"when it matters" meaning come playoff time


I don't trust The Bills & Ravens to finally get over that hump and beat the Chiefs :ehh: top tier teams fasho, but will lose when it matters most


hot take, but I also don't trust the Lions to finally win a superbowl. they may get there, but will find a way to lose :beli:

Thread was made for the Falcons. I’m not even sure if they qualify for this thread but their fans think so and that’s good enough for me

The Ravens. Lamar gets to the championship game on his ability to run when it's there and pass when it's there....then forgets how to run and decides he wants to be a pocket passer with no pocket.

Josh Allen can be forced into bad throws playing hero ball and these teams especially KC knows this.

I think Detroit learned a valuable lesson about taking your foot off the gas like they did with the 49ers last year which is why they're running up scores now. I don't see anyone in the NFC beating them in that mode.

The people you expect to be there never get there but when you look at the NFC they're levels above everyone else and I don't see an AFC that can stop their offense. Their secondary is suspect though but it gets bailed out by their pass rush being so good. Playoff football is different though because that suspect secondary could run into that Atlanta air attack and get exposed and eliminated

Annually good/ competitive teams in the recent era(last 5 years) that will never get over the hump and win the chip in their respective sports leagues. Because they can’t win when it mattters the most, they can’t close out the big games.


NFL: Ravens, Bills, Packers, Vikings, 49ers, Bengals, Steelers, Cowboys

NBA: Knicks, Heat, Suns, Sixers, Mavericks, Clippers, Cavaliers, Timberwolves

MLB: Phillies, Padres, Mets, Rays, Orioles, Twins, Blue Jays, Yankees, Guardians/Indians

NHL: Maple Leafs, Rangers, Hurricanes, Predators, Oilers, Canucks, Stars

EPL/European soccer: Arsenal, Paris Saint Germain, Dortmund, Tottenham Hotspurs
