1
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,039
Speaker 1: It's like politicians, you know, they make all these promises,

2
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,079
Speaker 1: but then do they really get the job done? Do

3
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: you go back and evaluate that. No, but we're gonna

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 1: hold our feet to the fire. At the end of this.

5
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: My only value was really carrying like and carrying cameras

6
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: and things like that. But it gave me the entree

7
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: into the being around the NFL. I grabbed some jeans

8
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: I thought were thirty dollars, that's what it said, ring

9
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: them up four dollars and cents. Welcome into the lounge

10
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 1: for another episode of predictions. But this is season long predictions,

11
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:53,279
Speaker 1: not just fifty roster predictions, which Garrett, before we get

12
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: started here, I need to do a little not so

13
00:00:55,560 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 1: humble bragging that I destroyed you on the fifth three

14
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: man roster. You did win the fifty three man roster.

15
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 1: I'll guilt by two by two. Yeah, it wasn't my

16
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: best showing. I wish I would have thought through some

17
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,199
Speaker 1: things a little bit more. We both missed Maurice Kennedy,

18
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: which wouldn't That was just we missed. We missed on that.

19
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: We knew how that was going to play out. You

20
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: could just see that. You know that Ravenson said, that's

21
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: about the rule that he has to stay on the

22
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: act roster for a day. So and then kind of

23
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 1: a crazy weekend, lots of trade, two trades office, the

24
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 1: line changed, um. And then for the record, had I

25
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: made the predictions after Thursday's game with Ban Bradley, I

26
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: would have put him on the roster. He had a

27
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: great game on Thursday. Well, yeah, maybe that's what it is.

28
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: But had I seen that, I would have put him

29
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: on the roster. So that's really basically a wash there. Yeah,

30
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: and Melee versus Larry to mel that was I gave

31
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,559
Speaker 1: you credit on that. I didn't see. Yeah, I didn't

32
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: see that. Yeah, you know what, buddy. But with that said,

33
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna get into bigger predictions for the entire season,

34
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: and we're gonna come back at the end of the

35
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: year and get back into these and really hold ourselves accountable.

36
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: You know, it's like politicians, you know, they make all

37
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: these promises, but then did they really get the job done?

38
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: Do you go back and evaluate that. No, But we're

39
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: going to hold our feet to the fire at the

40
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: end of this And on the front end, we brought

41
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: in a special guest to kind of be the arbiter,

42
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: the judge on who he think is thinks is going

43
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: to be right by season's end, and that is not

44
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: other than Evan Washburn of CBS Fame. He's everywhere. Man.

45
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: This guy, I'll tell you what his career impressive, impressive,

46
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 1: and he's the host of Unscripted, so he has to

47
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: keep us knuckleheads and check on that as well as

48
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: Ravens report. You have a role on this year. Yeah,

49
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: we're gonna be doing some interviews and I think that's

50
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: where my experience really comes in, is Unscripted having to

51
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: sort of mediate the wackiness that is mostly make and

52
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: then Garrett comes in. But then what Garrett does, which

53
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: is subtle, is that his presentation is so polished, but

54
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: at times he's saying just as ridiculous a thing. It's

55
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: just not covered with all the uh, the screaming and

56
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: hand movement unless chopping and craziness. Yeah, and basically we

57
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 1: have these conversations as we do Unscrifted every week. We

58
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: have these conversations on set, but then also like during

59
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: break is where we have some of the best conversations.

60
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: So we're going to try to take some of those

61
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: conversations and bring them here to the Lounge podcast and

62
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: share that with our listeners today. Yeah, but real quick, Brian,

63
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: before we get into the conversation with Evan and the predictions,

64
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: we want to tell our fans about the Ravens Flock

65

73
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: off with predictions. You ready to do this. I'm ready.

74
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,119
Speaker 1: Let's get into it all right? Who will be the

75
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: defensive m v P this year? Garrett? I think it

76
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Eric Weddle. Got last year, Eric Weddle,

77
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: You just saw the difference in the secondary that really

78
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: the defense is a whole with him back there, and

79
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: now I think the Ravens have the other pieces around

80
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: him with Tony Jefferson, with Jimmy Smith, healthy, with Brandon Carr,

81
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: with MOREL Humphrey, like they have all the pieces necessary

82
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: on defense that but it's still Wettle is like the

83
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: driver of the ship back there. And I think the

84
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 1: puppet master he is, and I think that he he

85
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 1: makes plays. He's the guy that's in the forefront. He's

86
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 1: the guy that often people go to in the media

87
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 1: for interviews because he's such a good quote. He gets

88
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: his hands on the football. So I'm gonna go with Wettle.

89
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go c J. Mosley. It's a good pick. Yeah,

90
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 1: I think that he is prime. I mean, Little says,

91
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 1: you know, he's just now entering his prime. Yeah, you know,

92
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go c J. Hugh is years wise, an age,

93
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: just entering his prime. And I think he's gonna show

94
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 1: up more because Zachary or is not next to him anymore.

95
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: I think that he's going to have to carry a

96
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: bigger burden, you know, or lead this team in tackles.

97
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: Last year. I think that this year it's gonna be

98
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: c J. Moseley. He made four picks last year, could

99
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: have had more, could have a touchdown against the Red

100
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 1: Skins don't break that one up. But I think that

101
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: it's going to become even more clear this year that

102
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: c J. Mosley is the star of the Ravens defense.

103
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: It's difficult to be the arbiter because you guys watch

104
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: this team more than anyone I know, But my gut

105
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: tells me that c J. Mosley will probably grab whatever

106
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: this award is. But I think we also have to

107
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: decide who's evaluating this award because those that truly no football,

108
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 1: whether it be the Pro Football focuses, the world, the

109
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: coaches tape, all those things, I think you have to

110
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: give it to somebody up front because Mosley is going

111
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: to benefit from what this defensive line can do, and

112
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: that's the strength of this defense. And it's a group,

113
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: so it's hard to give it to one Guy's at

114
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: Brandon Williams, is that Michael Prierce. I think Brent Urban's

115
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,679
Speaker 1: the name that's gonna probably pop up a lot this year,

116
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: but I think c J. Mosley might benefit from it.

117
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: But the flip side of that, to give Wettle a

118
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: shot in this department will if teams can't run, and

119
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: that just becomes something they're gonna have to deal with.

