Missed Field Goal Sends Ravens Fan Into NFL Mock Draft Tailspin


Pittsburgh, PA - Hack Crowens fell to his knees as Tyler Loop’s last second game winning attempt sailed wide right. Instant flashbacks to Billy Cundiff in the AFC Championship in 2011, Mark Andrews’ dropped two point conversion in 2024—it was a familiar feeling. Hack tried to look away as Steelers fans danced nearby. He knew all that could save him now is Taco Bell. A plethora of crunchwrap supremes and Cheesy Gordita Crunch Boxes over the week has proven to work in the past.

It Was Foretold

Back in June, one Ravens fan had this on his bingo card:

The prophecy was fulfilled Sunday night when Tyler Loop’s 44-yard attempt sailed wide right, handing the AFC North title to the Pittsburgh Steelers and sending the Ravens home for the offseason. For Hack Crowens, it was yet another triggering return of his Post Traumautic Field Goal Disorder.

Sad for the Players

Ravens tight end Charlie Kolar’s one-word tweet captured the soul-crushing, hope-destroying ways.

Emerging Curse of Harbaugh

For those keeping score at home, here’s the Harbaugh-era catalogue of suffering:

Loop is the latest victim of the Harbaugh era. He had a good rookie season, and you got the sense one of these was coming but hard to put it all on him. The defense wasn’t on its game against a bad offense and by all accounts, Houston was going to beat either team it faced.

The inevitable late game collapses are so heavy when you feel them coming on its almost expected. Its like seeing the future and the past at the same time while having some kind of vertigo.

For Those About to Mock

The vibes were terrible all season and am hoping this encourages some change. Hack Crowens started his offseason cycle and the mock drafts are already spinning up. The 14th pick is always a nice spot, and the Ravens last picked Kyle Hamilton when they had 14.
