1 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: Welcome into the Lounge presented by DraftKings. I'm Ryan Mink 2 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 1: here with Garrett Downing, and we are going to give 3 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: you our instant reaction to the Ravens nine Pro bowlers 4 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: in this year's roster, as well as talk about the 5 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,959 Speaker 1: upcoming regular season finale against the Cleveland Browns and what 6 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: you should be watching for in that game. So breaking 7 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: news this morning, Garrett, with the Pro Bowl rosters announced, 8 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: and the Ravens have the most in the league with nine. 9 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,279 Speaker 1: They have more than they had last year when they 10 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,879 Speaker 1: had a first round playoff by and this is the 11 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 1: most that they've had since twenty nineteen when they had thirteen, 12 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 1: which is just crazy. But nine Pro bowlers, the Ravens 13 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 1: are very well represented. 14 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll run to the list right here, and these 15 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 2: guys are all very deserving. Safety Kyle Hamilton, wide receiver's 16 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 2: Day Flowers who gets his first Pro Bowl invitation and 17 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 2: becomes the first player first receiver in franchise history to 18 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 2: make it to the Pro Bowl. At the receiver position, 19 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 2: you have cornerback Marlin Humphrey back in the Pro Bowl. 20 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 2: Defensive tackle Non dem Atabike, center Tyler Linderbaum, full back 21 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 2: Patrick Riccard, running back, Derek Henry, quarterback Lamar Jackson. I 22 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 2: think he was going to get in, and linebacker brook 23 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 2: want Smith. So there's your nine right there. 24 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's an impressive list. No surprise is 25 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: really on there. As you said, I think all really 26 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: well deserving. I think that the big the headline news 27 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: other than the Rave, the fact that the Ravens have 28 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 1: the most in the league is Zay Flowers. You know, 29 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: first time, as you said, the first time the Ravens 30 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: have a Pro Bowl wide receiver, and it's just awesome 31 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: for him. I mean, I think that this really proves that, hey, yeah, 32 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: he's one of the best in the league, and the 33 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: Ravens curses over, you know, never drafting one, and you know, 34 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: Zay's just in his second year, and I think this 35 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: is establishes him as one of the top guys in 36 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: the league and he could go for two more Pro 37 00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: Bowls for years to come. 38 00:01:58,720 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think this was huge. 39 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: If you haven't checked it out already, we posted a 40 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: video of the moment that Jay Flowers found out he 41 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 2: was a Pro Bowler and Eric Acosta called him to 42 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 2: his office, didn't tell him what he wanted to talk 43 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: to him about I just said I need to see 44 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 2: you in my office, which you could tell in Zay's 45 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 2: face when he first walked in, They're like, what am 46 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 2: I walking into? 47 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 3: And then Eric showed the good news with things. 48 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 1: Like it's too early for an extension, what's going on here? 49 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: He's even said he's like, I thought I was in trouble. 50 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: He can called it the principal's office, and so he 51 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 2: walks in there and he gets the news, and you 52 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 2: could tell in watching the video. I mean, go watch 53 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 2: it if you haven't already, but you can tell that 54 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 2: it means a lot to Zay and you can tell 55 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 2: it means a lot to Eric. And whenever, like from 56 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: Eric's perspective, whenever you draft somebody, you're you're taking a 57 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 2: chance and you're voting that. 58 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 3: That guy is going to be successful. 59 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 2: And there's a lot of factors that can that play 60 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 2: into whether a player pans out. 61 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 3: And for it to go as well. 62 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 2: As it has for Zay in his first two years 63 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: is obviously a testament to Zay and his ability and 64 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: the player and makeup and all this stuff. But of course, 65 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 2: as a GM like you're going to feel a sense 66 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 2: of pride of making that pick and seeing it coming 67 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 2: fruition like this, Like this is what you hope for 68 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 2: when when you draft say Flowers out of Boston College, 69 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 2: you're hopeful that maybe this guy one day will be 70 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 2: a pro bowler. 71 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: I mean Eric Tacosta said as soon as he laid 72 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: eyes on Zay Flowers in the pre draft process, he 73 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: knew that this guy was going to be a pro bowler. 74 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: And you know, Zay was part of that run of 75 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: four straight wide receivers drafted in last year's draft. Ye, 76 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 1: and he's the only one that's gone to a Pro 77 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: Bowl so far. Jackson Smith and Jigbo was the other, 78 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: Quentin Johnson of the Chargers and then Jordan Addison. So 79 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: bravo to Zay Flowers and bravo to the Ravens. You know, 80 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: Ravens fans have been waiting for this day for a 81 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: long time to say we got we have a Pro 82 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: Bowl wide receiver. And you know, I think for Zay, 83 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: he we all saw the town immediately last year. I 84 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: mean he got she sent set the Ravens franchise rookie 85 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: record for receiving yards. So he already had a great 86 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: season last year, and I think what helped him get 87 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: over a thousand yards for the first time and helped 88 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: him get into the Pro Bowl. Was you know, more 89 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: familiarity with in this offense, the next evolution of Todd 90 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: Mounkins offense, in the passing, the passing game. Of course, 91 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: Lamar having a fantastic season, you know, especially throwing the ball, 92 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: all those things. I don't know that Zay hasn't necessarily 93 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: and his game have changed all that much. Of course, 94 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: he became a better pro and all those things that 95 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: just come with time. But you know, gosh, the talent 96 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: is just there, and I think the pieces all around 97 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: him and he has risen to the occasion and all 98 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: that's come together to make for a special season. 99 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 3: What stands out to me about Zay and making the Pro. 100 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 2: Bowl here is I think that it was very evident 101 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 2: from the time he arrived in Baltimore that there was 102 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 2: an appreciation amongst his teammates of how good he was, Like. 103 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, I see his viillity to stop on a time. 104 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 1: I mean, he is just incredibly shifty. That was apparent 105 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: immediately he just gets open. 106 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 2: And then like the next level of that as a 107 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 2: rookie was when they had those joint practices against Washington, 108 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 2: and he was open the entirety of those two days beforectice. 109 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,799 Speaker 2: Nobody could cover him, and then it just continues from there. 110 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 2: But I think that there's just great respect and admiration 111 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 2: amongst other players, and I think that so Jay was. 112 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 2: He finished tenth in the fan voting, but the Pro 113 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 2: Bowl voting is consisted of three parts. His fan votes, 114 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 2: it's player votes and coach votes, and I would venture 115 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 2: to guest that Zay did very well on the player 116 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: vote portion of this because other players look at him 117 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 2: in his game and they know how tough he is 118 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 2: to cover. 