Yep, today, So what's what's 26 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 2: the date here. 27 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: Today? Twenty twenty three. That's when the Ravens put it 28 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: all together. 29 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 2: They put it all together. Offense was great, defense was great. Man, 30 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 2: that was fun. 31 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: That was fun. Yeah. I mean, look, I feel like 32 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: I've been saying this all right, let me have my 33 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 1: moment here. Am I not right that I've been saying 34 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: all along? That I feel like this team can be 35 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: really really good, Like once you put it together on offense, 36 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: and the talent's been there from the beginning, right, you 37 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: have the talent offensively, once they put it together combined 38 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: with this defense, which I've been saying is extremely legit. 39 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: You've been the only one saying the defense is good. 40 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 2: But how did you come home with that one? 41 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: Say? Did you come up with them saying? With the 42 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: two parter? I've been saying, like, I really felt like 43 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: in my gut that this team could be something special. 44 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: I just have felt that consistently, even went through the 45 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: bad losses. It's like, yeah, drops kill them in one game, yup, fumbles, 46 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: sloppy turnovers killed them in another loss. Right, red zone 47 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: issues this week. Sure, but like I've just felt deep 48 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: down that this can still be a special team once 49 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: they kind of get rid of some of these bugaboos, right, Like, 50 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: to me, none of that stuff was a death sentence. Like, sure, 51 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: it was a one game thing and it wasn't like 52 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: a trend that we saw. And I just felt like 53 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 1: this team had the potential all along once they got 54 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: it together on offense, which we said it was gonna 55 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: take some time with Toddmunkin, right, it was gonna take 56 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: a little time. And golly, the time is here and 57 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: I just want I just want my eye told you so, moment, 58 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: just give it, Just. 59 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: Give it to me while you're trying to gloat here. 60 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 2: How confident were you before kickoff? Oh that's a great Yeah, yeah, 61 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 2: not so much, just because we were trying to talk 62 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 2: about I want my I told you so, I want 63 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 2: to step an eye pedestal. It was a different story 64 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 2: about four hours ago, folks. 65 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: Right now, No, no, all right, look, my nerves got 66 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: to me this one. But consistently all season long, I've said, 67 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,679 Speaker 1: like I felt like this team could be special, and 68 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: that's what today is all about, right, Like, look, it's 69 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: still a week to week league. Like that's what I 70 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: felt like. I was riding the elevator down with some 71 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: Lions I don't know, with their scouts or whatever, some personnel, 72 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: and of course why heads down tail talk between the legs, 73 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: and I wanted to almost, you know, I want to 74 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: be like, man, it's a week's week league. 75 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 2: Man, you want to courage. 76 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 1: I kind of fell for him in that moment. The 77 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: empathy was really getting to me. And I want to 78 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: be like, you know what, guys, like, you're a good team, 79 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: Like you're gonna bounce back. It's a week to week league. 80 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: And and what this to me? You know, this isn't 81 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: winning the super Bowl, right, it's it's to size them up. 82 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: But you know we haven't gotten the call yeteh. Right. 83 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: And but what it tells me is what this capable 84 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: this team is capable of. Right, you you put that 85 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: performance out there. You know what, I won't say the 86 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: ceiling because I think it could be even better. Right, 87 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: there was one turnover, there's one plummish but like you 88 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: now know you've seen it with your two eyes what 89 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: the Ravens can be, and it is they can be 90 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: a team that beats anybody that's what after seeing this, 91 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: you can't say, give me any team they can beat 92 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: them all. Why. 93 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 2: I think the Ravens proved today that they're one of 94 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: the best teams in the league. They're a legitimate and tender. 95 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 2: They are going to be in this fight all the 96 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 2: way to the end. But a couple of things like 97 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 2: while we're over here celebrating talking about size him up, 98 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: and you're trying to have your moment, Like, honestly, the 99 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 2: tenor in the locker room and from those who took 100 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 2: the podium was not as celebratory as this room right now. 101 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 2: Like Lamar Jackson took the podium and his like his 102 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: energy was like he was low, he was got a 103 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: quiet and he basically made the point that like, we 104 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 2: just feel like there's a lot more that we can 105 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 2: do even better. Mark. 106 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: And just because they didn't feel good about the performance, 107 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: I think they did. I do think that they're like, 108 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: you know, this is expected better, But I think it 109 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: was really because it was a runaway from I mean, 110 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: the game was over in the second quarterball I think 111 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: I for the second half practically the game was well, 112 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: you think they didn't like no back if they had 113 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: been down right and they came back and put up 114 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: thirty eight points. He went thirty eight to thirty five 115 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: with a walk off touchdown with two minutes left. It 116 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: would have been exuberant. 