WEBVTT - Texans-Ravens Week 1 Postgame Press Conference 9/10 0:00:02.800 --> 0:00:05.240 Welcome to the Ravens Press Pass podcast. It is Sunday, 0:00:05.240 --> 0:00:07.360 September tenth, and the Ravens kicked off the season with 0:00:07.440 --> 0:00:11.360 a twenty five to nine victory over the Houston Texans. 0:00:11.400 --> 0:00:14.440 The Ravens were able to get the win thanks to 0:00:14.520 --> 0:00:18.040 some strong performances by the running game. Justice Hill had 0:00:18.040 --> 0:00:21.560 a para touchdowns with JK Dobbins also had a touchdown. Now, 0:00:21.560 --> 0:00:24.400 the bad news for the Ravens is that Dobbins was 0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:27.520 lost for the season with a torn achilles. Really tough 0:00:27.560 --> 0:00:30.319 news for the running back who is at store for 0:00:30.360 --> 0:00:33.280 a big season. He played well early in this game, 0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:36.760 looked really strong, but really disappointing news to lose JK 0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:40.880 Dobbins for the season with that torn achilles. After the game, 0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:43.400 that was certainly a big talking point, and head coach 0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:47.120 Sean Harbaugh provided perspective on Jk's injury as well as 0:00:47.120 --> 0:00:49.919 some of the other injuries that the Ravens had over 0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:53.640 the course of this week. One victory. 0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:58.000 Okay, hey, appreciate everybody being here. That's the beginning start 0:00:58.000 --> 0:00:59.480 of the season. Now we're off and running, you know, 0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:01.440 we have opportuntunity to kind of see where we're at 0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:03.840 and we get an opportunity also to do with a win, 0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:05.760 so we're very happy about that. That's the way you 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:08.160 want to open the season with that. We know there's 0:01:08.160 --> 0:01:09.440 so many things that we need to work on to 0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:11.920 get better at, and that's what we'll do starting on 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:14.120 on Monday. So we're excited with the win and proud 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:16.240 of the way the guys played. All the guys, say 0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:18.960 David Ajabo, I mean, how about the pass rus bringing it? 0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:22.680 You know, there was so much concern, you know, right, 0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:26.600 and he'd been working hard and a critical moment came 0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:28.040 up and made that play. I'm just proud of him. 0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:30.319 So I thought the whole team played as hard as 0:01:30.360 --> 0:01:32.039 they could, play as fast as they could, play as 0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:34.000 well as they could, and now our goals just keep 0:01:34.000 --> 0:01:35.880 getting better. So what questions you have? 0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:38.720 How challenging was it to kind of finish off that game, 0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:41.000 But it seemed like the injuries. 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:44.280 Started pulling up with you guys that think the whole Yeah, 0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:45.440 I mean would have been good to put it away. 0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:46.880 That's something we need to work on, try to put 0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:48.920 the game away a little sooner in terms of you know, 0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:51.520 getting those first downs and things like that. So, uh, 0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:55.000 with the injuries, just to kind of brief you on that. Uh, 0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:59.160 JK has a torn achilles unfortunately, so that's going to 0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:02.160 end his season. Just feel bad for him. It's not 0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:05.960 the way we expected this to go, and he's worked 0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:08.960 really hard. But jk' is a strong minded individual. He's 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:11.520 got a big heart, very large spirit, and he's going 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:14.360 to bounce back from this as well. The other injuries 0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:16.400 are really MRI type injuries. Will take a look at 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:21.560 Ronnie and Marcus and Tyler. We'll look at those three 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:23.320 things tonight and tomorrow on the m R and see 0:02:23.320 --> 0:02:26.359 where they're at. So we just don't know about those yet. 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:31.480 From a personal standpoint, how how. 0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:33.880 Much do you feel for JK just for everything he's 0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:35.200 been through and to start with this. 0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:38.120 Injury today, Yeah, just just kind of crestfalling for him. 0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:40.359 You know. So it's so many guys, you know, there's 0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:42.520 so many guys you feel excited for so many guys 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:43.680 you look at and say, okay, we got to work 0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:48.239 on this, and then JK, who has this just unfortunate 0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:51.240 thing happened to him, you know, and he was playing well, 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:55.480 so but really we'll put our arms around him. You know, 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.040 he'll get into rehab and and he will be back. 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:01.320 He's a young guy, so that's where it But yeah, 0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:03.399 it's kind of it's really hard for him. 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:06.040 That opens the door for Justice Hill. 0:03:06.120 --> 0:03:08.000 Now it's his production today. 0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:10.880 What if I have Justice Hill? Yeah, Justice stepped up. 0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:12.880 He played well, he's been playing, He's had a heck 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:14.320 of a camp, you know, and I think Justice has 0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:17.280 done a great job. He's ready to go. Uh you know, 0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:19.800 of course, you know, Gus really played well, so that 0:03:19.880 --> 0:03:22.799 was good to see. And then we've got Melvin opportunity 0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:25.000 to come up, and we have our young guy keating 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.920 on the on the IR coming back after four weeks. 