120
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 1: Early in a game, they're gonna start chucking the ball around,

121
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: and that gives a guy like Wettle much more of

122
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: not tunity. I think both good candidates, but I think

123
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: c J, mostly based off of the way this defense

124
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: looks to be shaping up, is probably gonna have the

125
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: gaudier numbers, right right, Well, I'm up one nothing earlier. Really,

126
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: don't mink I'm taling this up. We look at the

127
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 1: end of this it's not evan that ultimate. It's at

128
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: the end of the season is when we really talents

129
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 1: a preseason favorite. You know, it's like the power rankings.

130
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: You know, we'll see if I am ahead of you

131
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: in the power ranks, right, And it's like they always say,

132
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,799
Speaker 1: there's been no preseason number one team. That's like everyone

133
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 1: the college Fooball national championship. That's kind of work. Well nothing, right, jeez, alright,

134
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: So who will be the offensive m v P. Do

135
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 1: you think I'm going Danny Woodhead? That's because I'm hating

136
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 1: how much I'm starting to agree with Yeah, but I

137
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: haven't heard I haven't heard his argument yet. I think

138
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: that as we'll get into I think Danny Woodhead is

139
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 1: also going to lead this team receptions spoiler for later question. Yeah,

140
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: and I just think that he's gonna be the straw

141
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 1: that stirs to drink for this offense. I think he's

142
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: gonna be a guy that picks up a lot of

143
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: first downs. I think he's gonna get a lot of

144
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: touchdowns this year. I think he's gonna be Joe Facco's

145
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: safety valve. I mean, let's be honest, he lost two

146
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: of the guys that he trusted the most as targets

147
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: on this offense, Dennis Pittap Kyle us Chick. I think

148
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: danny woodhads next guy that Joe is gonna put his

149
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: trust in. H I think that Danny Wood has going

150
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: to have a really good season. I don't think he's

151
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: gonna be the MVP he I mean, if you look

152
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: throughout danny Wood his career, he's never been in offensive

153
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: MVP caliber player at any of the places because he

154
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: played on better offenses than he's played on playing on currently. Though. Yes, yeah,

155
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: when he's had he's been overshadowed by other stars. Oh

156
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: that's your point. Yeah, I'm saying he's previously he's overshadowed

157
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: by other offensive stars. I don't know that here he's

158
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: gonna be over as overshadowed as he was in in

159
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: New England or even by Philip Rivers. Yeah, I don't

160
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: necessarily buy that argument. When you look at where he was,

161
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: I understand New England that's a different beast. But when

162
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: you look at where he wasn't and he barely played right,

163
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: it's like he had a huge role there the Jets.

164
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: He wasn't barely on the field. But but I so,

165
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: I my pick would be Mike Wallace. He was a

166
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: thousand receiver last year. If you want to talk about

167
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: someone that Joe trust, Joe trust throwing the bottom, Mike Wallace.

168
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: He's a number one receiver on the depth chart, and

169
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: I don't see any reason why he can't go out

170
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: there and have a thousand receiving yards. Again, I mean

171
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: I don't think that he will, uh, and so I

172
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: mean spoiler for a later question. I think he's going

173
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: to be the team of receiving yards and I just

174
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: don't with Danny. I think he's gonna be really good.

175
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 1: But to say that he's going to be the straw

176
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: that starves a drink for this offense, I think that's

177
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: putting a little too much stock in that and I'll

178
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: take this angle to this, because yes, Woodhead was the

179
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: name that came to mind when I thought offensive mvv

180
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: But two fold, what does that say about your offense?

181
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 1: If a guy that is the checkdown, sort of the

182
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: safety valve, all the things you brought up, the seventy

183
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: catch guy, if he's your m v P, there's much

184
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: bigger problems to what's going on offensively. I think if

185
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 1: your Ravens fan or you're part of this coach, you

186
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: hope that Joe Flacco is your offensive and he's such

187
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: a mystery right now based off of his back injury.

188
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: But I think if you if you want to forecast

189
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: or try to predict, hey, what makes this team the

190
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: best they can be and what gives this offense the

191
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: best shot, it has to be a guy like Joe

192
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: or you know, Mike Wallace falls into that category a bit.

193
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,839
Speaker 1: I think that if you have Danny Woodhead as your

194
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: offensive m v P, then you offense and you're talking

195
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: about an offense that again is in the bottom half

196
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 1: of the league. But if this is strictly a prediction

197
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: based we're playing right now and based off of all

198
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: that we know at this point, which is very little,

199
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 1: then I think that that's the safer pick. I don't

200
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: think it's the right pick. You know what, Uh, you

201
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,839
Speaker 1: know it's offensive MVP, So I couldn't take this guy.

202
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: But I think we probably agree that if we're just

203
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: thinking these points and I like this, Yes, actually if

204
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: you win that way, if you go that way, then

205
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: I think then that no, that's the league. You can't

206
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: will never vote for. Justin Tucker is your offensive We

207
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: talked about it last year on the show, and in

208
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: in a real way, he probably is the best offensive weapons.

209
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: And when you think about value, because of what it

210
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: allows this team to do on both sides. They can

211
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: take risks on defense that they wouldn't necessarily take because

212
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: it's a field possession game, position game that they play

213
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: better than anyone in the NFL because of Justin and

214
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 1: because of Sam. Let's be honest, if you start on

215
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 1: the twenty five right, each drive you just kneel it

216
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 1: down the end, and how many yards do you need

217
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 1: to get you need to get points out of the drive,

218
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: You honestly need like thirty yards. Thirty five yards that's it,

219
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: you know, So that's like two nice passes to fifteen

220
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 1: yard chunks to Mike Wallace and all a sudden tucker.

221
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: You have really phrasing it as who will be the

222
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: m v P like the best means of scoring points?

223
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: Then yes, I agree, justin what's the goal of an offense?

224
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,839
Speaker 1: Welcome to my side here, Yes, come on in a

225
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: band wagon. I'll give you maybe a half point for that.

226
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: I'm scoring it alright. Next is who will be the

227
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: breakout player of the year. I think this is interesting.