119 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 3: Like immediately when he. 120 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 2: Got here, veteran players were talking about how tough he 121 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 2: was to cover, like Marlon Humphrey and guys that had 122 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,799 Speaker 2: to go up there and cover him, like this guy. 123 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 3: Is hard to cover. 124 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: He is tough, and he's only gotten that's only as 125 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 2: he's developed more and understanding of the offense and the 126 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,679 Speaker 2: field in the chemistry with Lamar Jackson, that's only become 127 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 2: more difficult to stop. And it's been great to see. 128 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,679 Speaker 2: So it was a big moment for him and I'm 129 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 2: happy for him, and I'm happy for Eric ta Costa 130 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: as well. 131 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: I think it's pretty cool. Also, another key part of 132 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 1: Zay's game has been durability, and he hasn't missed the 133 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: game yet in his career due to injury. Knock on wood. 134 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: And you know, availability, especially for a guy his size, 135 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: you know, that's that's certainly notable. He's been a dependable 136 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: game in game out receiver for this team. 137 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 2: He the way people will always talk about Lamar Jackson 138 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 2: and his ability to avoid big hits, like Lamar's as 139 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 2: good as anybody I've ever seen at that. I think 140 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 2: Zay has some of those same characteristics as well. 141 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree. And then we also had the 142 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: video of Derrick Henry finding out that he's a Pro bowler. 143 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: Not as emotional of a reaction, He's like, cool, Yeah, 144 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: I bet let's go, you know, And this is Derrick 145 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 1: Henry's fifth fifth Pro Bowl. So and obviously, you know, 146 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: you finish head and shoulders, you know, in the most 147 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: rushing yards in the AFC, second most in the league 148 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: behind Saquon Barkley. You have a pretty good idea you're 149 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: going in the Pro Bowl. 150 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 2: But I meana, Derek Henry is probably going to maybe 151 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 2: be a Hall of Famer with his career is all 152 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 2: said exactly. He knows what it feels like to get 153 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 2: to a Pro Bowl. He's the difference when you're making 154 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 2: your fifth verst your first. 155 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, but you know, different team, same result. And 156 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: for him to have he has the most second most 157 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: rush yards of his career now at thirty years old, 158 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: you know that certainly his point this offseason when the 159 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: Ravens signed him that yeah, yeah, teams think I might 160 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: be losing a step. You know that I don't have 161 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: too much left. He's proven his point about how much 162 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: gas he has left in the tank. So you know, 163 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: bravo to him. 164 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 2: I think that when the Ravens signed Derek Henry it 165 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 2: could not have gone any better than he hass this year. 166 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 3: And he's he's two hundred and seventeen yards away from 167 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 3: two thousand. 168 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 2: I don't that'd be a big number to finish the 169 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 2: regular season off with it with that kind of a day. 170 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: I wouldn't necessarily expect that, but he is, like, he's 171 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 2: putting up historic type numbers and for him to have 172 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 2: this kind of success, it just could not have gone 173 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 2: any better. And he's answered all the questions about whether 174 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 2: you can succeed past thirty and whether you can do 175 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 2: it in a new offense and all this stuff, like 176 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 2: he has been everything in more than the Ravens envisioned 177 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: and for him to switch teams have the same result 178 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 2: be just as productive. Man, I think that there's there's 179 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 2: a lot that says a lot about him. 180 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, sticking on the offensive side of the ball. Lamar Jackson, 181 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: it's his fourth Pro Bowl and he was one of 182 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: three quarterbacks. They take three quarterbacks him, Josh Allen is 183 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: the starter, and Joe Burrow. Patrick Mahomes did not make 184 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl for the first time in his career 185 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: since he took over as a starter. 186 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, if you look at the stats, like Mahomes 187 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 2: has the ranks, of course, but you look at the 188 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 2: stats between those four guys and Mahomes sorry, Burrow, Allen, 189 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 2: and Lamar, they all have better stats. 190 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, and I think that's I think that's the 191 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: right vote. I think that's you know, Mahomes. Of course, 192 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 1: his magic in the postseason, we'll see, you know, he's 193 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,559 Speaker 1: gonna be a tough out whoever plays him. But yeah, 194 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: those guys have had better regular seasons than Patrick Mahomes. 195 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: There's no doubt about it. I mean, Josh Allen might 196 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: win m VP here he and Lamar are jockeying for that, 197 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: and then Joe Burrow leads the league in passing yards. 198 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: You know, how can you take it away from him? 199 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: So I think that's the right, right vote. 200 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's tough, like those four quarterbacks. 201 00:08:58,360 --> 00:08:58,599 Speaker 1: It is. 202 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 2: The Chiefs obviously have the number one seed and Patrick 203 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 2: Mahomes's guide to that that team to that spot. So 204 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 2: it's like hard to take him out, especially when he's 205 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 2: had the success. But when you just look at pure numbers, 206 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 2: the other three have better numbers, so it's not necessarily 207 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 2: a surprise from a pure stats standard. 208 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: Well that's also kind of just to go back to 209 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: wide receiver. It's hard to make it as a purple 210 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: wide receiver because there's just so many really great wide 211 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: receivers in the league these days, you know, I mean 212 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: you look at the four wide receivers he made it, 213 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase, Jerry Judy, Nico Collins, and Zey. You know, 214 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill's not on that list. DeVante Adams isn't on 215 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: that list. Like some of these guys that have been 216 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: big time playmakers for many years. It's kind of the 217 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: new the new guard. 218 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, like the mainstays to Iyreka and DeVante Adams have 219 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 2: been basically pencil him in. 220 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: They're going to be in there, exactly exactly. It's the 221 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: it's the new guard at wide receiver in the AFC. 222 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: Which is really not to say the Tyree Kors DeVante 223 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: Adams couldn't be right back in next year, but like, hey, 224 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: these are these are the young up and comers that 225 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: are proving themselves at wide receiver in AFC. 226 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, mother, young up and comers who are establishing themselves. 