00:00The Steelers beat the Ravens 18 to 16 at the place the Steelers play.
00:09Not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, six field goals for Chris Boswell and
00:15the Steelers yesterday, but it was enough to get the job done.
00:19Lamar Jackson struggled again as he has in the past against Pittsburgh, but he did find
00:24Zay Jones with just over a minute left to go in regulation.
00:28The hard part, though, is then you got to get the two-point conversion to tie the game.
00:32The Steelers' defense coming up big on CBS.
00:36Jackson keeping it, Jackson fake, Jackson tosses, incomplete, but pressure was there.
00:45Joey Porter Jr. flocking to the quarterback.
00:51There you go.
00:52A huge play on the two-point try, and look, the numbers are the numbers, and Lamar's had
00:56a great year.
00:58He's a great regular season player.
01:01There's absolutely no disputing that whatsoever.
01:04Ravens could be a little bit of a bully team, though, sometimes, and one team that they
01:08cannot bully is the Pittsburgh Steelers, who, as we mentioned, have now beaten them eight
01:12of the last nine, and Lamar has lost five of six of those games himself.
01:18Now, here was the thing that stuck out to me, Cam.
01:21Lamar, 16 for 33 for 207, and he threw a pick.
01:24Go look at the rest of his games.
01:27Those numbers are a lot different than the rest, and Henry, only 65 yards on 13 carries,
01:33and I believe they didn't even give him a carry in the fourth quarter, I believe, of
01:38a game that was relatively close.
01:40They did not give a carry, and again, maybe they're throwing a little bit more, obviously.
01:44They're down, but he's also what's made them so good this year at times, Cam, so to Henry
01:50not to get the rock, that is interesting to say the least for the Ravens.
01:56Interesting.
01:57That's how you bury teams.
01:58You put your foot on the throat.
02:00We just talked about that.
02:01This guy's a battering ram.
02:02You're supposed to give him more carries in the late third and fourth quarter to wear
02:06down teams.
02:07That's your MO.
02:08I know you got guys who can catch the ball, but Baltimore needs a running game to establish
02:13everything else that they want to do.
02:15Unbelievable, and Carver, I'm going to say one damn thing.
02:18We talk about Butker, and Chris Boswell, to me, could be one of the most underrated
02:24kickers in NFL history.
02:26The guy hitting, I mean, all the time, and you know how hard it is to kick in that stadium.
02:31Crazy wins and stuff.
02:33That guy nuts everything.
02:34He's a really, really good kicker that people don't talk about enough.
02:39He's 29 of 30 this year, and the one that he missed was from over 50, so he's missed
02:46nothing short, and he's 29 of 30, and of course, he hit six yesterday in that game.
02:53Hell of an effort.
02:54Three turnovers for us by the Steeler defense.
02:57Let's hear from Lamar Jackson.
02:58All right, Lamar.
02:59So, what's going on?
03:00Why can't you beat the Steeler?
03:01Do you think with the penalties and the turnovers that you guys feel like you're your own biggest
03:07detriment?
03:08It wasn't really what's up, but what you guys did, do you feel?
03:10Absolutely.
03:11It's been that way for ever since last year, I believe.
03:14Coming back to the AFC Championship game, we killed ourselves.
03:17Chiefs game, the opener, killed ourselves.
03:20Raiders, we killed ourselves, and today, same thing.
03:24We can't be beating ourselves in these type of games.
03:26We got to find a way to fix that.
03:27F*** no more.
03:28It's always them.
03:29Yeah, it's always them.
03:30Don't tip the cap to the other team ever.
03:34It's always mistakes that they made in the big spots, and I think one of those mistakes
03:41is quite honestly, Cam, and I think this was a problem for them in the AFC title game.
03:45Last year against the Chiefs, I think it's been a problem for them as well in the past
03:49is their offensive play calling gets, you know, it gets questionable sometimes when
03:54they get into these close games, it gets very questionable.
03:58I remember they ran Justice Hill right out of the gate, looked good, and then I'm like,
04:02why are you changing your game plan?
04:03This is what you have to do to the Chiefs.
04:06Like, you're right, Carver, you're at, you're dead on.
04:08Like, Harbaugh and that staff, they got to take some blame for this.
04:11These guys, they do some really stupid things sometimes, like really dumb.
04:16And one other thing I'll say too, Cam, and I know they've had some times the past couple
04:19weeks where they've put Lamar on a, you know, a rest, do not practice on a Wednesday or
04:24something.
04:25He's not running the football as much as he used to.
04:27He had only four rushes yesterday.
04:28I mean, he had 46 yards, he had a 25-yard run.
04:31But if he's not able to do those other things, it makes their offense a little bit more predictable
04:37in terms of what they're going to do.
04:41And I think that's a good thing.
04:42I think that's a good thing.
04:43I think that's a good thing.