228
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: It is interesting. I'm gonna go, uh defense here. I'm

229
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 1: gonna go Matt judon that. Yeah, I got somebody else,

230
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 1: But let's hear your combined case for Matt. Guess they're

231
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: probably on the same page. I'll be quick. I think

232
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 1: that Judean he is in position to have serious production

233
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: in terms of a sex standpoint, and that's something that

234
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: we all pay attention to. He like he was somebody

235
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: that impressed us last year. He's going to be a

236
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: starter this year, so he's gonna have more reps. It's

237
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: a combination of talent and opportunity, right he hasn't he

238
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: has it exactly? He has it now. I think he's

239
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: a very talented player going into a second year. He

240
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: knows the game a lot better. He's very athletic, he

241
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: trimmed down, he's faster. I think he's gonna have a

242
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: lot of chances to make place. And the Ravens also

243
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: have more pass rushers around him round that group as

244
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: a whole, so all of them are gonna be fresh,

245
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: and I think that's gonna help everybody as a whole.

246
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: I think Judan is a great call. The name I

247
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: immediately thought of, and and maybe Prisoner of that one

248
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: game that I saw in preseason game number one, but

249
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: I think Brent Urban can have that Michael Pierce Brandon

250
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 1: Williams type breakout, where again the numbers might not reflect

251
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: it if you're just going through the box score, but

252
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: if you're of that analytics or somebody that studies the

253
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: tape and coaches rave about him when you meet with them,

254
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: I think he if he can stay healthy and avoid

255
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: some of those nagging things that he's just a freak

256
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 1: at he's just a bigger body, and learning his background

257
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: about how he played hockey, you can see that in

258
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: the way that for a big guy, he has complete

259
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: control of his movement and there's no wasted movement, and

260
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: now you see the confidence start to match where he

261
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 1: is physically, and I think he's a guy that could

262
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: be a game wrecker along that front. Yeah, they wanted

263
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: to need Brentil I think he could. Yeah. I mean

264
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: a guy who shuts down the run game, get some

265
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 1: pressure on quarterbacks. I think he could be very good

266
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: this year. I like that pick. He's in a contract

267
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: year and after that it is gonna be a motivator

268
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: as well. Can I toss that one other name for

269
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 1: breakout play of the year? Sure? James Hurst my guy

270
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: friend of the lounge. Here's cow many? How many times

271
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 1: are going to having conversation every every podcast episode? I'm

272
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: devoted to it alright. Last, who will be the best rookie? Uh?

273
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: I kind of struggle with this one because I I

274
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 1: love Marlon Humphrey. I think Marlin Honver is really good.

275
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 1: I just don't know that he'll play enough to be

276
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: that guy. So I go to Tias Bowser and I'll

277
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: probably say Tiess Bowser. I think that he's also going

278
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: to have a really big role. He's one of those

279
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: when I mentioned there's all these young pass rushers around

280
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 1: sucks and jude On Bowser is the guy that I'm

281
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: thinking of. You know really there. So I want to

282
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: say it's Bowser. He is really athletic. He can play

283
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: dropping a cover. She showed flashes the ability to do that.

284
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: He knows how to get after the quarterback. I want

285
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: to say, Tias Bowser, I'm gonna go with Marlin Humphrey.

286
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: I know, I mean, I love Humphrey at I stuck

287
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 1: with that. Yeah, I think that Humphrey, in one way

288
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: or another, is going to see a decent amount of snaps.

289
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: You know, there will be injuries at cornerback, maybe not

290
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: Brandon Carr, the iron Man of the NFL. But you're

291
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: telling me you think James playing all sixteen. I don't know.

292
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: I hope so, but I knocked on wood, but I

293
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: just don't see it happening. I mean, it's it's it's

294
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: been a struggle for Jimmy. And I think Marlin is

295
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: gonna get on the field at some point because of

296
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: injury or whatnot. And I think he's gonna play really well.

297
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: You can get on the field just because he's playing

298
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: so well, and maybe Brandon is giving up some yards.

299
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 1: It would not shock me if if midway through this year,

300
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: they say, all right, Marlin, you're gonna be our starter

301
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 1: now O, Jimmy wouldn't shock me, And I think that, uh,

302
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 1: I think Marlon might be one of you might be

303
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 1: your best playmaking cornerback. That is a big statement to

304
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: me making with very little evidence of it up to

305
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 1: this point. And look, I'm sure that's what everyone hopes

306
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 1: for in this building and that roots for this team.

307
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: But the safest money is with Taias Bowser. And I

308
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: think you're right that Marlin Humphrey is gonna get on

309
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: the field. But you guys know really well and good

310
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: that the adjustment for some of these corners, even coming

311
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: from the SEC, is really different. And even playing you

312
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: play a team like Pittsburgh. Now, if you've got Jimmy

313
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 1: on Antonio Brown, then is he going up against Martavis Bryant?

314
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: If cars heard, I mean that that is a challenge

315
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: that I don't think he's seen the name that in

316
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: price just because I root for interesting, I mean, Jalen

317
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 1: Hill is going to have some shots here, whether it

318
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 1: be as slot filling. I mean so I think in

319
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: terms of rookie that will make some splash plays that

320
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: could at least command some attention in this department. Um,

321
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: I think that would be great. But I think of

322
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: this class, which we think is strong, and maybe Tim

323
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: Williams too, everybody seems to think, at least from what

324
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: I've read you guys are here every day, is that

325
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: they didn't use him a bunch. He's still trying to

326
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: figure things out. But once they can just sort of

327
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: tee him off, maybe he picks up some stack stack

328
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: numbers that make him a guy that would at the

329
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: end of the year, you say Tim Williams is probably

330
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: the most productive of this rookie class. I think, yeah.

331
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna probably use him late in games

332
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: to really I mean not just satan to the fourth quarter,

333
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: but I think that he will be used, particularly when

334
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 1: the defense is tired late in the game. Last year,

335
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: I think that was the problem. The past rush really

336
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: lost its teeth late in games. And I think that

337
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: they drafted Tim Ollins come in there and say, you

338
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: know what, go get the quarterback, because I agree with you.

339
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: They've been trying to turn him into an all around

340
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: linebacker in preseason and training camp, and once they just

341
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: let him off the leash and he has one job

342
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: and one job only, I think that's when he's gonna

343
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: thrive all right, So let's go through. Now we get

344
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: into some stat predictions. It's kind of easier. We'll go

345
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: through those a little quicker. All right, who will leave

346
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: the team in receiving yards? I think we're on the

347
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: same page here. Well, I agree. I think it's gonna

348
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: go over with House again. Yeah. I mean he barely

349
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: got over it last year. I think he'll be flirting

350
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: with a thousand because I'm more curious about where you

351
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 1: got Macklin. What what number? If you had to attach

352
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 1: the number to Jeremy mackwin, would you It's so difficult

353
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: because we don't we haven't seen Joe really throw them.

