Ravens vs Bills: Mark Andrews Under Fire for Crucial 2-Point Drop

All season long, tight end Mark Andrews has been one of the key players on the Baltimore Ravens roster. However, the team lost because of mistakes and critical miscues in their playoff game against the Buffalo Bills. Now, Josh Allen and the Bills will face the winner of the Chiefs and Bengals in the AFC Championship.

This was made possible by a Ravens defensive error. Andrews fumbled a catch on his team’s drive, attempting to score with 1:43 remaining in the game. On the next drive, he also poorly tried to make a game-turning 2-point conversion that would have tied the game at 27 but dropped it.

The media members were aware of these two incidents and reasonably expected to have the opportunity to ask the 29-year-old Mark Andrews about them. However, when they realized he would not be taking questions from reporters, some concern rose.

Andrews is legally responsible for meeting with the media after the game. However, he avoided doing so after Sunday’s defeat. According to Baltimore The Athletic reporter Jeff Zrebiec, unlike teammate Lamar Jackson, coach John Harbaugh, and some other team members, he turned down sideline involvement in response to the game. 

In the following press conference, Coach Harbaugh quickly defended Andrews, who underperformed in the second half of the game. “Mark fights harder than anyone on this planet and contributes more than anybody for this team,” said Harbaugh. “None of us would have gotten this far without Mark Andrews.” 

“Like anything, you have a choice in how you plan your life. Mark is a great man who always stands up for the right values.” He expressed his pride in Mark, saying, “Mark being so focused and driven all along is wonderful.”

Mark Andrews’ Girlfriend Received Hate From Fans

After Andrew’s poor performance in the match, his girlfriend became the target of criticism from the fans. She made a recent post on her Instagram, and people quickly unleashed their hatred onto that post as her comments section was still open. A few comments were meant in humor. However, most comments were out of line and quite nasty, especially for someone not involved in any aspect of the match. Ultimately, she decided to hide the post’s comment section.
