Speaker 1: Welcome into the Ravens Press Pass podcast. The Ravens got
Speaker 1: a twenty four to sixteen win over the Tennessee Titans
Speaker 1: in London. Big victory for this team. Here's my head coach,
Speaker 1: John Harrible had to say after the win.
Speaker 2: Appreciate the Titans. That's a tough, hard nosed, competitive team,
Speaker 2: well coached, and they played that way today. It was
Speaker 2: an exciting game and we're very, very pleased to come
Speaker 2: over with a win. I'm proud of our guys. I
Speaker 2: thought our guys fought through a lot of adversity in
Speaker 2: that game, some controllable, some not, and they managed to
Speaker 2: find a way to close it at the end. The
Speaker 2: defense close it at the end with the stop down there,
Speaker 2: and then with the hands team to close it at
Speaker 2: the end offensively, to go down there and get that
Speaker 2: drive and get that three That three points was massive,
Speaker 2: some massive three points at the end there in that
Speaker 2: final drive in the fourth quarter. So just happy with
Speaker 2: our guys. I think Lamar Jackson played played one of
Speaker 2: the most courageous games I've ever seen. Just continues to
Speaker 2: do that. So many areas that we can continue to improve,
Speaker 2: but so many individual efforts that we could We could
Speaker 2: run a list here of guys, and I just did
Speaker 2: in the locker room, so if you get a chance
Speaker 2: to watch that, you'll have the list. But proud of
Speaker 2: our guys. We're looking forward now to getting back home.
Speaker 2: We have a tough game against the Lions at home,
Speaker 2: who's playing very well this year, so we'll be getting
Speaker 2: prepared for that. What questions you have, coach, Congratulations on
Speaker 2: the win today just to Swarts was defeating of the coming.
Speaker 3: Sorry George, the way the Swarper's defeating.
Speaker 4: Becoming the head coach sleep Wolves onto the first winning
Speaker 4: in London.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it's a great feeling. It's better than the
Speaker 2: alternative by far too. I can tell you that it's
Speaker 2: a it's a it's been. It's a great experience, you know.
Speaker 2: It's it's a lot better when you win. I can
Speaker 2: tell you from experience. But we're glad to be here.
Speaker 2: The fans were great. I mean, the fans are loud.
Speaker 2: I love the singing. I love that it was a
Speaker 2: loud stadium. It was like a home game. It was
Speaker 2: like an NFL game there.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: As far as the fans, I thought they were very knowledgeable.
Speaker 2: They know the game over here, and that was impressive
Speaker 2: to see. So it's just a very impressive crowd.
Speaker 3: Coach, we thank you. You've coached several different Rivens teams
Speaker 3: over the years.
Speaker 6: What the success looks like when we're beat October at
Speaker 6: this stage for your team in twenty three, what the
Speaker 6: success loops like?
Speaker 2: Well, right now, it's a process. It's a good question.
Speaker 2: And at this point in time, you know, it's an
Speaker 2: early season. No championships are won Week four, Week five,
Speaker 2: Week six. Odell Beckham even said that earlier in the week.
Speaker 2: Uh so we're kind of looking in terms of what
Speaker 2: are we capable of becoming. You know, we lost, we
Speaker 2: get lost some games we should have won. We uh
Speaker 2: we've played good football on stretches, but we've made mistakes.
Speaker 2: We've shot ourselves in the footway way too many times.
Speaker 2: So what success looks like right now is heart, the
Speaker 2: ability to overcome adversity, to keep fighting to the end,
Speaker 2: find a way to win and make plays on accounts,
Speaker 2: and to keep improving. We keep improving. At some point
Speaker 2: in time, you break, you get over the top, you
Speaker 2: break out and you start winning by larger margins. And
Speaker 2: that's what we're gonna try to do. Yes, you had
Speaker 2: a question there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, thanks gentlemen.
Speaker 5: God bless Okay, okay, did clowney?
Speaker 3: He had a great games to choose sacks.
Speaker 7: How would you describe his impact on the steed, both
Speaker 7: today and more generally?
Speaker 5: Such a great question.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, he's a guy that we didn't
Speaker 2: necessarily expect to have at the being of the season.
Speaker 2: We've been playing against him all these years, always admired
Speaker 2: the way he played, his energy level. You can see it.
Speaker 2: I mean, the dreads are flying everywhere right and he's
Speaker 2: throwing his body around. Had the sacks today, had the
Speaker 2: run stops today, been a great addition to our team.
Speaker 2: Think he's another guy that was always a raven and
Speaker 2: didn't know until he got here. And I'll just add
Speaker 2: the rest of the pass rush too, justin Mattebeek had
Speaker 2: did a great job, Kyle Van Noyd did a great job.
Speaker 2: I thought Michael Pierce and Broderick Washington were pushing the
Speaker 2: pocket really well. So just a lot of guys stepped
Speaker 2: up with that coach that you've.
Speaker 7: Been here for a week, what if you learned about
Speaker 7: the squads that you didn't know before, and what if
Speaker 7: you learned about yourself, like as a coach of.
Speaker 3: Pages of thanks.
Speaker 2: Well, I learned I could win a game in London.
Speaker 2: That was nice to know, you know. But I really
Speaker 2: enjoyed Tottenham the U when we practiced over there, you know,
Speaker 2: just why look at the facilities and having a chance
Speaker 2: to talk to their various staff members. The head coach
Speaker 2: was amazing. I mean, I really like that guy. He
Speaker 2: just he's really good with people. He really understands, you know,
Speaker 2: just how to motivate a team and how to build
Speaker 2: an organization. He's done in different places and I just
Speaker 2: was kind of trying to pick his brain as much
Speaker 2: as I could. And then all the people around him.
Speaker 2: The performance people were pretty special. We got to see
Speaker 2: the young players. You know, it's kind of cool seeing
Speaker 2: the academy.
