In lieu of a written #ColumnNes, Nestor Aparicio thought his three minute synopsis when asked by two Buffalo Bills fans about how Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry could run the Baltimore Ravens to an AFC Divisional Playoff victory on Sunday night in Orchard Park. Let ol’ Nasty break the game down for you with some historical perspective about what we’re seeing with the “Revolution” of the purple offense.

‘ve talked about this this week, and from historical perspective, we’re saying, I like to get your thoughts. Is that fit Carucci on earlier, started thinking, um, about whether it’s disrespectful to Lamar to talk about he needed a running back. He needed a running back when I think about, all right, Roger Staubach had Tony Dorsett, Terry Bradshaw had Franco Harris, Troy Aikman had Emmitt Smith. Now I know Brady had a bunch of different guy, and Brady was just so the game was different. Everything was different. But when I think of accomplished quarterbacks, even if it’s Kurt Warner with Marshall Fauci or even if it’s Peyton Manning with bedroom James, right, I think like that was a missing ingredient that they have with Mark Ingram that I have been saying the loop forever. Dobbins ripped his knee up. It wasn’t good enough. I mean, they were winning games with Latavius Murray in the regular season. But what they have now, what they get off the bus with in this game, is what’s made them a one point favorite on the road on a 15 degree night when they began the week as a one point dog. It’s that the question of stopping them both, and the weirdness of running Lamar 10 times into the Steelers line and to begin the game was weird. I don’t think that’s going to be the K I hope they’re not that dumb, but like for me, that’s what you when Parcells would say, that’s why you lift all them weights. That’s why you say. Derrick Henry, that’s why you built the offense around this is to give him the ball 28 times on Sunday night and run and run and run him until they could figure out how to stop it. And I think this game is specifically really weird and different. You mentioned playoff baseball. Billoni, I’ll say this playoff baseball with the way pitching is done, the way at bats are done in these weird three game series. It’s, it’s not even like baseball. It’s different. This game on Sunday is a four down game. And I don’t mean like Ray Lewis, 40, no. I mean like fourth and 2345, from almost anywhere on the field. Nobody’s going to want to punt, nobody’s going to want to kick a field goal, and nobody’s going to want to give up the ball, and they’re going to think, like, I’ve got to play. Josh Allen’s like, fourth and four from our own 45 I’ve got to play. Let’s keep the ball. Let’s keep the ball. Let’s keep the momentum going. Let’s quiet the crowd. Let’s Let’s beat their ass four and a half yards. Because that’s going to be the game, to me, is going to be who’s winning on third down and fourth down, after winning or losing on first down, because this is back to 19 and 18 when the Ravens were road grading teams. The running part of their offense is a first down offense that puts you in second and one, second and two, second and three, and then they’re just going to beat your ass, you know, then they’re just going to move chains on you, and Josh is going to be over there with the heaters, waiting to get the football back, and that vice versa, if the bills can chew up brown with Alan’s legs, this, that chicanery, you know, dumb penalties that the Ravens have put themselves behind the chains, that that’s the game to me. The game to me is third and fourth down, slobber knocker. Are you going to get to the change. And that really is about defense. And I don’t know that the bill’s defense physically is built to tackle Derrick Henry.
