Man, some guys, 152 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 4: some head coach up and around them, don't really care 153 00:05:58,520 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 4: to get to know the player. They just want you 154 00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 4: to come and play and put the work in.

I don't know what happened. 234 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 5: It's blaming our rust, blaming our rust. 235 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 2: That's what I'm each week. 236 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 4: I'm determined to get better and better and better and 237 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 4: just keep working at it. It's gonna come from the 238 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 4: practice and the work we're pitting in throughout the weekend. 239 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 4: I believe the fun I'm having to enjoying the game 240 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 4: right now, all that's gonna just play together roll over 241 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 4: to Sundays. 242 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 243 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 5: I mean, you look like you're having fun out there. 244 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 5: And and Mike McDonald's defense. One thing that since he 245 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 5: became a defensive coordinator here, everyone says that he basically 246 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 5: finds ways to put players in positions so maximize their talent. 247 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,719 Speaker 5: I think Kyle Hamilton is probably a good example of that. 248 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 5: From last week's game. He's you know, he comes downhill 249 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 5: and he's got three sacks coming off the edge. He's 250 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 5: used you in some creative ways. What is it about 251 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 5: the way that he, you know, Bill's his defense and 252 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 5: is utilizing you really stands out here, man. 253 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 4: I think Mike pretty pretty smart man. One of the 254 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 4: best defensive corners i'n't had for a young one in 255 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 4: a long time. 256 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 2: The way he moves. 257 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 4: Guys around, like you say, not disguising and teach him 258 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 4: how to show one thing and move something else, make 259 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 4: it look like here we're coming from here. It's so different. 260 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 4: It's crazy and I'm loving it. I was like, bro, 261 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 4: keep bringing whatever you're doing.

And he ain't the 265 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 4: guy that gonna sit back now and let you pick 266 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 4: him apart. And he got an attitude about hisself. And 267 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 4: you can tell about it. What he called a game. 268 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 4: You just know what he called it. He aggressive and 269 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 4: he getting out the guys.

You know, 276 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: that's that's a badge of honor that you wear for 277 00:10:59,280 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: your whole career. 278 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 2: Year. 279 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, what's that like as a young guy?

I 287 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 4: going to trying to captain, have a great camp. You know, 288 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 4: I think I'm tearing everybody up, you know, week one, 289 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 4: come I get hurt, you know, yeah, this is the 290 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 4: whole year, and that time probably was the first time 291 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 4: of my life I probably had a face to real adversity. 292 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 4: You know, all my life I've been growing up.

Guy that's that's been through a lot in 512 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 5: his career, highs and lows, and it would I appreciate 513 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 5: his candor and willingness to be as open as he was. 514 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it seems like he's just in a 515 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 1: really good place, you know, physically and mentally. 516 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 3: You know, it's just like it's just been a really 517 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 3: good fit here. 518 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 2: You know. 519 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: And I think you don't know when you sign a guy, 520 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 1: a veteran like that. He's bounced around a little bit 521 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: and had all these stops. You're like, you know, why 522 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: is that and what not and how's it gonna work? 523 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: And it's just worked out beautifully. Yeah, And you know 524 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 1: he's playing well, he's fitting into the locker room really well. 525 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,479 Speaker 1: He seems to really get along with his teammates a 526 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 1: lot and the coaches, and you know, it almost feels 527 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: like it's a you know, who knows how much much 528 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,360 Speaker 1: longer he's gonna play, but it's like this revived kind 529 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: of new stage of his career, this new chapter kind of. 530 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 5: I mean, look, we've seen this with other players throughout 531 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 5: the Ravens history, John Harbaugh's time here. Like it seems 532 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 5: like the culture here is really strong and that veteran 533 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 5: players can come here from other teams and feel like 534 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 5: they're welcomed and feel like the organization, the team, the 535 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 5: players embrace them. Ye Odell has talked about that, Jadevian 536 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 5: talked about that, Mark, Steve Smith, Marcus Peters. There's a 537 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 5: bunch of guys. If you go back and you look 538 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 5: at where that just feels like it's worked beautifully. I 539 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 5: think Clowny's a good example of that. I think he's 540 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 5: playing well and man like, especially when you look at 541 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 5: where the Raves are injury wise right now, that like 542 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 5: a Jabo and Oway are hurt right now, tyas Bowser 543 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 5: still on the field man position. It's good to have 544 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 5: Clowney on this team right now. 545 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's kind of crazy. 