227 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 2: Are the guys who are the second year in the 228 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: Pro Bowl for the Ravens, and that would be Tyler 229 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 2: Lennardbaum and Kyle Hamilton. They they're now to me entering 230 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 2: into that category of you just are gonna expect those 231 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 2: two guys to be in the Pro Bowl every year. 232 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 3: They're that good. 233 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: Two Pro Bowls in your first three years for both 234 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: those guys, both first round picks for Eric Tacosta. Again, 235 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,439 Speaker 1: round of applause for Eric Tacosta. You hit Zay Flowers's 236 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: first pick round pick two years ago. And then gosh, 237 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: that Hamilton Linderbaum draft classes looking pretty darn nice too, that's. 238 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 2: Really driving the team on both sides of the ball 239 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 2: in a lot of ways. 240 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 3: To have two Pro bowlers in. 241 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 2: The same draft at the top of the draft, that is, 242 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 2: that's that's hard to do. 243 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: Absolutely. Plus you have nom the Madam Gay third round 244 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: pick of Eric Costa's traded for Rokwan Smith, pro bowler 245 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 1: every year since he's been to raven now and on, 246 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 1: and signed Derek Henry in the off season. Yeah. Yeah, 247 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: pretty darn good, Pretty darn good. 248 00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think I think Hamilton and lindenbomb just 249 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 2: to focus on them for a second, like, I just 250 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 2: think that they are they're going to be in that 251 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 2: position where whenever there's you have the primetime game next 252 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 2: year it's Week four and they're on Sunday Night Football, 253 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 2: you do the ninety seconds Chris collins Worth talk about 254 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 2: Kyle Hamilton and how great he is and how he 255 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 2: does all these different things and how he's one of 256 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 2: the best players in the league, and the same thing 257 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 2: on the offensive side of the ball as well. 258 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 3: With Tyler Lindbaum. 259 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 2: You just say, the Ravens offense is great, and Tyler 260 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 2: Linnerbaum is a driver of the ship on this offensive line. 261 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 2: He's been a great player, first round pick, two time 262 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 2: Pro Bowler. He's going to be a guy that is 263 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 2: just a perennial both of them. I think both of them. 264 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 2: You're looking at multiple Pro Bowls in a row for them, 265 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 2: You already are looking at too straight for them, and 266 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 2: so I think that get used to seeing them with 267 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 2: Pro Bowl you know, notches next to their name. 268 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: Yep, Kyle Holton is the NFL's only defensive back to 269 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: post at least one hundred tackles, an interception, two sex 270 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 1: and two forced fumbles. So mister do it all? Yeah, 271 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: he did in the secondary. And I think that both 272 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: guys also proves something else this year. I don't want 273 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: to just say, like another great year for them. They 274 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: proved something new and Kyle Helents improves he can play 275 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: deep safety and go back to a more of a 276 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 1: traditional kind of safety role and has the range and 277 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: has the coverage ability to do that. It's not just 278 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: like I'm gonna be a big hitter in the box 279 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: and all those things. Like he proves something new this year. 280 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: And I think Tyler Linnenbaum also in the fact that 281 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 1: the Ravens had three new starters along that offensive line. 282 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 1: Both guard spots on either side of him, and Tyler 283 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: Linnenbaum was the glue. He was the anchor of that group. 284 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: And so I think that he really proved himself in 285 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: that way as from a leadership role in just his 286 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: third season. 287 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 2: When Eric DeCosta talked about Tyler making it, he referred 288 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 2: to him as a blue guy yep. And that's a 289 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 2: pretty good description of what he does and what he 290 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 2: means to this offense and offensive lineman as you know, 291 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 2: like they don't get a ton of praise and it's 292 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 2: hard to totally assess offensive line play, but Tyler jumps 293 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 2: off his ability. 294 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 3: His versatility is an off like he does a couple 295 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 3: of things. 296 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 2: He does most things well, but he knows everything that's 297 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 2: happening in front of him, such a smart player. But 298 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 2: then he has his versatility where he can get out 299 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 2: in space and he can pull and he can do 300 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 2: different things as an offensive lineman. That gives the Ravens 301 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 2: and Todd Monkins some creativity and how they're scheming things up, 302 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,079 Speaker 2: especially from a run game standpoint, are so good at. 303 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: That on the screens and all that stuff. 304 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 2: These toss plays, like you there's all these different highlights 305 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 2: where you see Tyler Linderbomble. 306 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 3: So you're like, wait, why is he fifteen yards down 307 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 3: the field. 308 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: Right, There's not a whole lot of centers that you're 309 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: pooling right and that are are down the field picking 310 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: off linebackers and stuff. You know that's not easy. 311 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 2: But his athleticism and his just he's so technical, technically sound, 312 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 2: all of that is has made him a great player, 313 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 2: So props to him. 314 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 1: You look those two guys too, two Pro Bowls in 315 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: the first three years. They are going to get paid. 316 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,079 Speaker 1: You think about who are going to get the big 317 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: next big extensions from the Ravens, the nine figure kind 318 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: of extensions, It's gonna be those guys. 319 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 320 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 2: I think those are corner some pieces they have for 321 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 2: this team. Again, first round picks, multi time Pro Bowlers, 322 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 2: They're going to be cornerstones of the offensive defense moving forward. 323 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: Yep. Absolutely. And then another mainstay, pat Ricard. Project Pat 324 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: is no project any longer. 325 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 2: This guy just makes the Probole every year as a 326 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 2: pullback just pencil a man, he's gonna be ye like, 327 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 2: He's just gonna go pretty much every year deservingly. 328 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 3: So he's him and him and. 329 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 2: Kyle Yuschek also drafted by the Ravens of course, Like 330 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: those are the best two fullbacks in the game. 331 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: Kyle Uschik has the most Pro Bowls of any fullback 332 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: in NFL history. 333 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, project Pat for the both guys are deserving and uh, 334 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 2: football fullbacks are bred here in Baltimore, and it's awesome 335 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 2: for Pat to make it again. 336 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: Well, I think it's I think it's cool for him. 337 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: You know, obviously paved the way for Derrick Henry's amazing season. 