Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews ended the 2024 season as a community hero, but his epic two-point conversion pass drop in the 27-25 loss to the Buffalo Bills in the AFC divisional won’t soon be forgotten, especially by teammate quarterback Lamar Jackson, who will be mocked endlessly by the slanted aims of sports media professionals nationwide.

Andrews might have saved a woman’s life last year, but he surely didn’t save the Ravens’ season. To add insult to injury, Andrews tallied two drops and was bullied out of the ball by Bills defensive back Terrel Bernard on a forced fumble that swayed momentum in the Bills’ favor in the fourth quarter.

Critics should be friendly and let Andrews live this pivotal moment down. Bills fans will boast and mock, but internally, they could feel their hearts drop into their stomachs when Jackson led the Ravens on that final touchdown drive.
Thanks to Andrews’ blooper on the game-tying play, Bills defensive coordinator Bobby Babich can posture as self-destruction wasn’t the primary reason the Bills escaped the Ravens.
