Week thirteen at 78 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers. Then let's run it back Week fourteen, this 79 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: time on the road at Cleveland's that's Cleveland twice in 80 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: three weeks. Week fifteen, Green Bay Packers at M ANDT 81 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 1: Bank Stadium. Week sixteen at the Cincinnati Bengals. We don't 82 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: close the season with the Bengals up this year, first 83 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: time fifteen years that we don't close the year with 84 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals. Uh. Then Weeks seventeen at home against 85 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: the l. A. Rams, and then close out the season 86 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 1: Week eight team at home against the Pittsburgh Stealers. There 87 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: it is. There's the full schedule. Seventeen game schedule. Yeah, 88 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: it goes a little you know, I knew there was 89 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: a seventeenth game, but when you look at the schedule 90 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: and you see it goes a week later. So the 91 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: final game of the regular season is January nine. Just 92 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: kind of throws you off a little bit when you 93 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: see it like that. Um, a couple of we're in 94 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 1: the playoffs already. Yeah, just go head fast forward to that. 95 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: A couple of highlights. Five primetime games, three of those 96 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: at home. So that's Sunday Night Football against the Chiefs, 97 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: Monday Night Football against the Colts, and then Sunday Night 98 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: Football against the Browns. Plus you've got three other four games, 99 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: so half the games are essentially to a national audience. 100 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 1: The NFL schedule makers want to do everything they can 101 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: to get this Ravens team in front of a national audience. 102 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: And I don't blame them because watching Lamar Jackson and 103 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: this team is one of the best things going in football. 104 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: So I completely understand that, and that makes a lot 105 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: of sense. Well, let's be honest that we Week eight 106 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 1: teen against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Mt Bank Stadium, would 107 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: not be surprised in the in the least if that 108 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: gets flexed into a Sunday night football at least a 109 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: prime time slot. Yeah, exactly, that's gonna go more prime 110 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: time than one o'clock against the Steelers. So you kid me, 111 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 1: Week eight teen, division could be up for grabs rate 112 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: in that game. So it would not surprise me if 113 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: the Ravens have even more because down the stretch, I mean, 114 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: they don't have a prime time you know, they don't 115 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 1: have a night game after Week twelve at home against 116 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: the Browns. So the that kind of grueling stretch, which 117 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: is a lot of good games in that last final stretch, uh, 118 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: you know other than the l A, the l A 119 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: Rams and the Steelers at fourth five. But I bet 120 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: they get flexed into a nighttime game somewhere in there. 121 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: So anyway, go ahead, Well, some primetime games Yeah, Like, 122 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: what what when you first saw it? When you get 123 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: the top secret confidential email, what is the first thing 124 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: that comes to really has NFL Confidential prepared for the 125 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens over the text? Yeah, So if you when 126 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: you get that email, what was the first thing that 127 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: stuck out to you with about the schedule? Um? I mean, 128 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: I think the interesting thing that jumped out to me 129 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: is just how long it takes to play some of 130 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: the Ravens a f C North rivals. I mean, it's 131 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: kind of it's really strange. I mean the first ten games, 132 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: there's one division game against the Bengals in Week seven. 133 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: You don't play the Browns for the first time until 134 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: after Thanksgiving. Same goes for the Steelers. You go Brown Steelers, 135 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: Browns over three week period in November, late November, early December, right, 136 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: I mean, then you close out with the Steelers in 137 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: we K team like we talked about. So really, you know, 138 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: we're talking about a division here that might be, in 139 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: my opinion, is the best in football, and it might 140 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: be even better than it was last year. The only 141 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: team division in football to send three teams of the playoffs. 142 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: And it's probably better, right, And You're really not going 143 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: to settle things in the division, at least for the Ravens. 144 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: From the Ravens perspective, you're not going to settle things 145 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: in division until after Thanksgiving, right, it's down that final stretch. 