338 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: The Ravens had the top rushing attack in the league, 339 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: well in terms of the yards per carry. Uh. And 340 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: I think what it's cool for Pat is like this, 341 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: he's being entrenched as one of the best fullbacks ever. Yeah, 342 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: to play in the NFL, which is quite an accomplishment 343 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: for an undrafted guy out of Maine who is a 344 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: defensive lineman. Yeah, pretty cool. 345 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 2: I also think for if you go back two years 346 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 2: ago when Todd Munkin comes in and the question is like, 347 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 2: is there gonna be a. 348 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 3: Role for Pad? Are they going to use a full back? 349 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 2: Is he even going to be on the team, And 350 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 2: even at that point, like we had him on the 351 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 2: podcast and he was pretty open about this, he was 352 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 2: coming off pretty major hip surgery, and he was he 353 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 2: dabbled at guard a little bit in practice and should 354 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 2: I make the transition offensive line? 355 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 3: And how's this going to go? 356 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 2: And and all of a sudden, now you flash forward 357 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 2: to this point and he's made the Pro Bowl in 358 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 2: two straight years. The rushing attack is dominant and he's 359 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 2: a huge piece of that. He's the driver of it 360 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 2: as the lead blocker in front of Derrick Henry. And 361 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 2: for him to make another Pro Bowl is really special 362 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 2: to him, and I think that it further solidifies his 363 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 2: cases as one of the best to ever do it. 364 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: Then the final two guys will talk about nom the 365 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: Matabik and Rokwan Smith on defense, and you know, nom 366 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: the it's his second straight year reaching the Pro Bowl. 367 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: And you know, his production hasn't been what it was 368 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: last year he had thirteen sacks, finished the year with 369 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: thirteen sacks last season, has six and a half this year. 370 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: But I think that this is a nod that players 371 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: and coaches around the league know the kind of player 372 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: that the Madabik is. No. 373 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 3: I mean, he's he's disruptive. 374 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 2: I know the sack total isn't there when you watch 375 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 2: the games he's disruptive. If he gets in the backfield, 376 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 2: he makes tackles for loss. In the running game, he's 377 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 2: still a really productive player and he opens things up 378 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 2: for those other guys. So Kyle van noy I know, 379 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 2: we'll probably mention snubs, like Kyle van Noi would fall 380 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 2: into the snub category. But he's got eleven and a 381 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 2: half snacks. 382 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: Snacks sacks. It's a good amount of snacks. 383 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 2: So he's got eleven and a half sacks, and Adafejoway 384 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 2: is knocking on the door of the double digits right now. 385 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 3: Part of that, of course, they're successful in their run right. 386 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 2: Part of it also is that Mattabeke is attracting more attention. 387 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 2: And when we had Mattabik on the pod, he was 388 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 2: pretty open about the fact that it was a little 389 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 2: bit eye opening for him this year to realize all 390 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 2: the extra attention that he was getting from other teams. 391 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 2: And you say that, you think that's going to be 392 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 2: the case, but then when you get into games you're 393 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 2: getting double team to sometimes even triple teams, it's harder 394 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 2: to handle and to deal with that, and so I 395 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 2: think that was a struggle on him a little bit mentally. 396 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 2: And also just physically within those games to handle all 397 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 2: that extra attention. But I do think that he opens 398 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 2: up other things around him, and I think it's he's 399 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 2: been although the sack number isn't there from a year ago, 400 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 2: he's been incredibly productive this year. 401 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 3: And the Pro Bowl vote is a nod to. 402 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: Yep, yep, completely agree. And then lastly Roquan Smith. 403 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 2: And we have two more. Actually you're forgetting. There's Roquan 404 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 2: and Marlin. 405 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 1: Oh I'm sorry, Yes, you're right. Roquan Smith a starter, 406 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,439 Speaker 1: you know again, leads a team in tackles, you know, 407 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: fifth in the NFL and tackles just a tackling machine. 408 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 1: Everybody recognizes the special player that Roquan is the leader 409 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: of this defense. And so he gets another nod. And 410 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: as I said, it's his third straight year ever since 411 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: he's been a Raven, he's been a Pro Bowler. So 412 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:51,239 Speaker 1: we got a good thing going there. 413 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, totally. 414 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 2: And then lastly is Marlon Humphrey who gets back in 415 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 2: the Pro Bowl this year. It's his fourth Pro Bowl 416 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 2: invitation and this one is I think probably pretty big 417 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 2: to Marlin. I know that he's made it multiple times. 418 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 2: So when you're a perennial pro bowler. It doesn't it's 419 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 2: not the same as your first time. But I think 420 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 2: that this was last year was a challenge for him. 421 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 2: It did not go the way that he wanted. He 422 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 2: was injured for basically the entire season, was never really himself, 423 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,239 Speaker 2: and then this offseason he committed himself in a lot 424 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 2: of different ways to getting back to the player that 425 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 2: he was and could be. And we've seen it, like 426 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 2: we've had the conversation here about why are we not 427 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 2: talking about him as a Defensive Player of the Year candidate. 428 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 2: He had so many big plays for this team, turned 429 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 2: games around, leads the AFC in interceptions plays, so physically 430 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 2: is the number two cover corner in the NFL according 431 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,959 Speaker 2: to Pro Football Focus. So he just he's it's been 432 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 2: the best season of his career, and I think that 433 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: it's I don't know where this team would be without him. 434 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 2: We actually got an email to us at the lounge 435 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 2: at Ravens NFL dot net, and this week we announced 436 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 2: the team MVP, which is voted on by the local media. 437 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 2: Lamarja was a team MVP. Big surprise there, But this 438 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,400 Speaker 2: email from Jordan Fitchett. He says, look guys, I want 439 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 2: to say, I'm not disagreeing with Lamar being the MVP 440 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 2: of the team, but he's because he's the greatest quarterback 441 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 2: in Rivers history. But I think you want to go 442 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 2: outside the box, it would be Marlon Humphrey. 443 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 3: All pro. Marlo. 444 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,479 Speaker 2: You need both hands to count the number of games 445 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 2: in terms of game changing plays and interceptions he's had 446 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 2: this year. Again, I know that Lamar Jackson is the 447 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 2: obvious pick, but I also think that Marlon Humphrey should 448 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 2: have some consideration there. So, like, Lamar's the MVP of 449 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 2: the team, of course, but I think that if you're 450 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 2: doing offensive and defensive, I think Marlon would be the 451 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 2: defensive MVP. 452 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, as good as as Kyle Hamilton has been in 453 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 1: Rokwan and those guys, I agree, Like you look at 454 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: the clutch plays for Marlon. I mean, obviously, the pick 455 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 1: six against Pittsburgh basically won the game. Late fourth quarter 456 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: interception against Joe Burrow and the Bengals set up overtime 457 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: in that game. And you know the two interceptions in 458 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay that game wasn't looking great for the Ravens 459 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 1: early on. Yeah, Marlon makes two picks and so big 460 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: time plays, big time plays for Marlin. 