4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: fun one to look at, Garrett this, I think I

Speaker 1: fun plays to watch.

9
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 3: Well, you know when after the game when John Harbaugh

10
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 3: said to the team in the post game of speech,

11
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 3: He's like, I can't watch enough football tonight, right, Like

12
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 3: you all know the feeling like after the Ravens win

Speaker 3: when they go around, they go around, you get everybody's tape.

17
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 1: That's your little highlight.

18
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, get like I've seen it. But like then

19
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 3: you get like everybody, you get like.

20
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 1: I love watching highlights after a game that I was

00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: already at. Yeah, and you go watch the You're like, yeah,

22
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: I want to see what you thought was the best place.

23
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,160
Speaker 1: I love doing that. Yeah.

24
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 3: It's kind of basically it's like in Harball said, I

25
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 3: can't watch enough tonight.

26
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: The only thing, though, I will say, uh, and you

27
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: can attest to this, was that you know, went home

28
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: feeling great about the win. Obviously, then the Steelers and

29
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 1: the Browns both get wins with some questionable officiating at

30
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: the end of those games, highly questionable, and it kind

31
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: of like, you know, so we didn't really move up

32
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: in the standings against their competition, really right. That made

33
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: me that I was really ruined. It soured the great

34
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 1: taste in my mouth. I came into work, I was salty,

35
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 1: I was grumpy, salty yesterday I wasn't salty.

36
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 2: I was I was.

37
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 3: It would have been great if those teams lost, but

38
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,680
Speaker 3: you know what, you know what, it just shows you

39
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 3: got to keep your foot on the gas and it's

40
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 3: gonna if you. If you needed any reminder that you

41
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 3: can't have a let up after a game like this,

42
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 3: this is evidence of it. These teams are right on

43
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 3: your right on your heels. I mean, honestly, like the

44
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 3: AFC North. You have a really strong case that if

45
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 3: the best division football.

46
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: You have the Bengals, who are in the AFC Championship

47
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,279
Speaker 1: Game last year, the last.

48
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 2: Two years, two years two years.

49
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: Ago exactly at three and three in last place in

50
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: the division, right and and honestly, the scary thing on

51
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: the Bengals is I think that they're going to get better.

52
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 2: I mean they've done that in the past couple of

53
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 2: years where.

54
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: They drank the thirty second in the league and they're

55
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: three and three right.

56
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 3: Now, and it's not going to stay thirty seconds. So

57
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 3: they're going to get better. So the point here, you know,

58
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 3: why do we get what? How do we end up here?

59
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: How do we end up here? Let's go back into

60
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: the film. Let me give you a stat.

61
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 3: Let me give you a stat that maybe we'll turn

62
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 3: the tide here. Because you try to rain on everybody's

63
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 3: free d v o A. It's it's advanced stats for

64
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 3: everybody out there sat nerds.

65
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: Like you don't even know stands for is d v A?

66
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 3: Okay, right, So the Ravens are ranked number one overall

67
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 3: in d v o A, which basically they're the best

68
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 3: team in the league when you look at the advanced metrics. Okay,

69
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 3: so take that for what it is that can that

70
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 3: changes from week to week. The top four teams in

71
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 3: terms of d v o A last week, they all

72
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 3: lost this week, so it's not like you're there for good.

73
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 3: But as it stands right now, the advanced metrics show

74
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 3: the Ravens are the best team.

75
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: In the league.

76
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 2: There's a lot of buzz around that.

77
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 1: So I had to turn this games pacifics of this game.

78
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: This was the best game by DVO metrics in Raven's history. Yeah,

79
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: the best game they've ever played. And I'll tell you

80
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: the film shows it. So let's jump in here, all right. Obviously,

81
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: we got to talk about the offense, right and really

82
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: what I thought that we saw was it was Todd

83
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,359
Speaker 1: Munkin's passing attack kind of taking flight and all of

84
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: it kind of coming together, and you just saw it

85
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: was like the Ravens offense could do no wrong in

86
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: this game, the play calling, the scheme, the execution of

87
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: those play calls. Like you know, as I said after

88
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: the game, I thought that the Cleveland game, Lamar made

89
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: more like wow throws than he did in this game.

90
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: They're watching the film, just a lot of really good

91
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: play calls that hit. And that's not to take anything

92
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: away from Laar. He made some great throws in this game,

93
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: but like you see, guys wide popping wide open for stuff,

94
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: and you saw that numerous times on the tape. That's

95
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,839
Speaker 1: also a sign of great great scheme, great play call

96
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: against that defense. And it just it was unreal, like

97
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: even when plays didn't work out, they still worked out. Yeah,

98
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: like they were still touchdowns or close to it. It

99
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: was incredible. So one thing I want to jump in

100
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: from the start was what we what I dubbed after

101
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: the game, the tuck run and pass, right, tuck run

102
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: and throw. You're I don't have I don't have my

103
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: T shirts ready, So if I had the T shirts printed,

104
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 1: I would look down. Yeah no, no, tuck run and throw.

105
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 1: And so let's go play by play on this a

106
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: little bit. The first one was to Odell Beckham, it's

107
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: the second play of the game, right, and really what

108
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: this is it's it's like triple option, which you think

109
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 1: of as a very old school football concept, but it's

110
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 1: like triple option with a pass twist. It's like updated

111
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: triple option. And so you had the dive element. Then

112
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: you have Lamar coming out to the right. He's the runner, right,

113
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: So you had the dive as the fake Lamar is

114
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: the runner. But now the the twist is oh Odell

115
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: Beckham pops open and Lamar goes from what seems to

116
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: be a clear runner to what wide open eleven yard

117
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: game right, It's just like, Wow, that's kind of the

118
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: you know, when you talked about the Ravens twenty nineteen

119
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: offense being revolutionary and all it did. Seeing that play,

120
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: it's kind of like, oh, this is the next kind

121
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: of the Ravens new twist on revolutionary in Todd Monkins offense.

122
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I just wanted to mention this as

123
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 3: you talked about kind of everything going right, I think

124
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 3: it's worth mentioning here and then I'll get back to

125
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 3: that play specifically.

