When swagu takes off his glasses we know something’s about to go down 😂😂😂😂
A QB could play flawless but have a three and out on his first drive and Mad Dog would say "He started the game horribly. I know he finished 24/28 with 301 and 2 TD but that first drive has to concern you"
Depending on who it is.. if Josh Allen makes 2 good throws with 3 interceptions, my God, did you see those throws.😂
Facts lol
Mad dog is trash 😂
The way you worded that was perfect I could hear his voice
I definitely read this in his voice😂
As much as I love and root for Lamar as a lions fan. Mahomes is difficult to count out, the man saw 13 seconds on the clock and basically said y’all gave me too much time 😂
we not buffalo tho
@@LAMARViCKand Mahomes don’t have Hill who he counted on to go get the ball during that 13 second drive. But Mahomes is still dangerous. And Rice has seemed to step up.. so we’ll see
@@Finnissee0122Hill aint needed. Didnt need him to win the super bowl last year and didnt need him to get to the ravens.
@him6084 bro last time Mahomes played Lamar he had Hill and Kelce and still lost 😂 Lamar ain't Jalen Hurts this brother is on a real mission
@@LAMARViCKLamar isn’t Patrick.
First time I heard Molly drop a good one liner "myself"😂😂💯
Especially since Mad Dog was curious 😂😂
😅😂😂😂😂
Cheesy af
@@ifimlyingimdyingsay Whadd got his ahh 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂 riteb
Chiefs fan here. These analysts have been putting my team down from day 1. No our offense hasn't played well this season, but make no mistake, my team will come prepared.
All I've heard all year is criticism specifically of your WR & excuses that it was their fault when you lost.
Odd that when Lamar had subpar receivers for 5 years & still won... any losses were his fault. Including the 2019 playoff loss where those subpar receivers dropped 8.
Both teams will be bringing it on Sunday. We'll see who makes it to Vegas & who makes excuses.
@@miwawilliams1339 I agree but the difference is that in spite of the WRs, Mahomes has his team on the brink of another SB where others get bounced in the first Rd.
Nawww this week along been discussing watching sports everrrybodyyy thinking we playing Brady with this Defense Lamar koo but he ain’t no Elite Threat At This Level Yet Especially Playing A Equal Defense Our Corners and DLine better
😂😂😂😂😂@@miwawilliams1339
@@miwawilliams1339well we found out.
I hate the flip flopping with Stephen A. You said early in the season that Lamar wasn’t worth the contract. Now you picking him over Patrick mahomes?!?!
Statistically he's having a better season than Mahomes.
@@gxdzfxrst2940 I agree but Stephen A can’t say that because he was down on Lamar earlier in the season
@@gxdzfxrst2940 I mean, was that the question?
@@iam_ad629almost like people can change their opinion. Crazy huh? Clearly he felt differently after watching him for a whole season
I mean he literally said he is seeing a different Lamar now...
Ravens fan here, and I understand where Mad Dog is coming from. Mahomes has shown he will ALWAYS step up and be ready for the moment, Lamar has only won 2 playoff games. All pressure is on Lamar this weekend
Why did you have to announce you were a ravens fan? That's so weird
@@htownblack9184 To show im not biased??
Yea I hear ya but the same people would say it's not Josh Allen fault they been losing in the playoff but will turn around and say lamar don't show up despite the fact his supporting cast on offense wasn't as good
@erindiscord221 one game doesn't have anything to do with the next ...eli Manning should have taught y'all that
U not a true ravens fan bro…😂😂😂
Patrick is going against the #1 defense and Lamar is going against the #2 defense
Chiefs are #4 overall defense
Different talents
The chiefs are #2 in overall Defense. #2 in sacks #2 in points per game w/17 #2 in points per play #3 in yards per game w/292 #3 in yards per play 4.6 #4 3rd down efficiency 36% #6 4th down efficiency 47% #3 in red zone scoring 48% #3 in TD/game
For most of this ravens team it’s their 1st.
The gap between #1 and #2 stats in D is high this year. Ravens TO diff is like 25 points better than Chiefs.
People acting like the chiefs defense chopped liver is crazy
It's crazy, they keep repeating the same thing,
Everybody think the Chiefs D is trash till they get clamped down.
Mad dog is telling the truth about Mahomes.
Mahomes is a predator!
Rushing yards don't win Superbowls, especially against a top defense.
