1 00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: Welcome into Lounge podcast presented by Draft Kings. 2 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 2: The Ravens suffered a brutal seventeen to ten loss in Pittsburgh. 3 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,920 Speaker 2: Ravens found just about it every way possible to lose 4 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 2: this game. I said after the Colts game that this 5 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 2: was that that was a very frustrating loss. This one 6 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 2: might have taken the cake from that one. Just they 7 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 2: literally dropped the ball on an opportunity and a game 8 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 2: they really should have blown them out. Sorry I didn't 9 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 2: even intro you, Cassie. This is Ryan as usual. I'm 10 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 2: here with Cassie Calvert stepping in from Garrett for Garrett 11 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 2: because Garrett is in Pittsburgh traveling back. Can't really record 12 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 2: while you're on the team plane. Cassie and I were 13 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 2: watching this one from home, like many of you out there. 14 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 2: So yeah, we got the pleasure of quote unquote enjoying 15 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 2: this one from our couches. I'll say this, I dropped 16 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: way more f bombs than I ever should have in 17 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 2: front of my in laws. I was watching the game 18 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 2: of their house. That wasn't good. So yeah, fun day. 19 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 3: I don't think either of us are envious of Garrett 20 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 3: and Cliff on the team plane back right now that 21 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 3: this is never a fun one, especially on a daylight today, 22 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 3: and I think that it's probably for the best that 23 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,119 Speaker 3: both of us are watching from the safety of our 24 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 3: homes and not in the press box for everyone can see. 25 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 3: You're in here in the Minx Kate your reactions to 26 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 3: this game. And yes, no, we will not be recording 27 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: a podcast like this on the team plane. I don't 28 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 3: think that would go over well. 29 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: I don't think that would be a good call. 30 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 2: No, no, all right, so Cassie, let's jump in from 31 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 2: the top here. You know, the frustrating part of this 32 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 2: was that I thought the Ravens came out and looked 33 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 2: pretty darn good, but it didn't take you know, overall, 34 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: like you're like, all right, we're playing well defensively, playing 35 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: really well offensively moving the ball, but drops from the 36 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: get go really kind of doomed this offense in what 37 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: should have been a blowout. I think really early in 38 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,679 Speaker 2: this game. That I mean, I think the Ravens could 39 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 2: have won this game in the first quarter. It could 40 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: have been pretty much done. With the way that the 41 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 2: Steelers offense is struggling, you have booze from the Steelers 42 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 2: fans early loudly chance booze and like the Ravens had 43 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 2: a chance to just stop, just choke them out early 44 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,839 Speaker 2: in this game, and literally dropped it. Zay Flowers drop 45 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 2: on the opening drive should have been at least you 46 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 2: would have been in field goal range, should have had three. 47 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 2: Next next drive, get a touchdown. Following drive, you're in 48 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 2: the red zone off Mark Andrews hands. That wasn't a gimme, 49 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 2: but one he could have made. Could have made that catch. 50 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 2: Then you have Rashad Bateman with a gimme, drops that 51 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 2: one in the ends, and that's that's so you have 52 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 2: to settle for a full field goal. That's four points. 53 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 2: Another Jay Flowers drop, Nelson Aguilar dropped that should have 54 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 2: been a touchdown in the second half, fourth quarters. A 55 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: Flowers falls down when he's behind the Steelers secondary. Who 56 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 2: knows what he could have done with that, but it 57 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 2: would have been a huge game. 58 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson fumble recovers the ball. 59 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson fumble. 60 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm talking specifically the drops. 61 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 3: You don't want to go fumbles yet, we're starting. 62 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: With the drops. What do you make of the drops? 63 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: I mean, what do you even do with that? 64 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 3: I don't know, and you know to your point, there's 65 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 3: so many missed opportunities there. I mean, this team has 66 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 3: been so efficient and successful in the red zone so 67 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 3: far this season, and it's so unlike this offense to 68 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 3: be in the red zone to have two opportunities at 69 00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 3: touchdowns there than Mark Andrews and Rashad Bateman passes that 70 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 3: you you referenced. If you're Greg Lewis on the sideline, 71 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 3: I don't know what you're saying to your guys, and 72 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 3: it's it hasn't been a problem that so far this season, 73 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 3: and I don't necessarily think that it will continue. It's 74 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 3: interesting with like weather or not being really a factor. 