126
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 2: But Todd Monkin got a.

127
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 3: Game ball after the game, and it seemed just you know,

128
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 3: if you haven't watched it yet, we've posted that posted

129
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 3: that video everywhere. A little plug for Wired this week. Okay,

130
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,559
Speaker 3: Mark Andrews was miked up this week.

131
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: Good person to have MICD two touchdown to take.

132
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 3: You into the locker room for a pretty awesome post

133
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 3: game speech where Todd Monkin gets the game ball. So

134
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 3: that full episode's coming out Wednesday night. You can watch

135
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,919
Speaker 3: it on a YouTube channel, on our app, on our website,

136
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 3: but the speech is out now and Monken got the

137
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 3: game ball, and I think he was really flattered by

138
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 3: the that he certainly seemed to be and you could

139
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 3: see the reaction from the players as well. They were

140
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 3: fired up for him. He he deserved a game ball

141
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 3: after this game. I mean, it just seemed like everything

142
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 3: was in He called everything perfectly. You said on the

143
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 3: reaction podcast he was in his back, He definitely was.

144
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 3: But yeah, in terms of that play and this this

145
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 3: kind of new wrinkle, Yeah, it's a it's an exciting

146
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 3: kind of new development in this offense that you have

147
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 3: all these different options. Now it's it's difficult to execute

148
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 3: in some regards because you got to have everybody working

149
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 3: in unison there in that in that like if you

150
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 3: the line needs to they can't, they can't run so

151
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 3: far soon down the field and then you get an

152
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 3: illegal man downfield.

153
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: Well that was really came into play more on the

154
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: second one of the series of that kind of play,

155
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: and it was really more it was kind of a

156
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: trick play, yeah, in essence, and this is the It

157
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: was a twenty two yarder I believe to Mark Andrews

158
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: that put him on the two yard line for the

159
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: Gus Edwards touchdown. And so that one, it looks like

160
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: it's really like like a toss play to the right.

161
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: It's like kind of crack toss right where the tight

162
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: end cracks down on the edge edge defender. You toss

163
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: it to the right. You have all these pooling linemen

164
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: moving to your right, and then you know Lamar Jackson

165
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: was the runner instead of a toss to a running back.

166
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: Lamar's your your runner in that situation, right, Except then

167
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: another twist, the tricky twist is Mark Andrews, who is

168
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: executing the crack block quote unquote, was really a decoy.

169
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: He's kind of rubbed off two guys and slipped through

170
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: to the second level wide open, and Lamar goes from

171
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: and I will say, it's it's really impressive ball handling,

172
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: you know, to have that ball tucked and sell it

173
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: so well by Lamar that he's going to be the

174
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: runner and then just kind of palm it and throw it.

175
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: It's essentially a trick play. And uh, and it worked

176
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: a perfection in that one.

177
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 3: The other factor here is like it's it is a

178
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 3: it is a it's a trick ish play, tricky play,

179
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 3: tricky what counts as trick play verse tricky.

180
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 2: Well exactly exactly.

181
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 3: And like the truth is like if Lamar wanted to

182
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 3: run it, he could, like he has that, but that.

183
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: Sure, I don't think that was the way it was

184
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: drawn up. But I don't know that he has that.

185
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 3: But my point here is like you can't just be like,

186
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 3: all right, well we're just gonna sell out and just Mark.

187
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: If packets held up at the line, right, he just

188
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: take off right, if Mark Mark. The good job by

189
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: Mark is you can't get held up in the traffic there,

190
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: which it's easy to get for that to happen. If

191
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: that's the case, sure Lamar can run that right And

192
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: and the linemen are like they're blocking. They have to

193
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: be careful to your point of not to get downfield

194
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 1: too early because really it's drawn up for a pass.

195
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: But like, yeah, they're blocking, and Lamar could have run.

196
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: So I thought, just another really creative play on that one. Now,

197
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: the third one that we talked about in that was

198
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: asked about post game was the eighty yarder to Gus Edwards.

199
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: And now I think that this was not as much

200
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: when I go back and watch it more, I don't

201
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 1: think it was as much design as much as it

202
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: was Lamar being Lamar and so so what you see

203
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: is he gets a snap and it looks like it's

204
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: just gonna be a naked quarterback run to the left. Right,

205
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,719
Speaker 1: it's blocking to the right. There's a free defensive and

206
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: a defensive end there that's crashing down on Lamar, and

207
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: basically it's I think the design was Lamar makes that

208
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: guy miss, he beats him, and he's off the races

209
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: to the left right. Lamar saw that and just didn't

210
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: like what he saw. I thought that, I think the

211
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's an end or a linebacker

212
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 1: was in good position and he basically juked to his

213
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: left and said, nah, I don't like this. I'm coming

214
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 1: back to my right, and then found Gus Edwards, who

215
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,839
Speaker 1: had kind of leaked out into the second level. I

216
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 1: don't know this for a fact, but I don't think

217
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 1: that's the way it was drawn up.

218
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 3: Yes, I've watched it like a hundred times. Yeah, it's

219
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 3: tough for me to tell, to be honest, because Gus

220
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 3: does look back. Gus looks back, and he also makes

221
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 3: no attempt to block. He just basically correct just peels

222
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 3: into the second level. Now, sure, if Lamar is running

223
00:09:58,880 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 3: to the left.

224
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: He doesn't really need block right, but he also did

225
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: design is a Lamar's basically a fake fake action to

226
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: the right misdirection. Lamar runs naked to the left.

227
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,959
Speaker 3: But he basically he like intentionally leaks out of the

228
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 3: backfield and then turns his head around immediately and is

229
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 3: looking for the ball. Now, maybe that was just maybe

230
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,719
Speaker 3: that's just two players being on the same page and

231
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 3: having a good feel for the game and Gus saying

232
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 3: there's maybe it's like hopeful he saw that over space

233
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 3: in front of him, was like, I may better turn

234
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 3: around a looft for the ball here.

235
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. J T O. Sullivan, who does a great job.