117 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 2: I don't think that's honestly what it is he was. 118 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 2: I think that basically Lamar felt like, now, every guy's 119 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: a little bit different, but I think for Lamar, he 120 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 2: felt like, this is what they should do every week, 121 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 2: and so he's not going to sit here and celebrate 122 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 2: too much that like, oh my gosh, we beat a 123 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 2: good team. We want a tough game. Like he's like, 124 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: this is what we should be doing. This is no, 125 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 2: this is nothing to go crazy about. That's that's what 126 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 2: I think. 127 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: I think there's an element of that. I'm just saying, 128 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: like the game, the game was over in the second quarter, 129 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: maybe the first, right, and. 130 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 2: So like you think they lost energy? 131 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: No, no, like you gotta lose some of the juice 132 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: post game, you know, you blew him out. 133 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 2: You just I don't. 134 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: I know. 135 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 2: I really think Lamar was in some ways. I honestly 136 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 2: think he was maybe trying to kind of set a 137 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 2: tone that this is this is what is expected. And 138 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 2: he also made the lar that look, it's a regular 139 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 2: season game. His mindset is that this is something that's 140 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 2: got to continue throughout the entire year. It's got to 141 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 2: go to the playoffs, and that he's basically he was 142 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 2: not popping the champagne in the locker room, and that 143 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 2: I think that he was not trying to pop the 144 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 2: champagne in the locker room, and I think that he was. 145 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 2: He kind of wanted that to be the message, is 146 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: what I took away in hearing from him. I also 147 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 2: think that this game, broadly speaking, it reminded me a 148 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 2: lot of the game against the Chargers in twenty nineteen. 149 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 2: Twenty one. Yeah, years kind of get classes. 150 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: It reminded me a lot of a twenty nineteen game. 151 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 2: He did feel like, yeah, it felt like a twenty 152 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 2: nineteen game. You know that game in twenty twenty one. 153 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 2: The Chargers came here, they were a really good team. 154 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 2: It was kind of built as one of the you know, 155 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: this could be a potential playoff matchup. These are two 156 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 2: of the top teams, the best young quarterbacks, and the 157 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: Ravens dominated them, just dominated them, And this was reminiscent 158 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 2: of that game. 159 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: I'll say it felt more like twenty nineteen. They just 160 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: boat race them just got out on top. You know, 161 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 1: you win the coin toss, take the ball. Yeah, I'll 162 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: start with it. Then you just go down the field. 163 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: I mean the Ravens scored on four straight drives, touchdowns 164 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: on four straight drives, right, and then from there it 165 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: was just the route was on right. I Mean, what 166 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: I think is also commendable about this, just big picture wise, 167 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: is how fast the Ravens have been able to correct 168 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: some of their bugaboos, right, And that's what you have 169 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: to do to be a good team in this league. 170 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: You have to make quick corrections. Right. They had all 171 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: the drops in Pittsburgh, they had zero drops a week following. Okay, 172 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: red zone troubles in London. This week, you start out, 173 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: you go four for your first four, and you go 174 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: five to six overall. Right, pretty darn good. I think 175 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: they'll shoot up the rankings after that one. Right. That's 176 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: what you have to do to be a really good 177 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: team in this league. And I think it's a good 178 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: sign that you know, they're able to kind of correct 179 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: some of their issues quickly. 180 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was. I'm with you on that. 181 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: I mean, I think the correcting those things and like 182 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 2: we both said, this really for both those games, Like 183 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 2: the drops weren't an issue until they became one in Pittsburgh. 184 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 2: It's not like they were problem every single games. They 185 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: had one game, you. 186 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: Said, zero drops before that game, and they. 187 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 2: Had one game where it was a disaster on that front. 