Man, Freeman was eating up yards each time he touch the ball. Why are you still dialing up these pass plays when you have a 25 point lead? Kyle got too impressed with himself.
I legit think they were worried Freeman was gon win MVP over Matt. Or at least wanted to put the game in the MVP's hands. No reason for him to only have 11 carries.

I'm seriously thinking NFL is rigging something to get QBs mvps and do some more pushing to get them recognized as faces/best players in the league

of course this is just a assumption, hard for me to be so confident in it as Miller was MVP last year.

But with other offensive players(RB) they don't get no love it seems

That's how it's always been. Everyone gets the shaft in favor of the quarterback. It's a big reason the product has been so lacking in recent years. Every team trying to get cute and throw all the time even in obvious running downs except for New England usually.

I know they like Coleman more, but I was legit getting upset that they weren't giving Freeman more touches. Freeman was balling.

The irony is Brady was almost picked off by Vic Beasley....they knew better the next play..

Don't forget the 49ers beat the Ravens if they just run the ball as well.
Yeah but Vic def pushed Bennett and I should've been a flag. Your point is 100 percent correct though

I still like Shanny as a play caller, but he has a massive ego. That might be his downfall

Yea. There hasn't been a SB MVP RB since 1998 (Terrell Davis).

which is why even though I watch Football and I thinks its alright at the same its fukk football for me:pacspit:

atleast in Basketball you have to work hard and get to that Curry/Bron/Durant level to get all the attention.

not be lucky to play one position where all you gotta do is throw.

basketball >>>>>>>>>> Football

Yeah I've really lost interest the last 5-6 years because of this. Everyone tries to ply like the greatest show on turf and it just makes a terrible product. I missed almost the entire 2013 season working sundays and didn't feel like I missed much. Missed half the 2014 season working and the same thing. I worked the last 15 sundays of the 2015 season and then the playoffs and super bowl too and didn't really mind. This season I tuned in to maybe 5 ravens games. Didn't really even bother watching when the giants or whoever else was on up here. The current cba has really done a number on the quality of the product.