354
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: I think he's more than I think it's going to say,

355
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 1: more than six hundred seven. You get und I think

356
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 1: you're having a good Yeah. I think you've been worth

357
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,360
Speaker 1: the invest six and seven. Yeah. And I think Perraman

358
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,479
Speaker 1: is also right in that mix too. That's like that's

359
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 1: the ultimate wild card for this receiving Well, if you

360
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: think about it, if if Perriman and Macklin equal what

361
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: could be like a thousand plus receiver, and then what

362
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: D's doing, then you're okay, Yeah, I think that they

363
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: definitely will. I think when you add up Macklyn Perriman.

364
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,400
Speaker 1: At the end of the year, you'll be But I mean,

365
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 1: a thousand doesn't really do much for you. But I

366
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: think that Perryman probably puts up close to five hundred

367
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 1: six hundred and Maclean's probably six D seven hundred. Yeah,

368
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: I would go a little bit more, probably for both

369
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: of them. I think, really, I like that you like

370
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: that passing game. I'm going they're going to run the

371
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 1: ball a lot more this year. They are. They are

372
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 1: going to run the ball a lot, all right, he

373
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: will lead the team in receptions. I'm gonna go with

374
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: Danny Woodhead. Yeah, offensive MVP Danny Woodhead and able to

375
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,679
Speaker 1: argue with that, and I think that that's okay to

376
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 1: our previous discussion, it's okay if your offense can still

377
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,119
Speaker 1: be potent if he's leading in receptions. My concern is

378
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 1: if he's your m v P. Yeah, here in the

379
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: PPR League fantasy you should be drafting Danny Woodhead. By

380
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 1: the way, I just here's the thing with wood Head

381
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: real quick. I do have concerns about durability over the

382
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: course of the season. I mean, he played one Priests

383
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 1: game and played like six snaps and then he was

384
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: he was injured for two weeks. Now he's back out

385
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 1: there practice. And I don't know how you guys feel

386
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 1: about this, but I feel like, especially in our our

387
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: line of work and for fans, I think you have

388
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: to have two separate conversations. Obviously, everything that we're saying

389
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: here is always caveated by if they stay healthy, right right,

390
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: like we could. I mean, I think it's a good

391
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: thing to bring up, especially with an older back that's

392
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: been dinged up and coming off in I c L.

393
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: But like everything is subject to change basedelf of injury. Yeah,

394
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: for sure, all right, how many passing yards? Have? What

395
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 1: do you have last year? I think that he's lower

396
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 1: than that. I think he's just over four thousand. Yeah

397
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: I said four thousand, Yeah, four thousand and one passing yards,

398
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: So he crosses that barrier. But yeah, I mean he

399
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: chucked it. He led the league. I want to say,

400
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 1: in most attempts, most in attempts last year, that will

401
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 1: not happen this What's what's more? The most important number

402
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 1: though in terms of joke, So it's the turnover ratio,

403
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: which was last you have? He had twenty and fifteen

404
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 1: touchdounds fifteen he's gotta he's got to be more range. Yeah,

405
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,400
Speaker 1: that's what that's he needs to improve that number for sure.

406
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 1: Totally agree how many rushing yards with Terence West half Well,

407
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: we said that he the Rabys are gonna run the

408
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: ball more, right, So I agree with that. I don't

409
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 1: think he's gonna be quite over a thousand. Really, I

410
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 1: think that he's going to be well. I've said before

411
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 1: that I think he has the ability to be a

412
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 1: thousand yard rusher. But what we've scene out here in

413
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: training camp in the preseason, it doesn't look like going

414
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: into the season the rushing game is gonna blow the

415
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 1: doors off. I think it's going to be better than

416
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 1: it was last year. I definitely think it's gonna be

417
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: better than was last year. Twenty in the league last year,

418
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: So I don't think it's gonna be twenty eight. But

419
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: I don't know that they're going to be. And the

420
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: other thing too, is like Buck Allen came on strong

421
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 1: and maybe it's a buy committee. I mean, your boy,

422
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: he's gonna get he's got to get his carries him

423
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: if he wants a right. The last year, West also

424
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: had Cande Dixon eat into his carries. So you're not

425
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: for a portion of the season, for the first four

426
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: games and then even when when Canna came back, and

427
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 1: until about midway through the season. Yeah, I'm just all

428
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,120
Speaker 1: I'm saying is that last year when Terence West put

429
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: up with seven, he also had a guy eating into it.

430
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:47,959
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be right around the same as

431
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 1: he was year. Yeah, I agree, all right. Who will

432
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: lead the ravens and sacks this year? Well, we already

433
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: talked about judea On having a great breakout season, but

434
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: he's not gonna pass Old Faithful through all sucks, the

435
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: Wiley veteran. He had eight Suggs and I think that

436
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: he will still be the leader in this in this

437
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: category yet eight. I think he's eight to ten. I'm

438
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 1: going Judon. I think Judon edges out Suggs. I think

439
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: it's a close battle all year, but I think he

440
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 1: gets them. I think he I put jude On in

441
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: the eighth and ten. I think that Suggs is they

442
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: are looking to give him more, spell him a little

443
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: bit more. I think that that was part of the

444
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: reason why they brought in Bowser, part of the reason

445
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 1: why why they brought in Tim Williams was to give

446
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 1: Terrell Suggs a little more time off in past rush situations.

447
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: We all know Darrell Suggs at this point of his career,

448
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,400
Speaker 1: his best attribute might be his smart his mind. Yeah,

449
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 1: he can read the offense and tell the defense what

450
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 1: is coming, convey that to his teammates. And just his

451
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 1: run stuffing ability, just his knack for sniff and stuff

452
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 1: out little screens things like that. I mean, he is

453
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: great on first and second down. He's still really good

454
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: on third down. But I think that he's gonna get

455
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,879
Speaker 1: some relief in that area and Judon will not. I

456
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: think Judan will be let off the chain in that area. Curious, Evan,

457
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 1: when you go around the country every week and talk

458
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: to different coaches, whether you're preparing for a Ravens game,

459
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: this is when it would come up. Do you do

460
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: you get the sense from other coaches and offensive coordinators

461
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 1: that Suggs is still a feared player that they kind

462
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: of game planned against all week. I think he yes.