546 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 2: You know. 547 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: He's like the goal was to play seventeen games to 548 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: stay healthy, and that's been kind of a bugaboo for him. 549 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: Well goodness gracious, he's you know, not the only man standing, 550 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: but not far from it right now, and like they're 551 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: leaning on him to stay healthy and keep playing. And 552 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: it's a yeah, knock on wood he. 553 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 5: Has, yeah, I think. And it's you know, one and 554 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 5: a half sacks of these three games, and like he said, 555 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,199 Speaker 5: could have had at least two more. You know, I 556 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 5: think that, like he's just playing at a really high level. 557 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 5: He's getting after the quarterback. He's disruptive, he's the team 558 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 5: in pressure. Like he looks to me like pressure Ray. 559 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 5: He looks like when rate. You know, the reason he 560 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 5: was an Ember one overall pick is he's a game wrecker, 561 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 5: like everyone remembers the play back when he was in 562 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 5: South Carolina where he you know, took the head off 563 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 5: of the Michigan player. Like everyone's seen that highlight a 564 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 5: million times, and like he can he can be a 565 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 5: game wrecker, and I think that we're seeing elements of 566 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 5: that this year. And I just I also thought it 567 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 5: was interesting him talking about how he's used. 568 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, that it's it's a lot different than Cleveland. 569 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: I think, you know, they had Miles Garrett there last year, 570 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: and a lot of stuff is kind of set up 571 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: for Miles Garrett for him to succeed, and I think 572 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: that Jadeveon here it's set up more for him to succeed, 573 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 1: you know, and other guys of course, But like I 574 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 1: think he's just not locked into as much of a 575 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: box and he's got a more versatile role and I 576 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: think he's really enjoying that. Yeah, it is interesting though. 577 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 1: You know, I remember when he first went out to 578 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 1: the practice field the first time, I was like, oh, 579 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: he is like thinner than I thought than I expected. 580 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: Like you see, like you're talking about you see that 581 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: South Carolina clip of him captating the guy, Yeah, and 582 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 1: you're like that was a big big man, you know, 583 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: and like he's still tall, but he's like lankier than I. 584 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 5: Thought, kind of looks like a basketball player a little bit. 585 00:23:58,800 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 5: He does. 586 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: And he you know, he called Kyle Hamilton the Avatar 587 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: this week. I mean Jadavion Clowney could very much have 588 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: the same name. Yeah, he's in the same avatar. 589 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 2: Fan. 590 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 5: How many avatar movies are this? This's get James Cameron 591 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 5: on the horn. There's gonna be another. It's another sequel 592 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 5: with Clowney and Kyle Hamilton. 593 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 3: Seriously, he could be ran in there. 594 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: So it is interesting how he's kind of reinvented himself 595 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: a little bit as a player too. You know, physically, 596 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: he's just a later dude, and he's he's got to 597 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: be different than he was back in those game Cock days. 598 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought that was that was interesting. I thought 599 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 5: it was a really interesting point from him. And you know, 600 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 5: I think that in talking to him, it certainly feels 601 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 5: like he he feels like, you know, the career probably 602 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,479 Speaker 5: hasn't gone to the level of that he expected it 603 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 5: to go in terms of production. But he's playing. He's 604 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 5: played for ten years, he's done all these one year deals, 605 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 5: He's made a ton of money early big. 606 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 3: Years and he's had good Yeah, been up and down. 607 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 5: He's been up and down, and the injuries have been 608 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 5: a challenge. But there's no doubt that he is uh, 609 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 5: he's dynamic. 610 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he can, like I said, he can be 611 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 3: a game and he puts it all together. 612 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: He's had really successful years and I thin think that 613 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: he feels like he can do that here, his role, 614 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 1: his health, you know again knock on wood. You know that, 615 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 1: like the coaching staff, all all those factors that like 616 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: he can put it all together this year. 617 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 5: I mean early indications are that's the case. 618 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 2: Yep. 619 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 5: And and I think he would love to put it 620 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 5: together on Sunday against the Browns. 621 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 1: Absolutely, Yeah, let's talk about that game. I mean, this 622 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: is a big game two two on one teams. The 623 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 1: Ravens obviously coming off of a frustrating loss to the Colts. 624 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 1: The Browns are are looking really good, coming off a 625 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: big win against the Tennessee Titans. 626 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 3: I mean their defense is. 627 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:40,479 Speaker 1: Ranked number one really in every metric, defensive metric right 628 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: now in points allowed, in total yards allowed. 629 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 3: It's not even close. 630 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: I mean, you got like ninety yards per game ahead 631 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: of the next closest team in yards per game allowed, 632 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 1: red zone defense, pass defense, the number two in rush defense. 