Ravens Choke Away Win: Why Harbaugh’s Punt Was Insane | HARD PASS Ep.37

Buffalo' Week 1 thriller against the Ravens sparked major debates: Was Josh Allen’s comeback drive a real turning point, or did Ravens coach John Harbaugh hand him the game with insane (ahem, archaic) coaching decisions? Doug Kezirian breaks down Harbaugh’s costly punt, missed analytics opportunities, and why this felt more like a Ravens collapse than a Bills triumph. Plus: Lamar Jackson’s viral shove of a Bills fan—did he cross the line, or was he right to defend himself? Doug argues Lamar’s only mistake was apologizing.

 

“Possession over position—that’s the lesson NFL coaches refuse to learn.” ~ Doug Kezirian