146 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: So that's kind of a weird one, you know. I mean, 147 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: even if a team were to get behind early on, 148 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: like you could just run the table down the stretch 149 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: and just totally come back and win the division that, 150 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, it's kind of wild. The Ravens 151 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: schedule is really, in my opinion, in terms of when 152 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: you're looking at at difficulty, right, it's pretty backloaded. I mean, 153 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 1: you have those division games that I'm talking about the Packers. Now, 154 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens with Aaron Rodgers, but you know 155 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: they're they're thirteen and three team last year, So if 156 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is there, I expect them to still be 157 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 1: a really, really good team. That you have the Rams, 158 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: who are another playoff team down the stretch. You have 159 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: what do you say they got that Matthew Stafford. Yeah exactly, 160 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: they swapped golf for Stafford. Uh. They're really talented team. 161 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: So I mean, you have a lot of playoffs squads 162 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: let's see here, all right, Dolphins went the playoffs. That's one, 163 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: Browns two, three, four, five, six, seven games. You have 164 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: seven games out of your last nine or against teams 165 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: that went to the players. Did you count the Bears 166 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: the only Yeah? Okay you did, I you got them? Yeah, yeah, yeah, 167 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,199 Speaker 1: Bears are playing. The only ones that that didn't are 168 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 1: the Bengals. That's it. Wait, that's it right, three four 169 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: or five, six, seven, eight, nine, eight out of nine 170 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: games against teams that went to the playoffs last year. 171 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 1: So yeah, with the Bengals is the only exception that 172 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: is a that's a tough stretch. So you know, I 173 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: think that that's that's not a bad thing for the Ravens. 174 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: I mean, look, they have the second hardest schedule in 175 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: the NFL if you're looking at last year's winning percentage, right, 176 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: so there ain't a soft part of the schedule overall. 177 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: When you have the second hardest schedule in the league, 178 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: and then you look at it and you say, all right, 179 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: well the stretch run is going to be the most challenging. 180 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: But the Ravens are a team that has traditionally played 181 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: some of their best football November December down the stretch 182 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: down the stretch that's when John Harball teams tend to 183 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: turn it on case in point last year. Yeah, that 184 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: that second half is is gonna be really, really tough. 185 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you made the point that the division, the 186 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: division is always often goes, you know, gets decided in 187 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: the last month. But the crazy thing like you're saying, 188 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 1: it might not even be start to be decided until then. 189 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: Like that that week twelve through fourteen, Brown Steelers, Brown's 190 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: that's gonna be critical in deciding how this division falls, 191 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: at least for the rates. I mean, that's gonna be 192 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: obviously a critical stretch. What I do like about this 193 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 1: two of those are on the road at Pittsburgh at Cleveland. 194 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: Have you invested in coffee for this year because there's 195 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: a lot of nights I've always stocked up. Have you 196 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: not seen myself? Um So that is like that is 197 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,319 Speaker 1: the first thing that I noticed is just the again, 198 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 1: the interest in getting this team in front of a 199 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: national television audience. I mean that Week one game against Vegas, 200 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: that's a mega that's gonna attract some massive audience. First 201 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: of all, it's the first game that the Raiders are 202 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: gonna have fans in that new stadium out in Vegas. 203 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: So there's gonna be a lot of people that are 204 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: interested to see that. Obviously, there's gonna be a national 205 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: audience that wants to see little Hurt in the Ravens 206 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: as there often is, um and and and there's just 207 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of pomp and circumstance around 208 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: that game, without question, um and and then it's Monday Football. 209 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: So like that one, to me, is just an exciting 210 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: start to the season. Like, that's just exciting, it's fun. 211 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: It's a fun way to start the seas. Um and 212 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: then you gotta follow it up with the Chiefs, and 213 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: that is that is tough. So you play Monday night 214 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: football out in Vegas on the West coast, you come back, 215 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: then you're playing the best team in DFC on a 216 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: short week. That's tough. That is tough. Um. So now look, 217 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: I think whenever the Chiefs are on the schedule, you're 218 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: probably never looking at that game and saying, unless it 219 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: were to be after a bye and saying I love 220 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: where the Chiefs fall on the schedule, that's just a 221 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: tough team to play. Whenever that game takes place. I do, 222 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: like you know, so you talk about the challenge of 223 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: the back half of the schedule. I like the Ravens 224 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: ability to to start the season strong. So you know, 225 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: just looking at it now, I would expect them to 226 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: be favored against the Raiders, against the Lions, against the Broncos, 227 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: probably against the Colts, um at home at home on 228 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 1: Monday night, probably against the Chargers charging team, and probably 229 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: against the Banking uh and then Vikings. So you know, 230 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 1: just look at that first month of the month of 231 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: the season where John Harbor always has his teams ready 232 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: to play to start the year. I mean, the Ravens 233 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: have a great track record in week one year after year. 234 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: They've played some great football games to start the season. 