I wouldn't say he choked. He lost to the new 🐐. No shame in that.

I’d take Lamar and his coaching staff in a heartbeat, to open up next season.

It was kinda weird to see the Ravens unravel like that. Especially with that defense (held Chiefs to 17 total points).

Turnovers, bad penalties, dumb fouls on Mahommes etc.

KC took away their run game. Credit Spaggs.

I wouldn't put it all on Lamar though. The team was more of the "choke". Outplayed, outcoached and out bullied.

Now Thomas is tweeting the quiet part out loud!!!

The Ravens getting pass-happy brought out the worst in Lamar. One of the worst games they coached all season.

Yup. They lived on the run game all season long and then abandoned it early.

Doesn't this point to proper game planning by the Chiefs? Force LaChoke Jackson to pass ?

Great point, which illustrates the master chess game that the Saints Staff is unable to do properly.

Kansas City didn't do anything to force Jackson to pass. The Ravens abandoned the pass game down only seven points with 10:56 remaining in the 2nd quarter. There was nothing that the Chiefs were doing different defensively that should have mandated this move. Nor was the status of the game such that the Ravens had to hurry things up with the score at 14-7 with almost 41 minutes remaining on the game clock.

This was simply bad playcalling on the part of OC Tod Monken. He's been raked over the coals more than once already on NFL Radio and X (aka Twitter) this morning. Probably catching the same flack elsewhere, too.

Whatever coals any championship coach gets raked over after a loss in the playoffs, should have scorched Dennis Allen’s a$$ last year, and sent him packing.
