The playoffs are big boy football time
In these games the team that really wants at the most with the best coaching is the one that wins
There are no gimme’s ; there is no home-field advantage; there is no mercy -in playoff football
You can bet for damn sure dead Baltimore wanted that game hell a bad yesterday
Why is Tennessee so good?
Two reasons primarily ; one - their running back , Derek Henry , and to the coach Mike Vrabel.
Vrabel is a former outstanding linebacker for the New England Patriots for over a decade and as a defense of minded individual with incredible knowledge of the game
You could see both with the win in the New England Patriots and the win yesterday at Baltimore he had the perfect defense of schemes to counter both opposing quarterbacks two of the best in the game, Tom Brady and Lamar Jackson
You could also see in the San Francisco 49er game another dominating defense of performance and running game there was way too much for Minnesota
It has been said many times it is worth repeating
Defense wins championships
It’s not pretty it’s not good television however if you remember the game last year what was the halftime score? 3 to 0?
That is why the New England patriots beat the Los Angeles Rams last year
In the playoffs the best defense beats the best offense every single time
At some point you have to be able to get running yards from somebody other than your quarterback.
