Bah I was beaten by 10 seconds 🤦🏻♂️
January 20th, 2024 at 7:28 PM ^
I don't watch much NFL, but watching Baltimore - Houston, it's even more obvious how Michigan has benefitted from the Baltimore system, philosophy, and coaches.
UM looks so much like Baltimore, with the defense (obviously the MacDonald, Minter connection) and leaning on the running game. They look like a boa constrictor as well.
Jim built a great culture at UM, but really need to thank John for shipping over his assistants.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:35 PM ^
Either one is fine!
January 20th, 2024 at 4:51 PM ^
Since you're okay with this, I will go ahead and remove your 'in first' thread.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:44 PM ^
Let's watch the Ravens defense befuddle an Ohio State QB one more time, shall we?
January 20th, 2024 at 4:55 PM ^
Truth.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:56 PM ^
That Ravens defense befuddles a lot of QBs. Might be the best in the NFL
January 20th, 2024 at 4:44 PM ^
Justin Tucker never misses. 3-0 ravens.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:45 PM ^
Definitely pulling for John Harbaugh's Ravens.🏈👍
Second game I am torn. Not a Packers fan but would not mind seeing an upset.
Liked the 49ers when Jimmy Harbaugh coached them and always pulled for my hometown hero Joe Staley.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:56 PM ^
A packers win means the lions get another home game if they win tomorrow. I like that.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:58 PM ^
This 100%. Need another Lions home game. That crowd last week was off the charts
January 20th, 2024 at 5:40 PM ^
Looking purely as a Lions fan, if they do somehow make it to the Super Bowl, I'd rather see the Ravens eliminated. They good...
January 20th, 2024 at 6:13 PM ^
If I'm being honest, Ravens are probably the best team in the NFL so I agree with you
January 20th, 2024 at 4:59 PM ^
Good point Ernis 👍
January 20th, 2024 at 5:51 PM ^
Fire up Packers!
January 20th, 2024 at 6:03 PM ^
I'm not sure I want to see the Packers again even at home. It didn't work out so good the last time. I wouldn't want the Loins paving the Packers path to the Super Bowl and have to see the obnoxious Packer people celebrate.
January 20th, 2024 at 6:23 PM ^
I hear that. Really depends on Purdy. If he plays as well as he can, Niners should take care of business. If he plays as poorly as he can… GB has a good shot. They’ll have their hands full with McCaffery either way
January 20th, 2024 at 5:11 PM ^
Baltimore - Lion Super Bowl would be EPIC. I just don't see anybody in the AFC stopping Baltimore.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:47 PM ^
Here's a really interesting thought I had. John Harbaugh wins the Super Bowl this year, and then decides he's going to consider college jobs to finally get that National Championship he's always dreamed of. Waiting right there for him is the University of Michigan. Call it the Harbaugh swapidoo. Seems very likely.
Someone get to work on manifesting this for me. Put it on a dream board. Rub your crystals. Make this a thing!
In other news, sad we're down to our last seven football games of the year. :( Savor these moments.
January 20th, 2024 at 7:01 PM ^
Yeah, this is an exciting but sad part of the year...
January 20th, 2024 at 4:50 PM ^
I enjoy watching Stroud as a pro.
January 20th, 2024 at 6:22 PM ^
I enjoyed watching Stroud as a college player more.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:51 PM ^
Quoth the Ravens defense: "Nevermore."
January 20th, 2024 at 4:54 PM ^
Does anyone know if this Ravens' DC has any experience embarrassing Stroud on a national stage?
January 20th, 2024 at 4:53 PM ^
Looks like flurries and flu on the menu in Balmer.
January 20th, 2024 at 5:07 PM ^
Macdonald flurries?
January 20th, 2024 at 5:25 PM ^
Sorry, the ice-cream machine is out of order.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:55 PM ^
I haven't seen it mentioned how John did another solid for UM by hiring away Monken from Kirby/UGa. Thank you John!
January 20th, 2024 at 4:56 PM ^
Texan’s O-line can’t handle Ravens’ defense. Stroud looks decent when he has time to throw.
January 20th, 2024 at 6:35 PM ^
Texans with absolutely no running attack. That's the difference in the game
January 20th, 2024 at 4:56 PM ^
JIM!!!
January 20th, 2024 at 4:57 PM ^
Big fan of that guy.
January 20th, 2024 at 5:05 PM ^
Exposure on the NFL game. Good for recruiting…
Oh. Never mind.
January 20th, 2024 at 4:57 PM ^
Jim Harbaugh sighting in Baltimore.
Rumors commence!
January 20th, 2024 at 5:25 PM ^
Could Jim actually be interviewing for the HC position with the Ravens while he’s there?
There’s been a lot of chat about Jim wanting a Super Bowl. But, has anyone thought that John might want a National Championship?
Perhaps we could “trade Harbaughs”. They could just switch houses and teams for a few years.
January 20th, 2024 at 5:48 PM ^
Was talking about this with my brother before the NC game. Both go out with wins and then switch places.
January 20th, 2024 at 5:02 PM ^
Chalk: ravens and niners
January 20th, 2024 at 5:24 PM ^
I've got BAL, SF, DET and BUF all outright. I feel pretty strongly about the first 3.
January 20th, 2024 at 5:50 PM ^
I feel strongly about the last 3
January 20th, 2024 at 7:14 PM ^
I initially thought you said "miners" and wondered, copper or iron?
#HolyWah!
January 20th, 2024 at 5:06 PM ^
Stroud might be a Buckeye but I think he is a solid dude. I like him.
January 20th, 2024 at 5:19 PM ^
Lamar Jackson is so much fun to watch, damn
January 20th, 2024 at 5:20 PM ^
TD for the Ravens. I don't see Houston keeping up in this game.
January 20th, 2024 at 5:52 PM ^
Houston can hang if they limit Lamar running. They match up well up front and in the secondary.
January 20th, 2024 at 6:39 PM ^
Houston's running attack is non existent - no way they stay in this game
January 20th, 2024 at 5:28 PM ^
Ravens in the first game.
Not sure if I want the Pack to win, or not. I'd like another home game for the Lions, but the thought of Green Bay being the opponent is sobering. So much PTSD with that outfit against the Lions...
January 20th, 2024 at 5:40 PM ^
What I learned from rooting for Michigan to run the table: don't fear, just believe.
January 20th, 2024 at 5:35 PM ^
Well, if punt returns are going to be Houston's offense, they might have life...
