It was tough to watch the way Bills knocked out the Ravens this week. It was just one of those days where little went right for the Ravens. Winning and losing is all part of the game and the Ravens lost. It is easy for an average NFL fan to sit at home, drink some beer, point fingers and hate.
Yes, the fumble hurt, and the game-tying catch which was dropped, hurt, but nobody deserves what Mark Andrews has been put through ever since.
Andrews, tight end for the Ravens, has received multiple death threats after his divisional round performance. He dropped a crucial game-tying catch in the fourth quarter, which has resulted in a lot of fans being outraged. Forget about Andrews for a second because even his girlfriend, Elena Yates, had to turn off her Instagram comments.
However, Bills Mafia (hardcore fans of the Buffalo Bills) have come together and are showing why they are some of the classiest fanbases in the NFL. What have they done exactly? Let’s find out.
Bills fans have raised over $50K for Mark Andrews’ Charity after the Ravens’ tight end received death threats. They have started a GoFundMe page and have raised over $52,000 at the time of this article’s publication. The goal of the charity is set at $90K and looking at the way it has received popularity, it will most likely be reached. It has gained a lot of popularity and this act is very much needed.
Many fans have been extremely cruel towards Andrews but everyone needs to remember that even the best of the best, can make mistakes. No matter the cost.

Lamar Jackson, quarterback for the Ravens, refused to put all the blame on mark. There is a Youtube shorts clip uploaded by @marca_en where Jackson is seen comforting his tight end saying:
“It’s all of us bro. We’re a team bro. It’s all of us. It ain’t just you.“
Jackson has remained a true professional despite losing to the Bills. Of course, he wants to win the game but he understands that sometimes it’s just not your day.
Even after the game, he refused to criticise Andrews in the post-game interview saying, “It’s a team effort. I’m not gonna put that on Mark because he’s been battling all season and he’s been doing all the great things.” Jackson added, “It don’t always go our way. We want it to but at the wrong time if it’s not going our way, we need to figure that out… I’m just as hurt as Mark.”
This is what a leader of a squad looks like and the Ravens will certainly be hungry to come back next season even better than before!

mma I cover the National Football League and things cannot get better than that. I always dreamed to play football or basketball professionally since I’m built like a Running Back. But now that I can’t, since I’m technically in the “Unc” age, I thought why not pick a career in sports industry? So here I am, doing what I love, and hoping that the Commanders win the Super Bowl. I give love to players when it’s due, but can be critical about their performances at the same time. Enough about me, now let my articles do all the talking.
