup standpoint, on a two point conversion. And yet, these teams throw it all the time, and I don’t understand

Luke Jones  07:14

that at all. And I will say, and I’m looking at it right now, the Ravens were first in red zone offense last year. Buffalo was second in red zone offense, right? So, of course, when you have a few like that, I mean, I mean, it’s going to be more magnified. But, you know, even, even the third down play where they’re throwing, if you go back and look, Lamar actually ran out to Hopkins, and they actually directly speak a few seconds before the snap, and Hopkins runs around three yards, three yards short of the sticks, right? I mean, and then you have to punt it back so it comes

Nestor Aparicio  07:48

down, made a hell of a catch, though. I mean, he did look, let’s be very clear. They played great for a long time. Yeah, the offense, specifically the defense, know the special teams know the offense was great until the final three drives, and that’s where, once again, this football team, no matter how great it might look for 50 minutes or 55 minutes, they that was a master class at the end of the game. Well, my hands are around my neck right now because, like you know, when you lose 17 double digit games. John Harbaugh, when you’ve you know what I mean, like, when the number starts to add up, it just starts to be really, really piss poor strategy. Piss poor use of your of your assets, piss poor use of the clock. Piss poor use of your timeouts. Piss poor use of your challenges, just across the board, and then the execution alone, then the fact that you got to get 10 yards, you got four plays to do it, and you can’t do it. And with the game on the line, you decide, okay, we’ll punt here. You know, fourth down. You know, fourth and three or whatever, we’re gonna punt now. And after running this offense for seven years this way, like, I don’t know, it’s like, you know, I always split aces and eights, except when I don’t at the end of the night at the casino when I’m ready to lose everything. Well, it’s

Luke Jones  09:10

not just going for it on fourth and three, right? And fourth and three isn’t the same as fourth and one. We understand that I wouldn’t go for it

Nestor Aparicio  09:17

there. And he said in the post game, everybody in the world would have punted, yeah. But the idea is, you’ve got fat backs. You got the best offense in the history of the game. It’s the fourth quarter. You’re on the road. You’ve had the game won three different times. Get a first down. I mean, you got three plays to get 10 yards,

Luke Jones  09:32

get them. It’s not just that, though it’s your defense isn’t stopping them. So you’re we all think back to what the Colts and the Patriots remember years and years ago, the Patriots went for a fourth down and and this was at a time when there were far fewer instances of offenses going forward on Bella chick looked like the village idiot that Ella check was was kind of ahead of the curve in in the thinking that I’ve got four downs to get a first down my defense. Is not stopping the opposition. I’m going to try to win the game here. He tried it, and it didn’t work out, right? The Ravens, the opposite here. They could have tried to essentially win the game there, if they can convert. They did it. They punted. And then the defense, and more specifically, I mean, the defense struggled all night, right? I mean, there’s bad tackling and instances of not being very good. But again, I was willing to chalk up what we had seen over the first 50 minutes, 55 minutes of that football game to it’s Josh Allen and the bills are really good too, right? I mean, great offensively, but over that last drive, over the last couple drives. I mean, the tackling Jair Alexander. I mean that the bills just flat out picked on him on that last drive. And for as much as we spent time talking about his health, and I know he talked after the game in the locker room, I saw some of the comments. I mean, he he owned the fact that, hey, I need to do a better job. But that’s where you look at it and say, Hmm, you kept him off the practice field for three weeks for a physical reason. And I’m not saying that he was jaking it or anything like that, but there’s a reminder that at some point in time you got to get out there, and you’ve got to get ready to play football games. And he did not look ready to play. I mean, he was, he was not good. So, I mean, all of this, it’s such a frustrating finish to what should have been a very celebratory tone with how they played for most of the night. As we said. I mean, the Ravens offense was absolutely tremendous. There was so much to like, including the the Hopkins touchdown. I mean, Derek Henry with 169 yards. I mean, there were two, there are only two other 100 yard rushers around the league going into Monday Night Football, you know, for around the league for week one. And Henry had that in the first half, right? I mean, he was phenomenal. Lamar was great. You know. I mean, Lamar, did Lamar like things, but my goodness, got to finish a football game. And when this happens in week one, given the history you said it, I mean, the ramifications for the fact that buffalo now has a head to head, they’re one and, oh, the chiefs lost on Friday night. So, I mean, you you could have had a game on them as well, knowing that you’re playing them in a couple weeks at arrowhead, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, both one. But more than that, this team could go win their next 16 games. And, my goodness, their talent, I’m guessing they’re going to figure out things on defense like they did last year, right? They could go 16 and one, but because this happened again, are you any more confident about January? I mean, are Is there any thought that it’s going to have a different outcome, that it’s going to end differently? I mean, you just don’t trust this football team when the lights are brightest, and it’s truly, truly crunch time, because they don’t finish football games. So it’s just incredibly frustrating. And you said it, and this is where John Harbaugh does have to own it more, right? I mean, because he’s a CEO coach, right? He’s not, he’s not an offensive minded coach, he’s not a defensive minded coach, right? And he’s a special teams coordinator once upon a time, but he’s been a head coach in the National Football League far longer now than he was a special teams coordinator in Philadelphia, right? So I think even that part of it’s unfair to to judge his identity in that way, but he is a CEO, front facing coach in the sense that he’s not calling the offense or calling the defense like Mike McDonald is a defensive guy coaching in Seattle right now, right? So when you have these kind of breakdowns, when it’s mistakes, mental mistakes, clock questions, decision making, questions that I mean that has to fall on the head coach. This team should have won this football game. There’s no way in heck they should have lost this football game. And there were enough breakdowns across the board where, I’m sorry, you’ve got to look at John Harbaugh and you know, his biggest critics have been saying that for a long time, and I’ve really pushed back on that. And look, let’s be clear this, this is a Super Bowl winning coach and someone who’s won a ton of games in the same way you could talk about Mike Tomlin in Pittsburgh, right? Even though they haven’t won a playoff game in almost a decade now. But, man, that can’t happen. There’s no way that should happen, but it happened. It happened again, right? Going back the last few years, it happened