Mad Dog just LOVES those "life on the line" arguments. Lol
It’s like Max Kellerman and his “fate of the universe” lines.
@@supergold9390 lol facts! I forgot about those
@@supergold9390martians have the death beam aimed at earth
Life on the line give me Lamar, he will give me 85 rush yards and potentially a 300 yard game.
@@1closerRIP bro
I think that question should really be addressed properly, if I had the choice between Lamar and mahomes, (speaking on the quarterbacks alone) I'd take mahomes, but if the question is between chiefs or ravens, I'd take ravens.
3:35 Doggy to molly- you were cranky when i walked in
Molly-i was so nice to you when you walked in
Doggy-you were cranky 😂😂😂
00:30 molly was disgusted by the glazing😂😂
Molly said Lamar’s name twice 😭💯
SAS said the same thing about Josh Allen last week. Lamar is better than Josh but how has 15 not earned the benefit of the doubt? What more do you need to see
Yep looks like the Ravens are about to lose now. 😅
I respect the Chiefs and they are the only proven winners left but man I wanna see the Ravens get to the Super Bowl 😂
That’s all I want is anyone picking the ravens to acknowledge respect the chiefs because of their accomplishments and they come into this game with the #2 defense which is why this game is going to be close by like 3 or 4 points and unlike the ravens the chiefs give an average 17 ppg better than Baltimore and the Chiefs haven’t surrendered more than 30 points all season long Baltimore has
Fr mann
Too bad the NFL doesn’t care about your feelings 😂
I’m also saying this as a chiefs fan your defense is not going to be a cake walk either which is why the chiefs need to have their best game in this situation and that come from experience which the chiefs have
💯
😂yoooo when doggy says "baltimore" it cracks me up he saying " Balddimore" lol
Marcs reaction is hilarious 😂😂😂 but I do agree with Stephen A with the way the ravens have played this season and how the defense is and how Lamar has improved they are just too elite RN and I feel like they will beat the chiefs I hope the chiefs win but im going with the ravens 😊😂😂😂
Totally agree with Mad Dog on this one. Life on the line, I’m going with Mahomes just based on their history in big games.
I guess you dying cause ravens not frauds us eagles! They literally destroyed every good team this year 49rs, browns, bills, dolphins I mean dominated them! Their defense is back on top I mean injuries is only way I see chiefs winning this one
@@pierrekwizera7180 Focus bruh, the question was Which QUARTERBACK (Mahomes or Jackson) would you pick to go into a must win game? Even this Sunday, I'm putting my money on Chiefs to upset the Ravens.🤑
5 tds 4 ints 2 fumbles in 3 sbs 😂😂
@@nenola5042 Superbowl rings 😂😂
@@nenola5043 rings
Stephen, also chose Alan over Mahomes before the bills game
That’s because they All hope to be the first one to pick against Mahomes, and then hope they’re right! But as usual, they’re all WRONG!! Mahomes MVP
The reactions were hilarious 😂
Molly: “I think Lamar’s gonna play great but I think Lamar’s gonna play great too 😅😂😂😂
Lmao did u see Mad Dogs face 😭
I really want someone to replay this SAS clip on Monday and everytime someone doubts Mahomes against anyone.
I can’t wait for this in the morning
People forget playoff pressure is waayyyy different from the regular season!
I trust Mahomes more than I trust Lamar in this!
This is the game Lamar needs to prove himself to us he can perform great under intense pressure.
😂😂😂😂 you had way too many shots
@@Mrfantastic-hp2enThey stay sleeping on the 2x Unanimous MVP, it’s all good. They gone get they hearts broken when Lamar Jackson and the Ravens beat the breaks off the Chiefs. 💔🐦⬛🐦⬛🐦⬛
@@heavyizthacrown-5842 facts nobody is scared to play the chiefs they want ppl bow down against them not going happened in Baltimore
EXACTLY!!
u can trust mahomes but can you trust his receivers this year ??
Ok it's settled Chiefs winning this game. These ppl never learn after all Mahomes has done they're still picking someone else over him smh.
Right mfs will never learn they lesson smh 😂🎯
I’ll be back
Doggy sitting back like “I’m not changing sh*t, I said what I said!”😂
Mad Dog got it exactly right. The Chiefs aren't even supposed to be here right now. Most people counted us out because our offense was broken. Mahomes is playing with house money this season. All the pressure is on Lamar.