Speaker 5: That's different than us.
Speaker 2: We have the high school in the college. You guys
Speaker 2: have the academies with the clubs. Talking to those kids
Speaker 2: and their kids. Yet they're very talented, you know. So
Speaker 2: I learned a lot about how small our sporting world
Speaker 2: really is.
Speaker 8: Gotch six year suggestion that a few times you could
Speaker 8: have made full.
Speaker 2: Well, we really do, I mean, you know, the best
Speaker 2: way to put in the end zone the red zones
Speaker 2: to run it in. You know, we haven't been successful
Speaker 2: the last two weeks as we were the first three
Speaker 2: weeks so all, and that's kind of how it works.
Speaker 2: It's a week to week league. But and we've got
Speaker 2: a quarterback that can that can do a lot of
Speaker 2: things in the red zone, that can make plays in
Speaker 2: the red zone. We have receivers to do it. We're
Speaker 2: capable of it. I'm really thankful for Justin he made
Speaker 2: all those kicks. It's probably fun for the crowd here
Speaker 2: to see, but we need to we need to score points.
Speaker 2: That could have been a big could have been a
Speaker 2: much more comfortable game for us if we'd done that.
Speaker 3: Yes, a little bit more on la Mar Jackson's performance.
Speaker 2: Right well, I just think like he made some throws.
Speaker 2: But more than that, you know, there was some some
Speaker 2: situations where guys were covered a little bit, you know,
Speaker 2: and that wasn't easy. That's a really good defense they
Speaker 2: were playing against. Kept plays alive, a couple of critical
Speaker 2: first downs. Thought the seam route up the right side
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter to Mark Andrews. To see that
Speaker 2: route put that random money. Of course Mark made a
Speaker 2: great play on it. That was that was a game
Speaker 2: changing ceiling play right there. Without that play, it's a
Speaker 2: completely different game. So the runs that he made were
Speaker 2: pretty phenomenal, he said.
Speaker 9: You know, finishing the game in those sides of the
Speaker 9: ball kind of finished the game, you know, after the
Speaker 9: tough loss. To see him finish it that way when
Speaker 9: it game got pretty tight. What does that kind of
Speaker 9: say about the improvements that seems?
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I mean we've talked a lot about closing
Speaker 2: games out, you know, becoming closers. You know, we talked
Speaker 2: about the Oils a little bit with that, you know,
Speaker 2: how they were able to close games out this year,
Speaker 2: and that's something that we're striving to do. On both
Speaker 2: sides of the ball. We're not quite as good as
Speaker 2: we need to be yet. I thought our defense made it.
Speaker 2: Really Our defense played good throughout the game. I mean,
Speaker 2: the only first downs they really had were the penalties,
Speaker 2: which we had too many of. And I'm probably not
Speaker 2: going to comment too much on today I went asked about,
Speaker 2: but I'm proud of our defense for getting that last stop.
Speaker 3: Having great stones this season. Just get a touchdown States especially,
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: Great question.
Speaker 2: Foray's obviously made so many nice plays for us and
Speaker 2: he didn't have a touchdown yet. He's only a rookie,
Speaker 2: but we're pretty far into the season. Had took game
Speaker 2: six for him to get his first touchdown. To see it,
Speaker 2: I just had visions of future touchdowns.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: When I saw that, I was like, okay, now, it's
Speaker 2: it's like the analogy my dad always makes. It's like olips,
Speaker 2: open up an olive jar, join you open, you go
Speaker 2: like that, and what happens with an olive jar? Do
Speaker 2: the olives just come pouring out? They don't, right, they
Speaker 2: don't come out.
Speaker 5: What do you gotta do?
Speaker 2: You gotta get the first one out, right, and once
Speaker 2: you get the first one out, the rest of them
Speaker 2: pour out. So hopefully that was Zay's first olive and
Speaker 2: there'll be many more to come.
Speaker 3: John, how difficult was it towards the end of the game.
Speaker 10: I mean, I think you were doing four or five
Speaker 10: defensive players just with the personnel. And also, if you
Speaker 10: have any updates on any of those guys, if you
Speaker 10: believe any.
Speaker 2: More series, right, don't have any any updates now in
Speaker 2: terms of the level of seriousness.
Speaker 5: So we'll see.
Speaker 2: We have to get back home and take a look
Speaker 2: at those right now, nothing on any extray or anything
Speaker 2: like that.
Speaker 5: We do know. That was the rest of the question.
Speaker 10: Just about how difficult it was with the moving personnel
Speaker 10: and all your defenders going out.
Speaker 2: We were out some personnel groups. We had a tough
Speaker 2: time getting our field goal group on the field. That
Speaker 2: was a challenge for us. Getting eleven guys on that
Speaker 2: because sometimes you don't know who's on and off and
Speaker 2: guys kind of forget. That was a big challenge for us.
Speaker 2: But I say this to our personnel, start with Eric Acosta.
Speaker 2: I mean the fact that this team has been through
Speaker 2: this really pretty much almost every game. And I tell you,
Speaker 2: look at the NFL, it's kind of it's becoming more
Speaker 2: and more like that. It's a big challenge. And for
Speaker 2: those guys to come in and not even bad. And
Speaker 2: I look at guys like Jeremiah Moon. You don't know
Speaker 2: Jeremiah Moon. He's out there giving us quality reps. Okay,
Speaker 2: we've got a lot of guys stepping up. Gino Stone,
Speaker 2: I mean, how well has he played this year? And
Speaker 2: he's always done it. So I think Eric has done
Speaker 2: a phenomenal job in terms of doing something that he
Speaker 2: believes and he builds a deep football team, and it's
Speaker 2: really paid off for us so far.
Speaker 3: John kind of your loves one. Colin Hanilson's first.