461 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I just think that he's he's back to 462 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 2: the player that he was prior to the injuries last year, 463 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,919 Speaker 2: and it's it's been great to see and as like 464 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 2: moving forward for this team, he's going to be a 465 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 2: huge player for this defense in the postseason, like he's. 466 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 3: When you have somebody who's playing at. 467 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 2: His level, who can be a shutdown corner, who can 468 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 2: also play inside and outside and has that versatility, it 469 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 2: just opens up things. And I think that his play 470 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 2: has really helped the turnaround and the resurgence of this 471 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 2: defense that's going on about six weeks now. 472 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,479 Speaker 1: One final point for me about this before we talk 473 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: about the snubs that you mentioned, is I think that 474 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: this shows, you know, more Pro Bowlers this year nine 475 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 1: than last year seven? Is this series team better? Like? 476 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 1: You know, we spent so much time wringing our hands 477 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 1: this offseason about all the talent lost on this team 478 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: via free agency and there was a lot a lot 479 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: of guys left and gosh, you come back and more 480 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: Pro Bowlers this year than last year? Like, is this 481 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: team more talented? Does it have more stars on it 482 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 1: than last year's squad? 483 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 3: That's a good question. I don't know. I think that. 484 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 2: It's pretty even, Like when you when you really break 485 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 2: it down and you look through the different the losses 486 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 2: from last year, and you look at where the Ravens 487 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 2: have made gains, and like look at Zay Flowers as 488 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 2: an example, same guy, but he's better this years, been 489 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 2: better as Marlin much. It's night and day, considering the 490 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 2: injuries last year. So I think that there's it's pretty 491 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 2: even when I really look at it. 492 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: Patrick Queen was one of the Pro Bowlers last year 493 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: that obviously is not on the team this year, right. 494 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 2: So obviously that's a big difference. But I think that 495 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 2: it's it's it's hard for me to say what I 496 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 2: what I do think with this team that I think 497 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 2: will serve them well in the postseason, Like they dealt 498 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 2: with some adverse as we know, they struggled at times 499 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 2: this year, dropped some games they didn't expect to lose, 500 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 2: had that tough game against Philly, and the defense struggled 501 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 2: earlier in the year, and so this team had to 502 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 2: kind of do some gut checks at different points of 503 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,479 Speaker 2: this season after tough games or tough losses, and so 504 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 2: they've been forged a little bit this year. Last year's 505 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 2: team was the number one seed and didn't even have 506 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 2: to play in Week eighteen because they had that thing 507 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,439 Speaker 2: locked up, and so that it was more of a 508 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 2: smooth ride, I guess for the last season, and as 509 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 2: a fan, it's nice to have a smooth ride. It's great, 510 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 2: But I also think that there is some benefit to 511 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 2: having gone through challenges. And I think that I don't 512 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 2: know if this was what you had in mind when, 513 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 2: like you asked the question. Like the comparison I think 514 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 2: is often made like the twenty eleven Ravens team versus 515 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 2: the twenty twelve team. The twenty eleven team, I think 516 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 2: we both agree was actually a better team, just pure 517 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 2: roster construction and the talent that that team had. But 518 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 2: the twenty twelve team, of course won the Super Bowl. 519 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,959 Speaker 2: Twenty eleven team did not. And I do think that 520 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 2: twenty twelve team was a little bit more forged from 521 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 2: the experience of the year before. 522 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and then they have switched offensive coordinators in the 523 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: middle of the year. 524 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 2: They had some challenges that year, and I think that 525 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 2: those challenges served them well once it got to really 526 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 2: tough situations in the playoffs, and they had tough situations 527 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 2: in those playoff games, and I think that, like all 528 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 2: the experiences of the two years leading up to that point, 529 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 2: I think benefited them. 530 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: So you're saying that's the case. So essentially, you're saying, 531 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 1: even if this year's team is not as talented as 532 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: last year's team, that you think this year seem could 533 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: go further. Potentially, I'm going to argue. I'm going to argue, 534 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: and I think that's that's a fair argument. I think 535 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: this team might be more talented than last year's I mean, okay, 536 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: you don't have Patrick Queen, but you got Derrick Henry. Yeah. 537 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: Has he made a big difference this year. That's that's 538 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: a big one, you know. And obviously, like we talked 539 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: about Zay being better and Marlin being better, how about 540 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson being better? The most important piece of this 541 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: being better, right, and so like and and I just 542 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 1: think year two and Todd Monkan's offense, the offense is 543 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: better that you know. The defense is where they lost 544 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 1: a lot of players, but now it's playing coaches and 545 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 1: coaches right, and now it's playing really well. 546 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 2: So like I think it might be there's a strong 547 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 2: case to be made for that, and I can't even 548 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 2: really argue, Like I honestly can't argue either way on that. 549 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:19,959 Speaker 2: I think that it's a pretty even look when you 550 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 2: when you really break down like all the nuance, different 551 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 2: elements of it. 552 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 3: Last year's team was awesome. 553 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 2: Like there's also a little bit of recency bias here, 554 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 2: like last year's team had the first round seed, and 555 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 2: like in. 556 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 1: This year's team had a tougher schedule than last year's 557 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: Sea he did, and this is I think that's part 558 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: of it. 559 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 2: Did drop the games. Two of them that they dropped 560 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 2: are games that they shouldn't. 561 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 1: Have for sure, absolutely at least two of them. 562 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 2: And yeah, and so I don't know, I think that 563 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 2: there's a case to be made. I can't really argue 564 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 2: either way on that because I think it's it's splitting hairs. 565 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, the conversation that everybody loves to have 566 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 1: when the Pro Bowl rosters come out. You're like, oh, 567 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: we have the most Pro bowlers, who got nine the 568 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: most in the league. Yeah, who should have gotten it? 569 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 1: We got ripped off? Yeah, right, And so I think 570 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: that there's three players. And it's what's really cool too, 571 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: is the Ravens have a lot of alternates on this 572 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: year's roster. I mean you have here's all the alternates. 