75 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 3: You know, in the Colts game, he's also bumbles, but 76 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 3: the conditions were wet, you know, it was a dry, 77 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 3: clear day in Pittsburgh. Like you can't really blame it 78 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 3: on on weather being a factor, And it was just 79 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 3: you know, you see that sometimes from like one player specifically, 80 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 3: and like you know, maybe they kind of have like 81 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: a yip situation, but to see it across the board 82 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 3: like that really odd and unexpected, and then you know it's. 83 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: Just kind of contagious. Yeah, it was like it was 84 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: like a disease. 85 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 3: You're getting a case of the yips, and then it's 86 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 3: it's just from across multiple guys. But even without you know, 87 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 3: just one or two of those, we're talking about a 88 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 3: different you know, setting up the game very differently, especially 89 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 3: in the second half. 90 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 2: I mean, the crazy part is I saw this stat 91 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 2: during the game that from Pro Football Focused that the 92 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 2: Ravens were one of two teams in the NFL who 93 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 2: did not have a single drop through the first four 94 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: weeks of the season by a wide receiver. Zero and 95 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 2: then this game you have five i think four by 96 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 2: wide receivers. Sure, and so you know, kind of to 97 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 2: your point, I don't expect that this is going to 98 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 2: be like something that carries over. 99 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: You can't let it. 100 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: I mean, they're I'm sure they're gonna be on the 101 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: drugs machine in London, however many roll them all in whatever, 102 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 2: however many drugs machines you got in London, bring them 103 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 2: in right, and so I'm sure they're gonna be hitting those. 104 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 2: But like these guys, you know, I don't know what 105 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 2: it is. I have faith in their hands overall. Zay Flowers, 106 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 2: you know, first game rookie in Pittsburgh, Mike Tomlin, you 107 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 2: know obviously cursed him clearly with his comments this week 108 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 2: is very flattering comments. Obviously put the hecks on them. 109 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: I don't know what kind of voodoo Mike Tomlin's got 110 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 2: going on, but there's something and you know, I don't know, 111 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 2: I don't know whether it was a rookie kind of 112 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 2: the circumstances in the environment, you know, like Lamar Jackson 113 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 2: said this week, like this game in Pittsburgh playing Steelers 114 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 2: is different. Lamar Jackson said it pretty clearly this week, 115 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 2: like it's just different, different vibes. Maybe Zay Flowers felt that. 116 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: I don't think so, but I don't know your grassmate 117 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 2: at straws. For when you're trying to answer the why 118 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 2: of why there are drops, you're just grasp at straws 119 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 2: and sometimes as much as it, you know, stinks, there 120 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 2: is no explanation. That's how I felt this whole ding 121 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 2: dang game, like I cannot explain this, I cannot believe 122 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: this is happening. 123 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, and these are guys that obviously like we don't 124 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 3: expect that from And your talking about Mike Tomlin's comments 125 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 3: about day this was the game I wanted him in 126 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 3: the end zone, you know, Burn Patrick Peterson after he 127 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 3: makes his comments this week, calling him a you know, 128 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 3: we'll keep our eye on that little munchkin. This was 129 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 3: the game I wanted day to really have that huge 130 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 3: Raymond Steelers moment, and unfortunately that. 131 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: Was that was not the case, yep. 132 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 2: And I mean the Ravens defense was balling in the 133 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 2: first half. The Steelers, like we said, the boom Birds 134 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 2: are out, they were getting nothing nothing. Then you have 135 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 2: really the you know, besides the drops that we talked 136 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 2: about that you know, you had a chance to go 137 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: up fourteen to nothing if for Shot Bateman or Mark 138 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: Andrews hang on to that ball, probably ball game from 139 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 2: there on out, quite frankly. 