Speaker 2: Hit in the ajaction, Yeah, I mean it was helmet contact,
Speaker 2: so I understood the flag. The ejection wasn't explained to
Speaker 2: me on the field. They didn't know on the field,
Speaker 2: so came from New York, I guess. So they have
Speaker 2: to explain to us why that's not something we've seen before.
Speaker 2: That's a new one as far as I'm concerned.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you mentioned, you know, the kick being mass
Speaker 6: of their curious momentum wise, how big mus Gino's interception
Speaker 6: at that point, he gets a nice place.
Speaker 2: Now, Brian, such a big play. I mean, you have
Speaker 2: to make plays, you know. I mean you have to
Speaker 2: make plays. You can't. You can't go out there and
Speaker 2: just play perfect and make tackles. If you do that,
Speaker 2: they're gonna move the ball down the field and score
Speaker 2: eventually unless they make a mistake. So you got to
Speaker 2: find a way to come up with a sack. You
Speaker 2: gotta get a sack, Fum, you gotta knock a ball loo,
Speaker 2: you got to get in their reception. And Gino's had
Speaker 2: a couple big ones so far. This year, so that
Speaker 2: was a huge play. You're right.
Speaker 3: Could you just talk about the big craziness that Laura shot.
Speaker 3: Could you just allot right on that?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I just think that he's hung in
Speaker 2: the pocket. He got away. You know, he was holding
Speaker 2: the ball trying to wait for guys to get open.
Speaker 2: So he had a lot of patience in the pocket
Speaker 2: and yet stepping up and making a couple of runs,
Speaker 2: converted some first downs and we had to have him.
Speaker 2: You know, he's not afraid. I mean, Lamar is a
Speaker 2: very courageous guy and you know you have to admire
Speaker 2: him for that.
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Ravens Press Past podcast. Here's what
Speaker 1: quarterback Lamar Jackson said after the Doves.
Speaker 3: What's your train?
Speaker 5: Ravens?
Speaker 7: Fuck?
Speaker 6: Uh?
Speaker 4: It was phenomenal or the atmosphere was crazy. I think
Speaker 4: I heard a lot of Ravens fans in the crowd. Uh,
Speaker 4: even though it was Tennessee home. I believe our fans
Speaker 4: went crazy. That's what I believe. What crazy atmosphere.
Speaker 3: You know what something about same clauses and people right, like,
Speaker 3: this's longer than night. If you know, you know, you
Speaker 3: stip into trade stick yourself.
Speaker 5: Far was it I did.
Speaker 11: Uh.
Speaker 5: Actually, that's that's funny.
Speaker 12: Uh.
Speaker 4: His brother was great, you know great when we were
Speaker 4: little kids, Like even in the high school, his brother was.
Speaker 4: They used to call his brother Joystick. And I told him, like,
Speaker 4: you gonna have to steal that name cause you different.
Speaker 4: You don't win the lead now, so you gotta take
Speaker 4: that name from.
Speaker 12: Uh.
Speaker 3: I know you, ye, you'll you You'll take wins with However,
Speaker 3: they calm. It was like what was kind of the
Speaker 3: frustration level when the Renton I.
Speaker 10: Mean, you guys for first three weeks we were talking
Speaker 10: about how you guys almost going to back.
Speaker 5: They won for six and Rentent See what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: I think that's what it was.
Speaker 4: You guys want to hyping it up a little bit,
Speaker 4: you know, Jeanie stuffs a little bit. Just keep it
Speaker 4: down a little bit when we having so much success
Speaker 4: in the Redson.
Speaker 5: But uh, we just.
Speaker 4: Have to find a way, you know, uh, lock in more.
Speaker 4: We get we do a great job, but dropping the
Speaker 4: ball down the field. But it's like every time we
Speaker 4: get there, it's like we just kicking field goals. It's
Speaker 4: up the top. But we don't need that, you know,
Speaker 4: protect the ball. The biggest emphasis was we cul we
Speaker 4: caught the ball this week, we drove the ball down
Speaker 4: the field and we protected that except for that one interception.
Speaker 5: But we gotta we gotta punch it in.
Speaker 4: You know, that's gonna help our defense out of lot
Speaker 4: and they doing a g great job protecting us.
Speaker 3: You wish they you would've you ran the ball a lot,
Speaker 3: resent Do you wish you would have been the front bit.
Speaker 4: I mean they they defense pretty great, you know. They
Speaker 4: They wasn't giving us no, no real chances of making passes.
Speaker 5: You know, they paid great.
Speaker 4: I wasn't trying to run the ball, but it w
Speaker 4: it was what it was, you know, and we still
Speaker 4: finished with the field goals.
Speaker 9: Or I'm just wondering after saying what we can And
Speaker 9: how did you feel.
Speaker 3: Entering this game? How'd you feel like the guys were
Speaker 3: entering this game? Uh?
Speaker 11: Did y?
Speaker 3: Did you Bry feel right?
Speaker 9: Did you feel like it was a good decision the ends?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I believe it was a great decision for us to
Speaker 4: be out here early, you know, instead of us coming
Speaker 4: out here like you know, last minute and then trying
Speaker 4: to let our body cope with you know, what's going
Speaker 4: on with this atmosphere is time and stuff like that.
Speaker 5: It was a great decision by coaches.
Speaker 3: Lamar, you guys threw up fifteen at half time. Then
Speaker 3: they got going a little bit.
Speaker 10: How did you guys as a team prevent like the
Speaker 10: here we go again from seeping in and what was
Speaker 10: kind of the key and kind of turning them on
Speaker 10: man in the back in your favor?
Speaker 5: Uh, just lock it down.
Speaker 4: They got that turnover, like I said, they got that turnover.
Speaker 4: Number zero made a heck of a catch. They got
Speaker 4: that turnover and they had momentum. You know, they drove
Speaker 4: the ball down end up scoring or field goal, I believe.
