It’s unfair. Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh gave his heart and soul to his team this season. After watching men leave, Harbaugh built an impeccable coaching staff, acquired running back Derrick Henry, and began fostering unity within the team locker room. However, thanks to pure bad luck, his star players let him down in the pivotal moments of the AFC Divisional Round.
Fumbles, dropped passes, an interception, and failed red-zone attempts all featured as ingredients to the team’s debacle yesterday. Harbaugh’s annoyance could be easily detected in his sideline interview with CBS before the third quarter. The Ravens didn’t just fail on one two-point conversion, but they also failed sequentially.
Tight-end Mark Andrews straight-up dropped the game-tying two-point conversion try, and it’s beyond confusing as to how. How does Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott shake Harbaugh’s hand knowing that the Ravens basically handed him the game?
Ultimately, Harbaugh’s heavenly faith will help him persevere through the misfortune and remain optimistic. Still, these catastrophic unfavorable happenings continue to prevent the auspicious fate that would yield the Ravens another chance at a Super Bowl title.
