Well, another heartbreakingly disappointing ending to the Ravens season has come to an end.
When you truly love your team, it hurts—especially when the season ends on one single, crushing moment. But that’s sports. Great games often end in heartbreak for one side, and this was one of them.
The photo you see here isn’t one you’ll find on any front page. Instead of instantly pointing fingers, blaming coaches, or debating who should be fired, it captures something else entirely:
Football is entertainement unless you are playing and that was one hell of a football game played by both teams, decided by a kick from a rookie—likely in the hardest stadium in the NFL to make it.
For us Ravens fans, it’s going to be a long offseason once again.
I truly hope that young man Loop can move forward from that moment. I can’t imagine the pressure. I can’t imagine carrying that responsibility, walking back to the sideline, and facing your teammates knowing the weight of it all. But that’s the reality of the game—and the burden kickers accept when they step into those moments.
Now I’m not sure what’s worse today: all the smack talk I’m going to hear, or dealing with my own daughter this morning as she begins her quest for another Eagles Super Bowl run.😭😭
To all my fellow Ravens fans—keep your chins up. This one hurts. No doubt about it.
Because being a fan isn’t about the easy endings—it’s about showing up again next season, believing all over again, and wearing the colors no matter how much it hurts. 🟣🖤
PS I hope the Steelers lose next week by 30🤪 Go Ravens!