633 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:58,239 Speaker 1: It's it's impressive. Now, I don't think the Ravens are 634 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: gonna cowtow to that. You know, They're not going to 635 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: just sit there and be like, oh, you know you 636 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: got the best. Roquan Smith made that very clear, and 637 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: so I think there is an element to this game 638 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: of like the Ravens are going into this thinking, all right, 639 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna see who has the better defense. You know, 640 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 1: we're facing their offense, so they're not studying the Browns 641 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: defensive tape. They're studying the Shaun Watson the offense, but. 642 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 5: You're talking about the Ravens defense. Once the Ravens defense 643 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 5: on that to prove against the Browns. 644 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: I definitely sense that chip on their shoulder to say, 645 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: all right, who's everybody's talking about how great they are 646 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: and the number one defense, who's the better defense? 647 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 5: Let's see Well, I mean Rokwan made this point. It's 648 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 5: through three weeks of the season, which is like an 649 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 5: obvious point. And the funny thing is like, if the 650 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 5: Ravens were the number one defense through right now, they'd 651 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 5: also be saying it's only three weeks of the season, 652 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 5: and so that's that's just a reality other thing. 653 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 1: And you know, you give the Browns props like they've 654 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 1: done it the first three games, like it's been good, 655 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: you know, but like it's a long way to go 656 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: and a lot of proving to do over the course 657 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: of the season. 658 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 5: Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, look, Miles Garrett is one of 659 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 5: the best players in the league, has been for he 660 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 5: has been He's got a massive contract, he's one of 661 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 5: the most dynamic players, another number one overall pick, you know, 662 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 5: so he's he's a great player. So he is gonna 663 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 5: be a he's gonna be a challenge and talk about 664 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 5: moving him around like they move him all around the 665 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 5: defense too. So the Raves offensive line is going to 666 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 5: have its work cut out for them in terms of 667 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 5: figuring out where they end up putting Miles Garrett on 668 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 5: that defensive line. 669 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure you've seen the clip of him jogging from 670 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: one end of the of the line to the other 671 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: and the tight ends, the Tennessee tight ends. 672 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 3: Following him and then they got to delay a game, right. 673 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 5: I've also seen the clip and him doing his working 674 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 5: on his basketball moves right over the center and then 675 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 5: you know, flowing through into the back backfield. 676 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: Ask John says it about that, He kind of laughs, 677 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: he said he saw that. He I said, so what 678 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 1: do you do about that? And he said, don't let 679 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 1: him cross you over? 680 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, hit him. Yeah yeah, that's the different thing. 681 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 5: The thing in basketball you can't hit him, you know exactly, 682 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 5: football you have that option, so you can try that. 683 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 5: But no, he's gonna he's gonna be a challenge. Like 684 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 5: I think, I do think it, Like maybe there's a 685 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 5: little bit too bitch being made about like the defensive 686 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 5: ranking at this point. You know, it's it's week three, 687 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 5: We've been through three games, So I'm with the Ravens 688 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 5: on that and that, like let's see where this thing 689 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 5: plays out. But with that said, like I think that 690 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 5: their defense is great. And it's also crazy, like it's 691 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 5: crazy how much things change week to week in the NFL. 692 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 5: Like a week ago, the Rams are two and oh 693 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 5: and they're coming off the big win in Cincinnati. The 694 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 5: Browns had just lost to the Steelers, they just lost 695 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 5: Nick Chubb, and it's like, you know, everyone in Cleveland 696 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 5: is saying, like, man, this team is going to be 697 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 5: in for a long year. And then and now all 698 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 5: of a sudden, both teams are two and one, and 699 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 5: it's like, all right, this is a massive game. It's 700 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 5: maybe one of the best games of in the NFL 701 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 5: this weekend. 702 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, with the Bengals at one and two and Burrough's 703 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 1: still dealing with the calf, it's kind of like, all right, 704 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: is Ravens Browns? Is this going to decide the division? 705 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: Or these are two division leaders, right, you know? And 706 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: so this is gonna be an early indication of kind 707 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: of the pecking order a little bit in the AFC North. 708 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: And we'll still have a long ways to go. But 709 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: it's a big game. There's no say or buts about it. 710 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 5: Especially when you consider what's on the horizon, which is 711 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 5: at Steelers next week. I think you got to play 712 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 5: the Titans in London. It's it's tough sledding here. So 713 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 5: it's massive, yep, uh, you know. 714 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 1: And I think the Ravens offense too, obviously has a 715 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 1: lot to prove. 