It is Sunday, 0:00:06.000 --> 0:00:08.640 November third, and the Ravens took down the Denver Broncos 0:00:08.840 --> 0:00:11.760 forty one to ten. After the game, we heard from 0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:14.000 the coaches and the players. So let's kick it off 0:00:14.040 --> 0:00:14.840 with coach Harball. 0:00:17.200 --> 0:00:20.599 Okay, great to see everybody. Appreciate you being here. Really 0:00:20.640 --> 0:00:24.040 important mid season game at home. Crowd was into it. 0:00:24.160 --> 0:00:27.520 We appreciate that. Love our crowd, love our fans. Guys 0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:31.520 got ready to play and played our best complete game 0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:33.480 of the season so far, I would say as a team, 0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:35.680 and I'm proud of the guys for that. Guys like 0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:38.320 Derek Henry Lamar Jackson. Our defense stepped up and played 0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:41.360 really well. We had the situation at the end of 0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:43.320 the at the end after the first drive we got 0:00:43.360 --> 0:00:45.760 the turnover, got backed up with a sack punting him 0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:48.640 down to the two yard linet ended up getting the 0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:51.440 stop and ended up scoring seven straight times after that. 0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:54.680 So really proud of the guys for the way they played. 0:00:55.040 --> 0:00:57.680 We have turned our attention already at Cincinnati, talking about 0:00:57.680 --> 0:00:59.760 in the locker room already. We're playing Thursday night. We're 0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:02.320 gonna have to be at our best in that game. Okay, 0:01:02.400 --> 0:01:04.840 what question? Do you have another. 0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:08.920 Perfect passer rating day for for Lamar? I'm guessing as 0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:10.800 many rest days as he wants now go for. 0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:16.440 Yeah, Lamar played really good. He uh fourth. I think 0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:18.800 it's his fourth perfect passer rating and I think that's 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:23.360 an NFL record. Is it tied for the NFL record? Okay, 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:26.280 I'm betting on Lamar at some point to break it. 0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:29.240 But I thought he played great. But also the team 0:01:29.280 --> 0:01:31.200 around him, I mean the pass protects. That's a really 0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:34.280 good pass rush team of real aggressive defense, a really 0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:37.479 highly ranked defense. Our offense came to play as a group. 0:01:38.400 --> 0:01:41.679 How is he able to do that when like one practice? 0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:45.720 Lamar? He I think we talked about preparing all week, 0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:47.240 you know, and he did a great job with it. 0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:51.080 Mom with me, what do you make of man? 0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:54.120 I'd like to be Lamar right now. That would be amazing. 0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:56.880 I always I always joke with the guys. I got 0:01:56.920 --> 0:01:58.360 joke of Lamar. Man, what's it like to be able 0:01:58.400 --> 0:01:59.480 to throw a ball like that? 0:01:59.600 --> 0:01:59.720 Man? 0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:01.160 If I throw a ball like that would be the 0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:03.120 greatest lead to or I say to guys, what's it 0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:05.559 like to be six foot six three? Hundred and forty 0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:09.440 pounds of just you know, massive humanity knocking people off 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:10.720 the ball. I would love to be able to do that. 0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:12.520 Can you imagine being that big and walking in the bar? 0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:14.240 Can you imagine what that'd be like? 0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:17.560 I would. 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:20.080 I'd love to be Zay Flowers. Can you imagine you're 0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:21.080 a catch and run like that? 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:22.480 Be that quick? 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:25.280 I can't even imagine what that's like. What's your question? 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:29.600 It was really about Zay just his ability. You are 0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:33.080 always seen his ability after the catch, what he can 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:34.080 do with the ball in his hands. 0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:35.519 But today, yeah, obviously. 0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:38.160 Look like well that play at the end was end 0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:40.240 of the half. I mean that play was unbelievable play. 0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:41.880 I mean to throw on the protection, to throw the 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:44.959 catch in a little stop and stuttern. Sometimes I'll admit 0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:46.440 I'm telling him just go just get up field as 0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:48.480 me as you can, you know, but he's thinking of 0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:50.840 he's thinking about scoring every time. So that was just 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:52.119 a phenomenal football play. 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:52.680 John. 0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:54.600 I know you guys have been really good running the 0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:58.040 football for years now, But how does Derek in his 0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:01.119 ability to kind of close games of how you type 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:02.240 manager the offense? 0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:04.840 Yeah, it's it's a big thing. I mean, we have 0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:06.880 been really good to running the ball for a long time. 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:10.600 But he is different. I mean, Derrick Henry is different. 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:13.240 You know, he's adding a dimension that we have not 0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:17.800 had before. I don't know, you go back to Jamal 0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:21.760 Lewis maybe you know, maybe this is this is different, 0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:23.440 you know, and I'm excited about it. But you know what, 0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:25.600 so I acknowledge that we say that if I can 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:27.240 tell you he's sitting right here in the room. What 0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:29.079 he talked about to the team was Thursday night. We 0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:31.240 talked about Thursday Night's get ready to go Thursday night. 0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:35.880 His defense has kind of taken some hits over the 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:40.840 season publicly, but today they several times Denver got down inside. 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:42.520 Like ten fifteen yard line and could not score. 0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:45.160 What did you see that stood out on the defensive 0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:47.720 played today. I thought the red zone defense was amazing. 