The media wanted him to win, which is why I enjoy him losing

From a pure football perspective, it was clear that the Ravens were a fleeting moment.

These kind of things can work within a season. The Dolphins Wildcat teams did it. The Redskins with Griffin did it.

And I firmly believe the Ravens with Jackson this year are in the same vein.

Those passing stats for Tennessee are insane
Henry has basically been about as dominant as can be.

His style is more personal. A throwback. It hurts to tackle him and he will punish you.

A rarity.

Watching Jackson on this drive...just makes me think.

'Member Vince Young's first couple of seasons versus after that?

I was thinking this exact thing today before the game. Maybe I'm wrong, but I see Jackson as a novelty or a gimmick of sorts. A lot like Mahommes last year. Almost impossible to stop. You have to cash it in quickly when you have the hot hand. Otherwise you're not the threat you were the previous season. You come down to earth in a hurry in the NFL.

This year he has run like he hates every defensive player who doesn't have a "T" on their helmet. Brutal!

I think Mahomes is the real deal, yes he had a ton of lucky plays go his way last season but I think we're seeing him succeed on the flip side of that this year

No matter how the rest of the race goes, this game is the poster boy game for the entire playoff series. The Titan defense is a perfect example of how to take control of a game and nullify a gimmick offense. Press the strength and you control the game. The Dallas defense was almost always in a reaction style alignment and it was the downfall of the team for this season.

The guy is the first one since Earl Campbell to intimidate defenses. Just so cool to watch.

Vrabel looks like a pretty smart hire by the Titans right now. 10 years of Jerry nutthugging Garrett, and a guy like Vrabel comes in and in 2 years turns a pathetic Titans team around and has them going to an AFC Championship.

So glad Garrett is gone.