Nestor Aparicio  14:28

again in Buffalo to start the season after the revenge game, the MVP thing, the standings, the standings, the standings, January, January, January, just all along the line. This was the game that couldn’t happen in. I mean, if it happens to the Cleveland Browns, you feel bad about it. It’s a one off, but it’s the Cleveland Browns. When it happens to Buffalo, it’s magnified times three, because we’re going to play this one out all year long. And like their schedule, the teams I saw the weekend, Cleveland looked formidable against Cincinnati. Cincinnati. Looks formidable and Pittsburgh, I may have been making fun of Aaron Rodgers for eight months. I watched him play the first quarter, and I said, they’re gonna be a better football team, and then Jalen Ramsey’s gonna start five fights with somebody, somebody in the Ravens gonna throw a punch at that guy in week 13, like I’m looking at the Steelers and thinking, Yeah, we all slept on them. They’re gonna win some games. They’re gonna win some games with their he stays upright. They’re gonna win games. They will, but their defense has to be better. Their defense was pu until the very end of the football game. It was, yeah, kind of the their defense rose to the occasion at the end despite the fact that they had a lousy day. But, you know, we’ll get it, but I’m just talking about like, what’s next is what we’re gonna talk about this for a day or two or five or a week or whatever, but we’re gonna talk about this for four months, because this was a loss to Buffalo to start this right in a game that was different than losing to the chiefs in an opener, where, you know, you could play hard, play well and all that. This was a dominant effort that was just completely pissed away at Owen one.

Luke Jones  16:01

Yeah, it was. And look, I mean what you said about the rest of the division and games coming up, I have every bit of confidence that the ravens are going to make corrections, and they’re going to win a heck of a lot of football games, and I still think they’re going to win the division. None of that

Nestor Aparicio  16:16

changes. I’m writing a rip job on them that will. You know, hardball never reads my work, wink, wink, that that will be memorable. But I also think they’re probably going to win the Super Bowl still. You know, I feel like, if I’m writing Purple Rain three, this is that setback, thing that puts them in a different trajectory, because it’s not like they’re not good.