236
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: He's a former quarter NFL quarterback and does a great

237
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 1: job on his YouTube channel breaking all this stuff down.

238
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: I highly recommend watching him, by the way. Uh he

239
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: He theorized that he thinks Lamar might have shouted out

240
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: to Gus like like, you know, just been like he

241
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: wants to hear the audio from that basically to hear

242
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: a hey, you know, and and then Lamar hit him

243
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 1: and just reading between the lines of what was said.

244
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 1: Lamar was asked about that play after the game, and

245
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: he was kind of like laughed you know. He was

246
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: like yeaheah, sure, yeah it works. So it was schemed

247
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: it was schemed up. Yeah, that's how it was key sure, sure, sure,

248
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: you know. And then John Harball was asked about it

249
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: on Monday, I think to your question, right, yeah, and

250
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: John said that was a little versu jokes. He's like, yeah,

251
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: I work with Lamar on that play all the time.

252
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: And then he was like, now that's just Lamar being Lamar.

253
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:14,839
Speaker 2: Now, I kind of asked.

254
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 3: I did ask broadly about this, these plays in general,

255
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 3: basically this new wrinkle, but I did mention the gust player.

256
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: I think he was referring to the Gust play. Yeah,

257
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: So my my feeling is that John is speaking true.

258
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 1: Lamar's answer seemed to be kind of a wink wink,

259
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: like yeah, yeah, sure, I don't want to give too

260
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: much away. That was schemed up. And then John's answer

261
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: I think was pretty factual that like that was Lamar.

262
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 3: It's it's again to me, it's it's difficult to know,

263
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 3: Like it's it's difficult for me to tell whether it's skiing,

264
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 3: whether it's just players making a great play in a moment,

265
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 3: whatever it is. It's a problem for defenses to handle

266
00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 3: for sure, and like they opposing defensive coordinators are to

267
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 3: be asking themselves the same thing going up against the Ravens,

268
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 3: Like they're gonna have to worry about this element of

269
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 3: the offense. And whether it's just Lamar making ridiculous plays

270
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 3: and having a great feel for the game, or whether

271
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 3: it's Todd munkin kind of being creative and dialing these

272
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 3: things up, it honestly doesn't matter, Like if it works,

273
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 3: and it's a problem for defenses to handle exactly.

274
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: They're not in the credit business here, it doesn't matter. Yeah,

275
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: And so moving on, I want to go into just

276
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: chronologically here, just break down some of these plays offensively.

277
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: So first drive the big hitter to Zay Flowers. I

278
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 1: think a great example of pass protection, pat Ricard going

279
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: one on one with Aiden Hutchinson, their top pass rusher,

280
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 1: leading sack guy, number two overall pick last year, one

281
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 1: on one with pat Riccard and he holds up in

282
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: pass pro to really led a long kind of route

283
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: by Zay Flowers developed Lamar hits him in the second window.

284
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: Great throw by Lamar over the linebacker, and it was

285
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: a good example. I thought Lamar's arm talent really shined

286
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: in this game. And that was a great example of

287
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: you know, that's not a throw that he's really driving.

288
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: It's just like perfect kind of arc. Like Lamar has

289
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: a good touch on the ball and that was a

290
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: long pass, but like perfect touch over the over the

291
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: jumping linebacker. Just a great throw and Zay you know,

292
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: makes some guys miss and does his thing. So great throw.

293
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 3: When Zay Flowers catches the ball and like he turns

294
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 3: his head and he's got green grass in front of him,

295
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 3: Like that's an electric thing.

296
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 1: I think all of us are saying, how's it? Yeah,

297
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 1: Like and he's gonna get one of those. He's taking

298
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: one of those to distance.

299
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 2: Like I just know what he caught that.

300
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:37,839
Speaker 3: I mean, it was a perfect throw by It was

301
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 3: a perfect throw by Lamar to put it on the

302
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 3: money there and again Zay catches head and he just

303
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 3: had nothing.

304
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 2: But green grass in front of him. It was that

305
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 2: was pretty yeah.

306
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: Yep. Then you go to the touchdown fourth and one.

307
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,679
Speaker 1: Ravens obviously with the red zone troubles from a week ago,

308
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: they say, we want to punch this thing in badly,

309
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,199
Speaker 1: so they go for it and a just a great fake.

310
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: I mean another just good play, design, good execution by

311
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Completely faked it. I mean he's got his

312
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 1: back all the way turned to the defense and really

313
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: sells this thing. And I like the Lions bit hard.

314
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 1: I mean you see Lamar popping out to the left

315
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: and the Lions linebacker still going right, you know, Jack Campbell,

316
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: and it's I don't even know how they see where

317
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: the ball is. And that's kind of to John Harbaugh's

318
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 1: point when he's talking about the fumbles, the fumbling issues.

319
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: Some of the fumbling issues the Ravens have had, some

320
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: of it's on ball handling, and the Ravens have a

321
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: high bar for their ball handling because like there's just

322
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: a lot of misdirection, a lot of late pools, a

323
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: lot of this kind of stuff. That's an example of it.

324
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: Really great ball handling by Lamar Jackson to fake that

325
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: you can't see who has the ball, and then wide open,

326
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 1: just Ronnie Stanley waves the road to create an open

327
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: lane untouched for Lamar Jackson.

328
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 3: The funny thing is, like I think Lamar probably was

329
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 3: going in even without Ryne's block, but Ronnie's block just

330
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 3: it was it was just fun. He just drive the

331
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 3: guy ten yards into the back of the end zone

332
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 3: and he wanted to channel his intermal show on the

333
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 3: marshall yonda there.

334
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: I did see that a photographer was injured on the play.

335
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: We hope for the best for the posts.

336
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 2: Seriously, Yeah, definitely.

337
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 3: It's it's scary down there, I will tell you like

338
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 3: being down on the field at times like these players

339
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 3: get on you in a hurry and it can be

340
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 3: a scary atmosphere for photographers down there.

