Jamal Lewis Slams Ravens' 2-Point Call, 'Why Not Hand The Ball Off To Derrick Henry!?' | TMZ Sports

To me the Ravens need a new head football coach

[@alivialdores978]

I'm with you. No one wants to say that because he won a Super Bowl, yet they calling for Mike Tomlinson head in Pittsburg and he's won a Super Bowl too. Harbaugh coaches not to lose, instead of coaching to win

[@slickreynolds7573]

Said the same damn thing. Why not direct snap Henry and pass. Or how about take the fg xtra point earlier in the game and be down one point.

[@rdr2dgrv99]

He is stupid!!! That was a great call. The BILLS were selling out to stop DH if he ran the ball. Look at the replay and you'll see at least 5 Bills players in the background of the missed catch by Andrews. PERFECT PLAY CALL, bad execution.

At that point in the game Henry was picking up those yds the high % of time imo

Everything Jamal said is 100% correct especially why not kick the extra point instead of going for 2 points in the first half, he’s absolutely correct

[@bgstv10001]

Exactly

[@donovans6472]

so what if the defenders were ready for DH it doesn't mean they would have tackled him....just like how mark andrews was capable of making that catch he just didn't. i personally think lamar should have kept it himself since he's the one that everyone is claiming to be mvp...... if that was josh allen i bet you he would have kept it himself and ran it in...... just like in the superbowl with the eagles when the eagles needed the two point conversion to tie jalen hurts ran it in..... there comes a time when a high calibre mvp type qb has to be s self reliant. game is on the line you need two yards you just go out and get those yards yourself.... that's what a patrick mahomes and i could even see a jayden daniels doing that because they have the capable legs to do it.

[@alivialdores978]

What are you talking about? The play obviously wasn't perfect, it didn't work. You go to the guy with the hot hand not the guy that just fumbled the ball a few minutes ago. When players make big mistakes like that you risk them not recovering mentally, and apparently that's exactly what happened to usually sure handed Mark Andrew's.

[@williseabon894]

But it was stupid to run that play for Andrews. Likely should have been the one that play was drawn up for. But all second half, they force feed Andrews.

[@koryjenkins8400]

To be real Henry got stopped multiple times when it’s been fourth and 1 or even just hit behind the line so I wouldn’t trust him for the two point conversion either

[@WalterScott-w5q]

Big salute 🫡 to my boy jamal Lewis 31 nfl hall of famer he used to carry the ball hard 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@dominicstokes8662]

first off who's idea was it to even throw the ball instead of runinig it that's what i want to know that's like the game i will never forget the sea hawks vs the patriots when rusell wilson through the ball into the in zone instead of handing it to marshawn lynch who's making these play calls.

[@blessdunn]

Not true. Bills were selling out to stop the run and doing a run there is too predictable, especially when the o line wasn’t doing that great all year in those situations

[@dallasborn8574]

Lmmfao. I can't!!!

[@jjholl00]

Every year, we see this in the playoffs, the coaches abandoning the running game. The turnovers, drop passes and these coaching decisions handed us another lost. Jamal Lewis is absolutely right in his analysis.

It was another take off of the Patriots and Seahawks super bowl where Wilson passed the ball on the one, instead of handed it off to Marshawn

[@lees5953]

They were literally running the ball and passed to Andrews he fumbled 😂man everybody got an opinion but we all can anything afterwards. They were moving thr ball with ease passing it.

[@Creamcity414]

They could have the buffalo’s front line is tough

[@Truthteller5000]

Or you could have kicked the PAT prior and you never would have been in that position in the first place. Just kick the PAT and try to win it in OT like he said

[@rdr2dgrv99]

No one knows the future. Who knew that the def would finally hold the Bills to 2 field goals instead of a touchdown? Not you, not me, not coach Harbaugh.

[@anthonyanderson9303]

​@rdr2dgrv99 the defense had just stopped Buffalo twice in a row before that ravens td. You never chase points when you don't have to.

[@bevelinternational7527]

​@rdr2dgrv99 I agree... U have a chance to tie it, so tie it. U didn't get it. Why would I kick a fg just to be down 1 point? U get another chance to tie it, so tie it. Lot of after the fact talk. And 2 yards is 2 yards. We can say direct snap it to Henry but it's not like he hadn't been stopped in the backfield in that game. Not many 2 point attempts are direct snaps or handoffs. Play call was there...pro bowl qb throwing to pro bowl tight end

[@Ron-zn1ui]

He hit the nail on the head .....but they don't really care......they're only concerned with maintaining the status quo.