573 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 1: There's seven. There's Kyle van Noy, Ronnie Stanley, Mark Andrews, 574 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: Nick Moore, Justin Tucker, Chris bord Is a special teamer, 575 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: and Daniel foul Lele, which is one of my favorite 576 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: parts of this whole thing. Yeah, that Daniel foul le 577 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 1: the guy that's gotten so much smoke from Ravens fans 578 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 1: on social media all season long, people bellyaching about file 579 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 1: Ale and wondering if Bank Cleveland should play and all this. 580 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: Hey guys, the Pro Bowl alternate. Yeah, okay, so you know, 581 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 1: the coaches and players around Lee, I don't think foul 582 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,439 Speaker 1: Ale was blowing away the fan vote. I'm gonna guess 583 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: that the coaches and players around the league were like, hey, 584 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: you know what, this guy's pretty good. Yeah, you know 585 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: what I mean, even to be an alternate means you're 586 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: in the top third of the guards in the league 587 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 1: starting guards. 588 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 2: So like, yeah, I think that's really to him. I 589 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,199 Speaker 2: think that's gonna feel pretty good to him. 590 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:02,719 Speaker 3: And it was. 591 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 2: It was cool when DaCosta told Derrick Henry that fall 592 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 2: Ailea had been named the Pro Bowl alternate, you could. 593 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 2: I think that players certainly were aware of the heat 594 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 2: that he was getting this year. Absolutely a couple of 595 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 2: times in the locker room where or in press conferences 596 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 2: where Lamar or Derrick Henry have sook Off stood up 597 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 2: for him. And I think that him getting that recognition 598 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 2: as an alternate is significant. 599 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: And I think they both said it's big for his confidence. 600 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 1: Like you can see Daniel Fallallele, he's not the most 601 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: like outwardly cocky guy, you know what I mean. Like, 602 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: I think it's just big for him as he continues 603 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: to believe, Yeah I can, I can be a dominant guard, 604 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, And uh so that was really neat. 605 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 1: But talking about the snubs, I think Mark Andrews and 606 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 1: Kyle van Noy are at the top of my list. 607 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Mark Andrews has the most touchdowns in the 608 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,239 Speaker 1: league for tight ends with ten. Nobody else has more 609 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: than seven. Yeah, and so you know he he doesn't 610 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: make it now. You know, it's tough. It's tough at 611 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: tight end. You have Travis Kelce, who we all know 612 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 1: the Swifties are going to vote for him. 613 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey had the most votes of any player amongst 614 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 2: the fans in the league. 615 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: It's or shocker, right, So you know, I mean only 616 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: two guys go at tight end and then brock Bowers 617 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: led the led all tight ends by a very wide margin. 618 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: In receiving yards. The rookie for the Raiders had one 619 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: thousand currently has one and forty four receiving yards. So 620 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 1: Mark with his six nineteen was pretty far behind that pace. 621 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: But you know what matters most, you know, getting in 622 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,880 Speaker 1: the end zone scoring points. The yards, yards don't win 623 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: games on the scoreboard touchdowns due, so I'm going to 624 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 1: beat the drump for my guy. 625 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that Mark. 626 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 2: I think what probably hurt Mark a little bit is 627 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 2: just a little slow out of the gate coming back 628 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 2: from the injury. The numbers the second half of the 629 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 2: season are much different than they were the first half 630 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 2: of the season, and so when the Pro Bowl money starts, 631 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,640 Speaker 2: he didn't have monster numbers. He just collected touchdowns over 632 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 2: the past six weeks. Really, and I think that that 633 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 2: probably hurt him from a voting standpoint, But I think 634 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 2: there's a strong case for him still. 635 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:08,439 Speaker 1: To be there, yea. And I think there could have 636 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: been a pretty decent case for him to beat Kelsey 637 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 1: to be all in all honesty, you know, as we said, Kelsey, 638 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: but the fan vote, but it wasn't like Mark was 639 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: that far behind him and receiving its two hundred yards 640 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: behind him and receiving that's not a golf right, And 641 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: he has seven more touchdowns ten to three, you know, 642 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 1: so like and and Kelsey was the guy in Kansas City, 643 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: no doubt about it. The Ravens have a much more 644 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: diversified attack than Kansas City's had all season long. 645 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 3: I think you do with any. 646 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 2: Pro Bowl voting is is a flawed process to like 647 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 2: there's whenever you've just had people, there's fan votes, there's 648 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: again fan vote, player vote, coach votes. And so Kelsey's 649 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:49,479 Speaker 2: gone to the Pro Bowl, I don't know how many 650 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 2: years exactly. He makes it like he he's gonna get. 651 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: A lot of votes, it's gonna be a Pro Bowl 652 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: tight end. He's he's awesome. It's nothing. Kelsey is a 653 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: great player. I'm just saying, like, if you get down 654 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: to the nitty gritty who had the better season this year, 655 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: it's you can go either way on that. 656 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then van Noy, I think has maybe even 657 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 2: a stronger case as a guy who has eleven and 658 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 2: a half sacks this year. 659 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: And for time for fourth most in the league. 660 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 2: Like, if you were to just ask somebody on the street, 661 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 2: like give me the five players who lead the league 662 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 2: in sacks, I don't think many people would say van 663 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 2: Noy And I think that that probably speaks to what 664 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 2: you guys talk with him on the podcast about this week, 665 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 2: is being overlooked for much of his career and underappreciated. Yes, 666 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 2: overlooked and undappreciated. That's kind of been the story of 667 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 2: his career. So this is this. 668 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: Fits nothing new. 669 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's used to being overlooked and wish for him 670 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 2: that he would have gotten in. 671 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 3: I definitely think he has a strong case, yep. 672 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: But well, the other outside linebackers, again, this is it's 673 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: tough in the AFC. You look at the leader board 674 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: and sacks in the NFL, just about everybody's in the 675 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: AFC at the top of the board and TJ. Watt, 676 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously he's going to be a Defensive Player 677 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: of the Year, even though he doesn't have as many 678 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: sacks as a year ago. He's a candidate. And then 679 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: Nick Benito, the young Broncos linebacker, really kind of Cape 680 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: bursts onto the scene this year, has a production, had 681 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: a huge pick six to win them a game that 682 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: surely got a lot of attention. So he's a he's 683 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: a starter outside linebacker. And then really the one, if 684 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: you're arguing Kyle van Noy's case, which we are, it's 685 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: Khalil Mack, you know, And now Khalil Mack is Khalil Mack. 686 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: He has the name, recognition and all those things. But 687 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: if you get down to the stats, I mean, he 688 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: has six and a half sacks, six sacks this year, 689 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: and so Kyle van Noy has almost twice as many, 690 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 1: And you know, I think that's another case of like 691 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: both guys, you can't claim agism. Khalil Mack's up there too, 692 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: but I think he has just he's just generally seen 693 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: and appreciated as a Pro Bowl caliber guy, whereas Kyle 694 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: van Noy doesn't have that reputation as much as he 695 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: probably should. Yeah, back to back, it's not a fluke 696 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: for kyleve Anoy back to back years now with this 697 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: kind of production and over his career, he's just been 698 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: a productive guy. 699 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,239 Speaker 2: He also this year, earlier in the year was an 700 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 2: AFC Player of the month, and so he he like 701 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 2: I think he has got a really strong case. I 702 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 2: think he should have been a Pro Bowler and it's 703 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 2: it's disappointing for him not to make it, but again 704 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 2: I think that fits the fits the what he's dealt 705 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 2: with for much of his career. 