341
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 1: So second Ravens touchdown drive a couple good throws for

342
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: shat Bateman. It was good to see him heat up,

343
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: one of which, actually, you know, I thought it was

344
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: a really good play design just to open up the

345
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: middle of the field for Rashad. Bateman just cleared it

346
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: out for him. It was wide open. You know. Lamar

347
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: actually puts that ball a little bit in front of

348
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: her shod a little further in front. You remember that

349
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: one he reached back near midfield. If that's in front,

350
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: Bateman probably houses that. So that was an opportunity and

351
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: actually on the oh, I'll get to that later. Next throw,

352
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: Lamar's Lamar's arm talent once again goes through his reads.

353
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: You can tell Bateman is I don't know what number

354
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: he was on the on the reeds, there was not

355
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: one or two. And Lamar just with his feet not set,

356
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: kind of flicks the ball out to the right. It

357
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: just the arm angle, this arm strength all on display

358
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 1: on that throw.

359
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 2: Well, John Harball said he was a fifth read. Yeah,

360
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 2: so you're wondering what he was. John Harball said, he's

361
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 2: number five. Yeah, And I think that that goes to show.

362
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 3: You, like, like that just shows you Lamar's development as

363
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 3: a passer, like that he is maybe able to go

364
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 3: through his reads. Now. Credit to the offensive lines that

365
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 3: Lamar had time to go through that. But this was

366
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 3: Harball's quote, he had the wherewithal and the understanding. He's

367
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 3: good enough to get to his fifth read. That's pretty great.

368
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 3: So like the credit to the protection for giving him

369
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 3: time to go through everybody. But like that's when you

370
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 3: talk about Lamar's Like to me, I did a final

371
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 3: drive on this earlier in the week. I think that

372
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 3: Lamar to me is playing better right now than he

373
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 3: was during his twenty nineteen MVP season. Part of it

374
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 3: is the throws on the money, like we talked about,

375
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 3: especially the Cleveland game, He's like has several throws this

376
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 3: year that are just like jaw dropping kind of throws.

377
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 3: But me, his overall command of the passing game is

378
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 3: and his mastery of that is at such a higher level,

379
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,439
Speaker 3: and this is one of the many examples of it.

380
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: Completely agree. And you know, we talked a lot at

381
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: the beginning of the season about Todd Munkin empowering Lamar

382
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: Jackson and putting him, giving him the reins to this offense.

383
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: And I think that now seven weeks in, you're seeing

384
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 1: that materialize and Lamar is just it's just operating very,

385
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: very well right now.

386
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's impressive.

387
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 3: Like I just think, I just think it's his He

388
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 3: just seems to be in complete command.

389
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 2: He's got great poise.

390
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 3: I feel like he's making great decisions on when to

391
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 3: like get rid of the football, when to take off

392
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 3: and run all of it, like when to extend plays,

393
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 3: when when to try to keep a play alive, you know,

394
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 3: for ten seconds to look down the field like he

395
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 3: did against Nelson to find Nelson Aguilar.

396
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,439
Speaker 1: Well, it's funny that you say that. Very next that

397
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 1: same series, the touchdown on that series is the one

398
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: where Lamar scrambled out found Nelson Aguilar. So it's kind

399
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 1: of funny because you know, as I mentioned earlier, even

400
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 1: when things didn't really work, they still worked, and that

401
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 1: play was one of them. I think that Lamar it

402
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: seemed like, was trying to hit the Justice Hill kind

403
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: of coming out of the backfield over the middle that

404
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,880
Speaker 1: was not there. Za Flowers was there for a potential

405
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 1: touchdown on a post over the middle, and you see

406
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: Za Flowers put the old left arm up. I don't

407
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: get me, and and Lamar's eyes just didn't seem to

408
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 1: go there in his reads and so kind of an

409
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: example like he had a window there where he could

410
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:29,879
Speaker 1: have delivered that to Zay on time, and what for

411
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: whatever didn't see it, did Eisen go there, didn't like it,

412
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 1: you know, whatever passed it up. And then he's kind

413
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: of bouncing around the pass protection. This is what I'm

414
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 1: talking about, right, Like it's not drawing off this way,

415
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 1: he's bouncing around, rolls out as it was, right, And

416
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: that's just Lamar being special. Yeah, like the ability to

417
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: create when things aren't going right. You know, the second

418
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 1: play here to be able to extend that and credit

419
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: again to the pass protection. Nine point two four seconds

420
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: till from snap to delivery to then create that to

421
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 1: find Nelson Aguiler's an impressive play.

422
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 3: Should we debate whether that was drawn up that way

423
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 3: or whether that was just yacheck.

424
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: Your center's back then off the left tackles, but roll

425
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,439
Speaker 1: out to your right, got him, got him just how

426
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: I draw and drew it up perfect. So you know,

427
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 1: it's just it's just cool to see Lamar making plays

428
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 1: in different ways, right like on time throws, going through

429
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 1: your reads, special arm talent, throws off script plays. You know,

430
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 1: of course, what he does with his legs, like in

431
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 1: all facets, He's kind of checking all those boxes and

432
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,400
Speaker 1: that's what makes him so special and hard to defend.

433
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 1: All right, next next touchdown drive, there's a lot of

434
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 1: them to go through here. Pat Ricard, you know, leaking

435
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 1: out just when you think you're tired of pat Ricard

436
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: hammering you on the end of the line. Todd, Monk

437
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: and Dials went up to just have him leak out,

438
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: and Pat gets his longest reception of his career.

439
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 3: You know what's funny by that play, of course, I mean, look,

440
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 3: longest reception of his career, So props to Pat. But

441
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 3: I think we all were seeing it. We all saw it. Basically,

442
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 3: it was like this dB in the in the defensive secondary,

443
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 3: trucking down hill and you're like, all right, this is

444
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 3: where Pat lowers the shoulder and he tried to go

445
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 3: Barry Sanders mode on him and.

446
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 1: Choke him out of his shoes. I said in the

447
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: press box, way too loud, truck his butt louder than

448
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: I should have. And uh, yeah, you know, I mixed

449
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:24,719
Speaker 1: emotions on that. Mixed emotions. You know, in one regard,

450
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: would have loved to see him truck him on the second.