Of course he did… you’re a KC fan. Chiefs lost to the broncos and the raiders… please stfu
His Takes Are Terrible He Better Keep The Same Energy
@@darrentorain6278how about now ?
swagu: “i would rather have lamar because of the situation that he’s in.” 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
“You were cranky when I walked in” lmfao
Thank you Mad Dog!! The only one of you guy's with some sense!!
He was Awful ??? Bruh the O line didn't give him a chance that's why he screamed at half
So according to mad dog if mahomes loses it’s not a big deal because the ravens are the better team, but didn’t bring up the fact that most of the time when the chiefs was going up against us in the past mahomes was on the better team and had the better receiving core while Lamar was consistently playing with the worst receiving core in the league while ALSO being expected to do MORE. 🤦🏾♂️
they never talk about kelce and hill being mahomes teammates😂 its all mahomes tho
What happened? I thought ravens where better?
Everything I hear about the Ravens right now is exactly what I heard them say about the Eagles in the superbowl last year. Mahomes feasts on top ranked defenses…
first off, the Ravens aren’t the Eagles. Second off, this Ravens defense literally made history by leading the league in scoring, sacks, and turnovers. Whatever you have to say about that Eagles defense is irrelevant because this defense Mahomes is about to face is already better from a casual perspective.
@@jau.tumn14the Eagles defense had the one of the most sack counts in NFL history. They were also no 1 in scoring. Mahomes has played a no 1 defense like 4 times in the playoffs and has came out 4-0
The same thing happen when Mahomes play the 49ers defense in 2019 SB, how that SF was going to eat Mahomes alive.
@@jau.tumn14 they better not lose then, y’all are pumping this defense like crazy. If pat wins after all this talk, oooooo
Yesss
SAS changes as the wind changes. He sticks up his finger to test the wind direction and picks accordingly.
That is hilarious but true! I’m going to borrow this line.
Great value Zoolander keep taking about “Lamar feels the pressure, Lamar under pressure”
Have y’all been seein’ the way the man carries himself in post game interviews? Composed as can be. That man is locked in and on a mission. There ain’t no pressure when he knows it’s going to happen 🔒 💯
Ravens 27-20
Bad take here, seemed just as cool, calm, and collected when he was getting wiped out of the playoffs. Also extremely foolish of you to all but say your winning a game then ur guy has never been in and pat is in every year. Better pray your boy doesn’t choke again
It’ll be a legendary game! Either of these men can win.
@@Kyle-qj1zf I’ll be back here on Sunday. Keep this same energy
@@Kyle-qj1zfhe didn’t choke last game did he and guess what you’ll say when they win…better hope he don’t choke in the SB that’s literally all Lamar haters or KC fans WILL ALWAYS say when it’s Lamar even when he proves himself
@@daniellara1994get a life. kyle won’t even remember you exist an hour from now. you fixing to sit here all week thinking about kyle in the back of your mind. that’s crazy.
I've never been more excited for a football game in my ENTIRE life. 😅 I need some blood pressure meds.
Swagu's face is a whole meme 😃
Crowning Lamar, adds fuel to the fire for Mahomes
I'm pretty sure Lamar has more full no matter what these ppl say.
So because somebody recognizes Lamar's greatness & kiss Mahomes a**, it adds fuel to Mahomes? 😂😂
I’ll be back

Because he is very racist towards Lamar. That’s why Mad dog always hate on Lamar
@@malikbeyard3473nah he just speaking facts bout Lamar

Molly: Myself 😎
Take the pick back 😭😭😭pls
Nope. You're done 😆 🤣
Molly Wit The Bar At The End😂👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
These dudes always ask which QB.... then proceed to talk about how good the WHOLE TEAM has looked and base the decision on who is the better QB.... there isn't any analysis here, just fan-boying
and narrative pushing...
Mad Dog is always bent over for Mahomes 😂 stop playin with La’MVP
4:30 media for you. This isn’t LJ vs PM. I’m not a Josh Allen fan, but because the media has been on his noggin, I’ll bring him up. QBs don’t kick, block, catch, tackle, punt, etc. this is BAL vs KC. There are 110 positions in football including all 3 facets of special teams. Just stop this nonsense. That being said, go BAL.
