Many defended Loop and said people shouldn\u2019t leave negative comments on the couple\u2019s engagement post. <\/p>\n

Loop was visibly emotional after Baltimore came up short of securing a third straight division title.<\/p>\n

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh was seen consoling the rookie, as seen in a video of them walking to the visitor locker room at Acrisure Stadium. <\/p>\n

\u201cFor it to end like that sucks, and I want to do better,\u201d Loop said<\/a>. \u201cUnfortunately, the nature of the job is you have makes, and those are awesome, and unfortunately, you have misses, and for that to happen tonight sucks.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe second it made contact with my foot, I felt it lower,\u201d Loop said<\/a> when asked about the point he realized the ball wasn\u2019t good.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe talk about hitting on the fourth lace of the shoe. I felt a little lower down the foot and hit it thin.\u201d<\/p>\n

He emphasized that \u201cit\u2019s time to move on\u201d and prepare for next season. <\/p>\n

Loop made 90 percent of his field goal tries (30-for-33) before his first game-winning attempt.<\/p>\n

The Ravens (8-9) missed the playoffs for the first time since 2021.<\/p>\n

The shocking loss opened the floodgates for questions on Jackson and Harbaugh\u2019s future with the team, <\/a>respectively. <\/p>\n

During his post-game press conference, Jackson told reporters he was too \u201cstunned\u201d to discuss Harbaugh\u2019s future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ravens kicker Tyler Loop and his fianc\u00e9e, Julia Otto, were harassed on social media after his 44-yard missed…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":78464,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[4916,1418,73,75,74,1833,726,13465],"class_list":["post-78463","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pittsburgh","tag-baltimore-ravens","tag-nfl","tag-pittsburgh","tag-pittsburgh-headlines","tag-pittsburgh-news","tag-pittsburgh-steelers","tag-sports","tag-sports-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78463","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78463"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78463\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78464"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78463"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78463"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78463"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