463
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 1: In this fear is always a sensitive term. I've only

464
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: heard a few coaches actually sort of admit to being

465
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: that concerned. It's kind of a funny thing in our

466
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 1: business when you ask people questions, I always leave out

467
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 1: the word concerned because they always hate the second they

468
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: hear concerned, they turn their brain off. We always know

469
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 1: that Ed Reid was the guy that I remember teams

470
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,439
Speaker 1: having that approach where they would admit to fear. I

471
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 1: think with Sugs it's it's more to the fact that

472
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 1: they feel like he had They have to worry. They

473
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: have to take care of him first and then make

474
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 1: decisions afterwards, which falls into that category of concern or prioritize.

475
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: They prioritize too, Ral Suggs above all else in that

476
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 1: front um and then to the picks. I think your

477
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 1: point is is the safest, but I would agree that

478
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 1: Sucks is still in a position too. You hate to

479
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: say fault. He almost falls into like seven sacks if

480
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 1: he gets three more than Tim. All right, yeah, yeah, um,

481
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 1: all right. Who will lead the ravens and interceptions this season?

482
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 1: What's my defensive mvpre I'm gonna agree with that. Yeah,

483
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: what do you have last year? I get through before

484
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 1: last year, so dropped about two more. He did drop

485
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: a few of them. Yeah, and uh, you know he's

486
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: been working on that jugs We're seeing this off season.

487
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: Maybe a little bit. I think that he's gonna get

488
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 1: a number of tip balls. I think the pressure upfront

489
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: that's a lot improved is just gonna create more understress

490
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 1: throws from quarterbacks where they kind of sale him and

491
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 1: he can be on the back end. I think also

492
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: the addition of Tonny Jefferson playing a little bit more

493
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 1: in the box, enabling Eric Weddle to be more of

494
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: that range safety will lead to more interceptions with Wettle.

495
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: And let's be honest, the Brandon Carr and Jimmy Smith

496
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: are not interception cornerbacks, you know. I just they are

497
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 1: going to get some pep us. They can be locked down,

498
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,120
Speaker 1: physical guys, good press corners, but they're not guys who

499
00:23:58,160 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: take a lot of chances. You get a lot of picks,

500
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: make a lot of plays like that. So I think

501
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 1: Eric Weddle is probably better players around him, better pass rush,

502
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 1: and if he makes up for the drops that he

503
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 1: had last year, then he's already passed his total from

504
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 1: last season. Yeah, where will the defense finish this year? Ranked?

505
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 1: I say top three? You gotta make you gotta give

506
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: me a position. You can't say top three. You gotta

507
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 1: give me a number, Give me a number okay, three,

508
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: but going one is this yards per game allowed? Like

509
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: this is another thing I think when he out yards

510
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: yards allowed, I'll go forward four four. Who are the

511
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 1: three that are better? Can you name him off top

512
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: of you? You can say Seattle shoes, um, those That's why.

513
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,959
Speaker 1: But like I think scoring defense is it's more important.

514
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: I kind of agree to and I don't, and I'm

515
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: not sure. I think there's still in that that I

516
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: always h five range, but like that's where the way

517
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: that New England plays, And I think Pittsburgh would be

518
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: much better this year defensively. I always feel like the

519
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 1: Ravens might be better off rank higher and yards loud

520
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 1: than scoring, because I think the Ravens defense might be

521
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 1: on the field a lot and thust In well, I

522
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 1: guess that it hurts you in yards too. Yeah, I

523
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm number one, number one in in yards

524
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 1: on yards, Yeah, I think we need to keep that

525
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 1: as a consistent thing. I'm going number one. Look, they

526
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: could be. I mean when you get into one, two

527
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 1: or three, you're we're kind of sweating hairs. But I

528
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 1: think they were number one through what twelve weeks last year? Yeah,

529
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 1: and they finished, They finished seven. Yeah, yeah, but they were.

530
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,639
Speaker 1: They were really good last year and then they kind

531
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: of collapsed at the end of the season when they

532
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: were worn down. But um, they look we talked about

533
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: this Unscripted this week. They they're big priority this offseason

534
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: was to get the pieces that they can now win

535
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,120
Speaker 1: those games. If you get back into that same situation

536
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 1: against Pittsburgh and there's that last drive at the end

537
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 1: of the game. They have the horses that they're not

538
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 1: going to give up what an ad R drive to

539
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger and the Stelers. They have the pieces to

540
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 1: avoid that this year. So I think that they're going

541
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 1: to be a great defense. Yeah, all right, last one.

542
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: Where does the offense finish the year? Right? But you

543
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 1: gotta get a number. Let's go ahead, here your number

544
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: last year? Okay, this year seventeen. I think they match it.

545
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go impro. I'm gonna go a little higher

546
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: than that, I think. Okay, well, in the middle of

547
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 1: the pack. I'll go right in the middle of the pack.

548
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 1: We said it yesterday on you know when we did Unscripted.

549
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,359
Speaker 1: Great defense, great special teams, solid offense and going right

550
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,120
Speaker 1: in the middle of the pack. Is is I think, well,

551
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: if the Ravens are best offense, Yeah, and I think

552
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,640
Speaker 1: that's the way to look at, almost somewhat arbitrary to say, okay,

553
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: there to plate, but fifty if you're in the middle

554
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 1: of the pack, which seventeen was um but then that's

555
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 1: where you need to take the deeper dive into what

556
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: numbers are they strong in? Are they getting some big plays?

557
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: I mean the yards per game can be inflated by

558
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: a lot of passes to last year Dennis Pido or

559
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,719
Speaker 1: this year. I mean there needs to be some explosiveness

560
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 1: to this game, and the running game can't be twenty.

561
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: I don't think that this offense is gonna I think

562
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:05,439
Speaker 1: that's the more interesting running game has to be. But

563
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,400
Speaker 1: I don't think that this is gonna be an offense

564
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 1: that is going to march down the field for templay drives.

565
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 1: That's not how it's gonna win. I think that from

566
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,399
Speaker 1: the offense, you get a couple of big plays a

567
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 1: game that puts you in position for a touchdown or

568
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: or some field goals, and that's a success. I mean,

569
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: it is built for the big play. This year with

570
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 1: brashad with with Mike Wallace and Macklin I mean those

571
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 1: are three big play ride receivers. Danny Woodhead can be

572
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: your guy in third and three that can move the

573
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 1: chains and things like that. But primarily I expect them

574
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: to be taking some shots on offense. Now the difficult

575
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 1: part and where there's gonna be a some rub in

576
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: the passing game, as if you're doing that too much

577
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: and you're just getting three and ounce and putting that

578
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: defense right back on the field, there's gonna be some

579
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: groans about this defense is playing too many snaps if

580
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: you're just trying to be a big attack offense. I

581
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: also would say this, though, I thought what we saw

582
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: last year was when that big play was some of

583
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: the most effective was not long passes down the field.