140 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: And then. 141 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 2: Justice Hill, you know, you get another punt. Justice Hill 142 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: fumbles near midfield, gets just gets off from behind, which 143 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 2: really stunk too, because I thought Justice was having a 144 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 2: great game, had a touchdown run, like made a spin 145 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: move to get a first down, was playing great. 146 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: And then gets stripped from behind. 147 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 2: And you know we've seen ball security continues to be 148 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 2: an issue for the Ravens and just coughing the ball 149 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: up again kind of to the drops point, what do 150 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 2: you do. I'm sure they've after that Colts loss. You know, 151 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,559 Speaker 2: I and tight was preached. I know for a fact 152 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 2: it was preached. And you know, credit the Steelers for 153 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 2: guy for making a play. But you just can't put 154 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 2: the ball on the ground. You put the ball, you 155 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 2: turn the ball over like that, You're gonna lose a 156 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 2: lot of games that way. 157 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think this was another case, like we talked 158 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 3: about after the Colts game, where the Ravens beat themselves 159 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 3: or yeah, beat themselves, like you know, I saw someone 160 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 3: say on Twitter after the game, there even be five 161 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 3: and zero. They're playing themselves every week, but. 162 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 2: It's three and they're three and two, but should be 163 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 2: five zero. They beat themselves twice exactly. 164 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, So I mean I think we talked about this too, like, 165 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 3: I mean, they're just clearly they are the better team, 166 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 3: and so you let like one or two of these 167 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 3: opportunities goes the other way and it's a different ballgame on. 168 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 2: That was the other thing that was really annoying me 169 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 2: the broadcasters being like the Pittsburgh Steelers defense is like, yeah, 170 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 2: and sure they made some plays late when we were 171 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 2: to our backup, back up right tackle, but like, give 172 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 2: me a rake. I mean, it was the Ravens offense 173 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 2: was coughing this up. It wasn't like the Steelers defense 174 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: was playing that great. I mean the Ravens were dominating 175 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 2: them in yards at halftime, dominating them and so that 176 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 2: that was killing me too. Next thing that was painful 177 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: at the end of the first half. Let's just go through. 178 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: Let's just keep ripping off band aids. You're cast are 179 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 2: you ready? 180 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 3: All right? Yea, all these moments. 181 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 2: Put your brave face on because I'm ripping band aids, 182 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 2: all right. And the end of the half, Ravens marching down, 183 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: they're in field goal, They're in range for what would 184 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 2: have been a forty yard attempt by Justin Tucker. Instead 185 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 2: they go for it on fourth down and don't get it. 186 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: It was fourth and. 187 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 2: Two and an incompletion. John Harwall obviously on the sideline, 188 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 2: looked like you couldn't believe what had just happened. Turns out, 189 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 2: he explained after the game that the intention there was 190 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 2: they only put the offense on the field to run 191 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 2: out the clock. They were going to try to they 192 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 2: were gonna run out the clock. Basically, maybe you draw 193 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: them off size whatever. 194 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:01,559 Speaker 1: I don't know if. 195 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: Their intention, if they were hard counting and trying to 196 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 2: draw them off side or not. But they were going 197 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 2: to take a time out and kick the field goal, 198 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:09,559 Speaker 2: so that was the intention. They were in a no 199 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 2: snap situation is what John Harball called it. And Tyler 200 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 2: Linbaum thought that the Steelers encroached went into the neutral zone. 201 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 2: For that reason, you thought he had a free play. 202 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 2: They were going to get a five year penalty free 203 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 2: first down. That's why he snapped the ball. The flag 204 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 2: did not come, there was no penalty called, and Lamar 205 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: Jackson was not expecting a snap and thus the incompletion 206 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 2: just you know, just a miscommunication is what they called it. 207 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: Really just kind of a misread of the encroachment or 208 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,599 Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe there was encroachment. 