[@gbrew9260]

I’m still trying to figure out how he’s not in the HOF. He hit all the RB wickets including a SB ring and a 2000 yd season. Til Lamar got there Lewis was easily the Ravens greatest offensive player in their history.

[@JackStax412]

It was the right call just didn’t catch it. The ball was in Lamar’s hands he threw a accurate pass just didn’t get the catch

[@RobertNeville-g2g]

They such give ball to Derrick Henry 😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@vinniehugo9065]

If McVay was coaching the Ravens he would make Isaiah Likely the WR1 /TE1 and Henry would get 21 carries per game. He would also kick FGs when needed. So the Ravens would have won.

[@CoachRJ334]

How about catching the ball at the end of the day just catch the ball 🏈

[@josevega-p5o]

Bills was running through the ravens - and we stopped enough runs so ravens didn’t trust there own run game !!

I agree with JL. 100%.

[@akiaragland6435]

Hey Jamal is Rick E your barber?

[@timothyslaughter476]

THATS TWICE IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS LAMAR ENGINEERS A 90+, YARD TOUCHDOWN DRIVE ONLY TO BE BEATEN WITH A BOTCHED 2 PT ATTEMPT. THE ONLY THING I SAW WAS A LOOK THAT WE NEEDED A TIMEOUT THERE. I KNOW YOU WANT TO CATCH THEM OFF GUARD BUT CLEARLY SOMETHING WAS OFF WITH ANDREWS. OR MAYBE JUST CATCH THE FU

[@westman63]

With all that happened this is the risk you take when you have opposition in any game. A good Bills team providing stiff opposition. The players make mistakes no matter what the score/situation is. The one thing that is under control is Harbaugh kicking the XP instead of the 2-pt conversion. The coach needs coaching because that decision was not forced. Don't take points of the board! Tucker is about 99% so use him. So, I am saying that any Raven could have been in Mark Andrews position, but the Ravens should have never been in the position in that in the first place.

[@christinar8419]

They still had 90 seconds

[@GMoney88-x2]

Wjy is everyone kwep sayin this dumb $hit, the bills were expecting henry to get the ball

[@donovans6472]

so what it doesn't mean they would have stopped him.....do you think when RB make big gains the opposing teams aren't expecting the run.

I am blaming the referees. There were only two bad calls against the Ravens of course.

[@danielshepard7357]

Lamar could’ve played like he did in the second half for the first half and they wouldn’t be having the talk. Stop leaving blame off Lamar as he has done this more than a couple times in the playoffs. This a team game and they lost as a team. It’s also really easy playing captain hindsight acting like you have it all figured out.

[@UncleGingersChronicles]

Looks like another MarShawn Lynch like Seattle. They didn't want them to score.

[@donovans6472]

i think its more like they want lamar to score by passing....but yep it something like that too....weird...i thought for sure lamar was going to keep it himself

I agree with Jamal, Andrews should have *Never* been in that position. Lamar does not get to have 2 turnovers but everyone else has to be perfect . Lamar is getting paid to come back from a deficit, not Blame the lost on the low on dropped balls. Dropped balls gives up a down, while turnovers gives up points for one side or the other.

[@anthonyanderson9303]

Lamar's mistakes happened early enough in the game to come back from. He was lights out in the 2nd half.

[@lindawilson599]

@anthonyanderson9303 Not when you are relying on your last and possibly final possession of the game. Bills get the ball back and get in field goal range and wins anyway, Lamar don't turn the ball over 2 times but instead scores even one of those times and they perhaps Win period.👌🏾

[@melaninknowledge3658]

Low ball drop? 😂 kid the pass was right in his hands and he dropped it. Even the announcer thought he caught it. Lamar isn't the only player on the ream that gets paid to win kid. He's the only QB that loses by himself. Lamar played great in the second half, but his teammates didn't. Andrew's has more drops in the playoffs than TDs kid.

[@lindawilson599]

@@melaninknowledge3658 First off, I'm not a Kid, I'm a grown woman. I am in Baltimore my entire life, I get to watch all of the games. I didn't say it was a low ball, I was saying on the Low Lamar was blaming the lost on dropped balls when dropped balls *Only* give up a down, while turnovers give up or loses points. Lamar has not been that good in the Play-Offs, even in regular season he has his moments, he gets paid more for a Reason. You can't accept the check if you do not want to be accountable, period. That game would not have come down to a Final play if he doesn't do stupid stuff.

[@anthonyanderson9303]

@lindawilson599 bottom line is they were down a score with 3 minutes left in the game and the ball was in his hands and he delivered his part. There's a 100 some odd plays in a football game. All you can ask for is a chance to win in the end and he gave them that chance.