584
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 1: It was a slants over the middle where which pairman

585
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: gets it and then go seven yards. The same thing

586
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: with Mike Wallace. They need to hit those guys in

587
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 1: space and let it make some place. Um, all right,

588
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 1: let's go a little broader here, And I went off

589
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 1: the predictions were off predictions, So I won that. Oh man,

590
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 1: I forgot to. I found this whole new layer to

591
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 1: the prediction business that we love in this in media,

592
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: is that we're starting to see who wins before the

593
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: prediction right for the result. But and when we talked

594
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 1: about this when we were doing a scripture this week,

595
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 1: and you made this point which I thought was interesting,

596
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: that you feel like the first quarter of the season

597
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: is going to really decide so much of where this

598
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: thing goes. Yeah. I mean, I think it's somewhat obvious

599
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: because three out of their first four opponents are in

600
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 1: the division. So if this team's won in three and

601
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: the one win came against Jacksonville, or even if it

602
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: came against Cleveland, I mean the road ahead because then

603
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: after week four you have the trip to Oakland. I

604
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: just think, and I I try to fight that, Oh,

605
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 1: it's really important for the team to start three and

606
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 1: one or four and oh or two it because of

607
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: course it is. I mean, but I think for everything

608
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 1: that surrounds this group and what they dealt with last

609
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 1: year and Joe's uncertainty, if things get off to a

610
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: rough start, I think there's an energy that could be

611
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 1: really negative. But then the reality of the division. I mean,

612
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: I just can't think of a year where they've had

613
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: three out of their first four games in the division. Yeah,

614
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 1: if you get behind the A ball in the division.

615
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 1: It's going to be really really because that's kind of

616
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: always where they've made up ground in that middle year

617
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: and then even late in the year in years past.

618
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: We have to beat the Browns and I think you

619
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 1: have to beat the Jags in London. I mean the

620
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: Jags on paper right now the way they look not

621
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: a particularly great team, and I think it's fair to say,

622
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 1: and this is all predicting or projecting, but it sets

623
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 1: up nice for them because Cincinnati looks a bit you know,

624
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 1: haggard right now based off of no Adam Jones, no

625
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: Vante's perfect, John Ross's rookie whoknews what he would have done.

626
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: But it's just another that's not there for them. So

627
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,719
Speaker 1: they're getting Cincinnati and maybe a vulnerable situation that they

628
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: wouldn't get in weeks six when they play the Bengals

629
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 1: feel like they're getting the Ravens in the vulnerable because played, yes,

630
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 1: but at least he's there. I mean, you know, Vontes

631
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: isn't there, you know, Adam Jones isn't there. Um, and

632
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 1: then the Browns are the Browns and it's at home.

633
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: I think is probably the security blanket you take into

634
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: that game. Right when you look at the a f

635
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:29,479
Speaker 1: C picture right now in terms of who's gonna win

636
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: the wild card and who's gonna be your division leaders.

637
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: I mean the Ravens I think are definitely in that talk.

638
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 1: The Bengals are too. I mean the Bengals are gonna

639
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 1: be if three teams could go from Yeah, they're they're

640
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: very good. Having seen the Chargers now, they're gonna be

641
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: much better. Kansas City people expect to be what they've been,

642
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 1: which is consistently in that tender, and the Raiders should

643
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: be very good. So that could be the f C

644
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: North of Old where three teams get in. It's gonna

645
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: be very interesting. So yeah, that's why I look at

646
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: this Bengal game. If you're talking about if two teams

647
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 1: are getting in from the n s C North, it's

648
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: gonna be you know, I think the Steelers are probably

649
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: going to make the playoffs, I mean prediction. I think

650
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 1: they look they're pretty good, darn good. Say they got

651
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 1: a great quarterback. I think that's the best offense in

652
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: the NFL and that in nels. Yes, yes, so uh.

653
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 1: We got into this a little bit on unscripted about

654
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: Week one and what we should expect from Jif Flacco

655
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: and the offense. You know, he just talked about the

656
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 1: Bengals hitting at the Ravens at the right time. Do

657
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: you feel like, and I said this on the show,

658
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not giving them an excuse. I'm not

659
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: giving them a pass for week one. Where do you

660
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: guys kind of stand on that? Well, I think you

661
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 1: have to sort of really hone in on what my

662
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: expectations are extremely low. So whether that's giving them excuses

663
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: in week one for this offense and for Joe Flacco,

664
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: I'm a big believer, especially kind of being around this

665
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: team on the periphery and seeing how Joe develops and

666
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: when he's playing, well, he's a guy that practices. He's

667
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: a guy who likes rhythm, he likes and not have

668
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 1: to think while he's out there, and likes to just

669
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: play off an instinct and timing and all those things.

670
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 1: And he's not gonna happen. I mean, that can't happen

671
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 1: in ten days. So that to me means your everything

672
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 1: shrinks and everything becomes very limited in what it is

673
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: you can do, and I just don't expect things to

674
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,959
Speaker 1: go smoothly at all. Maybe that's not a bad thing

675
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 1: against the Cincinnati Bengals defense for Joe. I mean, Joe

676
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 1: has not had his best games against the Bengals because

677
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: you're thinking years past he's tried to do too much.

678
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: I don't even I just point on it and I

679
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: don't Yeah, I don't know that. But I could take

680
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: clip side of that and say, well, if Marvin Lewis

681
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: knows he's dealing with a team that's got a small

682
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 1: deck to play with, it makes his job that much easier.

683
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 1: And that makes win what you're doing, even if they

684
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: have a better idea of what's coming, you gotta win it.