209 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 1: And it just bad luck that didn't get called. I 210 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: don't know. 211 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 2: I have to watch that back, but anyway you slice it, 212 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,719 Speaker 2: just a tough turn of events. 213 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 3: And not a lot of time left on the clock 214 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 3: there even if you do get that playoff. 215 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 2: So right, even if you get the flag and you 216 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 2: get the free first down, you have maybe twenty seconds 217 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: from the eighteen, so you have a couple shots, two 218 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 2: to three shots. 219 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: Maybe at the end zone, and so the risk reward 220 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: there is not really worth it. 221 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 3: Probably you have that field goal and you have that touchdown, 222 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 3: this opportunity that we talked about the drive before. That's 223 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 3: ten points right there, and that's the game. 224 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean right, you kick the field goal. I'm 225 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 2: assuming Justin Tucker is gonna make it. 226 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: For forty yards. You're up thirty thirteen to three. Ten. 227 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 2: You know, you're feeling at halftime like, oh my gosh, 228 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 2: so many missed opportunities. But this is still a two 229 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 2: score game. Steelers offense has done nothing. You still feel, okay, 230 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 2: we're in good position to win this game, really good position. 231 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 2: And now it's still ten three. It's like, all right, 232 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 2: they're hanging around. They're hanging around. This is not what 233 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 2: you want, and you're feeling not good about how that 234 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: whole thing just played out. You just let points slip 235 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 2: away from you. So moving on the second half, Steelers 236 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 2: offense still doing nothing. Punt punt, punt, Raven's offense starts 237 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 2: to struggle a little bit more too, punt punt and 238 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 2: then you're getting ready to punt and does that master 239 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:06,079 Speaker 2: strikes punt block safety, almost a touchdown recovery for the Steelers. 240 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 2: You know, we talked about I'm not like gonna be 241 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 2: overly concerned about the drops moving forward. I am concerned 242 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 2: about the special team's performance because we've seen a trend 243 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 2: now it just is not We're used to a very 244 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 2: high standard of Ravens special teams play and it just 245 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 2: hasn't been it this year. 246 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: It hasn't. 247 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 2: It's they've had too many pivotal moments where it's really 248 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 2: cost them. 249 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: You give up a. 250 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 2: Punt block deep in your own zone, you know, these 251 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 2: are two points and a free kick, then you don't 252 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 2: have good coverage on the free kick. 253 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: It's been a problem. 254 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then you know last week at Cleveland, the 255 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 3: Ravens talked about how they played good, complimentary football, and 256 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 3: that was just not the case this week. You know, 257 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 3: you need the special teams play, especially in a game 258 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 3: like this where there have been a lot of mistakes 259 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 3: on offense, like good solid special teams play can really 260 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 3: carry the Ravens through in some of those moments, and 261 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 3: that was just not the case. 262 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I mean. 263 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 2: It's tough to see, all right. So the Steelers come 264 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 2: back down field goal. It's a ten to eight to 265 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 2: ten eight game. You know, the Ravens get a sack. 266 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:16,719 Speaker 2: They drove him out of a field goal range a 267 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: couple times, a which was you know, Arthur Mallett had 268 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 2: a sack. Patrick Queen I think had a sack. So 269 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,959 Speaker 2: defense kept balling out. You hold them. They come down 270 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 2: the field a nine play forty nine yard drive after 271 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 2: they had a return of twenty four yards on the 272 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 2: free kick that basically put him at midfield. Jayleen Warren 273 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 2: started to kind of heat up. But you hold him 274 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 2: to a field goal. All right, it's still. 275 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 1: Ten to eight. Ravens punt the ball away. 276 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 2: You're thinking, oh my gosh, it's about five and a 277 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 2: half minutes left. All of a sudden, the dark clouds break, 278 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 2: You get some sunshine through the clouds. I mean, I'm 279 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 2: thinking there is no football guy anymore. 280 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: All of a sudden redemption. 