188 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 2: But it's not like that was a trend the red zone. 189 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 2: Three weeks ago, it was like, man, you guys are 190 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 2: the best red zone team. Every time you get down there, 191 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 2: you score. And then all of a sudden, two games 192 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: that where that wasn't the case, and then we spent 193 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 2: all week. 194 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: Talking about it like, oh my gosh, it in the reds. 195 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 2: Gus Edwards actually, you know, this week basically made that point. 196 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 2: He was like, yeah, what's up with this? You guys? 197 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 2: Like two weeks ago you were asking us about how 198 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 2: great we are in the red zone, and now you're 199 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 2: asking us why we can't do anything like. 200 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's fine, including a game in the red zone 201 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: where you had to drop two touches just sure file touchdown, 202 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: surefire touchdowns in your hands, right, Like. 203 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought, yeah, I thought. I also thought, like 204 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 2: from a I don't know statement standpoint, like taking the 205 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 2: ball just so listeners understand, John Harpwell said, the reason 206 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 2: they took the ball and they won the coin tosses, 207 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 2: they wanted to be able to dictate the direction with 208 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 2: the win. It was windy out there today, so that 209 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 2: was why they took the ball there. 210 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, that didn't play into the storyline. 211 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: I really it was like, wait, can you say that again? 212 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 2: You just say that like you wanted to be a 213 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 2: tone setter. 214 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, you just changed that answer for me, be 215 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: nice for my story. 216 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 2: But but it was. But then they went for it 217 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 2: on fourth down on that opening drive. Ye, and just 218 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 2: like the one really creative play Ronnie Stanley he might 219 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 2: still be blocking that dude. I mean he put him 220 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 2: out on you know, Russell Avenue and so he great 221 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: play by Ronnie in great play call, and obviously Lamar 222 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: did the rest. But I thought going forward in that 223 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 2: situation was an aggressive move and it paid paid off 224 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 2: for the Ravens in a big way, and it really 225 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 2: did set the tone for the game. It's like, okay, 226 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 2: red zone, red zone, red zone? Are you are you 227 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: gonna finish down there? Are you gonna get touchdowns down there? 228 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: Opening drive? You go for it on fourth down and 229 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 2: then you punch it in I just thought that like that, Really, 230 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 2: I think it set the tone for the game. 231 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think big picture that the story of this 232 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: game was the off putting it all together after weeks 233 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: of inconsistencies or drag is Todd Munkin, it's like to 234 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 1: go on, there's no drag in this game. They were 235 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 1: it was lifted off, right. Uh, let's talk about Lamar 236 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: Jackson though. I mean twenty one of twenty seven for 237 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty seven yards, three passing touchdowns and 238 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: one rushing touchdown, one on fourth and one. Like you're 239 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: talking about how many times do you want to say 240 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: this is his best game? Yeah? Do you want? You 241 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: know you've said it three times this year? You want 242 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna quadruple down? What are you gonna go with here? 243 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 2: John Harbaugh told a story after the game that where 244 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 2: he said, after every win, his dad text him. He says, 245 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 2: that was your best win ever. And that's what I've 246 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 2: kind of been saying with Lamar basically, avers win the 247 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 2: game this year, that was his best game ever. Maybe 248 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 2: he was he was awesome. He was awesome. I thought 249 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,599 Speaker 2: his command of the offense, both from a passing and 250 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: a running standpoint he just was in complete control of 251 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 2: that game, and we saw the impact of it. I 252 00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 2: thought it might have been his best game. It really 253 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: might have been. 254 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I completely agree, a fantastic game. I think what 255 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: differentiates this game from let's say the Cleveland game right 256 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: where he threw some passes that were just dots, right, 257 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: like just several phenomenal probably had a ten percent chance, 258 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: you know or whatever of being completed. Right this game, 259 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: there there isn't a specific throw. Maybe the deep out 260 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: to Zay Flowers for a twenty two yard game was 261 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: that was a great throw. But there wasn't like one 262 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: specific throw that I can point to for Lamar and say, wow, 263 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: heck of a throw, right, Yeah, yeah, I think I 264 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: want to point to two things. I think the Todd 265 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: Munkin was in his bag. Yeah, today he was in 266 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: his bag. You saw the tempo, You saw just the 267 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: balance of the offense. I mean they were almost perfectly 268 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: balanced today. They had twenty eight passes, twenty seven rushes. 