235 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: I know you talked about them playing well in December, 236 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,199 Speaker 1: which is true, but they've also played some great games 237 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: early in the year. So well, yeah, they've been particularly 238 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: good at season openers. You know, they've stubbed their toe 239 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: a little bit in that first quarter after the season opener. 240 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: That's October is a tough month for whatever reason. I 241 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: don't know that there's any rhyme or reason to that, 242 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 1: but that's just kind of happened now. Part of that 243 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,079 Speaker 1: because we've gotten the Chiefs early in the year, the 244 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: past few. Yeah, and that in that train continues. But look, 245 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: I mean, so you know, Raiders, Chiefs, Lions, Broncos. I 246 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: like the ability to you know, I'm not gonna we're 247 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: not gonna do the whole win lostman lost all the 248 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: way through, but you like, I like the ability to 249 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: go three. Yeah, I think wait, wait, let's just start out. 250 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: Let's just let's just start out week one, Dubs week two, 251 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: week three, Dubs Week four, Dubs Week five, Colts, Dubs 252 00:13:56,080 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: Week six, Chargers, Dubs Week seven, Bengals Dubs by seven, 253 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: Vikings Dubs. We gotta keep going here, keeping keeping all 254 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: right at Dolphins, Dubs at Bears, Dubs, Browns at home, 255 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: Dubs at Steelers. All right, I'll say this, At Steelers 256 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: at Browns, I'll split them. I'll split them, all right, 257 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: I'll split them. So that's two ells. That's two Els 258 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: Packers at home. No a Rod, dubh at Bengels, Dubs, 259 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: l A Rams at home, come on, Dubs, Steelers at home, 260 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: close out the season, Dubs. That's fourteen two. No, that's 261 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: the that's searching three. That's thirteen sorry sifte two. My 262 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: mats off. No, no, you missing, you missed. You miss 263 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: the loss there because you had the chief. So you said, 264 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: split split the Browns, split the Steelers, and so that's 265 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: one loss of the Browns. One. I just split the 266 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: two road games between the Steelers and the Browns. Oh, 267 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: two road games. I thought you were had us winning 268 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: both home games. Okay, so you got us, Okay, all right, 269 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: so you gotta sweep in the Steelers basically, or one 270 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: of the show. I'm thinking sweep. I'm we're sweeping the Steelers. 271 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go. I'm not gonna go sit here 272 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: and predict the sweep of the Browns. I think conservatively, conservatively, conservatively, 273 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: I like it. That's the that's the floor. Yeah, floor 274 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: fifteen and two and then obviously seventeen and oh is 275 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: not off the table, obviously obviously. I mean, I mean, look, 276 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 1: look like I said, the Ravens have a tough schedule, right, 277 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: but the Ravens are really good. Like this is what 278 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: I tell everybody, you know, when whenever you're just like 279 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: out and about or chatting with people or whatever, it's like, 280 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: all right, well, how are the Ravens gonna be this year? 281 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: You know, I get that question a hundred thousand times, 282 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: and I'm always like, yeah, I mean, the Ravens are 283 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: really good. They're they're gonna be very good. They have 284 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: a really they play in a really tough division, and 285 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: they have a tough schedule. This year's schedule is more 286 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: difficult than last year's schedule on paper, right, I mean, 287 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: who the hell knows? This could all get blown up, 288 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 1: and whenever guys get injured, starting quarterbacks get injured, this 289 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: can quarterbacks traded exactly right, So, like you, you just 290 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: never know. But I mean, the Ravens, it's gonna be 291 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: a tough schedule. I don't expect a lot of these 292 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: teams to just totally crumble, right, and so they have 293 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: their work cut out for him. But the Ravens are 294 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: a really good team. Every every one of these teams 295 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: are looking at the schedule, right, and they're doing the 296 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: same game with us, and they're like Ravens. You know, 297 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: like nobody wants to face the Ravens either. So I 298 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: mean I think that that Baltimore has an opportunity, like 299 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: you're saying, in the first half of the season, to 300 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: jump out, and they need to. They need to stop 301 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: pilot wins, right, they need to stack wins. Use the 302 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: John Harball phrase here, let's stack wins. And they need 303 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: to get off to uh whatever it is, five and two, 304 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: six and one kind of start right because it's gonna 305 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: get grueling and and they're gonna take some else. I'll concede, 306 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: probably not, probably not more than two. Probably not. Well, 307 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: they definitely not more than two. That was the floor. 