281 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 2: They cough up the deep in their own territory. On 282 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 2: the punt, Ravens recover Kevan Seymour. I thought he was 283 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: gonna run it back. Quite frankly, did it not look like. 284 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 3: I mean, his teammates were all like around him. I 285 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 3: honestly kind of felt like they pulled him down. I'm like, 286 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 3: sup a little give him some room. He's running and 287 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 3: there's really no like Steelers immediately in the area. 288 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: I'm like, let him penalty on our own. 289 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 3: Guys, they're literally wrapping him up. Like I understand you're 290 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 3: trying to like protect him, protect the ball, but like, 291 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 3: let Kevan go into the end zone. 292 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: That's kind of what I was see. I said the 293 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: same thing, and they were Yeah. 294 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 2: My father in law was like, well, considering everything, you 295 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 2: gotta protect it. 296 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: Considering what's going down. 297 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 2: Like anyway, Ravens still got the ball at the seven. Yeah, right, 298 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 2: I mean first and goal from the seventh. This has 299 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 2: been the best red zone offense in the league eighty 300 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 2: conversion rate and Gus had for three. You try a 301 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 2: crafty little shovel past of Mark Andrews that they sniff 302 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 2: out loss of a yard. Then the interception, you know, 303 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 2: Odell Beckham's I feel like it's one of those moments 304 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 2: where you're like, we got Odell. This guy is gonna 305 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 2: make clutch plays. This is why you brought Odell Beckham 306 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 2: to Baltimore in part. Right, guys got big time ups, 307 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 2: like we all know Odell and his ability to high 308 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 2: point a ball. This one knit you know, not a 309 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: great pass by Lamar, which sucks because Lamar have been 310 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 2: playing such a great j game. Had put the ball 311 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 2: in the Ravens hands with I mean Nelson aglor play, 312 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 2: you know, that could have broken the game open in 313 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 2: the second half. 314 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: That happened earlier on in the in the half. 315 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 2: Now Lamar just leaves one short and you have Odell 316 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 2: Beckham with Joey Porter Junior, a guy. 317 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: It's a jump ball feed. Porter's got several. 318 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 2: Inches on him and goes up and makes the play 319 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 2: for an interception, the very last thing that you can 320 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 2: afford in that situation. 321 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, you can do it anything but throw a pick 322 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 3: right there. And Lamar Dakins said it for the game 323 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 3: is just trying to make something happen. But you you 324 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 3: miss out on an opportunity to capitalize on that huge 325 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 3: turnover by Kievan. You don't get any points out of it. 326 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 3: And it said you lose the ball. 327 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 2: I mean you kick a field goal there a chippy. 328 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 2: It's thirteen to eight, right, they then they still no, 329 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, no, yes, thirteen to eight. 330 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 1: Get I'm getting mixed up here. Then at least they 331 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: have to score. 332 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 2: A touchdown, yeah right, I mean you're forcing them to 333 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 2: score a touchdown, which they haven't done all game. Their 334 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 2: offense hasn't it. It did not look like the Steelers 335 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 2: were going to reach the end zone, right and so 336 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 2: but of course they I guess I shouldn't say that 337 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 2: because now we had an eight play, eighty yard drive 338 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 2: and a forty one yard touchdown pass to Piket So 339 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 2: Pickens from Picket and you know, I'll get I'll give 340 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 2: the Steelers some credit on that, like good row by Pickett, 341 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 2: good play by Pickens got behind Marlon Humphrey in his 342 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 2: first game back. You feel for Marlin had been playing 343 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 2: a pretty good game to that point. 