269 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 2: Right, some of that is end of game? Sure, Sure, 270 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 2: I would say it's skewed, heavier pass early on. 271 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: Sure, Yeah, I mean they were passed. I don't think 272 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,439 Speaker 1: there's a whole lot of that, but yeah, I think 273 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: it was pretty well balanced, and we saw some wrinkles 274 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: and one I want to point to that I thought 275 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: was really interesting. On several key plays, Lamar kind of 276 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: tucked the ball, looked like he was gonna it was 277 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,839 Speaker 1: a quarterback run. Then he pops up and throws. I'm 278 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 1: gonna name this the tuck run and throw. It's like, 279 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: stop dropping roll. This is the Lamar tough run and throw. 280 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 2: I like that. 281 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: You like that? 282 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't like most of your things, and you 283 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 2: try to call the creative name like that, but I 284 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 2: like that one. 285 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: I'm trademarking that one. If this becomes a thing, it's 286 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: going on a T shirt. 287 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 2: And I swear to God, you want you want to get, 288 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 2: I better get my royalties. 289 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: That's right, I better get my royalties. The tuck run 290 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: and throw it was. I thought it's brilliant, right because 291 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Lamar, when he tucks the ball, you have 292 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: he's the best running quarterback ever. You have to respect that. 293 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: You have to crash down on that. That's where everybody's 294 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: eyes are. And for him to get out on the 295 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: perimeter and then pop up and whoop, you got a 296 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: guy wide open, like that's unstoppable. 297 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 2: So the ones where a couple of plays where it happened. 298 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 2: One was the eighty yarder to Gus Edwards and then 299 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 2: one early everyone collapse down all of a sudden, Gus 300 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 2: catches the ball and was like whoa. He turns around, 301 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: He's like, that is a lot of green grass in 302 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 2: front of me. Obj It happened on that one as 303 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 2: first drive. 304 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, of the game. 305 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 2: It was pretty and and Lamar executed it perfectly. You've 306 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 2: seen that at times. It kind of reminds me a 307 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 2: little bit of like the jump pass, you know that you. 308 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: Know what play it was the Cleveland one after he 309 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 1: went to the locker room and he came back through 310 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: a game through the game winner to Marquis Brown. 311 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't think that that one just that 312 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 2: wasn't like a schemed up one. I think he just 313 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 2: was running on that play. 314 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: Maybe he was like WHOA wide open? And Lamar was 315 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: kind of funny after the game, you know, you was asked, 316 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 1: was that a new wriggle? What was that? And he 317 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 1: kind of was like, yeah, yeah, we'll get We'll give 318 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 1: credit to Todd on that. You know. So it's kind 319 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 1: of unclear it's it's a little bit unclear as to 320 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: whether that's Lamar Lamar magic, you know, as we've often 321 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: referred to, or whether that was the play design, And 322 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,199 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe the Ravens want to keep it vague. 323 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: I think there's benefits of keeping it vague. I mean, 324 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 2: I think that you know, you don't want to just 325 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 2: unveil your tricks and magician revealing his tricks. But yeah, 326 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 2: I think whether it was designed or whether it was 327 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 2: improv it worked, and I think that will probably see 328 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 2: more of it in the future. 329 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: Well, I'll break that down certainly in my film review 330 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: this week, check out Raven's I view this week, and 331 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: then of course we have the follow up film breakdown podcast, 332 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: so we'll come back. We'll look at that one on 333 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: Tate and tell you what we what we take, what 334 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: we think from the All twenty two. Another thing I 335 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: want to point to that I think helped Lamar a 336 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: lot in this game, and I want to make it 337 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: very clear. I think Lamar played amazing, right. I think 338 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: he also had excellent protection. Line was great, the offensive 339 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: line was awesome. He wasn't sacked all day, he took 340 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: one quarterback hit. I mean some of that. It was 341 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: just Lamar in the pocket, dance around guys, eluding pressure. 342 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: He was his mo in the pocket was elite to. 343 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 2: Like the Nelson Aguilar play. Now he was kind of 344 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 2: all over the coast. 