685
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 1: What you're doing, I think is what it is. Well,

686
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: it goes back to the run game. I mean, he

687
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 1: goes back to the run game, and you hope you

688
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: can hit a couple of big plays, and then you

689
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: hope that the Cincinnati's offense doesn't hit the seventy five

690
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: yard bomb to a J Green in the fourth quarter

691
00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: like they've done against the Yeah, it's me. It's a

692
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 1: Manua facturing a win with everybody else making the big

693
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 1: play in the offense just kind of holding on. But

694
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 1: here here's the thing about it to me about Joe

695
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: Flacco and saying like, you know, he hasn't had practice

696
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. I understand and I agree that

697
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: it limits him. But case Keenum a couple of years

698
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: ago for the Houston Texans. They signed him out of

699
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: a hunting blind. He was in a tree hunting deer

700
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: four days before he took on the Ravens and he

701
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: beat them. You know, are you asking to do that? Yes,

702
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 1: I'm not saying I'm not asking to put up three

703
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: three fifty three touchdowns and no picks. I'm asking Joe

704
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 1: to play well enough to win. And I think with

705
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: this defense it doesn't have to be that great. But

706
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 1: he can't. He can't lose the game. I don't think.

707
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: I don't think that, Like if he goes out there

708
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 1: and throws picks, right, if you throws two picks that

709
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, it's because he didn't have timing. No,

710
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: you should be able to protect the football at a

711
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 1: bar min him, even if you haven't been practicing. But

712
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: I think what you're assuming is that, like you're operating

713
00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 1: under the assumption that the health is not a concern,

714
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 1: that like I am taking the health out of it.

715
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: Think you can. I don't think you can take that

716
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 1: out of it and say like it's not going to

717
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 1: be an issue, don't even consider that. Maybe it's not,

718
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 1: and he feels great and he's good to go and

719
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: he's not even thinking about it. But to go there

720
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 1: and assume that that's going to be the case is

721
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 1: a leap that I don't think we can make you

722
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: think you're to be worried about the back during this game.

723
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be so hyped up on adrenaline

724
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:30,840
Speaker 1: and whatever that when you saw this last year where

725
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 1: when there is any sort of whether even if he's

726
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 1: not thinking about it or he's not feeling hurt, it

727
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: affects his footwork at times. And that's the timing I'm

728
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:44,640
Speaker 1: talking about. I'm not talking about the crossing route. It's

729
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: two different things. It's kind of shore with receivers and

730
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: Joe's health. And for a guy whose footwork has been

731
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,879
Speaker 1: under the microscope the last few years, especially ever since

732
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 1: the knee injury, to not be playing on a live

733
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: pocket at all until a week one where all those

734
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 1: things are flying and you're jacked up and you're ready

735
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: to go. That to me leads the balls going into

736
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: the side wasn't throwing until last week it's not just

737
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:13,240
Speaker 1: like he's been like the football could throw. They won't

738
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,359
Speaker 1: telling him he was throwing. He was thrown back from

739
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: up in that blind. We might need to put the

740
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 1: tape in on this case. Keenum game, I think I'm

741
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,439
Speaker 1: remembering the defense. Boy, it was a defensive dominant show.

742
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 1: I remember a shot down the sideline on the first draw, guy.

743
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,799
Speaker 1: And that's all I'm asking. It's all I'm asking. Make

744
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: a couple of good throws, deep throws, hit a couple

745
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 1: big plays, and we're good. All right. Before we let

746
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: Evan go first, I want to I want to talk

747
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 1: to you a little bit about your your career and

748
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 1: your rise, because you have lacked Garrett and I and

749
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 1: the professional standards. And it shouldn't be surprising because Evan's

750
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 1: probably the best looking one at the table here. Evan

751
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:53,360
Speaker 1: won me to you three. I think Dennis Pitto would agree.

752
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:55,800
Speaker 1: Evan's kind of Dennis pitt a kind of guy. The

753
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 1: hair is always on point, you know. So anyway, Evan,

754
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 1: you were the number two at CSN, not even not

755
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: even now. I'll give you a keel back curtain on that.

756
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 1: So and and this is more fun to me than

757
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 1: all the stuff I do now, which is great and

758
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: I'm extremely thankful for and it's awesome, but and it's good.

759
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 1: It's good advice, and I'm sure you guys have given

760
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: it to people too. In this business, you've kind of

761
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 1: kind of like find a way to get in because

762
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: it's so hard to get in, and there's never been

763
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,800
Speaker 1: a profession where there's more of, oh, we need somebody

764
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 1: with experience. Sorry, it's all how are you supposed to

765
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 1: get experience? No one's gonna hire anyone that doesn't have experience.

766
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,400
Speaker 1: So what I did at CSN is I was an intern,

767
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 1: and then I was out of college, so I told

768
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: them I was getting college credit for it when I wasn't.

769
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: And I told my boss that, and like after a month,

770
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 1: I was like, look, man, I'm not really getting credit

771
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 1: for this. Do you need me to take a community

772
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 1: college class? He's like, now, you're good. One of the

773
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 1: reasons why is because I could go every day. Everybody

774
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: else had class to go to, so I just went

775
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 1: every day. Uh so this is at this studio. And

776
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:02,319
Speaker 1: once I got to the studio, I kind of got

777
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: to see how things were operating, got to learn everything

778
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: about this sort of the mechanics of TV. And then

779
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 1: I got to meet a guy named Brent Harris and

780
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,280
Speaker 1: Mark vogel Song, who were the Baltimore Bureau of Comcast Sportsnet.

781
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,400
Speaker 1: And what that meant was they covered everything in Baltimore,

782
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,800
Speaker 1: the big thing being the Ravens obviously. So I remember

783
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 1: meeting them at a hockey game and I said, Hey,

784
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,800
Speaker 1: I live in Baltimore. Can I just like tag along

785
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 1: with you guys and I just go with you and

786
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 1: watch you guys work and see what it is you do.

787
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,399
Speaker 1: And they were like all right. But eventually I went

788
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 1: with him a couple of times. I'm like, oh, this

789
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,439
Speaker 1: guy is not that bad to hang out with. Mark.

790
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 1: Everybody called Deuce said hey, you know, pick up that

791
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:44,240
Speaker 1: light and like, I'm former college athlete, pretty good shape,

792
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 1: I could lift a lot of stuff, so I could

793
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:52,479
Speaker 1: just I became. My value became that I would show

794
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: up whenever they asked me, and I would carry everything.

795
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 1: You're a packel, I was a packnel. So this was

796
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 1: early on. So I would come to Ravens training up

797
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 1: when it was in Westminster and carry all the lights out,

798
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 1: set up the live shot. So this is this is

799
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 1: how I got in at CSN, but I wasn' getting

800
00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:09,360
Speaker 1: paid for any of this. I was still an intern.

