Unc & Ocho CAN'T BELIEVE Ravens CHOKE vs Steelers, predict John Harbaugh has LOST his job | Nightcap

The Ravens' defense consistently failed to make Aaron Rodgers uncomfortable, allowing him to sit in the pocket and deliver accurate throws. This lack of pass rush exposed the secondary, forcing them to cover for extended periods, which the hosts argue would make any defensive backfield look bad.

Aaron Rodgers was never uncomfortable, even without his old mobility. 'If you let him just sit there and plant his feet, oo, most NFL quarterbacks and you're talking about one of the great NFL quarterbacks, if you don't put pressure on him, he going to pick you apart.'

The hosts directly link the missed field goal and the overall game management to John Harbaugh's potential firing. They highlight the team's inability to gain separation after an early lead and the controversial decision to trust a rookie kicker in a high-stakes situation, rather than attempting to gain more yardage with a timeout.

One host states, 'That miskick that might cause John Harbaugh's job.' Another adds, 'I'm putting our season on my rookie kicker's leg. He's a rookie. There's a reason we got him. If we didn't trust him, we wouldn't have him.'

A significant point of contention was the drastic reduction in Derrick Henry's carries in the second half. Despite a strong first half, the Ravens moved away from their effective run game, a recurring issue that has frustrated fans and potentially cost the team momentum and control.

Derrick Henry had 15 carries in the first half but only five in the second half. The host notes, 'What's been the reoccurring theme? What's been the fans that brought the got the fans most upset is that all of a sudden you go away from Derek Henry.'

The hosts observed that Lamar Jackson's signature mobility was noticeably diminished, describing him as moving with a 'piano on his back.' This reduced agility impacted his ability to escape pressure and extend plays, affecting the offense's overall dynamic.

One host remarks, 'I wish Lamar could have put more pressure on him with his legs.' The other responds, 'He can't. He couldn't... Lamar Jackson look like he got a piano on his back.'

Looking ahead to the Steelers' matchup against the Houston Texans, the hosts emphasize the invaluable experience of Pittsburgh's coach and quarterback, Mike Tomlin and Aaron Rodgers. They argue that this veteran presence, accustomed to playoff pressure, will be a critical factor against a talented but less experienced Texans team, despite Houston's strong pass rush.

One host states, 'I'm not betting against two players a coach and a player that have been in the postseason multiple times that are used to it.' They continue, 'They've been there so much they just go out there as a quarterback. I'mma just go play ball.'