Speaker 4: But our job was to you know, stay.
Speaker 5: Locked there and don't let that you know, overwhelm us.
Speaker 4: Just keep staying out there and try to put draw
Speaker 4: the ball down the field and make something happen.
Speaker 7: Well, have congratinations on one side your head described performances
Speaker 7: on the most garage you see scene.
Speaker 3: From you so far?
Speaker 9: And what's it mean when you catch say something like
Speaker 9: that and.
Speaker 3: Just have fun you guys.
Speaker 4: Uh, I mean it's a lot uh come from our
Speaker 4: head coach, Uh, definitely, But uh, how far we can
Speaker 4: go to season? The sky's the limit. As I've been
Speaker 4: saying all season, but we have to finish in the
Speaker 4: end zone. We need to find a way to score points.
Speaker 4: And I believe that's what's slowing us down. We we
Speaker 4: dropped the ball down the field. No problem has been
Speaker 4: happening every s every game. But it's the red zone,
Speaker 4: part the black zone. We need to find a way
Speaker 4: to get pu punch it in and we'll go from
Speaker 4: there in.
Speaker 3: A lot of games.
Speaker 13: See, you gotta be more moreloyable, more and more sos
Speaker 13: of comomy, freass and brost of the seas, especially if.
Speaker 14: Your opposition out of boy, it was in for you
Speaker 14: to come out of age the ball and shut it
Speaker 14: for fans.
Speaker 5: Uh, it was. It was.
Speaker 4: It was our job to you know, to put on
Speaker 4: the show for the fans, you know, because basketball has
Speaker 4: been taking over soccer football has been taken over.
Speaker 5: But to have the American football to put on a
Speaker 5: great show.
Speaker 4: For the fans and you know, the people at home.
Speaker 4: It was tremendous. It was our job to do and
Speaker 4: I believe we we did quite a good job to do.
Speaker 1: That was uarterback Lamar Jackson. We also had a chance
Speaker 1: to talk with linebacker Patrick queen, how.
Speaker 7: Would you describe the intensity off the games of playing
Speaker 7: against the Times. It's see class, it's becoming some rivalry
Speaker 7: between you guys.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's definitely.
Speaker 12: Uh you know that started before I even got here,
Speaker 12: uh with Ray and it and then uh, you know
Speaker 12: the stuff that happened in twenty nineteen, and then when
Speaker 12: I came in twenty twenty, so it was a little
Speaker 12: bit of history already started, you know, and then coming
Speaker 12: out here in front of the fans, which were electric,
Speaker 12: uh for us being out of the country and stuff.
Speaker 12: So you definitely feel that intensity. It was very high.
Speaker 12: Every play, every snop, it was uh high intensity.
Speaker 14: Got you got how would you kind of assess, you know,
Speaker 14: how how you guys held on despite losing the the
Speaker 14: stafeties that you did in how here such as Slotman's
Speaker 14: the defense, but for other's guys to come in and.
Speaker 3: Not really miss being there's your house on the other
Speaker 3: back end there.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 12: Uh, that's the way we prepare. Everybody know their job. Uh,
Speaker 12: we got faking everybody to come in and do their
Speaker 12: job at a high level. Shout out to Eric for
Speaker 12: you know, getting everybody that we need. And we just
Speaker 12: went out there and played football. We g we all
Speaker 12: brothers in the locker room and we got each other back.
Speaker 12: All we gotta go go out there and do is
Speaker 12: just talking communicating. Just go play football at a high
Speaker 12: level here.
Speaker 3: Patrick, what will get to you?
Speaker 14: Like seek SATs in one game and is keep happening
Speaker 14: every game.
Speaker 12: Uh, that's why we preach, uh getting to the quarterback
Speaker 12: and whoever number we call to go do that job.
Speaker 12: Uh we expect them to do their job. So when
Speaker 12: they call my name and expect me to go do
Speaker 12: my job, I do my job at a high level
Speaker 12: and I take a lot of product trying to get
Speaker 12: to the quarterback.
Speaker 9: After this, this defense is claim really well, is is
Speaker 9: there kind of a mindset developing of Alright, you know
Speaker 9: we only need x number of points and at what
Speaker 9: we only end up from the defensive perspective.
Speaker 12: Yeah, we always say the offense can't score, they can't win.
Speaker 12: So as long as we do our job keep them
Speaker 12: out of the end zone, you know, we have a good,
Speaker 12: pretty good shot at winning. And the field goals. That's
Speaker 12: what we're preaching on now, is just not even letting
Speaker 12: them get in.
Speaker 3: The field goal range.
Speaker 12: Uh, trying to take that away it's a few players
Speaker 12: here and there that we could clean up and s
Speaker 12: you know, shut that down. But for the most part
Speaker 12: we're pretty produd of the way we're playing. It's just
Speaker 12: a few players and clean up here and there.
Speaker 10: Patrick, Oh, who was kind of your grati sony officials,
Speaker 10: you know to say that col Hamiltons.
Speaker 12: Be injected from Uh. I mean it's a tough car.
Speaker 12: I mean, honestly, I I don't think he shoulda been injected.
Speaker 12: It wasn't hit kind of vicious, I mean not really
Speaker 12: not intended, but you know, whatever, call the whatever the
Speaker 12: official made, whatever car he made. You know, we just
Speaker 12: gotta roll with it and just play football at that point. Uh,
Speaker 12: I mean, I don't see anything wrong with playing football
Speaker 12: the end of the day. And he c try to go
Speaker 12: for the ball of field down so I mean, I
Speaker 12: know coll didn't intentionally try to hit him in the head,
Speaker 12: but you know, it's it's a sport that we play now,
Speaker 12: so we just gotta adapt.
Speaker 10: I drink uh lot of guys, and there's so much
Speaker 10: attention what happened in London in the past.