716 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 3: They're coming off of. 717 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: You know, you have kind of a frustrating, rusty game 718 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: and week one, you have a great game in Week 719 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: two against Bigals, then you come back and it's another 720 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 1: slog against Indy, so they also have something to prove 721 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: against this top Browns defense and and just kind of 722 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: getting on the same page and you're you're now hopefully 723 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: getting some pieces back. 724 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. 725 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 1: So on the offensive line, Ronnie Stanley tile Linbaum returned 726 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: to practice on Wednesday, both limited, So we'll see. We're 727 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: not sure yet, but hopefully they progress through the week 728 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: and and get those guys back. 729 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 3: That would be a big deal. 730 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 1: But you know, the Ravens offense has a lot to 731 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 1: prove as they kind of continue to grow and work 732 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: out the kinks in year one under Tod Yeah. 733 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 5: Mark Andrews said this week, like there's still kind of 734 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 5: a feeling out of what this offense is going to be, 735 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 5: Like the identity is still being formed a little bit, 736 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 5: and I think that we're seeing that happen now. You know, 737 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 5: look if if if the Ravens find a way to 738 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 5: win that game, they get ten more yards, if that 739 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 5: pass interference gets called, if the sixty one yarder from 740 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 5: Justin Tucker falls, Like, I don't think we're having identity 741 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 5: crisis issues, you know, talking about the offense this week, 742 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 5: I think it's a much different conversation. I think the 743 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 5: conversation is like, you know, the Ravens are one of 744 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 5: the best teams in the league, and now they're going 745 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 5: to go up against the Browns. I think that that's 746 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 5: that's the conversation. So but but those those issues that 747 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 5: you've seen still would exist either way, and so you know, 748 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 5: I think that I think there's they're still kind of 749 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 5: figuring it out. They've had some major injuries on offense too. 750 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 5: Ronnie Linderbaum obj it isn't played. They were down to 751 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 5: their fourth and fifth running back last week. 752 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 2: Yep. 753 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 5: So like all that stuff has had a pretty significant impact. 754 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 5: And I think that I'm still really high on this 755 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 5: offense in the direction that it's going at Todd Monk, 756 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 5: and I think that there's been there's it's I like 757 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:00,959 Speaker 5: this offense. I've really good about it. 758 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it as I always say. Look, injuries 759 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: aren't an excuse, but there's certainly an explanation for some 760 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: of the troubles that the Ravens have been having. There's 761 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: you know, when you have two backup offensive linemen and 762 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: you're like you said, fourth and fifth running backs, it's 763 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: just not the same. It's just not that's that's a 764 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: fact huh, right, and Bateman was struggling with an injury 765 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 1: later that game, when you're already without Odellingham Junior, Like, 766 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: you know, nobody's making excuses, but like those things matter, right, 767 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: And so Gus Edwards, you know he practiced on Wednesday too. 768 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 3: I think that would make. 769 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 5: A full participant as a full participant, right, So John Harbaugh, 770 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 5: you know, the question is kind of like is he 771 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 5: still on the concussion protocols? Because always weird it's like 772 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 5: is a guy and is he out? And John Harball 773 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 5: was like, well, basically if he was in concussion protocol, 774 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 5: he wouldn't be out there, right, So that's a positive 775 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:49,719 Speaker 5: sign about his status. 776 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. So I think that would be a 777 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 3: big deal. 778 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: Which Usin Hill hasn't returned yet with his foot, but 779 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: I think getting Gus. 780 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 3: Back out there would be a really big deal. 781 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: And so I think that this this game in Cleveland, Yeah, 782 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 1: I mean it's gonna be a slug fest, There's no 783 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: doubt about it. I think with these two defenses, is 784 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: it a race to seventeen and are scoring? I mean 785 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: it certainly could be. 786 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it could be. But I also, like 787 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 5: I just said, I like this offense, and so maybe 788 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 5: this is the week where it's like the offense starts 789 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 5: to put it together a little bit more and then 790 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 5: we're all saying what we were two weeks ago, which 791 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 5: is like, man, this team is great. This you know, 792 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 5: tough road to win. 793 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 2: Right. 794 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: Who expected the Dallas Cowboys to get beat by Theirs 795 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: and the Cardinals and the Cardinals be running up and 796 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: down the. 797 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 3: Field against that defense, right nobody? 798 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 5: So it's early. 799 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 3: Yes, it's every week. 800 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 5: To week and I and I like this offense's ability. 801 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 5: So yeah, And like when you think about games that 802 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 5: they've played at Cleveland in recent years.