Luke Jones  16:39

Same was true last year. Same was true the year before. Same was true in 2019 I mean, I I’m not confident that they’re going to win the Super

16:46

Bowl, because we still have to be good

Luke Jones  16:47

on a night in January. Yeah. I mean, you the skeptic, the harshest critic, could say, well, at least they didn’t wait till January to do this. They did this on opening night, right? My wife

Nestor Aparicio  16:57

said that at the end, yeah, right, where they left off so, you know, and

Luke Jones  17:02

I mean that, that that, for me, is what’s so frustrating about this, because, again, they could win their next 16 and go 16 and one. I’m obviously not predicting that, but if I looked into the purple crystal ball, I’d believe that part. But what you just said about the Super Bowl, no, I’m not a believer, until I see them win a game like this, right? Like like this, and even with everything that went sideways, I’ve

Nestor Aparicio  17:25

never seen Marlon Humphrey or Lamar Jackson or Ronnie Stanley win a game like this. None of them, I mean,

Luke Jones  17:31

and let’s be clear, they’ve won big games in September and October and November and December. They have

Nestor Aparicio  17:38

freight train teams. They have gone out and won games like they won against buffalo last year, where they just smear them, you know what I mean, like, and they win those games. And then there’s other games where they’re sort of smearing them and sort of playing a cat and mouse game. And 17 different times in our balls administration, they’ve pissed away double digit lead. It’s, it’s an uncanny number. It really is,

Luke Jones  18:00

it is. And I’ll also say there aren’t many head coaches who are with a team long enough to be that have that many. So again, context is fair. I want to be fair while being critical. But I mean, it’s just, when will they learn? When will they learn? I mean, that that’s what it comes back to, this, this should this has every making on paper of being, having a chance to be the best team in the history of the franchise. I mean, this offense is incredible, and now you add DeAndre Hopkins, who I don’t think is going to put up big numbers in terms of volume, and I think we, we even saw that play out on Sunday night. You know, zay flowers is the clear number one wide receiver on this team, but

Nestor Aparicio  18:42

Hopkins also late. He can lay claim to I can still do this. Sure.

Luke Jones  18:49

I said, What did I say to you the moment that they signed him? This is, this is kind of like the Odell Beckham signing, except at the appropriate price point in this and the expectations are, he can be a number three receiver, and he he might only have five or 600 yards receiving over the course of the season, but you know what? Seven touchdowns he might make, five plays just like that one he made on Sunday night, or somewhere along those lines? Well, in the third quarter when

19:13

you need it too, right?

Luke Jones  19:15

Red Zone target, 5050, 5050, guy on the outside, you know? And that’s what that was. I mean, it’s not like the coverage was bad on that play. I mean, it’s made a one handed catch. So, so there’s so much to love and but sloppy one one sloppy on special teams. And again, even through the first 50 minutes, I was still willing to say, you know, defense definitely have things to clean up. There’s no doubt about that. But I’m also recognizing you’re on the road. You’re facing the reigning MVP, an offense that is almost as good as the Ravens. I understand you’re going to give up some points, but Josh Allen in the fourth quarter, he had 251 yards in the fourth quarter. Nestor. Yeah. I mean, that’s absolutely, it’s astounding he had a night in a quarter. Yeah. I mean, his numbers, it’s not that I thought he was bad over the course of the night, but his numbers were quite pedestrian for what Josh Allen can do going into the fourth quarter. And I mean, it’s just, it’s unbelievable to that we’re having this conversation. Mean, the the idea where I was when, after Henry scored the 46 yard touchdown, even after Luke missed the Extra Point, you kind of looked at it and you said, Oh, well, that’s not ideal for the rookie.

Nestor Aparicio  20:36

I almost tweeted. You know, if he’s gonna miss one, miss one, when you get a 15 point, it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t then it’s a point that does not matter. And in the end, it was the point that mattered.