Speaker 3: Which very few if you guys, even experienced that. How
Speaker 3: please are you just how you best do.
Speaker 10: Car business all the week, everything from the preparation to
Speaker 10: hit the win today And how much did that kind
Speaker 10: of booy you guys coming forward?
Speaker 12: Uh that comes from the guys behind the scene. Uh
Speaker 12: that don't get talked about equipment, video guys or nutrition
Speaker 12: and all that stuff.
Speaker 3: Behind the scenes. They take care of us.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 12: They really make our job easy. We don't have to
Speaker 12: total around a lot of stuff. You know, the traveling
Speaker 12: was good. Everything was good. Hospitality from all the people
Speaker 12: at the hotel really made our job easy. From coming
Speaker 12: here early, trying to adjust to the time, adjust our bodies,
Speaker 12: U practice on the field, you know, gett everything that
Speaker 12: we need right here, and all the people behind the
Speaker 12: scenes just made it real easy for us. So it's
Speaker 12: special shout off to them.
Speaker 1: That was linebacker Patrick Queen, defensive lineman Justin Mattabek. You
Speaker 1: had a big game for the defense. Also talked about
Speaker 1: the win.
Speaker 3: Just also kind of similar cross time. Just have to
Speaker 3: Patrick Queen just to be able to come here and
Speaker 3: people to schedule and all the changes of rewarding is
Speaker 3: it to kind of get the win.
Speaker 8: Well, it's a good feeling, you know. I feel like
Speaker 8: special teams offense, defense. We all were quicking. Obviously not
Speaker 8: the perfect game that we wanted, but rarely.
Speaker 3: Is it in that case.
Speaker 8: So I'm glad we got to win, especially coming all
Speaker 8: the way for the nine States to hear and dealing
Speaker 8: with just the differences and stuff like that. So it
Speaker 8: was just it feels good to get a win here,
Speaker 8: just in uh.
Speaker 14: A lot of those lines, you know, John Harlots, instead
Speaker 14: of the TV you guys have I had your good
Speaker 14: team with the chance of being great, I mean, did today.
Speaker 3: They would just step forward in that process or really
Speaker 3: just kind of the same.
Speaker 8: No, definitely have the same step forward every time we
Speaker 8: get a win. I fuck, get a step forward. You know,
Speaker 8: There's definitely things we need to clean up, but definitely
Speaker 8: step forward in terms of just execution and just ECU
Speaker 8: D like dominance, especially on defense. So definitely a step
Speaker 8: forward for sure.
Speaker 9: Doesn't just what was working so well for the pass
Speaker 9: rush A and for you personally, how much are you
Speaker 9: enjoyed sometimes playing on the edge.
Speaker 8: I love that edge, like anywhere on the defensive line,
Speaker 8: like nose tackle in I I I enjoy I just
Speaker 8: love playing the defensive line first of all. Second, I
Speaker 8: just feel like on the pass rush or just communication,
Speaker 8: Kyle communicating with me, Gidavion, QUI communicate with me, Mike.
Speaker 3: Brody Traff.
Speaker 8: Everybody's to be on the same page, everybody having the
Speaker 8: same mind frame in order to attack the offensive line
Speaker 8: of our posing team. I feel like that's what uh
Speaker 8: helped uh uh execute at a high level.
Speaker 15: So I just did what's the life gutten up gets
Speaker 15: sell out there, Henry and out of them, maybe all
Speaker 15: the one you guys seem to to bring to Chip and.
Speaker 3: Keep doing checks today.
Speaker 8: Yeah, he's a a good a good player, definitely one
Speaker 8: of the FA favorite players the National Football League. He
Speaker 8: gets disrespect, but you know, it was definitely an emphasis
Speaker 8: throughout the whole week to stop him at the line
Speaker 8: of the scrimmage. He definitely got that good exposive run.
Speaker 8: But outside of that, I feel like we contain it pretty.
Speaker 7: Well justin how would you describe your your experience playing
Speaker 7: a lot of the in front of the European.
Speaker 3: Pass It was fun.
Speaker 8: It's definitely more fun when you get a dug uh
Speaker 8: when you get a win, But uh, it was fun,
Speaker 8: you know, practicing here, you know, seeing the city a
Speaker 8: little bit, and then definitely uh focusing in practice to
Speaker 8: get a win on Sunday is what we plan to do,
Speaker 8: and that's what we got done. So we're gonna enjoy it,
Speaker 8: you know, but we have a a tough hond of
Speaker 8: next week too.
Speaker 1: So that was t as a lineman Justin atabike and
Speaker 1: in the locker room after the game, kicker Justin Tucker,
Speaker 1: who had six field goals on the game, talked about
Speaker 1: the Victory's.
Speaker 9: Pretty cool to to kick six field goals on the
Speaker 9: international stage and all that. Just can you describe just
Speaker 9: kind of how cool that is for you personally?
Speaker 11: Uh, you know, it was pretty cool to you know,
Speaker 11: kind of feel a love from the fans. You know,
Speaker 11: obviously this is a place in the world where they
Speaker 11: love kickers of balls. So uh, being able to put
Speaker 11: on just a little bit of a show for him
Speaker 11: was was a lot of fun. You know, our guys
Speaker 11: did a great job of getting us in position to
Speaker 11: have those opportunities in the first place. Tyler did an
Speaker 11: excellent job, Jordan did an excellent job, you know. So
Speaker 11: being able to keep the momentum going for for our
Speaker 11: team in a positive way just by knocking down kicks
Speaker 11: was you know, it was meaningful for us toward winning
Speaker 11: the football game.
Speaker 7: Just something.
Speaker 3: We'll talk about the turf a little bit. Was it
Speaker 3: different kicking on this this? Was it a different turf
Speaker 3: ever that you know, is it similar to the other
Speaker 3: churchs that you kicked on.
Speaker 13: I'm not gonna get it into all that right now.