345 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: That was incredible. You know. 346 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: He had nine and a half seconds to throw on that, Yeah, 347 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 2: and now he created about you know, six of those 348 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 2: seconds whatever and he ended up len delivery. I mean 349 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 2: that that that looked like and you've said it with 350 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 2: him all throughout his career, like backyard football type. That 351 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: looked just like, all right, let me just run around here, 352 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 2: and everyone's just kind of running chaotically and somebody's gonna 353 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 2: spring open. And that's what happened. 354 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: Yep. The Lions were up to nine Mississippi on that one. 355 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: Yea yeah, can we rush yet? 356 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 2: Yeah? 357 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: Are we still? Yeah? Yeah, that play was incredible. I 358 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: mean yeah, so a lot of credit for the protection 359 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: and the lack of saxon all that that goes to Lamar. 360 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: But I do think the offensive line had a really 361 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: strong day against a very good Lions defensive front as well. 362 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 2: And yeah, I agree with I thought Ronnie had a 363 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 2: great game. You know, he's going up against Aiden Hutchinson. 364 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 2: You know, that's a tough assignment there, And yeah, I 365 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 2: thought it was. I think Ronnie is after dealing with 366 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 2: the knee injury, like he's he's looking more and more 367 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 2: like himself to me. 368 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: Paspro was really good last week as well. 369 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so I think that's that is really like 370 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 2: just a big picture like that's encouraging that, like the 371 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 2: line is healthy and you got your tackles back and 372 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 2: they're playing at a high level. 373 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: Well, we were talking about champagne earlier and I mean, 374 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: do we have to pop some from Mark Andrews on 375 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: National tight Ends Day? You know too? 376 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 2: He was great. You know, it's funny he was asked 377 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 2: about Nationals tight Ends Day and he was kind of like, yeah. 378 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, he didn't really play into that. Yeah, I mean 379 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: his answer was fantastic. You talked about a little kid 380 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: that's been dealing with adversity and overcoming that, and the 381 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: kid came out to practice this week and he and 382 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: Mark shared a great moment. It was really touching. 383 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 2: And he actually wears a bracelet they made years ago 384 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 2: and he gave Mark a bracelet and he was at 385 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 2: practice as you know, make a wish on Friday and 386 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 2: he was here today, him and his family were here today, 387 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 2: and Mark basically dedicated the game to him, which is 388 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 2: pretty powerful. And I think that that meant a lot 389 00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 2: to Mark. 390 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. And last but not least offensively, Gus 391 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: Edwards's got to give them. I mean, you had an 392 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: eighty r catch and run. That's that has to be 393 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: the longest August's career. Yeah, and uh, I thought he 394 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: you know, the run game was really strong a end. 395 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: You know, they had the one fundball in the exchange 396 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 1: between Lamar and Justice Hill, which was really, like we said, 397 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: the only kind of down note of the day. But 398 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: Gus Edwards is running really well. You know, if they 399 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: can keep this this ground game balance with the passing game, 400 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: it's going to be tough to stop. 401 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what you wanted to see. I think you 402 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 2: know that that fumble like I'm not gonna let it, 403 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 2: like I'm not gonna ran on the parade here. But 404 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 2: that is something that Raves got to clean up. They've 405 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 2: had They've had too many funnels, yep, just in general, 406 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 2: and then that stuff is on some of the exchanges. 407 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 2: It's been sloppy at times. 408 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: We just won thirty eight to six. I'm gonna give 409 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: you the big point on this raining on my parade. 410 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 1: All Right, I'm not you know what you could say, 411 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,479 Speaker 1: You're not you know what I mean. 412 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm like Lamar Jackson, you know, I'm looking 413 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 2: for ways to get better. I'm looking for opportunities. 414 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 1: When John Harbought, I want to size him up Monday 415 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 1: slash Sunday. 416 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 2: When when John Harbaught walked to the podium after the game, 417 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 2: it was pretty funny. He said, you talking about Mark Andrews. 418 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 2: He's like, how many touchdowns do you have today? 419 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 1: And so on? 420 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 2: I think you know too? It was like, yeah too. 421 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 2: He's like, I felt like more. And then Mark pipes out, 422 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 2: pipes up from his chair next to the podium. He's like, 423 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 2: it should have been. 424 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,479 Speaker 1: More exactly, but I think that, Like it was just 425 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: like just funny. Yeah, it was good. 426 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 2: But that's how I am now. I'm like Mark, I'm 427 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 2: like Lamar. I'm always looking for ways to improve. 428 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: I respect that, Garrett. I respect that.