801
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,520
Speaker 1: Eventually became a freelance production assistant, but I only got

802
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,879
Speaker 1: paid when I would go to the studio and law

803
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 1: games and do all the grunt work that uh. In television,

804
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,800
Speaker 1: people know that working it is behind the scenes and

805
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,239
Speaker 1: they do a lot of the stuff to make the

806
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,799
Speaker 1: shows go on the air. But whenever I had an

807
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,280
Speaker 1: off day, I'd come out to, uh see what brenton

808
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,359
Speaker 1: Deuce were doing out with the Ravens. So I sort

809
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 1: of became and this is where I saw I met

810
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 1: you guys. Uh. And then eventually it was right when

811
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 1: the digital media thing was happening. They had nothing to

812
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 1: put on the website, and so I was like, hey,

813
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,360
Speaker 1: can I just do stuff that we put only on

814
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: the website? And they initially were like no, no, no,

815
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,720
Speaker 1: And then finally one guy was like and it was Rodnest,

816
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 1: it was Brent and Deuced saying, look, we're not going

817
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 1: to create any more content for the website, so if

818
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: you want anything, And that was them doing me a

819
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 1: solid like Evan's doing it. So long story short that

820
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,320
Speaker 1: when I was here all those years, uh, and it's

821
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 1: It's good advice to young people in any business. But

822
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 1: dress and you make fun of the way, like in

823
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: the dress for the job making fun of it. I'm

824
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: jealous dress dressed for the job and approached the job

825
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 1: that you have do it all for the job you want,

826
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 1: because I could have shown up in jeans and you know,

827
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: a polo or a T shirt to lift lights and

828
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 1: us up. But I always came a nice button down

829
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 1: maybe a coat on. Because I also never knew, hey,

830
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: maybe I should stand up and put it on the internet.

831
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: And so I started walking around and people thought, oh,

832
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 1: he must be Brent's, you know, number two, or he

833
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: might must. I was never on Comcast Sports Net until

834
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 1: like barely. I mean I would started doing stuff for

835
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:48,319
Speaker 1: CBS before I even like see us, and through a

836
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,720
Speaker 1: couple of things on TV every once in a while.

837
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 1: But I never was a full time employee there. I

838
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: was always a freelancer. I'm very thankful to the Ravens

839
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,400
Speaker 1: because they also allowed me to be around, like they

840
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,280
Speaker 1: gave me a credit showing games when we were cable partners.

841
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 1: They let me fly on the charter again. My only

842
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: value was really carrying, like and carrying cameras and things

843
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: like that. But it gave me the entree into the

844
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 1: sort of being around the NFL um and that's kind.

845
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,200
Speaker 1: And then the CBS thing happened through lacrosse and calling games.

846
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,399
Speaker 1: But I had a nice resume from doing things here

847
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: where they aired. Who knows did they ever air? Probably not?

848
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,720
Speaker 1: But I did them, uh, And it was enough for

849
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: for bosses in New York to say, well, let's give

850
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 1: me a shot doing college football, and that's kind of

851
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: where it went from there. I remember seeing you and

852
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 1: like during March Madness, I look up the TV, you know,

853
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:43,360
Speaker 1: like that's Evan He's doing the postgame interview and I

854
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: was like, dang man, he's really making it. You know,

855
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: it was cool. I was really happy to see that.

856
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,840
Speaker 1: And now obviously you're on the sideline of the Super Bowl.

857
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's really blown up. It's been really

858
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 1: cool to well, I appreciate it. It's fun and it is.

859
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:59,359
Speaker 1: It's good to know there are some bosses out there.

860
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 1: I've had some CBS, and you know, there are a

861
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 1: couple of CS and the people here too, where they

862
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: don't aren't so reliant on He did X. He was

863
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: here for four years, then he moved to this network

864
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 1: for four years. If you can do the job, and

865
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I know Hardball's big thing is meritocracy. If

866
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: you're good enough and you're better than somebody we have,

867
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: or you're like, I don't really care what your past is.

868
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 1: And that's I've benefited from that because I've been given

869
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 1: some jobs, especially the last couple of the first few years,

870
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,840
Speaker 1: where I had no business doing them. But then you

871
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: do them and people like, it's pretty good, and we'll

872
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: keep giving them to you. Right, they don't post your

873
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: resume on live TV. It's the funny thing I did

874
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: graduating college. This isn't like a Georgio Larry get in

875
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 1: college credit. I didn't. I didn't get credit for that internship,

876
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,759
Speaker 1: but I did graduate from Delaware. But I know one

877
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: has ever ever asked it's all about the hitting you

878
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 1: tube blank or they put in the DVD. How's he sound?

879
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 1: How's he look? Sign them up? For sure? When you

880
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,359
Speaker 1: talk about you talk about dressing for the job at WANT,

881
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 1: what do you think of makes new jeans? Here's back

882
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 1: it up, Yeah, let's back it up here. So we're

883
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: getting ready to shoot unscripted. Evan being the host of course,

884
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 1: and I come in and I'm like, guys, check out

885
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,920

886
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: jeans on set, right, And I didn't really own a

887
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 1: pair of nice geans. That always looked at Evans last

888
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 1: year and I was like, he hasn't he has nice jeans.

889
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 1: So I'm like, I'm gonna go out and buy something.

890
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 1: So I head over to Cole's last minute to go

891
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: buy some jeans a shirt to return. I returned the

892
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,360
Speaker 1: shirt They're only gonna give you five bucks for it,

893
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: which I'm bummed. I grabbed some jeans I thought were

894
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,479
Speaker 1: thirty dollars, that's what it said, ring them up four

895
00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 1: dollars and eighties cents. I went back and got three more,

896
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:47,320
Speaker 1: including a duplicate pair of SPA everybody listening, maybe that

897
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: would be a poll question. Nextio scripted who had the

898
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 1: best jeans on the set? And maybe, I mean you

899
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,800
Speaker 1: kind of buried the It's been cool to see because honestly,

900
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 1: I think yours might have looked the best. Good thank you.

901
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,399
Speaker 1: The model that had him on was rough, but they

902
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 1: were dark. They had a light little trimmed to them.

903
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: And yeah, I was jealous because, as you mentioned, I

904
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,360
Speaker 1: take pride in my jeans, and I have never gotten

905
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 1: I mean, the tax on some of my jeans is

906