Speaker 11: Just if win or lose, if I complain about something,
Speaker 11: not that I would complain, but if I were to
Speaker 11: complain about something that you know doesn't necessarily mean anything
Speaker 11: to anybody.
Speaker 13: So I'll just say, Uh, I'm happy.
Speaker 11: That we were able to manage the surface and get
Speaker 11: out here with a win.
Speaker 9: I'm just curious this week in practice, it seemed like
Speaker 9: the soccer players, even the soccer players are kind of
Speaker 9: taken watching you kick, like just by how far you can,
Speaker 9: can't get whatever?
Speaker 14: Like you said, they're kickers of boss right.
Speaker 13: Indeed, what was it.
Speaker 3: Like this week?
Speaker 9: And did you have any like fun conversations with them
Speaker 9: about that?
Speaker 13: Uh?
Speaker 11: We did, yeah, so probably not necessarily about you know,
Speaker 11: growing up playing soccer or football or whatever. One of
Speaker 11: the one of the funniest conversations I feel like we
Speaker 11: had all week. Uh, Tyler and Jordan and I had
Speaker 11: an opportunity to go and watch the UA team Tottenham
Speaker 11: squad play, just to just briefly during our Friday practice
Speaker 11: when the specialists weren't involved.
Speaker 13: We just we walked, just walked.
Speaker 11: Over to stretch our legs and then kind of happened
Speaker 11: upon a match and was talking to like a couple
Speaker 11: of the maybe maybe reserved guys or younger guys that
Speaker 11: were they were spectators for the day. There was one
Speaker 11: kid who was doing his best American accent. Uh, while
Speaker 11: I've just been butchering the English language with my British
Speaker 11: accent all week.
Speaker 13: This kid was hilarious. Ye, I mean he had us rolling.
Speaker 13: He's like, hey, let's go Spurs, Let's get some barbecue
Speaker 13: after the game. Bro, let's go to Olive Garden. It
Speaker 13: was u it was all.
Speaker 11: But Uh, that was probably my favorite conversation I had
Speaker 11: with a real footballer while while we were here.
Speaker 14: How do you feel about the like the stadium, like
Speaker 14: the really enclosed stadium, or like the wind factors really mad?
Speaker 3: Did the biler like on the kicks?
Speaker 13: Yeah?
Speaker 11: So we came here on Friday afternoon, the specialists, uh,
Speaker 11: came to the stadium to kind of get the lay
Speaker 11: of the land and see what the you know, what
Speaker 11: the surface was like, and how the wind was, what
Speaker 11: the wind patterns may be in the stadium, And on
Speaker 11: that particular day, it was a little drizzly and the
Speaker 11: wind was kind of like whipping through even though it
Speaker 11: does look like it, you know, would be more enclosed.
Speaker 11: As soon as we walked in, I thought the stadium
Speaker 11: kind of reminded me of like what Miami's stadium looks like,
Speaker 11: or what Seattle Stadium looks like, where there's like the
Speaker 11: awnings hanging over all of the ends and the sides,
Speaker 11: which you would think would cut down on, you know,
Speaker 11: the wind or the weather or what have you, but
Speaker 11: you know, thankfully kind of held off.
Speaker 13: Today.
Speaker 11: It was a it was a pretty it was pretty
Speaker 11: nice day, Like I was. The one thing I was
Speaker 11: struggling to do was just stay warm on the sidelines.
Speaker 11: We're very spoiled and when when we're back back in Baltimore,
Speaker 11: like if it gets blowed, I'm probably a little bit
Speaker 11: more del lated than many of my teammates.
Speaker 13: Oh and I'm just sitting sitting there. It was I
Speaker 13: we just thing that was just spitting out room town.
Speaker 11: You know, just add that, add that to the list,
Speaker 11: but I tell the guys to tell Tyler and Jordan
Speaker 11: every week. You know, hey, we're gonna face adversity and
Speaker 11: the measure of us as you know, football players and
Speaker 11: as men is just how we handle it.
Speaker 13: So not having heated benches it was tough, but you know,
Speaker 13: we're glad to make it out here.
Speaker 9: With a winner, justin I think you're the only one
Speaker 9: that was here in twenty seventeen. What does it mean
Speaker 9: to have a better performance in front of these fans
Speaker 9: and get a witness then?
Speaker 13: Yeah, I know, I know there were a couple of guys.
Speaker 11: You know, I don't want to miss anybody, so but
Speaker 11: I know, h you know, like pat Riccard is here,
Speaker 11: Marlon Bronnie, They're a handful of guys. But you know,
Speaker 11: to be able to come out here, and I think, uh,
Speaker 11: management and you know, the powers that be did a
Speaker 11: great job of managing the week and the travel and
Speaker 11: all of the all of the stuff that goes into
Speaker 11: a trip across the pond to play football game. I
Speaker 11: think I think our team did a really good job
Speaker 11: of handling Matt And yeah, definitely much better result this
Speaker 11: go around and than the last time, which we don't
Speaker 11: we don't even to talk about that anymore.
Speaker 3: John John mention that.
Speaker 6: Obvious like kicking your feel, which the kind of easing
Speaker 6: you guys more than pushing furies for nests if you
Speaker 6: felt that at all, about put in a momentum shift earlier
Speaker 6: and took you feel like the game you guys.
Speaker 11: Of course, of course we're always tuned into the game
Speaker 11: and the situations that that could unfold before us. So, uh,
Speaker 11: that particular situation, Yeah, we know exactly what the stakes
Speaker 11: are by making that kick.
Speaker 13: Yeah, just like you said, we give ourselves.
Speaker 11: A little bit more of a cushion, uh to let
Speaker 11: our defenses go out there and you know, close out
Speaker 11: the game, let our hands team go out there and
Speaker 11: close out the game.