451
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: On the other hand, I kind of respect this spin move.

452
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: You know, he like the full back trying to spin move.

453
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: I respect it, you know. The option.

454
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, the truth.

455
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 3: The truth is like the defensive player made a good

456
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 3: play there to make to make the tackle, and like

457
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 3: I don't think that Pat was truly going to be

458
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 3: able to just truck him, Like it's not necessarily matter

459
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 3: where you can just hit the truck stick and just.

460
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 2: Like it probably wasn't.

461
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 3: But when Pat starts breaking down, spinning, juking, he looked

462
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 3: like he was trying to got is Barry Sanders moves

463
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 3: and then ends up getting brought down. So you know,

464
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 3: credit to him, you know, for the longest catch and

465
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 3: run of his career.

466
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: But another good example of Todd munkin you know, whether

467
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: it be misdirection, whether it be you know, fakes, like

468
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 1: just keeping the defense really hard for the defense, right,

469
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: Like now you have pat Rick Hard leaking out as

470
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: a receiver. It's just so hard to defend. And on

471
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: the very next snap you see some more misdirection. Right,

472
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 1: this is a Flowers coming across on the jet sweep. Nope,

473
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 1: going to Keaton Mitchell the other way right and just

474
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 1: stretching the defense horizontally, and so cool, cool play, a

475
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 1: really kind of unique, crafty play to Keaton Mitchell for

476
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,920
Speaker 1: his first NFL touch that goes for nine yards. Nice play.

477
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 3: It's it's the one thing that's disappointed, just on Keaton Mitchell,

478
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 3: just to hit him the update on him, so you know,

479
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 3: it was kind of disappointing. The Ravens are running away

480
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 3: with his game. You're thinking the third fourth quarter, like, oh,

481
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 3: be nice to get Keithon Mitchell on drafted rookie. You

482
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,360
Speaker 3: get him some clock, and he didn't really play well.

483
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,400
Speaker 3: He tweaked his hamstring, So that was the disappointing part.

484
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 3: The good news is that the update on the injury

485
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 3: front there is that it's not a long term injury.

486
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: So Harp said, probably unlikely for this week, Yeah, better

487
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: chance next week. Yeah. So yeah, that was a bummer

488
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: because that was a real opportunity that he could have

489
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:20,919
Speaker 1: gotten a lot of snaps and we could have seen it.

490
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: I would like to I'd like to see more, and

491
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 1: it was it was cool that Todd had a play

492
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 1: specifically designed for him right to kind of again stretch

493
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 1: defenses horizontally utilize that speed. And again we continue to

494
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:38,199
Speaker 1: see Za Flowers be used as a great decoy or

495
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: fake you know, on the jet sweep, kind of going

496
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 1: one way, bringing the defense that way. They have to

497
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: respect his speed and then bring heat Mitchell the other way.

498
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 1: Just a unique little twist on some of the same

499
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 1: concepts that we've seen from previous weeks. Another misdirection for

500
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: the touchdown, you know, lay the same drive that you

501
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: have a fake handoff. Everybody's moving to the to the left,

502
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 1: defense to their right, to the Ravens left, and then

503
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews leaks out. You know, Lamar keeps the ball

504
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 1: short flipped to Andrews going the other way and they

505
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: can't catch up because of the misdirection. Andrews does a

506
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: nice job finishing that play for an eleven yeard touchdown.

507
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 1: Just really, I think when we talked to Todd Munkin

508
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,719
Speaker 1: when he was hired, and he talked about the you

509
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 1: have to have misdirection, you have to have speed to

510
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: stretch defensive horizontally, every bladed grass, deception, all that kind

511
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: of stuff. You saw it all on display in this game.

512
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, And I think this was like the

513
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 3: here's here's the thing that you have to like, I

514
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 3: don't know hatge here is. On one hand, this is

515
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 3: kind of like it all comes together. This is the

516
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 3: culmination to a certain extent, you've been waiting for this

517
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,679
Speaker 3: breakout game and now everything has clicked and it's all working,

518
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 3: and this is.

519
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 2: Just what is to be expected, yep.

520
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 3: Versus like everything just kind of went right this game

521
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 3: to your point, even when and it didn't go right,

522
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:05,199
Speaker 3: it worked and knowing next week that that's not going

523
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 3: to carry over. So like there's this balance, Like what

524
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 3: is your take is this basically they figured it out,

525
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,200
Speaker 3: It is all clicked. This is they're going to be

526
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 3: operating this high level of efficiency or this was a

527
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 3: game where things really went right. They had a great

528
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,120
Speaker 3: game plan, they scheme things up well, they got out

529
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 3: to a big lead, the defense played well. We haven't

530
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 3: even got to the defense yet.

531
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 1: Basically, I think it's I think it's both. I think

532
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 1: it's both. I think that the Ravens offense is progressing.

533
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 1: I think they're growing more comfortable in Todd Munkin's system.

534
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 1: I think that it's it's just getting better. Also, you're

535
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: not going to have this high level of execution every

536
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: single game. That's a really high bar to set. That's

537
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: what you're aiming for, right, But to expect that level

538
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 1: of execution week in and week out is going to

539
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 1: be difficult, right. That's two. I think that Todd Munkett

540
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 1: a lot of Todd Munkin's play calls just hit, and

541
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 1: there's there's games where you're just fuegos of play caller

542
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: and everything's just kind of hitting. And it felt like

543
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,239
Speaker 1: one of those games also, So I think that it

544
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: can be both. They had a really good game where

545
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: everything kind of came together and it was like the

546
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: perfect game, right, And like I said, even when things

547
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: didn't work out, they still worked out. And then also

548
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: you can have incremental improvements through that, and that's really

549
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: the more important thing, right is that you're getting better

550
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 1: and better and better. And I think to what we

551
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: were talking about with Lamar Jackson, he's playing with a

552
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 1: lot of confidence and he's consistently playing well, and I

553
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 1: think that speaks to just the overall his empowerment, his

554
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: overall comfort within this offense. I think it speaks to

555
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: Toddmunkins passing game schemes and all of those things kind

556
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: of working in tandem to make this Ravens offense really dangerous.

