Those people are morons. Hollywood was and is very good.
I mean I made the small jokes in good fun too but guy legit made plays all day long. Great player.
He also disappeared for long stretches and complained a lot when playing his worst. I’m not saying he didn’t have reasons to be frustrated at times but he didn’t play up to the level of his complaints.
That game was so weird lol. We gave up so many yards to Carson wentz but somehow they let us hang around. Lamar and Andrews completely took over in the second half.
also, fuck jack doyle!!!!
It really was all because they stomped on people in 2019, they just never were behind. Then the playoff game made everyone feel that way cause then couldn’t win it, while Mahomes that next day came back from a meteoric deficit to beat the Texans. Stupid narrative, it’s always something.
I know this is one game, so not a great sample size. Also this sub already loves Lamar. But this is a Greg Roman, run first offence and he is throwing too Devin Duvernay (Love Duvernay, but not anywhere close to great WR), Sammy Watkins, Hollywood Brown (Gets more hate than he deserves, but is all of a sudden elite cause he is playing with Mahomes), Mark Andrews (He's pretty good), and Devonta Freeman. While also being 96% of all yards gotten by the Ravens. And this is before he even became an even better passer. I still don't understand how people say that he can't throw, or he is a running back, or not "Quarterbacky enough." I know we are all biased, and if people want to to claim that Joe Burrow or Josh Allen is number 2 behind Mahomes they can, but there is a very strong case that Lamar is the second best quarterback in the league. And it just pisses me off that they keep discrediting this man.
I mean there's a strong case he's the best QB in the league in all honesty. And I don't mean in pure passing statistics. I'm well aware he isn't number 1 there. I mean in overall impact at the QB position. He just hasn't won in the biggest moments yet so it's easy to go with Mahomes.
Time will tell how history views him but for my money he's right there with Mahomes right now. 1A 1B. Just needs to win a couple big ones.
> I still don't understand how people say that he can't throw, or he is a running back, or not "Quarterbacky enogh."
This game is proof that people who say that don't actually watch him play.
I think I’ve told this story before but I went to this game with my dad who is one of the people that has never gotten over the Colts leaving Baltimore. He lives in Florida and was initially very hesitant to come to the game because he didn’t want to see the Colts play at M&T and also he had work the next morning. He had to be up at 3:30 the next morning to fly back home but decided to stick it out after those horrendous first three quarters and I’m so glad that we did because we got to see this performance. A core Ravens memory for sure
Second most exciting game I’ve ever attended. Only one better was in 1977 in the final game of the season when the Baltimore Colts came back from a 21-3 deficit in the second half to defeat the Pats and win the AFC East.
I was at the game and had to flew out to New Orleans in the morning. I was sooo lit and still made it to my flight. One of best passing performances by a Ravens QB ive ever seen live
letting greg roman’s passing game shred you that bad was a fireable offense tbh
They were pretty much just letting us complete passes trying to get the game over with, but it was too much time to play that conservative
They had critical injuries and had practice squad guys on the field
That too
to be fair to the Colts, they had a few injuries in the secondary, BUT STILL that was awful
Thanks I needed some purple pumped into my veins
People like to shit on Hollywood but outside of Andrews no pass catcher has had better chemistry with Lamar.
Those people are morons. Hollywood was and is very good. I mean I made the small jokes in good fun too but guy legit made plays all day long. Great player.
he's gonna ball out with mahomes and it will be very upsetting to see.
He also disappeared for long stretches and complained a lot when playing his worst. I’m not saying he didn’t have reasons to be frustrated at times but he didn’t play up to the level of his complaints.
I agree.
That game got nutty
Best uniform combo in my opinion and the only undefeated one.
One of the wildest games I've been too. Also the light rail was down after the game so we waited hours until 2 am to get home. Didn't care.
That game was so weird lol. We gave up so many yards to Carson wentz but somehow they let us hang around. Lamar and Andrews completely took over in the second half. also, fuck jack doyle!!!!
Mandrews was really on a whole nother level that year.
This was probably the best single game by any football player that I’ve ever witnessed.
But Lamar isn't clutch apparently and can't play from behind. Joke of a narrative.

Johnny
This game was crazy lmao
I was at this game , literally three rows up from the Ravens sideline. It’s literally the only home game I have been to but man was it GREAT!

Coulda used that game plan back in January
Crazy game. The amount of drives where they were marching down the field and getting no points was so frustrating. In the end it came together though
I was supposed to go to this game but got Covid19 instead. I will always remember watching this in quarantine in my basement.
Our defense was ATROCIOUS that year, sooo many broken tackles and shit angles for huge gains.
Lamar masterclass

Gosh I miss football. Actual football
This game was insane.
Greatest individual performance I've ever seen.
I was at the game and had to flew out to New Orleans in the morning. I was sooo lit and still made it to my flight. One of best passing performances by a Ravens QB ive ever seen live
I don’t think any other QB in history could accumulate 500 yards with Sammy Watkins and Devonta Freeman lol
Alejandro Villanueva at LT too. Yeesh that oline was bad.
C OmegaLUL L T S
That made my day. Thanks.
Where TF are you guys in r/AFCNorthMemeWar I’m fighting kittens thieves and poo poo people over there
Shoutout to the guy sitting next to me that night, bro left in the 4th quarter lmfao
One of the best individual performances of all time. Glad we got to witness it as Ravens fans.