Speaker 13: But uh, to your original question is like, do you
Speaker 13: know are we clue? Are we kind of focused in?
Speaker 11: Absolutely? Yes, which is which brings me to a very
Speaker 11: important point. My awareness rating on Madden is for some reason,
Speaker 11: very very low, and I think that's the only reason
Speaker 11: why I might not be like a you know, higher
Speaker 11: rated overall. So you know, maybe by explaining that to you,
Speaker 11: you know, the Badden ratings adjusters can give my awareness
Speaker 11: rating a boost.
Speaker 13: I think it's at like a like a fifty. It's
Speaker 13: just abysmal.
Speaker 11: Maybe it'll maybe it'll be a fifty two an honored
Speaker 11: Ray Lewis.
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Ravens Press Pass podcast. After the win,
Speaker 1: safety Kyle Hamilton talk with the media. It was a
Speaker 1: disappointing game for Kyle personally because he got ejected for
Speaker 1: a helmet to helmet hit in that matchup, but he
Speaker 1: still was excited about the victory. He talked to the
Speaker 1: media after the win.
Speaker 16: I didn't know at first. I'd heard the rev stays
Speaker 16: and I knew it was the flyer, heard the red
Speaker 16: staite sound. Thinking everybody on the defense started questioning me
Speaker 16: being injected and then looked over and nobody really told
Speaker 16: me I got ejected.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I just assume that, Okay, got a game
Speaker 3: so obviously tough.
Speaker 16: My family's here, so have to see them travel this
Speaker 16: way and not seeing them, you know, call the reade
Speaker 16: and got to live with him.
Speaker 3: He just described to play him. Definitely just take this.
Speaker 16: To Yeah, I mean it's playing middlefield with the post quarterback.
Speaker 16: I saw him throw the ball, driving all the ball
Speaker 16: and then turned into the receiver. Uh, split second hit him.
Speaker 16: Try to get the ball out. You know, he came up,
Speaker 16: shake him up, unfortunately, So praying for him. Hopefully he's
Speaker 16: doing wells back week or whoever comes back. But yeah,
Speaker 16: I mean, like you said, nothing malicious about it from
Speaker 16: my perspective, wasn't trying to hurt him, wasn't trying to
Speaker 16: do anything bad.
Speaker 3: To give him explanation from anybody about why.
Speaker 16: You uh, I, like I said, I didn't even know.
Speaker 16: I was dejected to someone on the defense said it.
Speaker 16: I asked the reps who were near me, and they
Speaker 16: said they didn't know what was going on, and nobody
Speaker 16: really telling the respect it as well too.
Speaker 10: So I mean obviously I watch, but like as you
Speaker 10: walking to you, you sup, well, not not if.
Speaker 5: Anyone particularly what you could be or what was this stuff?
Speaker 16: Yeah, I mean, just hear the momentum. We'll try to
Speaker 16: take it back right now with them's trying to for
Speaker 16: everybody's feelings or anything. Just obviously disagree with Paul in
Speaker 16: the moment and not being able to see it back.
Speaker 16: I do agree that maybe a flag should have been thrown,
Speaker 16: but I don't know what coming out this way of
Speaker 16: being out here.
Speaker 3: For a week. I have a mom my, brother, come
Speaker 3: out here.
Speaker 16: It's my brother's birthday.
Speaker 3: You know, it's just stuff that being pushing again.
Speaker 9: You watch them like on your friend, have you lit
Speaker 9: the system?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have seen it.
Speaker 5: After seeing it, I'm I mean, I know it's the
Speaker 5: call that was made.
Speaker 3: Is it made a hundred percent of time? I don't know.
Speaker 16: But at the same time, it's call has made. So
Speaker 16: uh don't have really really any quarrels.
Speaker 3: What they call itself. But I mean, obviously don't fret too.
Speaker 16: But at the end of day's story is not about
Speaker 16: me and he came out here. We gotta win. Everybody's
Speaker 16: locking focus. Shout out you under the pick. But yeah,
Speaker 16: it just goes to show off DVR as a team.
Speaker 16: Guys just stepping on both sides of fall special teams, whatever,
Speaker 16: and get the job doing so.
Speaker 1: Quarterback Marlon Huffer, who's one of the defensive leaders of
Speaker 1: his team, talked about the strong showing from the defense.
Speaker 17: I mean, I think we had some moments and then
Speaker 17: we had some not some good moments. But I really
Speaker 17: have to look at the film, it seems like it
Speaker 17: was it seems like it was just okay, I think
Speaker 17: you know, big run me to two penalties a couple
Speaker 17: of the guys, so I think I was just kind
Speaker 17: of grated as okay, allus always great to win, but uh,
Speaker 17: I know my performance was very you know, subpar, But
Speaker 17: I think defensively, I I would we're not really hanging
Speaker 17: our heads, but we're not really too excited as well,
Speaker 17: so okay, we're probably the best with us. Describe it,
Speaker 17: would you?
Speaker 9: Where do you get the energy in the fans today
Speaker 9: and what does it mean to get a win for
Speaker 9: those Ravens fans who live abroad or camera came rup.
Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely huge.
Speaker 17: I think last time we came, we obviously wasn't it
Speaker 17: wasn't too fun, uh going back, but you know, with
Speaker 17: my family being in town, they said there was Ravens
Speaker 17: fans everywhere. So one thing that Raves fans do is
Speaker 17: they travel. So it was really cool to be able
Speaker 17: to get this win kind of get that Steeler's slump office.
Speaker 17: I know, Uh, I don't think any Ravens fans would
Speaker 17: have it this past week, so uh, getting this win,
Speaker 17: uh hopefully can can we can get our fans back?
Speaker 17: So uh, I know they didn't go anywhere, but you know,
Speaker 17: we don't. We don't like losing a to to those guys.
Speaker 17: So to win this game was really big.