557
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, the last plan that I'll make on it before

558
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 3: we flip it over to the defensive side. One of

559
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 3: the things that I really liked is that you're getting

560
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 3: more guys involved. So Versaw Bateman gets in on the

561
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 3: action with a couple of nice catches. Beckham Junior has

562
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 3: become more involved in the offense after dealing with the

563
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,479
Speaker 3: ankle injury earlier this season, and so you're getting some

564
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 3: of these playmakers who you've had really high hosts for

565
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 3: more involved in the action. And so that gives coordinator

566
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 3: and you're adding new wrinkles, like we talked about the

567
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 3: Lamar run and stop chopping role play whatever you call.

568
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 1: It and run and throw.

569
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 3: So you're adding some new wrinkles, and you're getting these

570
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 3: playmakers more involved in the action, and so it just

571
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 3: makes the whole thing work better and more difficult to stop.

572
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,479
Speaker 1: Yep. Two other competents I want to point to before

573
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: I'm ready to go into the defense because it's hard.

574
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: It's hard to fit the page here, to turn the page.

575
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: I think that Lamar Jackson is throwing the ball. When

576
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: you strip away the scheme and the play calls and

577
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: all that stuff, I think Lamar's just throwing the ball

578
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: really well. You know, we've always said that Lamar has

579
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: the arm talent. It's there when I watched this tape,

580
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: and there is a couple throws, one the deep out

581
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,199
Speaker 1: to Zave Flowers twenty two yard out that Lamar just

582
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 1: puts on the money, great throw, just a phenomenal throw.

583
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: The one. There's another one on that same drive to

584
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham that he feathers over a linebacker for another

585
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 1: long gain, great throw, Lamar. When I watched the tape

586
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 1: this year, there's not a throw Lamar can't make. And

587
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: I don't know that the arm talent was there in

588
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: previous years, but I don't think all the mechanics that

589
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: were around it were necessarily fully matured, right, And like

590
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: those sideline outside the numbers throws were always where we

591
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 1: had said, this is where Lamar needs to take the

592
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 1: next step as his in his growth as a passer.

593
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: And every quarterback goes through that, right and that was

594
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 1: kind of the next challenge for him. One hundred percent.

595
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: You're seeing that a twenty two yard out on the

596
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: money outside the numbers, on the sidelines as a flowers,

597
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: that's a big league throw and like I just don't

598
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: see it. He and make every throw required at this point,

599
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: and and that is that's a big deal. That's a

600
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: big deal. And then lastly, I also want to say,

601
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 1: and you saw this on the Gus Edwards to your

602
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: touch to your touchdown run. I think the other thing

603
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,640
Speaker 1: that Todd Munkin has done a really good job of

604
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 1: and we've talked a lot about the passing game, obviously

605
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 1: for good reason, but the run game, I think he's

606
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,919
Speaker 1: done a really good job of marrying the schemes that

607
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 1: Greg Roman, some of the same stuff that Greg Roman

608
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 1: had and some of those same concepts, especially with a

609
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 1: lot of pooling blockers. You know, a lot of offensive

610
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 1: line pool lineman pooling, combo blocks. You see a lot

611
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: of similarities to the run game that the Ravens had

612
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,479
Speaker 1: here previously that worked very well. You know, they had

613
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: a lot of success with those schemes. And John Harball

614
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: I think charged Todd Munkin with let's let's marry these ideas.

615
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: We don't want to lose what we had, Yeah, you know,

616
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 1: with that run game. And then Todd I think has

617
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: brought a lot of kind of unique formations. You've seen

618
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: a lot of unbalanced stuff with you know too, offensive

619
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 1: tackles on the same side, Morgan Moses coming over and

620
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: playing left tackle, left the left tackle this game on

621
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: the Gus Edwards to you o a touchout on you

622
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: see Ronnie Stanley's lined up in the slot. He's like

623
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: a slot wide receiver cracking down and really kind of

624
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: helping open up that. I think Todd Munkins added his

625
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: twists on some of the previous concepts. And it's this

626
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 1: run game looks really good too. I say, likely by

627
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 1: the way, that's best game as a blocker. Yeah. I

628
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 1: thought that was a little little note that's worth pointing out.

629
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:30,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, so props to him.

630
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:31,840

Speaker 3: United in the fight to keep our communities safer and healthier.

659
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, so obviously there's a lot to talk about with

660
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: the offense and the passing game explosion is really what

661
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: took the headlines on the day, But you can't ignore

662
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: a near shutout performance by the Ravens defense. The problem

663
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: is it's becoming kind of ho hum, right, this is

664
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 1: just kind of what you expect weekend and week out,

665
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: is the Ravens defense to shut him down. And but

666
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: you know, especially against this offense, number three in the

667
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: league coming into the game, certainly deserves some of our

668
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: time here on the pod. So the pass rush is

669
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 1: what stood out to me. Once again, you get five sacks.

670
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: The Ravens are now in sole possession of the league

671
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: lead in sacks with twenty nine, and you're seeing it

672
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: again from a variety of sources. Kyle van Ney two

673
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: sacks and kind of showed off the wide repertoire of

674
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 1: his game. The kgkg evite they called me, well, little little.

675
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 3: Tease, little Tea's we're planning to talk with Kyle this week.

676
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 3: Yeah wuch so stay tanned, Yeah for sure.

677
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 1: So it really is. His big sack was straight power

678
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: lines up outside the just the long arm, just boo

679
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: bull rushes the guy into the backfield. Straight power on

680
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: that one. And then you know, his other sack was

681
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: kind of a it was a cover sack. He ended

682
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: up chasing golf out of Allen's got that one. You'll

683
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: take that one every time as a pass rusher. But

684
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 1: another stop for no gain in the run defense, just

685
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: kind of swims the tight end really fast, showed his quickness.