Thank you
💯
Mahomes wins the most and has the best playoff stats, stop making excuses up for y’all QBs just because they not him.
Makings of a great one here!
Thank you SA!
I've been a RAVENS fan since day one when CHANNEL 2 NEWS in Baltimore was talking about the colors and logo for the new team. This AFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME is bigger than the SUPERBOWL for Lamar Jackson. Mahomes is literally on pace for 8 SUPERBOWL titles, nobody in the NFC can say that. Beating MAHOMES and the CHIEFS and then losing the SUPERBOWL will still be an excellent mark and legendary moment for LAMAR.
this aged well for mad dog 😂
Very well
Swagu where is that Crown, I want to see it tomorrow morning.
I’m watching this after the game😏…Can’t wait for Monday
STEPHEN A: "Patrick Mahomes is the greatest quarterback to have ever lived…”
ME: Did I wake up in a version of the Multiverse where Tom Brady didn’t exist?😳
Mahomes might be better
Talent wise that’s no argument for Mahomes, being cerebral and more successful that’s all Brady.
@@SamNB3 Talent is not a metric. Winning is. Seasons are battles and careers are wars. A decade after mahomes's retirement, if he doesn't have at least as many championships, he won't be mentioned in the same league.
@@kevkeisha you are correct, but winning and being talented seems to elevate a player a bit more in my eyes. Too much talent is wasted or untapped.
@kevkeisha true but so far, Mahomes has out done the Brady 6 years into both their careers.
Bro Lamar bout to go out and BALL on any given Sunday Lamar can play better then any QB
😂😂😂😂
They never learn that you don’t doubt the cheifs 😂😂😂
MAD DOG KEEP THAT SAME ENERGY I WILL BE BACK 💯
Stephen a loves bringing up the cowboys and dak for no reason
Lamar career vs Mahomes 1-3
Think that’s going to play a big role in the way both teams play. Lamar will absolutely show up, each game (besides the second one lol) have been great! So many narratives, so many rights on the line - can’t wait! I’ve been saying for years that Lamar is second only to Patrick, he proved that this year.
We dont talk abt that second one 🫠
Tyreek Hill isn’t in KC anymore this is a different chapter
Why do you mfers always leave out the difference in weapons?
Facts every game been close tbh this the Super Bowl frfr 😮💨
@@vTrueDadand the chiefs have still won without him. Y’all gotta stop bringing up tyreek still. Chiefs won without him and they also beat him this year and now they are in the afc championship
Tom brady respects Lamar Jackson. He told Lamar Jackson.
Using Lamar’s ALL time playoff stats with rushing…. He’s 2-3 with 5 playoff games. Let him cook and win before playoff crowns
Yall crown burrow for losing in one and Josh Allen for never getting to one
1:09 through 1:29 why mad dog tryna look like skip bayless 💀💀😂.. they were twinning
He's definitely Skip's doppelganger. 🤣
Lamar does NOT have the resume to have me believe he can beat Mahomes on this level.
"you know who i bet on, myself" she thought she did something with that 🤣😂😭😭😭

The Baltimore Ravens
1. Have led EVERY game this season with 2 minutes remaining
2. Have the MVP
3. Led the NFL in scoring defense, sacks and rushing offense
Exactly Ravens could be undefeated right now
All that is cute until u run into Mahomes
And it did nothing for them lmao loser
and still lost 😅
Smith you should apologize to Mahomes
Mad Dog lowkey be hating on Lamar 😂😂😂😂
Mad Dog must be on some premium. 😂
Blk QB's matter, Mahomes & Jackson i believe will be a high scoring game
What do consider high scoring? It's a fine line now!!😂
@theoBear3232 I disagree. Both of these QBs are great, but both of these defenses are great. I think Ravens win 23-20.
@@Doatello1991I don’t think KC defense is good. 38-21 Ravens
Just say you have the ravens over the chiefs. Have QB’s switch teams and let’s see that. Lamar would be smacking our receivers at halftime 😂
Lamar’s dealt with worse receiver corps than what the chiefs have
@@GeronFletcherWhen Lamar had bad receiver play he flamed out in the 2nd round meanwhile Mahomes in his first year with inconsistent receiver play let them to the AFC championship game
@@jakieresykes3644 yeah, mahomes has the best play caller in the nfl maybe ever. Lamar had Greg Roman
Chiefs still have good wr then Travis kelce best TE ever running back is dog the play calling is crazy that’s 1 reason chiefs been great
Yeah it's almost like it's team sport and debating individual players in hypothetical situations is pointless
My man... Stephen A. Smith, finally came around my boy, love to see it
Swaggu" What made you come around "😂.