Speaker 9: What is it?
Speaker 1: What do you say about Geno Stone and he steps
Speaker 1: in and gets a pick? Just how how well does
Speaker 1: he play when he's kind of thrust into those moments?
Speaker 5: It seems like that's that's kind of what he does. Obviously.
Speaker 17: You know when we signed this offseason, you know we
Speaker 17: knew the great team or he was, but his his
Speaker 17: his depth is value at at safety's really shown up huge.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 17: Obviously, Marcus being out early on, you know, he's anytime
Speaker 17: you can step in and when you got a free
Speaker 17: agen signed as big as Marcus and you don't really
Speaker 17: miss a beat. That's a really really good thing. So
Speaker 17: Gena's been playing lights out and I just, uh hope
Speaker 17: he keeps it going.
Speaker 1: What did you say anything to Kyle? You know when
Speaker 1: he tough, tough situation for him to to get ejected,
Speaker 1: would you say anything to him in that moment, knowing
Speaker 1: how tough that is for him?
Speaker 17: Yeah, it was, it was, I mean, happened really fast.
Speaker 17: It seemed like he was just ejected. We were kind
Speaker 17: of confused, but you know, talking with him, you know
Speaker 17: he he'll be playing for free. But you know obviously
Speaker 17: you I mean, the call is a call, but I'm
Speaker 17: sure he'll he'll bounce back from and he'll be he'll.
Speaker 3: Be fine and more than I'm sure with the all fit.
Speaker 3: A lot of fans are waiting for the UK.
Speaker 17: Version of a victory Instagram, like, oh, you know, every
Speaker 17: time I put on outfit run away game, I'm always
Speaker 17: thinking about victorri Algi Live. So this will this w
Speaker 17: I actually got this in London here I forgot to
Speaker 17: Todd Bota, so it was actually I it. It wasn't
Speaker 17: tired ever, but we're really excited about Big Trigi Live
Speaker 17: UK style. So uh so it'll be a lot better
Speaker 17: than the last trip when we just went to sleep.
Speaker 17: So I think we'll spend amount a hour celebrating this one,
Speaker 17: and then when we land we'll be back to business.
Speaker 14: That BK said that, you know, because you guys won,
Speaker 14: it feels like a step forward in that you know path,
Speaker 14: the greatness, the you know kind of being going from
Speaker 14: good to create that John Harb I'll talking about on Wednesday.
Speaker 14: I guess what, what's your kind of big picture of
Speaker 14: view of this whim that maybe you know, you guys
Speaker 14: could have won. Buy more but you got the win
Speaker 14: and you're going home with the tub.
Speaker 17: Yeah, you know, I think, uh, when you sometimes heartbreak
Speaker 17: losses can really you can lose two from that. So
Speaker 17: I think, you know, like I said, get getting that
Speaker 17: slump off of office from the last one.
Speaker 5: It's really big.
Speaker 17: You know, I always didn't obviously didn't play perfect at all,
Speaker 17: but this can definitely be kind of a step in
Speaker 17: that direction.
Speaker 5: And uh, we just kind of build.
Speaker 9: Off this one.
Speaker 1: I tackle Ronnie Stanley discussed the win and what it
Speaker 1: means for this team.
Speaker 3: Is there a common dominator of the red zone?
Speaker 15: You know, it's kind of hard to say right now.
Speaker 15: You know, we'll have to go look at the film
Speaker 15: and kind of see what's happening. But yeah, I'm not
Speaker 15: I can't speak on the coming at right now running from.
Speaker 1: A big picture of you Just what does this win
Speaker 1: mean coming off the Steelers game, to come out here
Speaker 1: and get a win against.
Speaker 15: A tough team. Yeah, I mean, it's always great, great
Speaker 15: to bounce back off the loss. And you know, last
Speaker 15: week was heartbreaking to say the least. We knew we
Speaker 15: needed to get back on track and you know, coming
Speaker 15: here is going to be a challenge for both teams
Speaker 15: to be.
Speaker 13: Able to adapt and overcome.
Speaker 15: And I'm proud of the guys in the way they handled,
Speaker 15: you know, everything, all the challenges and coming out here
Speaker 15: and getting a dug and we just got to make
Speaker 15: sure we grow on this and you know, don't go backwards.
Speaker 1: There was a lot made of coming out here early,
Speaker 1: getting out here on Monday, and spending the entire week here.
Speaker 1: What if any impact do you think that had once
Speaker 1: the game started.
Speaker 15: I think it was a big impact to be able
Speaker 15: to get used to this time zone, cause you know,
Speaker 15: it's probably nine am our time on kickoff, and I
Speaker 15: know that's not really a lot of guys are not
Speaker 15: really up and ready to be violent at that time.
Speaker 15: So to be able to come and get used to it,
Speaker 15: I think definitely helped us.
Speaker 3: You know, FRONI, what do you think the coaches and
Speaker 3: the leaders on this team were included? Instead of a
Speaker 3: lost Faceburg the last week wouldn't beat you.
Speaker 13: Guys for a second week in round basically, so that
Speaker 13: a long time.
Speaker 14: Yeah, what did the leaders and the coaches on this
Speaker 14: team do to stave off the like any chance of
Speaker 14: that loss to Steelers leaking over into this week?
Speaker 15: I think we did what we always do is we
Speaker 15: just come come to work with a singular focus and
Speaker 15: everyone's just locked in.
Speaker 17: I think.
Speaker 15: Us as leaders on the team, and we just kind
Speaker 15: of made sure that everyone has just had that same
Speaker 15: focus as we did, and you know, just working on
Speaker 15: the fundamentals or to be catching.
Speaker 13: The ball, holding the ball, holding your blocks, being on
Speaker 13: the right page and just executing.
Speaker 10: And you know, we had a really.
Speaker 13: Sharp week of practice.
Speaker 9: And to show.