706 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,719 Speaker 1: And lastly, I would say Ronnie Stanley, Uh, you know, 707 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: he's certainly returned to We've been saying it all year. 708 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: Return to Pro Bowl for him doesn't end up making 709 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: the roster. You know, the AFC has some great blockers, 710 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: Dion Dawkins and Larry Tunseell tunsall from Ronnie's draft class. 711 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: It's just been getting it done for years upon years 712 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: upon years, and this year has been no different. The 713 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: Bills have one of the best offensive lines, if not 714 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: the the best in the league, so Dean Dawkins is 715 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: going to be there, and then the young guy Ray 716 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 1: Shawn Slater is just a great talent for the Chargers. 717 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: So it's tough. As great as Ronnie's season has been, 718 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: I think it's just it's difficult for him to make 719 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: it given all the other talented offensive lineman. But he's 720 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: certainly proven himself this year. 721 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's really hard for offensive lineman to 722 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 2: there's not stats to go along with it necessarily in 723 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 2: the same way that there are for receivers and pass 724 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 2: rushers and these quarterbacks, and so I think that that 725 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 2: makes it a little bit challenging to assess the overall 726 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 2: offensive line play. And also, like players fans us even 727 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 2: it's hard. I haven't really like glued in on ra 728 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 2: Shaun Slater's play this year and the like how's he 729 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 2: played in comparison to Ronnie Stanley. It's a little just 730 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 2: tougher to evaluate comparison wise. But I think for Ronnie, 731 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 2: of course you want to make it. But this is 732 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 2: a guy who's been to the Pro Bowl, he's gotten big, 733 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 2: gotten the big contract. I don't think that that's really 734 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 2: the driver for him at this point of his career. 735 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 2: I think that like, this is a guy who is 736 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 2: he's looking to win a ring, and he got back 737 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 2: to playing at the level that he's capable of this year. 738 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 2: He knows it, the Ravens know it, and now he's 739 00:32:58,720 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: looking to get a little hardware. 740 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: And one thing that Ronnie did miss out on, and 741 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: this is according to Brian McFarland at Raven's salary cap 742 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: there is a very big roster bonus attack might change 743 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: what I just said. Yeah, yeah, So according to Brian McFarland, 744 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 1: Ronnie in his renegotiated contract that we talked about this 745 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: this past all season, if he played at least eighty 746 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 1: five percent of the snaps, Ronnie's played in ninety eight percent, 747 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 1: so he cleared that hurdle. And if he made the 748 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 1: original Pro Bowl ballot, he was in line for seven 749 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 1: and a half million dollars that he would have gotten. 750 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 1: So that is a that's a lot of that's a 751 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: lot of change. It is and now I think Ronnie 752 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: either way has made himself a lot of money. Yeah, 753 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: this upcoming goal this upcoming off season, but seven and 754 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: a half million, so like that would have been on 755 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:52,239 Speaker 1: the Ravens docket. That him missing out on the Pro 756 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: Bowl save the Ravens some money. Feel bad for Ronnie 757 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: obviously because he's been had a fantastic season, but that's 758 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: I think a note to get out there. 759 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, totally. 760 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 2: So congratulations to all these guys, both alternates and the 761 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 2: players who made it to the Pro Bowl. All very 762 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 2: deserving and again the Ravens have the most Pro bowlers 763 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 2: in the NFL. And they are all hoping not to 764 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 2: be in attendance. 765 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,280 Speaker 1: That's right, that's right. We're gonna be in New Orleans. 766 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,439 Speaker 2: Maybe they have other plans. So we'll take a quick 767 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 2: break and then we'll dive into the conversation around Saturday's 768 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,399 Speaker 2: game against the Cleveland Browns. You're listening to the last 769 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 2: podcast we are coming to you from the Sea Geek Studio. 770 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 2: We also want to mention our partners with Draft Kings Sportsbook. 771 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,360 Speaker 2: They are an official sports betting partner of the Baltimore 772 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 2: Ravens Draft Kings Sportsbook. The Crown is yours. So the 773 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 2: Ravens will welcome to Cleveland Browns to town this weekend. 774 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,240 Speaker 2: They kick off the final weekend of the regular season, 775 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 2: first game of the weekend, YEP Saturday at four point 776 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 2: thirty and the math is simple for the Ravens. If 777 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 2: they win this game, they are AFC North champions. Don't 778 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:50,800 Speaker 2: have to watch the scoreboard. You can have a stress 779 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 2: free weekend of watching the rest of the games around 780 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 2: the league. Win the game and the Ravens are back 781 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 2: to back AFC North champs, and then they get to 782 00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 2: sit back and see who they will play in the. 783 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 3: First to play. 784 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, So if the Steelers win later that evening against 785 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: the Bengals, then the Ravens will face the Los Angeles 786 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,839 Speaker 1: Chargers in the first round of the playoffs. They'll come 787 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 1: to M and T Banks Stadium. The Ravens will be 788 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: the three seed, and the Chargers will be the six seed. Now, 789 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: if the Steelers lose to the Bengals and then the 790 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: Chargers beat the Raiders, it'll be the Steelers will drop 791 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: to the six seed behind the Chargers, and the Steelers 792 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: will come to M and T Banks Stadium, So that's 793 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 1: the other possibility. Then, of course, if the Ravens do 794 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: not beat the Browns and the Steelers beat the Bengals, 795 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: the Ravens are not AFC North champions, they would be 796 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 1: the five seed and that would mean going to Houston. 797 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,359 Speaker 2: So those are the three different options and possibilities there 798 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 2: for the Ravens. But of course they're just focused on 799 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 2: taking care of business. Ravens are big favorites in this game, 800 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 2: but they also know that they lost to the Browns 801 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 2: earlier this season, yep. And so while this is a 802 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,840 Speaker 2: game that everybody's picking the Ravens to win, the Browns 803 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 2: have said Miles Garrett said They're out to play spoiler 804 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 2: and the Ravens are out to win the division, and 805 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 2: they do not. They know that this is a game 806 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:07,320 Speaker 2: that they just need to take care of business and 807 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 2: play their kind of football and they should be in 808 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 2: good shape. 