Lamar superbowl mvp coming soon 💪🏿
I think Lamar’s gonna play great .. I think Lamar is too -Molly 😂😂
Lamar squared
Skip looks and talk like he's missing his meds! And Doggy looks like he just left the bar and headed to first take! By Uber!
My answer is Lamar Jackson. When Mahomes was throwing to Tyreek, Kelce and having Andy Reid call plays, Lamar had the God awful Greg Roman passing scheme, throwing to Mark Andrews (Great, but not Kelce) and bottom five WR corps. This year, Mahomes is getting a taste of what Lamar dealt with for five years. So imagine dealing with that, AND not having Andy Reid calling plays, but Greg Roman’s passing scheme instead. That’s what Lamar dealt with when he went 1-3 in the playoffs. This is Lamar’s first season with decent, even Reid/McVay level, but a DECENT, passing scheme. And DECENT (Not Hill/Waddle or Deebo/Aiyuk level) WRs on the outside and this is what he’s capable of. Mark Andrews, by far his best target, has missed six of Lamar’s starts this year, including last week. The offense is averaging 32.8 PPG in those six. With a decent passing scheme, a third RB, and rookie with potential in Zay, an OBJ who’s played admirably at times, but struggled to stay healthy, and a rising Likely at TE. To Mahomes credit, they won it all last year with his best outside WR being JuJu. That is NOTHING to sneeze at. So he is on the current throne and if anybody can pull this game out it’s him. But if you’re stuck on Lamar under Greg Roman than your predictions will suffer the same fate as the teams the Ravens have blown out this year.
America NEEDS the Ravens to win this game. We had enough of the NFL favoring the Chiefs just because of Taylor. I get it, Taylor and her crazy fans brought in several millions every week but come on
So the Chiefs won in 2019 and 2022 because of Taylor?

ESPN has to pick different topics to talk about. The redundancy is crazy.
Only one man can save us from a Taylor Swift Super Bowl. Man, I like Patrick Mahomes and Travis, but 3 people make me pick against them: Jackson Mahomes, Taylor Swift, and Nick Wright.

She has been a huge distraction this season. Sorry. Not sorry.
Same man, biggest reason I can't stand the chiefs is cause of those points
@@sirhoopalot1125 Bro, I don’t care, that they don’t care. I like Nick Wright, I just want to see his reaction to the Chiefs losing. You obviously cared enough to comment.
Yall some weirdos for hating the Chiefs for their girlfriends, fans, and family members. Hate those people then. Nobody on the team ever even mentions any of those people its just the haters who cant get them off their minds.
Last era of great was Brady, Peyton, Rodgers and Brees.
This era is the Mahomes era. There is no one else with his level of success. Allen - no playoff success
Lamar - no playoff success yet
Burrow - SB appearance but lost
There’s no one next to Mahomes right now!
Statford won you forgot and Brady won nick foles won
Three qbs won in his era but he is the best qb In the new era
Three qbs won in his era but he is the best qb In the new era
Only one of those QB’s you listed here has beaten Mahomes in the Playoffs and that’s Joe Burrow. 🤷🏻♂️ We shall see if Lamar can join that list on Sunday.
@@ezracadlett2 Stafford won but we wouldn’t consider his career to rival Mahomes. Stafford has not won MVP and has 1 SB if he gets another he can enter the conversation.
I think Doggy will always doubt Lamar Jackson because I feel like he was in the group that felt he should have been a running back instead of a quarterback
thats because they already have the script...the news, and even on the nfl site for superbowl tickets it already says its going to be ravens and 49ers
Lamar trash again in playoffs... Stop gassing this kid up
Ravens lost Fat Boy
Swagu looked like Olimar when he opened his eyes like that 😂
A warmed-up Lamar can tear up any defense, he's shown that in the second half of last week's game and against the SF D. The true question this week will be "Which QB can overcome a top-5 NFL defense coming at them down after down?" when the chips are down.
Brady been gone for like one season and mfs calling machines the greatest who ever lived 😂
“You can’t guarantee Lamar will be great in this game but you can guarantee mahomes will”
