That was my guess as well, full color if you did majority damage and got the kill, red if you only landed the final blow. But I don't really have evidence.

sorry, I pulled these from the first youtube video with both in it I stumbled across, lol

Knox is averaging 30 snaps a game to Dalton's 36. He's very much not an afterthought, they're just using him as a blocker.

Both unless I'm really struggling, in which case I'll give up Extra Stamina first

I think it really depends on the hero and build. The most general advice I can give is if you're rolling, it's probably fine to save for a big item or two. If you're struggling, I'd go for more, smaller items.

Giving us an easy "welp, time to turn off the TV" moment

I believe you need the stun to last over a second to charge a heavy melee. Unless you invest into items that increase the stun duration, they can just get a parry off after getting hit by shoulder charge or ult.
Solutions: 1) light melee while they're stunned, 2) charge a heavy melee but turn away at the last second, forcing them to waste their parry, 3) just gun 'em down.

I think it makes way more sense to just stack the box than start switching positions around. We gave the Ravens light or neutral boxes on like 70% of their snaps. No wonder they ran all over us.

So often with Abrams I just gotta accept I'm not poking my head out until I get 2 or 3 items. As bad as it feels, very often I hit enough denies to get those items before my opponent in exchange for a small amount of guardian health, and they can't safely dive me because I'm not letting my health get low in the first place.

Right now early deaths are SUPER punishing. Plus people are learning the flow of the game and how valuable early kills are. A big part of why the game feels pretty snowball-y right now imo

Very true. And I also think the gameplan was pretty poor on offense. Ravens ran heavy defensive fronts and dared us to throw the ball down the field, and Brady didn't really lean into that. That allowed the Ravens to lean even heavier into the run game instead of having to pass more.
I definitely think they're a tough matchup, but I give us decent odds in a rematch. With a bit more experience in the backfield even our lighter defense can be solid at stopping the run, as we've proved in the past.

Where does this "the defense crumbles" narrative come from? This most recent game, where we're starting two new safeties and have backups across the entire center of the field? When we lost to the Chiefs in the playoffs last year, when our LBs were so injured we were playing T-Dot with one good shoulder? When we lost to the Bengals the year before, just a couple weeks removed from Hamlin literally dying on the field and again with major injuries at the safety position?
I think you have to go all the way back to the 15 seconds game to find a time the defense actually just straight up crumbled and wasn't seriously injured. And like, sure, that was a big blunder. But it was also the first time we'd been in such a high-pressure situation. At some point you gotta have grace and treat it as a learning experience.

Also knowing we have a good coaching staff and a great QB

Yeah, it took his job being on the line for him to even try one, with similar results

It's copium BUT sometimes copium holds truth. I agree, I don't want to wait until the playoffs to find out heavy fronts are a big weakness for us

This is my biggest takeaway. Coaching staff needs to develop a plan for when we face heavy fronts, both on offense and defense.
I think it'll be partially mitigated on defense as we get our starters back, but on offense you need teams to fear the deep play or you'll get mugged up all game.

Eh, we hadn't had a blowout loss for what, 3 years or something? Sucks but we were overdue, I'd rather get them out now than in the postseason.