0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:30.680 So uh, those guys I'm sure will step up. Well, 0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:31.959 I know injuries are. 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:33.680 A part of the game, and you guys have done 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:35.440 a lot in the all season of preseason. 0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:37.880 They try to minimize it as much as possible. 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:41.040 But how frustrated it is it to see some major 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:44.160 injuries still happen We've wanted despite everything we're trying. 0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:44.200 To do it. 0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:46.360 Yeah, I mean, it's football, It just is. It's just 0:03:46.400 --> 0:03:48.280 the football. And as you know, I think I think 0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:50.800 everybody just does the best they can, and we certainly did, 0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:52.880 and we certainly will continue to I'm sure there's injuries 0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:54.840 around the league, you know, and then you know, the 0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:56.960 league and the and the and the players Association, I'm 0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:59.480 sure will continue to go to work and do the 0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:01.800 science and trying to figure out, you know, whatever they 0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:03.800 can do off season program wise and things like that 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:07.520 to keep improving in that area big picture wise, first 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:09.160 offensive drive that after. 0:04:10.480 --> 0:04:13.880 After halftime seemed kind of stabilizing. Where do you think 0:04:14.120 --> 0:04:15.840 went well there and set? 0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:19.120 Yeah, that's a great question. I just think we operated well. 0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:21.159 You know, we we we we hit our assignments, we 0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:23.640 lined up, We had a little rhythm. Of course, Lamar, 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:26.240 you know, Lamar made some great throws. The play action 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:27.840 stuff is really working. I thought the guys ran some 0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:29.279 great routes, you know, the deep out routes. 0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:29.960 Uh. 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:32.320 And then you know, Lamar made it happen in that drive, 0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:34.839 and that was the drive that stabilizes, kind of got 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:36.360 our feet set just a little bit there to start 0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:39.360 the second half and and got in position to start 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:43.400 to take the game over. So you anticipate this week today. 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:45.400 Flowers were such a big role in this offense. We 0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:47.920 wanted a ripe. Yeah, I saw the plays, you know, 0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:49.839 he was he was out there, he was gonna play 0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:52.240 a lot. But you know it's I'm proud of him. 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:53.480 You know, I'm proud of him, and he's gonna tell 0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:54.960 you he's gonna get to tell you his only so 0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:57.160 many things. He expects to even do better, right say 0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:01.960 you know so? Yeah so, but uh you know, Zay Lamar, 0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:07.360 I uh obj, I mean, you know, Bait played so well. 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:09.280 The whole receiving court did a good job. Nelson did 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:12.159 a great job. So I'm proud of all those guys. 0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:14.840 I don't wanna forget my other two guys. So you know, 0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:16.680 the the guys that you know, Thailand got after it 0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:19.200 in special teams just a little bit. And uh so 0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:20.159 we're good. John. 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:22.240 It seems like their blitzes were very effective against you 0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:23.840 guys in the first stop. Did was there a specific 0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:25.680 adjustments that allowed you guys to be a little better 0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:26.160 against them? 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:27.760 And second half, Peru, I think we s we just 0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:29.120 think we got a sense that they were gonna run 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:30.840 the zero blitzes, you know, and h and Lamar did 0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:33.120 a great job with uh Todd and with t and 0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:34.600 with the guys and just kind of got lined up 0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:35.800 and got a plan for it. And we did a 0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:36.520 good job against it. 0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:38.760 So have you had a lot of guys who didn't 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:40.640 play on offense during the preseason. 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:42.640 Ivn't too assess how they played. 0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:44.080 The new office is steep. 0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:46.880 Say you had a lot of guys who didn't play 0:05:46.960 --> 0:05:50.040 during preseason or offensive side, I would just asked to 0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:50.839 play of them. 