344 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: But Pickens just got him. It's one on one. 345 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 2: You had a shot over the top the Steelers. We're 346 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 2: gonna take those one on one opportunities. Pickens is a 347 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,199 Speaker 2: he's a very good receiver, and he beat Marlon on 348 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 2: the play. Noah sends or butts about it. For the 349 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 2: game winning touchdown. I mean, just a brutal, brutal moment 350 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,679 Speaker 2: for Marlin and the defense after playing so well almost 351 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 2: all game long. 352 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 3: Well and Pickett said this week that in those moments, 353 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 3: I mean, we all know that's who he's looking for, 354 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 3: and you just had this feeling that that's one of 355 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 3: those plays that they're gonna cycle through and there raven 356 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 3: Steelers highlight to the Steelers post every time we play them, 357 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 3: and we're gonna see that one for a while. But 358 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 3: it was it was a nice, nice throw, nice play 359 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 3: by both of them. 360 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 2: Yep, he saw the back shoulder really that play. Like 361 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,479 Speaker 2: the Steelers made maybe five plays all game long, the 362 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 2: back shoulder throws were really given. The Ravens Pickins hit 363 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 2: several of those toe tappers. I will say that that's 364 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 2: something in practice, Cassie that you and I both watched, was. 365 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 1: The Ravens and individual drills. Knew those were coming. 366 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 2: Practice had a specific drill that was different from other 367 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 2: weeks that I've seen to work on breaking up that 368 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 2: back shoulder throw. You know, some felling complete, more were completed. 369 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 2: You got to tip your cap again. Good throws, good 370 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 2: catches on those, they're tough to defense that they just are. 371 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 2: And the Steelers executed on those. They didn't execute on 372 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 2: much else, but they hit those, and that was part 373 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 2: of the problem. 374 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 1: Then just over the top, you give up one big 375 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 1: player at the top. 376 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 3: But then you're set up for a situation where the 377 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 3: Ravens also have the same opportunity to drive down the 378 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 3: field with what one seventeen left on the clock, and 379 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 3: exactly in a Ravens Steelers game, one seventeen of o'clock, 380 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 3: two timeouts remaining, you should be able to drive down 381 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 3: the fields and make them play to win that game. 382 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 2: Well, I honestly thought, and I wrote this week that 383 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 2: you know, this is Lamar's needs his Pittsburgh moment. He 384 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 2: needs a Pittsburgh moment. You know, he struggled against the Steelers. 385 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: He did not today. 386 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 2: Let's just say that like the whole Lamar you know, 387 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 2: hasn't played well against the Steelers thing. Okay, the interception 388 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 2: and the fumble, like, you can't take those away. But 389 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: for the most part, like Lamar did his job. He 390 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 2: put the ball in the right spots. Receivers drop balls 391 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 2: like it should have been a blowout before that stuff. 392 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 1: Even mattered and or happened. 393 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 2: They shouldn't have been in that scenario because of the 394 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 2: way that Lamar was playing. Quite frankly, and I thought 395 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 2: minute seventeen set up for that Lamar moment. 396 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 1: Let's go, this is gonna be the whatever Tory Smith T. J. 397 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 2: Huschman Zada next iteration of that, and you know, the 398 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 2: Ravens pass protection just down the stretch was a major problem. 399 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: And of course you're facing you know, gotta give him credit. 400 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: These are two really good pass rushers for the Steelers, 401 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 2: maybe the best in the league in TJ. 402 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: Watt, tough assignment. 403 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 2: Patrick McKay goes down with the chess injury in the 404 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 2: second half, early in the second half. 405 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: Now you're down to. 406 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 2: Your third string right tackle, Daniel Fouleles, second year player, 407 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 2: and that is a tough assignment against TJ. 408 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: Watt. 409 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 2: And yeah, it turned out to be just that, I 410 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 2: mean it was it was not the pressure basically just combusted, 411 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 2: just broke the Ravens offense down the stretch. 412 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, when you see Odell Buckham Junior and Lamar Jackson 413 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 3: trying to bring down TJ. Watt after he covers that ball, 414 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 3: and my heart was like in my chest like or 415 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 3: my throat, excuse me, Like I was a afraid that 416 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 3: one of them is getting hurt trying to bring him down. 417 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 3: So there's a silver lining that they both got out 418 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 3: of that. But that's just something that you absolutely never 419 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 3: want to see. 420 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, I mean, yeah, the fumbles. 421 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 2: You have to protect the ball. There's been too many 422 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 2: sack strips, too many fumbles in the pocket. It's a problem. 