686
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 1: I mean he was just almost unblocked in the backfield

687
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 1: to make a tackle for no gain. So you're seeing

688
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: the wide array of what Kyle van Noy brings to

689
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: the table.

690
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, totally the other guy too. I mean, if we're

691
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 3: talking pass rush podcast, bump, you know, just justin he

692
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 3: continues to be he continues to be dominant. Like I

693
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 3: have loved what I've seen from him, And I'll tell

694
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 3: you what. I loved his attitude when we talked to

695
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 3: him last week. I love the way he's approaching the contract.

696
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 3: I love the way that he's always trying to learn,

697
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 3: whether it's from Justin Houston or guys like Kyle van Noy,

698
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 3: Like he's an open book trying to get information. And

699
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 3: I just think that like all of that has come

700
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 3: together for him and he's having a monster season.

701
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 2: He had the one sack, he would.

702
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 3: Have had another, but golf spiked the ball right in

703
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 3: front of him because he saw Madam Beast coming down hill.

704
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:54,719
Speaker 3: It's like I'm not getting hit by hand but in

705
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 3: no parts of that. Yeah, so I'm just get rid

706
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 3: of the ball. But like so he continues and like

707
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 3: this is this is what we talked about on the

708
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 3: podcast last week. Like if you could fluster go off

709
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 3: and get pressure in his face, particularly up the middle

710
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 3: with Mattabek, then that would be difficult for them to

711
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 3: get into a rhythm. And the Ravens brought pressure not

712
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 3: just from the middle Van Noi, as you mentioned, Ada

713
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 3: Oh way back in the mix this week and gets

714
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 3: the secondafa Oa.

715
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: Had a great game. He had a really good game

716
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: in his first game back from the ankle injury. Uh again,

717
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: Lake fan Noy and and you know, credit doctor Rush,

718
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 1: doctor Rush kind of getting it done. Chuck Smith and

719
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,960
Speaker 1: the array of moves you're not just seeing. You know,

720
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 1: he talked about before the season how each guy has

721
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: to have a signature move. That's what he really wanted

722
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 1: to give each one. Well, I'm seeing multiple signatures here, right.

723
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 1: We're getting some forgery going on here because we have

724
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 1: You didn't get that one. At first. I was a

725
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: little disappointed.

726
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:48,239
Speaker 2: Wait, I wanted to give it.

727
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 3: I wanted to give it. You laughed so hard at

728
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 3: your own joke. I wanted to jump in. You wanted

729
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 3: to jump in and give me a little sympathy laugh, so.

730
00:33:55,400 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: A chuckle. We got some some forgery gone. So I thought, Adafe,

731
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 1: you know, winning with swim moves, winning with power. Just

732
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 1: a really strong game by him. And then sat with

733
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: Justin Mattabiche. His lateral quickness is hard to handle. It's

734
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: quickness to power for him, and he's he's tough to handle.

735
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: I also got to give a shout out to Mike

736
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 1: McDonald to some of the concepts that he continues to

737
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: bring with this this defense. I mean, on one play

738
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 1: you have Travis Jones and Broaderck Washington dropping into zone coverage.

739
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 3: Everyone knows that that Broddy and Travis Jones are known

740
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 3: for their ball skills and their.

741
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: Coverage skills, lockdown coverage.

742
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 2: Brody was a corner in high school.

743
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, put him on an island and that frees

744
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: up Arthur mar Mollett, you know, unblocked shot at the

745
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,280
Speaker 1: quarterback for a sack. Right, another one, Michael Pierce drops

746
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: in the coverage and now you're blitzing Marlin Humphrey and

747
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:54,879
Speaker 1: Brandon Stevens from opposite corners. Yeah. Just the creativity that

748
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: Mike McDonald continues to show getting everybody involved in this

749
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,359
Speaker 1: past rush just pretty cool.

750
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 3: You know, last week we got an email and he

751
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 3: has always you can email us to the lounge at

752
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 3: Ravens on NFL dot net. And the question was basically

753
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 3: about adding somebody at the trade deadline. I would not

754
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,400
Speaker 3: I'm not rolling that out at all. We've seen that

755
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 3: from Eric da Costa. And the question was basically, would

756
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 3: you add a pass rusher? That was an element of

757
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 3: the question, and and we debated that, kicked that around

758
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,920
Speaker 3: a little bit and I understand why there's I mean,

759
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 3: you can't have enough of them, but I've and maybe

760
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 3: the Ravens end up adding a pass rusher. We'll see,

761
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 3: But I've always kind of felt like the mid season

762
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 3: acquisition at pass rusher is going to be the guys

763
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:32,880
Speaker 3: who are getting healthy.

764
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,399
Speaker 2: It's a way and then hopefully a jabbo around the corner.

765
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 2: It's curly, and I are you.

766
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: Had late editions obviously, kyleven Noy in season edition, you

767
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: had Davian Clowney was a late edition, right, Like it

768
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 1: wasn't at the deadline, right, You had some late veteran

769
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,479
Speaker 1: additions to this pass rusher that have really worked out.

770
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

771
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 3: But I just mean, like, like the question came in

772
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 3: last week, like will they had a pass rusher? Now,

773
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 3: I'm like the pass rusher that they're adding is a

774
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,839
Speaker 3: Daffayoway who's coming back and then he makes a big impact.

775
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 1: And that's a that's a big deal. I mean know,

776
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 1: Daffioway played the most snaps of any out linebacker in

777
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 1: Sunday's game for the Ravens.

778
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he was a force, big deal even force.

779
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I really think he played really well Week

780
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,359
Speaker 1: one against the Texans, didn't get a sack that day,

781
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,879
Speaker 1: but a number of pressures and then to come back

782
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:15,839
Speaker 1: get the sack and force fumble by the way on

783
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,360
Speaker 1: that play, uh and he had another one that just

784
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: on Justin Mattabiche sacked where Oway was a fraction of

785
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 1: a second behind now and he had he had Pinice

786
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: Sewell turned around, I mean he had him spinning, and

787
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 1: so I thought it was it was a really strong game,

788
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: first game back for a dafaway and shows to your

789
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 1: point like maybe they don't need to add a pass

790
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 1: rusher at the deadline. If they're going to add somebody

791
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 1: the deadline, I think it's seeing what I'm seeing from

792
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 1: the Ravens pass rush in recent weeks and O'daffioway coming back,

793
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 1: I think it's more likely a running back if they're

794
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: going to make a move.