But yes, defensively, yeah, 450 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 1: I mean I think that there is a lot of 451 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 1: talk about we all knew the Ravens defense was really good, right, 452 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 1: And I think outside of Baltimore it was kind of like, well, 453 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: how good? Who have you faced? Right? Yeah, Joe Burrs 454 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 1: kind of hobbled. The Steelers offense is struggled. You got 455 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 1: a couple backup quarterbacks, you got Gardner Minshew. You know, 456 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 1: you had the rookie in Cleveland, you had CJ. Stroud 457 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: in week one in his first ever game, Like, have 458 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: you done it against a really good quarterback and a 459 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: really good offense? Check and check right, Like, this was 460 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: a dominant performance against an offense that was clicking coming 461 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: into this game with plenty of weapons, a veteran quarterback 462 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: who is very on rhythm, you know, has been playing 463 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: as one of the best quarterbacks in the league, and 464 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: the Ravens just absolutely dominated him. Five sacks, eight quarterback hits. 465 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: Jared Goff was just throwing the ball into the turf 466 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: like the pressure was some of those some of those 467 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: intentional groundings were the most intentional grounding. They were the 468 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: most intentional intentional groundings I've ever seen in my life. 469 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: I Mean, he was just like, nah, I'm out boom 470 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: spike it. Yeah. It was the Ravens defense. You know, 471 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 1: they've they've known what they had all along in this 472 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,880 Speaker 1: locker room, and they've been unabashedly telling everybody. And then 473 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,479 Speaker 1: after the game, Rokwan Smith says, yeah, we don't have 474 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: a flaw. You know, there is no weakness in this defense. 475 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: And I loved his his quote about what he told 476 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: the team before the game. This is classical. We had 477 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: Tarrell Suggs in the building. This was Terrell Suggs asked 478 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: the speech. I love what Rokwan Smith told the team. 479 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: You know, Terrell Suggs is in the building. This was 480 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: very sugs ass.

You know, they say it 483 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 3: was lions, they're coming to the bank. You know it 484 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 3: wasn't a Dean and a nutshell. And then you know, 485 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 3: I talked to the team security and everyone, and I 486 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 3: told him locked the doors, you know, and we'll decought 487 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: when we want to let them out. And I think 488 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 3: we did it accordingly. 489 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: You gotta love that from rokn I mean, you see, 490 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: you see the energy that this guy plays with, and 491 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: you see how good he is at fired up his team. 492 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, that's just how Roquon's operated.

The other thing he said, 495 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 2: you know, when asked about this is a great offense 496 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 2: going up as against your defense, he was like, I 497 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 2: believe I told you guys earlier in the week, I'm 498 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: in the show me business.

I think he has set 502 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,360 Speaker 2: the tone honestly, like we adjust him out of BK. 503 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 2: By the way, friend Lounge podcast. 504 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 1: Bumped today, lunch yep, big podcast, Big podcast Bump got 505 00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 1: a sack.