Luke Jones  20:47

Yeah, it mattered. I mean, it just absolutely, you know the

Nestor Aparicio  20:52

two words I never heard on the broadcast last night, your two words I never heard, Justin Tucker, Justin Tucker, Justin Tucker, Justin because they’re running from it, and I’m not going to let them

Luke Jones  21:02

well, and I’m not going to let them, but I will say this. I mean, hey, Luke did a nice job with the couple field goals. I mean, you look at that first drive. I mean, they pushed, you know? They they fall back to it being a 52 yard attempt. He drilled it. He drilled a 49 yarder right before halftime. Unfortunately, there’s another example where I won’t let the defense off the hook. You know, Luke makes a field goal with 31 seconds, and you let them kick a field goal at the end of the half. I mean, think how big those three points ended up being, right? I mean, where they get out of bounds with, you know, they look at it and they put one second back on the clock. I mean, it’s just those are the things that this team continues to just stub its toe and stub its toe and stub its toe and stub its toe, and most the time they they that doesn’t matter, right? Because they’re so dominant on offense. And like I said, I think they’ll figure it out on defense. I mean, certainly they’ll figure it out against lesser opponents, right? I mean, the last year we saw how bad the defense was through the first past. Defense was through the first 10 games, and then what it looked like after the bye week. It was markedly better, albeit not against the the greatest line of opponents, necessarily. But the numbers still spoke for themselves. But I mean, it’s just you hate to not give the opponent any credit at all. And look, Josh Allen and the bills deserve credit. I mean, even if they got lucky with the Coleman catch off the deflection, they made their own luck, right? Whereas the ravens, it’s the Ravens get into that late game death spiral and they just go down right the the ship, this just sinks. You know, they’re like the Titanic in the last five minutes of that football game. And we’ve just seen that too much, right? I mean, someone make a play, someone make a play, and just no one could make a play in the last five minutes of that football game. So, boy. I mean, you don’t have time to to sit here and and sulk and, you know, be disappointed, because you know you’ve got to get ready for Cleveland and week two. And to your point, not that I’m afraid of the Cleveland offense, but Cleveland defense. Go look at what they did against Cincinnati in the second half. I mean, Joe burrow and the Bengals did nothing offensively in that second half. You know, their defense played better than you might have thought, but so you’ve got to turn the page. I don’t know the silver lining in this one, at least it didn’t end their season. I’ve got nothing beyond that. It just started it, yeah, I mean, it just again. And as I’m working on it, Baltimore positive.com, it’s, you know, the Ravens didn’t waste any time letting you know they haven’t learned anything, right? They haven’t learned that lesson yet, and until they do, that’s why, yeah, I will continue to doubt them in January, and I’m not going to be someone that’s jumping on the Super Bowl bandwagon, as so many pundits were, and understandably so, with what it looks like on paper, but what we saw over the last five minutes is exactly why I wasn’t as eager to jump on that bandwagon. And like I said, they could win the next 16 they might. Who knows? I’m still going to have major doubts about January, because this team just continues to show who they are in those kind of critical moments against Kansas City and especially now buffalo. It’s just very, very disappointing and extremely frustrating to watch that, because this team has all the makings of being something really special, but it was anything. But at the end of the game, Luke Jones and I

Nestor Aparicio  24:37

are going to continue our conversation about ravens football. I guess at some point we’ll talk about what the Orioles did over the weekend, and certainly Saturday night. We only have a couple more weeks left of that. I hope the football season goes a little better. With Joe Flacco coming in this week, we’re going to be at the Beaumont so things are going to go better next Tuesday. I’m in the middle of this tastiness countdown here, and I want to welcome our friends from GBMC. We’re calling it the GBMC hotline in I’m. As well as Curia wellness, who has sponsored our 27th anniversary. As I continue my tastiness countdown of the delicious things that we eat here, my wife and I have had a major dispute that I think I may have gotten the Beaumont wrong. I may have gotten El Guapo chicken tortilla soup wrong over the weekend, so I have to go back to Catonsville and figure that out. We’re going to be there on the 16th that is next Tuesday, hopefully the raves will be one on one and on only two at that point. But we thought that last year when the Las Vegas thing happened around here, Luke and I will be monitoring all things football all week long. We continue to talk offense, we’re going to continue to talk defense, we’re going to talk AFC north, we’re going to talk about Joe Flacco, and I’m sure we’re going to talk about Tyler loop and John Harbaugh and the kicking game, we’ll come back continue our conversation about what could have, should have, would have been a victory in Buffalo.