308 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: But like you know, I think they need to get 309 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: off to a hot start, Like we said, three and one, 310 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: they need to go in that first quarter. And then 311 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: really you have that home stretch that I was talking 312 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: about the second quarter of the season, home against the Colts, 313 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: home against the Chargers, home against the Bengals, home against 314 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: the Vikings after a bye, like you get rested and 315 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 1: you're at home the whole time. You gotta that that's 316 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: gonna be critical. Can you run the table there? Certainly 317 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: not out of the question. You don't, certainly not out 318 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: of the question. You don't leave Baltimore. You play at 319 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: Denver on October three, and you don't. You don't have 320 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: another road game until November eleven. I mean, so six 321 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 1: weeks of of life at home, sleeping in your own bed, 322 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 1: with a bye work in there like that is that 323 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: is it's pretty nice. That is nice as you're trying 324 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 1: to put yourself in a good position standing wise, early 325 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: in the year. I mean, that's what the Steelers did 326 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 1: last year. Like the Steelers, what they started eleven and 327 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 1: oh and and so they jumped out to such an 328 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: early lead and then they started to falter down the stretch. 329 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: But they've already built up such a such a great 330 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 1: lead in the division that no one can catch me. 331 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: So you kind of hope that the Ravens maybe could 332 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:07,120 Speaker 1: do something similar this year. Um, that would be now, 333 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: you know, we we sit here and say it, right. 334 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 1: I mean, the Colts are a really good team. Last year, 335 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,199 Speaker 1: they could have won their division, the NFC South. I 336 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: mean they finished I think eleven and five, tied for 337 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 1: the division. League. They're a really good team. They got 338 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz, you know, maybe he's an upgrade at quarterback 339 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: and they get that offense, take that offense to another level. 340 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 1: The Chargers have Justin Herbert under center. You always look 341 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: at the quarterbacks, right, the Charges have Justin Herbert, who's 342 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 1: the reigning NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. Yeah, and 343 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 1: they they're always they're always injured. So like if they 344 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: get healthy and Herbert keeps going, they're really good. You know, 345 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 1: So no show gimmes in there. That's for darn shark. Yeah, 346 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: I mean it is funny. You know, it's fun to 347 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: go through and say fifteen and two conservative, that's all that, 348 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: But it is not, by any means a gimme schedule 349 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: when you look at it. I think one thing it's 350 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: really interesting this year is how the a f C 351 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 1: North shakes out. Because you made the point earlier, which 352 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: I agree with you, that it's probably the best division 353 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 1: of football sent three playoff teams last year. The Browns. 354 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: I mean, the Browns have gotten considerably better in my opinion. 355 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:10,719 Speaker 1: They had a good draft. You know, if you look 356 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 1: at the draft grades, they add Clowney this offseason they're 357 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: getting Odell Beckham Jr. Back Um. You know, I may 358 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 1: be missing another move or two that they've made, but 359 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: they've they've addressed kind of their needs, so you expect 360 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: them to people. They made a lot of defensive moves. 361 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: They got a big time safety from the Rams. They 362 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 1: got a cornerback I think also from the Rams. So 363 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: they they last year it was like all offensive line 364 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 1: and tight end. This year was all defense for them, 365 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: and then you have the Bengals including in the draft, yep, yep, 366 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: and Bengals they get Joe Burrow back, they add mar 367 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 1: Chase Um. So I expect them to be better than 368 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 1: they were last year, especially once Joe Burrow got hurt 369 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: and missed the rest of the year. The Steelers, I 370 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of people that are sort of 371 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: ready to write the Steelers off and say that they're 372 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: they're you know, leave them for dead or whatever, and 373 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: say that they're not going to be as good as 374 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: they were last year, and they're gonna take a step back, 375 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 1: and they've got all these salary cap issues, and they're 376 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: kind of, you know, they're kind of passionate together to 377 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: keep the band together for one more season with band, 378 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 1: you know, they bring Jujue back on the one year deal, 379 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: they restructure contracts. They have been back, but they lose 380 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: Pouncy Um. They've made changes to the offense line, obviously 381 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,159 Speaker 1: building a wave of us now here in Baltimore, so 382 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: that if the Steelers take a step