795
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:50,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

796
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 3: I mentioned the the lounge at Ravens at NFL dot net.

797
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 3: Our email this is a fun what we got from

798
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,839
Speaker 3: Sydney H. Sidney wrote it was my worst nightmare. I'm

799
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 3: on call. I work as a nurse at children's hop

800
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 3: sold in Delaware. The Ravens play at one o'clock. My

801
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 3: phone goes off at twelve thirty five, I was already

802
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 3: anxious and that we were playing the big bad Lions,

803
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 3: and I knew I was gonna have a horrible day

804
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:10,320
Speaker 3: if we didn't play well and I had to be

805
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 3: at work. I would kind of think that would be

806
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,280
Speaker 3: He's like, you just missed the game to now, yeah, exactly,

807
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 3: but she said no. But thankfully, by the time I

808
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 3: got to a patient that that fourteen oh lead was

809
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 3: alive and well and just kept getting better and better

810
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,720
Speaker 3: from there. So thank you Ravens for a lovely Sunday,

811
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,760
Speaker 3: and thank you to my coworkers that understand that Ravens

812
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 3: audio was getting played from the nurses station for three

813
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,360
Speaker 3: and a half hours. So Sidney, we appreciate you tuning

814
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,399
Speaker 3: into the game from the nurses station and uh being

815
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 3: able to cheer on your Ravens from a distance.

816
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,319
Speaker 1: That's pretty great, all right. So we broke down the

817
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:42,880
Speaker 1: tape and this is where we got to do our

818
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,879
Speaker 1: no the do I don't know who you're gonna pick.

819
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 2: There's plenty of them.

820
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 1: You know what. I'm going outside the box a little bit.

821
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 1: This week. We're giving the Doe of the Week to

822
00:37:55,160 --> 00:38:00,919
Speaker 1: Todd Mounkin. The do sometimes the dogs in the mood

823
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: I was still calling the shots, barking from up top.

824
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 1: Baby he was.

825
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:10,760
Speaker 2: You see the video.

826
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:12,879
Speaker 3: You know, someone went to give him the fist bump

827
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 3: and he just was like he was barking up there.

828
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: Oh, full high five on the fist bump. Yeah, you

829
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 1: know he didn't care. Yeah, he didn't care. Yeah. I

830
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 1: love the Todd munkin Cam. Some more Monk and Cam.

831
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:23,240
Speaker 2: Oh it was awesome.

832
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, in all, honestly, I was really happy for him,

833
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 3: love that he got the game ball, love the way

834
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 3: this offense looks. And uh, I just think he's been

835
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 3: He's been great. I've been I've been through with Monken.

836
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 3: I think he's a great guy, great coach, and so

837
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 3: very fitting Dog of the week.

838
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: Yep. You talk about the postgame locker room speech, you know,

839
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: which sometimes you have to edit those. Do you think

840
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,240
Speaker 1: there is any editing of any language with with Monkin?

841
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 3: Well, Ronnie Stanley someone asked him, like, I heard he

842
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,720
Speaker 3: kind of said some colorful things in that press conference

843
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 3: or in that in that uh locker room speech, in

844
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:53,879
Speaker 3: that speech, and Ronnie was like, yeah, he just likes

845
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 3: to say the F word.

846
00:38:54,680 --> 00:39:00,920
Speaker 1: So pretty great. All right, So broke down the tape

847
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 1: real quick here. You know, Lamar's back in the MVP conversation. Yeah,

848
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 1: I think rightfully, so, you know, after everything we talked

849
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: about would not surprise me. I mean two was playing

850
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:15,840
Speaker 1: a really good ball. There's Mahmes obviously in the Jalen Hurts,

851
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,799
Speaker 1: but I think Lamar is going to be right up

852
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 1: there at the end of the day when all is

853
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: said and done.

854
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is like the week and to be honest,

855
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 3: you know, this is where the Ravens have to keep

856
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 3: it rolling because the crazy thing is, honestly, if you

857
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 3: go back through the season and you look at the

858
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,920
Speaker 3: teams who have kind of been call it anointed on

859
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 3: a week to week basis, a lot of them have

860
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 3: had letdowns. I mean the Lions were kind of that

861
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 3: team coming into this one. The Cowboys were that team

862
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 3: at one point, the forty nine Ers were that team.

863
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 3: The just Dolphins, but even yeah, but that was a

864
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:44,799
Speaker 3: that was a they were playing one of the other

865
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,359
Speaker 3: best teams. The Dolphins also lost previously after putting up

866
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 3: fifty points, you know, and again the forty nine Ers

867
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:51,399
Speaker 3: lost to the Browns when they.

868
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 1: Had quarterback Bills.

869
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 3: The Bills have been that the Bills have been that case,

870
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 3: been that team, The Cowboys have been that team. So,

871
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 3: like all, what I'm saying is it's great right now.

872
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 3: But the Ravens and I honestly do like the tone

873
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 3: of this team that like they feel like like it

874
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 3: was great, it was fun, it was a big win,

875
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 3: but they are not celebrating Papa Champagne like they know

876
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 3: that there's a lot of work.

877
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 1: To be the there there's been a It was definitely

878
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 1: a muted celebration and a quick turning of the page. Yes,

879
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,879
Speaker 1: because as good as that win was, if you drop one,

880
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: you know, the Lions had one win or one loss

881
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 1: coming into this game, Well, the Cardinals have one win.

882
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 1: But if you drop this one to the Cardinals, it

883
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,720
Speaker 1: totally wipes away all the good vibes that we're feeling

884
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 1: in Baltimore right now. Yep.

885
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 3: So, and that was I definitely think the tone both

886
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 3: postgame and then again on Monday with John Harba when

887
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:41,160