0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:49.400 I thought they did a great job in coverage. I 0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:51.400 thought our coverage did a great job the whole game. 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:53.920 He got you know, he's a really dangerous quarterback because 0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:55.640 you all saw him. He's really hard to get down 0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:59.000 in the pocket. He was running around doing some things. 0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:02.040 And I thought our pass rush did a really nice job, 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:04.760 especially in the red zone of not letting them run 0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:08.760 out of there and score scrambling. So yeah, kudos to 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:11.120 the defense, Kudos to that, kudos to all the coaches 0:04:11.560 --> 0:04:13.280 and the players. But you know what, Thursday night is 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:14.080 right around the corner. 0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:17.479 John, you mentioned help productive Denver has been as a 0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:19.359 pass rush team. Did you feel like this was a 0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:21.720 game where your offensive line kind of really found its 0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:23.800 footing again after a topper week last week. 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:27.320 I thought our offensive line really played well in this game, run, 0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:30.480 run blocking, and pass protection. It's a very good pass 0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:33.960 rushing group across the board. There was a challenge with 0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:35.880 the twists and the games and the picks that our 0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:38.880 interior guys had to handle, and the speed rush outside guys, 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:40.920 our tackles did a good job. Yeah, I thought they 0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:41.920 did a really good job. 0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:44.040 John, The D line and K was banged up all 0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:46.000 weeks and the guys missed practice. You got two games 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:46.520 in five days. 0:04:46.520 --> 0:04:47.680 How do you feel like they held up to that? 0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:50.320 They held up great. I mean, you know, obviously Medabeeks, 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:53.039 you know, he just he led the group, He led 0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:55.599 the charge. But then you had, you know, two guys 0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:57.920 up off the practice called Chris Wromley and Josh DePaul. 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:00.880 Those two guys, man, they stepped it up, and we 0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:02.960 we've always thought those were quality players, you know, really 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:05.560 good football players. So you know, hats off to those 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:08.760 guys as well. Broader Washington played very well, also, proud 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:10.000 of those guys. 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:12.479 Only had three rushing with them. So I think was 0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:14.800 this a game where intentionally. 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:18.000 The limit for whatever reasons, you know, we leave that. 0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:20.440 I personally leave it more to Lamar. I mean, Lamar 0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:22.680 knows what he's got to do and he makes great choices. 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:24.520 But he was standing in there and just throwing it. 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.159 I remember, I think I mentioned that one of the 0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:28.800 guys on the phone after second or third series, Lamar's 0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:30.840 on fire. He's on fire throwing the ball. He just 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:32.680 uh he he had a great game. 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:36.480 More for drump we saw the dB staying after this 0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:42.040 week just to practice the d the DB's practice to 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:45.200 just practice instead of around How key was it for 0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:49.560 Ardarius Washington to get that interception to open the game, especially. 0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:50.040 After week they had. 0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:52.159 Timing is everything in life, right, I mean, you know, 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:54.479 all the all the challenges we had catching them all 0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:57.040 the week before and other times in the season. Uh, 0:05:57.120 --> 0:05:58.840 to come out in the first series and catch one. 0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:02.280 That was that was pretty cool, you know. Uh uh, 0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:04.640 the Good Lord had her back. I said, I saw 0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:07.520 this before. Let him that glory, glory and God alone, 0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:09.440 I was. I was glorying God right there. I was 0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:11.400 glorying in God right there. I was thanking him for 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:13.200 that pick, you know, for the fact that we caught 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:15.920 that thing. So that was. That was a good start, John. 0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:18.160 A really good, big performance for a pair second year 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.440 defensive guys. And and Tavius and trenton just sweek. How 0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:23.520 important is it for them to develop, for you guys 0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:25.799 to accomplish your goals you want as a defense? 0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:27.200 Oh yeah, a big part of us. Some of those 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:29.520 two guys are huge. Trent had some really good coverage 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.560 plays and of course in the run defense. And then 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.880 Tavius had two sacks, I mean two big sacks. The 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:35.960 one big one in the second half was massive. 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:36.600 All right. 0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:39.839 Thanks. 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:42.320 Next up is quarterback Lamar Jackson. 0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:48.960 So so, Lamar one day of practice and a perfect passerway, 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:50.280 how how is that possible? 0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:50.520 Then? 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:51.400 Uh? 0:06:51.680 --> 0:06:54.160 Just I knew what the assignment was, you know, I 0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:58.320 definitely studied those guys getting on coach t and just 0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:00.800 putting an extrat just because I was not there, just 0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:04.359 watching practice and studying family on those guys that pretty 0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:07.760 much help.