back. I'm always 383 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: you know me, I'm never really Steelers. You're always scared 384 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 1: of the Steelers. You're one of those guys every year 385 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: you say you write them off, you write them off, 386 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: and then they go eleven and oh and you still 387 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 1: refuse to admit that the true I don't write them off. 388 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: And they are a good team, right like the Steelers are. 389 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: This is what I've told multiple people. Now, I do 390 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: think the Steelers are going to take a step back 391 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: this year. I think that their strategy of keeping the 392 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: band together and doing all that, like, personally, I just 393 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: don't think that's gonna pay off. Right, Like, you saw 394 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: some cracks in that armor late in the season, and 395 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: they still they're still wearing the same armor. And they've 396 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: lost some key players to Blood Dupree, their offensive lineman, 397 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: you know, Marquis Pounty retired, they lost filling the wave 398 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: to US uh, and they've lost Mike Hilton, a very 399 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: good cornerback for them. So I I just don't think that. 400 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I think they will take a step back. 401 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,679 Speaker 1: I think the Browns and the Ravens, I'm sorry, I 402 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: think the Ravens and the Browns are the two best 403 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: teams in the NFC North this year. With that said, 404 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: the Steelers are never gonna I don't think they're gonna 405 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: take a severe step back, Like I don't think they're 406 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,399 Speaker 1: gonna be a sub five team, you know, but I 407 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: could see him going nine and eight. I could see 408 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: him right around there, Like that's what I envisioned for 409 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: the Steelers. Take a while getting used to the new math, 410 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: you know, it's just ingrained in my head. Ten is six, 411 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: thirteen and three, fourteen and two, eight and eight. When 412 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: you just said nine and eight, it threw me off. 413 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: That's gonna be. Like I still called even as we 414 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,199 Speaker 1: were running through the schedule, I still wanted to call 415 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: him the Oakland Raiders. I had to like check myself 416 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: to the Vegas Raiders, even though that's a great game 417 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: on the schedule. Um, so all right, you want to 418 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: do the travel draft. Well, we'll wait. What a couple 419 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 1: other things with this. I mean we talked about, Yeah, 420 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: we talked about that long stretch at home. Well, the 421 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 1: flip side of that is that you also have a 422 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: long stretch on the road. I mean, you have four 423 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: out of five games that are on the road between 424 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: November eleventh and December twelve, right at Dolphins at Bears, home, 425 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: Browns at Steelers at Browns. That that stretch is gonna 426 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 1: be a tough one. I mean, the Dolphins are a 427 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 1: pretty good team. You know, we'll see to you know, 428 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 1: they were in the playoff. They have a really good defense. 429 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: They have a really good defense to of you know, 430 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:56,440 Speaker 1: I think the journy is still out on that. But 431 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 1: they gave him a lot of weapons this offseason. Um, 432 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: so we'll see. Um the Bears, is Justin Field is 433 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 1: going to be the starting quarterback of the Bears. There 434 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: is it gonna be Andy Dalton by mid season? You know, 435 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: by the end of November. I want to say it's 436 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: probably Justin Fields. I don't know. So that's an interesting 437 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: thing to watch in that game. Then you have Brown 438 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: Steelers Browns, So that stretch, that's rude. Just get ready 439 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: to be a rude. Yeah, yeah, I mean, like it's 440 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 1: with the schedule. It's kind of it's there's waves, a 441 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: lot at home, a lot of the road, a lot 442 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: of non division teams all in the division games. Like 443 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: there's just ways in the schedule and exactly. I mean, 444 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: you start out with three out of four games around 445 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: the road. You know, we sit here and talk about 446 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: going three and one, Well, three out of the four 447 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 1: games around the road, and the only one that's not 448 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: is against the Chiefs. And to to start the season, 449 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: going back to the timing of things, you only have 450 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: one one o'clock game in the first five games of 451 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: the season. That's at Detroit, so late nights, uh in 452 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: on national audiences to start the season, which I like. 453 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 1: I like that. Oh, I like that. I think you know, 454 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 1: we all remember that Rams game from two years ago, 455 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. Lamar one of the best games he's played, 456 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: one of the best games this team has played. And 457 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: so I'm also gonna be like in Vegas, I'm doubling down, 458 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: pushing all the chips to the center of the table. 459 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: That that's what we get from Lamar Jackson in Vegas. 460 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 1: I like that.