So five and a half under the head two. 509 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: That was one of those intentional ground I know, I know. 510 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 2: And uh, you know he said the same thing on 511 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 2: the podcast when I asked him the question about basically 512 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 2: going up against one of the best offenses, and he's like, 513 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to show me. And you know, I 514 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 2: ran into him coming off the field and and I 515 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 2: was like, you called it, and he said I told you, 516 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 2: I told you, and I think that like that is 517 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,239 Speaker 2: the mentality of this defense, Patrick Queen, just to keep 518 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 2: running down the list here, like Patrick Queen said the 519 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 2: same thing, like we knew that they were a good offense, 520 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 2: but they hadn't faced our defense exactly. That's it. That's 521 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 2: the mentality of this defense. 522 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: This defense has one hundred percent has a swagger about it. Yes, 523 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: you know this is you talk about and you know 524 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 1: we're not sitting here gonna say that the two thousand defense, 525 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: but you talk about some of the greatest defense of 526 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 1: all time, and specifically that two thousand defense. You got 527 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: to have a swagger and you one hundred percent feel 528 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 1: it with this defense. And it's it's and it's they're 529 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: backing it up right, it's not talk and and they're 530 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: doing it in all phases. The pass rush is clicking. 531 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: They came into the league, into the game tied to 532 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: top of the league with twenty four sacks. They're probably 533 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: going to be number one in the league after this week. 534 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: They're tied with Buffalo. I don't know how many sacks 535 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: they had in their game this week, but five for 536 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: the Ravens today is probably going to put them the 537 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: top of the league and then the secondary. I mean 538 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: Jared Goff threw the ball fifty three times, yeah, for 539 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 1: two or eighty four yards. 540 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 2: Yeah right. 541 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,679 Speaker 1: I mean he completed thirty three and fifty thy passes. 542 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: He had twenty incompletions today. Twenty incompletions. That's a crazy number. 543 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: So they're getting it done on the front of the 544 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: front defensive line. They're getting done on the back end. 545 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: It's just to Roque's point, I don't see a flaw 546 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: right now in this Ravens defense. 547 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 2: I don't either, Like, I mean, really the crazy thing 548 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 2: is and it's kind of funny, Like we got a 549 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 2: question as always, you can email us at the lounge 550 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 2: at Ravens dot NFL died now. We got a question 551 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 2: last week about, you know, whether the Ravens can make 552 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 2: a trade at the deadline. And this is people have 553 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: been asking, like, go get an edge, could you go 554 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 2: get an edge? And I you know, we discussed this 555 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 2: a little bit on the Matta BK Pot and I'm 556 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 2: at the point like do you need to go get 557 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,479 Speaker 2: an edge? Like sure, it's always nice to have him. 558 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: Can't have too many guys. You have to passer, but 559 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 2: you know, the Ravens pass rush is bringing it. They're 560 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 2: a really good pass rush. 561 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: By the way, the Bill's got one sack today against 562 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 1: the Patriots, so you're looking at your new sack leaders 563 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: unless somebody puts up twenty sacks on. 564 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 2: A little bit here right right. Yeah, So they can 565 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 2: get after the quarterback. Matta BK can do it, Clowny 566 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 2: can do it, Queen can do it, Malette can do it. 567 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 2: You know, like they can do it from a variety 568 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,239 Speaker 2: of different places. But it's part skiing, part player. Van 569 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 2: Ney had two today, yep. So like they can get 570 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 2: after the quarterbacks. So and when you and when you 571 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 2: can when you can turn up the heat like that. Like, 572 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 2: I just think it's really hard for these quarterbacks to 573 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: get kind of settled. Like it's hard when you've got 574 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 2: Matta BK coming up the middle terrorizing you. It's just difficult. 