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:53.400 Uh, play for the first time in the scenes. That's 0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:54.719 a big thing. I'm even I was talking to some 0:05:54.720 --> 0:05:56.160 of the guys. I mean, it's just different getting out 0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:58.400 there in the game, the game, speed, operating, the crowd, noise, 0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:00.400 all of it. It's something you get sent for. Not 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:02.240 that kind of goes with not playing in the preseason 0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:04.040 a little bit. But they handle it and now we're 0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:07.599 off and running. How did you think the offense. I 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:10.000 thought the offense could a winning football game. I'm proud 0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:12.280 of it. I'm really happy with what we did. I'm 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:13.760 looking forward to where we can go from here. 0:06:14.040 --> 0:06:16.039 They looked at times like there's i don't know, like 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:18.960 some cluckiness or you know, guys are getting comfortable. You said, 0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:22.479 did you ever think about, you know, conversations about you know, 0:06:22.480 --> 0:06:23.800 pre playing guys in the preseason. 0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:25.479 You know, the new offensive system. 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:25.960 Does that come to mind. 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:29.120 It off. We'll have those conversations probably every year. Yeah, absolutely, 0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:30.600 that comes to mind. And that's something that you really 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:33.039 got to take into consideration and just decide what you 0:06:33.080 --> 0:06:33.440 want to do. 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:37.000 John, What did you think about your cowner guy you 0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:39.479 have seen, I think got in their way, but Stevens 0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:41.160 and Darby went the whole way. 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:42.880 How do you think they held up? I thought they 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:45.440 held up well. They you know, no big plays. You know, 0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:47.120 he had a couple of stop routes, which of course 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:49.080 CJ throws us so well, you know, and they got 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:51.120 good guys running those outside routes. I thought our guys 0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:52.720 were right there on them. They made a couple, We 0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:54.680 made a couple, We made all the tackles. I was 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:55.479 happy with those guys. 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:59.000 Seen still working his way back and just giving everyone 0:06:59.080 --> 0:06:59.679 different guys. 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:01.600 Yeah, yeah, yeah, he just can't start practicing by a 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:03.200 week ago, you know, so he'll be ready to go. 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:05.520 He's he's in a good kind of good uh curve 0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:05.920 right now? 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:08.600 Do you hop Dabas was on contact or was that 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:11.080 or you know, was he what was it on contact 0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:12.000 on the tackle or I. 0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:14.600 Haven't seen him?

We all can play every position, we all 0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:21.760 can run every route, so there's no limit to our 0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:23.320 receiver room. 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:25.240 How much do you think the the loss you know 0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:27.800 JP is thumbing the season get the big chills us. 0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:30.960 Uh, It's gonna be a big loss cause everybody know 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:32.760 JK can really run the ball and he was a 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:34.600 big part of the offense in our run game, so 0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:37.160 losing him can be a big part. But I feel like, 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:42.600 just as in gusts are gonna step up saying, was. 0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:44.840 There any you guys came out and and really moved 0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:45.880 the ball a third quarter? 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:47.520 Was there anything said at half time? 0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:48.080 Uh? 0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:49.640 Cause it seemed like parts of the first stelf were 0:12:49.640 --> 0:12:50.680 struggle offensively. 0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:52.319 We knew we had to move the ball if we 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:54.200 wanted to win. We we knew it was capable of 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:55.959 moving the ball. It was just we had to get 0:12:55.960 --> 0:12:58.440 everything together as a f our first game, first time 0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:00.880 running the offense in the game, so we just had 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:03.040 to get used to just being playing on the field 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:04.000 with each other and just going. 0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:06.760 Do you expect the offense to get smoother in a 0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:08.600 hurry now that you guys are out there all together. 0:13:08.720 --> 0:13:08.880 Oh? 0:13:08.920 --> 0:13:09.439 Absolutely. 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:11.600 I feel like next game it'll be way better. Operation 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:14.600 to be smoother. Everybody will be way more comfortable with 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:14.959 each other. 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:17.760 Said, you know, I don't know what those play calls 0:13:17.760 --> 0:13:18.160 were early. 0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:19.920 The gutsh just touches down on the outside. 0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:22.959 But with the defenses focusing on stopping you guys run, 0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:24.800 do you feel like he'll have plenty of opportunities if 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.520 y Lamar as the RPO tacks to just throw throw that. 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:30.160 Oh yeah, absolutely, because I feel like we got one 0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:32.520 of the best run games in the NFL.

He didn't 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:55.600 give up a touchdown all game. Pete Q had a 0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:59.040 sack and was flying all over the field in this victory, 0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.920 but he still thinks to Ravens could be even better 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:06.559 defensively than what they showed today. 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:13.320 Patrick, A couple of couple of good plays for you.