I think. Interesting. That's 533 00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: a Usually I just kind of take the Cleveland and 534 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: Cincinnati games, so they just sort of fall to me, 535 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: you know. I'm like, I'm just waiting there for the 536 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: late picks, and then they're a great game. Man. That's 537 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 1: a great game. It is, and you know you will 538 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: be a little worn down it is. How used to 539 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: have a one o'clock road game? Um?

It really is, it really is. Is 571 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: that's the one I was looking for. Bamf I'm driving. 572 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: Doesn't that more on the west coast? No, it's kind 573 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: of central.

You can't go wrong. That's two winners. 581 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: That's two winners in this road draft. It's true. It's 582 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 1: very too so enough of enough of that, Shenan against 583 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 1: We'll get We'll get one question here. As always, you 584 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: guys can email us with the lounge at Ravens dot 585 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 1: NFL dot net. Let us know who you think won 586 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,959 Speaker 1: the travel Draft. I can't even pick a winner, but 587 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: if there's gonna be one, I'll take it. UM. This 588 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 1: comes to us from Jefferson Blonquist. Mr DaCosta said in 589 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: the last podcast, which if you haven't listened to that yet, 590 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: definitely go ahead and check it out. There were a 591 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 1: lot of gold nuggets in there that came out on Monday. 592 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: UM that there's been a paradigm shift during drafting talent. 593 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: The best athletes, UM are not staying in college for 594 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: four to five years. They're in college three years, are 595 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: coming out early and requiring additional development at the pro level. 596 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: Given that trend, to keep pace with the times good scouting, 597 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: we'll look at the ceiling, how coachable the athlete is 598 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,239 Speaker 1: and give it. Give those factors as equal weight with 599 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: the tape. UH did a player display willingness to try 600 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:09,959 Speaker 1: new techniques, new position, new skills? This draft class shows 601 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:13,239 Speaker 1: the weight placed on those factors. I think it's an 602 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 1: interesting point. I mean, this is kind of the thing 603 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: that I've I've said multiple times now I said it 604 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 1: after the draft I said it. That was the question 605 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: that I asked Eric about, which is trying to get 606 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: ascending players, and obviously you always want to get players 607 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 1: who are ascending, but he did admit that the Ravens 608 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: have prioritized, based on studies, taking the younger player, all 609 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 1: things being equal, and Patrick Queen is an example of that. 610 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think he was I think he 611 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: was twenty when the Ravens drafted him, and so getting 612 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: what's that according to ray Lewis he was ten years 613 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 1: old when he was drafted. But I do think, uh, Jefferson, 614 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: that there's there's truth in what you're saying. And I 615 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: think that the Ravens are prioritizing, you know, getting guys 616 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: who had, you know when the way Eric talked about it, 617 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: the ASIA is one thing, but they also don't want 618 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: a lot of guys who've had a lot of injuries, 619 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: don't have a lot of tread left on the tires. 620 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,800 Speaker 1: They want somebody who enters the NFL and is still improving. 621 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 1: And I think o Dafa is a great example of that. 622 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: Um and that's kind of the class only been playing 623 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: football for five years, incredible physical talent, good player at 624 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,760 Speaker 1: the college level, but can probably get take even bigger 625 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: steps with some great coaching that the Ravens have on defense. 626 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 1: So I think it's a good observation and definitely something 627 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: the Ravens have prioritized. Yeah, I would agree with that. 628 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: I mean they want it's I think that under Azzi 629 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: there is a high priority on the tape to tape 630 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: the tape, and that's never gonna go away. Obviously you 631 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: gotta play well on tape, and they got to see 632 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: something in you. But I do think that Eric is 633 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 1: a little bit more in the projection game, you know, 634 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 1: and and places a little more of a higher priority 635 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 1: on the athleticism and some of that stuff, like he 636 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,320 Speaker 1: was to hit some home runs and and and then 637 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: he also still does take on day three in particular, 638 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: I think some guys that are a little bit you know, 639 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 1: maybe safe for picks if for lack of a better word, 640 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 1: like you need those quality guys who you know, maybe 641 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 1: they turn into a starter and whatever. They're probably not 642 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: gonna turn into a star, but you know, they could 643 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,839 Speaker 1: be a good starter for you. But with some of 644 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: his top picks, I think that he is showing that 645 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:31,839 Speaker 1: he wants to hit some home runs. Yeah, so look, 646 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna get a first chance to see Uh.