423 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 2: They have to clean that up too. I mean the offense, 424 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 2: Like that's really the frustrating thing with the offense. It's 425 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 2: been kind of like, you know, Texans game not great. 426 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 2: You know, come back, great game against the Bengals, really clean, 427 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 2: colts all the fumbles there, come back great game against the. 428 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: Bengals, really clean. 429 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 2: And then another it was kind of a mixed bag, 430 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 2: like you played pretty well, but again just not clean, 431 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: you know, the drag as Todd Munkin likes to call it. 432 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 2: And you feel like if the offense can get past 433 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 2: some of these turnovers and these just bug booes, like 434 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 2: just killing yourself, it can. 435 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: Be really good. 436 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 2: And that's what's so frustrating. You know, you compare it 437 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 2: to how the Steelers offense was playing, and the scheme's 438 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 2: like not even comparable, right, and yet they just keep 439 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 2: shooting themselves in the foot time and time again. I mean, 440 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 2: how many toads do we have left at this point. 441 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 3: It's not a lot, and it is week five, And 442 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 3: I will say, like, the one thing that does encourage 443 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 3: me is that like we're saying right now that they 444 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 3: were the better team and that the mistakes or something, 445 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 3: they're all things that are fixable, and so that does 446 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 3: make me feel good going into the rest of the 447 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 3: season that the Ravens can kind of control. They're making 448 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 3: their own mistakes, they're not getting outplayed, and so when 449 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 3: you can sure up those things, you know, and not 450 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 3: beat yourself and those those moments, then that, like they 451 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 3: then hopefully they will be able to finish those games. 452 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 3: I mean, that's what everyone said, all the players coach 453 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 3: tarball after the game. We have to be able to 454 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,360 Speaker 3: a finish drives and be finished games, close out those 455 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 3: key moments. 456 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 1: Yep, yeah, I mean that's really the thing. 457 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 2: The Steelers made the Pickings touchdown, They made like, like 458 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 2: I said, a handful of plays to close out the game. 459 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 2: The Ravens had a dozen chances they could have closed 460 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 2: out the game in the first quarter. Like I've said, 461 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 2: they had a dozen chances and really didn't make any 462 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 2: of them, right, and the Steelers hit on their very few. 463 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: That's a difference. That's the difference in the game, right 464 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: when you have a better team. The Ravens are one 465 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: hundred percent. 466 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 2: A better team than the Steelers are this year. I 467 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 2: think we're gonna see that bear out over the course 468 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 2: of the season. But you know what, today you got beat. 469 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 2: You beat yourself. I should take that back for rewind. 470 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 2: You beat yourself and they made those plays and critical 471 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 2: moments to beat you in the end, right they beat 472 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 2: I feel like the Ravens beat themselves for like three quarters, 473 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 2: maybe more three and a half. What do you think 474 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 2: three and three quarters? You gotta give you a Steelers 475 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 2: some credit. 476 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 3: Think you're giving the Steelers half a quarter essentially? Is 477 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 3: that what you're saying. 478 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I'm giving half a quarter. Yeah, that 479 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: feels right about It seems about right. 480 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 3: And unfortunately it will be until, of course Week eighteen 481 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 3: before the Ravens see the Steelers again, this time in Baltimore. 482 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 3: I do love, though, when the late season rematch is 483 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 3: at home and not on the road. That is the 484 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 3: solar lining. But I'm just like, of course that game 485 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 3: will have some meaning for one side or the other 486 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 3: come Week eighteen, and of course it's always got to 487 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 3: be the Steelers. 488 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 1: Yep. 489 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 2: Anyway, let's take a break and remind our listeners that 490 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 2: this week the DraftKings Sports Book and official sports betting 491 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 2: partner with the Baltimore Ravens has a limited time offer 492 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 2: you won't want to miss.
