The Baltimore Ravens had an opportunity to tie the score in the fourth quarter of their Divisional Round game against the Buffalo Bills. Unfortunately, Mark Andrews dropped the ball, which would have given them two points to level the count at 25.
It’s not the only miscue the All-Pro tight end had in that road game. He had another drop in the second quarter and a fourth-quarter fumble. Converting those plays could have changed the game’s complexion, giving them better odds at winning.
Mark Andrews with a night to forget:

Likewise, two-time NFL Most Valuable Player Lamar Jackson isn’t spared from the game-changing miscues. He had a pick wherein he missed the receiver by a mile and fumbled a ball recovered by former Super Bowl MVP Von Miller. That turnover led to a one-yard Josh Allen rushing touchdown that had the Bills up by 11, 21-10.
While the Ravens tried to rally in the fourth quarter, these mistakes bit them back. Sadly, another promising season ended in disappointment. Baltimore will regroup during the offseason while Buffalo advances to the AFC Championship Game.