575 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: On top of the intentional groundings. I mean you saw 576 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 1: Geno Stones interception, right, I mean that was pressured and 577 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: he just basically just kind of duck duck and throw, 578 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: you know, it was just launched it down the middle 579 00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: of the field, and Genius Stone gets an easy interception 580 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: in the end zon fourth talk about league leaders. You know, 581 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: Ston for interception league interceptions leads the NFL, so that 582 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: d he's making some money this year too. Yeah, I 583 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: completely agree with you. I mean it's really hard to 584 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: know how you to figure out how you attack this 585 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: Ravens defense right now. And you know, we gave credit 586 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: Todd Mounkin, who got a game ball after this game. 587 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: Big game for Monk, and I think another really strong 588 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: performance from Mike McDonald and and to Harve's Harves's point, 589 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: give the players the credit players deserve it. 590 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, totally, I think this defense is great. I mean 591 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 2: we said even during the game, like look at Brandon Stevens, 592 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 2: another friend of the lounge. Okay, yep, a lot of friends, 593 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 2: got a lot of friends, a crowded it's a crowded 594 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 2: place in the lounge. But Brandon Stevens is another guy 595 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 2: who I don't think anybody had paid as a starting 596 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 2: corner coming into this season, you know, just to you know, 597 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 2: the Ravens let Marcus Peters walk. They they went and 598 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 2: got rocky scene in Ronald Darby and then marlinus hurt. 599 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 2: Brandon steven steps into the starting lineup. He plays so 600 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 2: well that when Marley comes back. It's like, oh, Brandon 601 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 2: Stevens is legitimate. This guy earned a starting spot over 602 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 2: the course of how he played in training camp and 603 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 2: even more, go back to like the spring, it was like, yeah, 604 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 2: this guy's, you know, is a safety. He's probably not 605 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 2: gonna play much corner. He goes back to corner. He's 606 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 2: planning at a high level as the starting cornerback. 607 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: I like. 608 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 2: And so just throughout this defense, I mean Genostone, you 609 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 2: mentioned him, Marcus Williams, your big time safety, goes down. Okay, well, 610 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 2: Genostone steps into the lineup and leads the NFL in interceptions. 611 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 2: We already know they have great linebackers. 612 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: Okay, I have that one on my bingo card. 613 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 2: They did not have Genostone leading the NFL in interceptions. Okay. 614 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 2: Up front, Oh, are they gonna be able to get 615 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 2: out to the passer. There's not a dominant pass rusher 616 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 2: on this team. Oway gets hurt, a job O gets hurt. Okay, 617 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:45,880 Speaker 2: now they lead the NFL in sacks, Like, I don't 618 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,920 Speaker 2: see a weakness on the defense. I'm with Roque, I 619 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 2: completely agree. 620 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, and O way a good return. He got a 621 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 1: sack today, So you know you're getting healthier. You're getting 622 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 1: in these role players your point are stepping up into 623 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: big time positions, right and and just the playing time 624 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 1: that those guys got while others were injured made them 625 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: a better player. So all things are clicking defensively for 626 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: the Ravens end today it was all clicking offensively. So 627 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: Ravens fans make sure you soak this one up. Thirty 628 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: eight to six. This is a day to remember totally. 629 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 2: And it was also a day to remember for Terrell Suggs. Yep, 630 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 2: I don't want to end here without mentioning Terrell Suggs. 631 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 2: He went into the Ravens Ring of Honor, gave a 632 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 2: very Suggs esque you know, a Ring of honor speech 633 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 2: where he talked, you know, ended up with balls Hard University. 634 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: I mean, if there's I think everybody was a graduate 635 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: of ball So Hard University on the Ravens defense today, right, Like, 636 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: I don't know how much throw your cap. You graduated 637 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 1: ball So Hard University, baby. 638 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 2: Like Rokwan Smith actually said that playing in front of 639 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 2: you know so so Trell Suggs goes in. All of 640 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 2: the guys for the most part, who were in the 641 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 2: Ring of Honor come back to be part of that. 642 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 2: A bunch of his old teammates are here, so like, 643 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 2: you have the who's who of Ravens defensive players here 644 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 2: watching and taking in the action, which is just awesome. 645 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,360 Speaker 2: And and Roquwan said that like having the those guys 646 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 2: in the building, like Mint something like, you want to 647 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 2: put on a show for the guys who did it 648 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 2: before the standard here and like Suggs said in the 649 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 2: podcast with you last week, like yeah, they better win. 650 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 1: Yeah got it. He got his wish for sure.

There's a lot 655 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: of guys playing like Ravens and and I think they're 656 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: living up to the standard that's been set for sure. 657 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 2: Even even Ronnie Stanley on that block where he put 658 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 2: the guy you know in the first row, he said that, 659 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 2: you know, I knew Marshall Jana was here and so 660 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 2: I had to do it for my boy Marshall.