809 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: Look, the Ravens are heavy favorites in this game. They 810 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 1: absolutely should win this game. But it's the Browns, right 811 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: and every time these two teams get together, it's a physical, 812 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 1: tough game, and I expect the same. The Browns are 813 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: not a team I think that playing against their rivals, 814 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,959 Speaker 1: they're just going to roll over by any means. And 815 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 1: so but with that said, you know, the Browns are 816 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: dealing with a fair amount of injuries. Even Miles Garrett 817 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 1: David and Joku Denzel Ward, you know, some of their 818 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 1: top players Jordan Hicks all dealing with injuries. They're banged up. 819 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 1: The Ravens are in pretty good health going into this game. 820 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 1: And the Ravens have a lot to play for in 821 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,359 Speaker 1: this one. They want to win the AFC North, there's 822 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: no doubt about it. You can talk about what's the 823 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 1: best matchup for them to get in the first round 824 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: and all that stuff. The Ravens want to be AFC 825 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: North champions. That is the goal. 826 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 2: I mean John Harbaugh said it right this week to 827 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 2: kind of kick off the week. It's one of our 828 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 2: five main goals to win the division. Like that's when 829 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 2: they go at the start of the season. What do 830 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 2: you what's the goal? What are the goals? 831 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 3: Winning the division is one of the first. 832 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 1: Right, you think they want to see the Steelers be 833 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: aafsen or champs tech. No, they don't want to see that. 834 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,800 Speaker 1: So the Ravens are playing and they're playing the Stars, 835 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 1: and they're they're playing the Zach Wrz said that I'm 836 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: not holding anything back from a defensive scheming, play calling standpoint. 837 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,359 Speaker 1: We're going after now, which I think you hope for. 838 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,359 Speaker 1: The ideal sentari in this game is you get out 839 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 1: to a pretty big lead and you pull the starters. 840 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 1: That's I think the hope, and I think the Ravens 841 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 1: have a decent chance of doing that. Look, the Browns 842 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 1: are dealing with issues at quarterback. We talked about the 843 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 1: other injuries. The primary ones at quarterback. Jamis Winston, who 844 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 1: beat the Ravens earlier this season, is dealing with a 845 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: shoulder injury. The reports are from Kevin Stefanski. The Browns 846 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: head coach that he will be the emergency third quarterback, 847 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: even though he's been limited in practice this week. That 848 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:56,920 Speaker 1: leaves either Dorian Thompson Robinson, who's second year quarterback, or 849 00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 1: Bailey Zappi, who hasn't started a game yet the season, 850 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 1: and as the Browns starting quarterback. I have a tough 851 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 1: time seeing with the way the Ravens are playing defense 852 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 1: right now, them scoring many points with those guys at quarterback, 853 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 1: and they should not, right And so thus I have 854 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: a tough time seeing how the Browns win this game 855 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: unless the Ravens were to beat themselves. If the Ravens 856 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 1: play their game, they should they should beat the Browns 857 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:22,280 Speaker 1: pretty handily. 858 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 2: Well, you go back to that game that they lost 859 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 2: to and now was Jameis Winston a quarterback, and he 860 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 2: has the ability to get hot, which he kind of 861 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 2: did in that game, and it's like, how do you 862 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 2: how do you lose a game that you are heavy 863 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 2: favorites to win. 864 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 3: Well, Well, they dropped five interceptions in that game. I 865 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 3: mean that's I. 866 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 1: Don't think it was quite five, but it was a lot. 867 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 2: It was a number, and including one of the very 868 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 2: end of the game that would have just won it 869 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 2: and sealed it, and so I think that there's they 870 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 2: that's how you lose one of those games and you 871 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,319 Speaker 2: make those mistakes. The Ravens have cleaned up. I think 872 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 2: that that type of play from a just mistake standpoint, like. 873 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 1: They playing cleaner football. 874 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,760 Speaker 2: They have been over the past six weeks and especially 875 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 2: coming out of the bye week, when you play three 876 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 2: games in eleven days against tough opponents and the Ravens 877 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 2: are playing clean football. I think that those issues that 878 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 2: we saw against the Browns earlier this year, I don't 879 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 2: think those are going to creep up again in this game. 880 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: Yep. Absolutely. The only the thing that I think you 881 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: have to watch is this Brown's defense can rise up 882 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: and be a really stingy, tough defense. It just can. 883 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: Like you get Miles Garrett, and if Miles Garrett plays, 884 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: which I assume he will in this game, he's always 885 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 1: capable of wreckon shop yep. And they are aggressive downhill, 886 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna make you beat them. And now that aggress 887 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: in this you have to flip that and beat that. 888 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,399 Speaker 1: But if you don't, it can be a long day 889 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: for you. Offensively, as good as the Ravens offense is 890 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 1: so they got to go out there and beat a physical, tough, good, 891 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: well coached brown team, and I think they will. 892 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 2: The other part two on the for the Browns offense, 893 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 2: they have one of the other Pro Bowl wide receivers, 894 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 2: Jered Judy, had big time stats this year, put up 895 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 2: a lot. 896 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,799 Speaker 1: Of especially near the end of the year. We said 897 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: what that one game was like three hundred yards something 898 00:39:59,280 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: some big. 899 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 2: Time number this year. And so if you're looking at 900 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 2: their offense and now I know there's questions at quarterback, 901 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 2: which is the biggest thing for their offense, but just 902 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 2: keep Jerry Judy in check and don't let him get 903 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 2: the super hot the way he did in that game 904 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 2: where he put up monster stats. And so I think 905 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,880 Speaker 2: that he's probably the biggest threat offensively for their group 906 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 2: and you need to keep him in check. And again, 907 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 2: the secondary's been playing really well, but that's I think 908 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 2: priority number one for the secondary. 909 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:27,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. It'll be a fun game. It's a 910 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: hats and T shirts game for the Ravens at M 911 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: and T Banks Stadium. Hope that we are wearing one 912 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: of those in the postgame press box, yes, and talking 913 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: about sizing it up and going into the playoffs, Healthy 914 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: and strong. That's the vision for the Ravens. So got 915 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 1: to take care of business and win that AFC North title. 916 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:46,359 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening.
