1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 1: Welcome into the Lounge presented by DraftKings. I wouldn't say 2 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 1: it's a misery Monday after the twenty two loss in Cleveland. 3 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: This one didn't sting as much as the Steelers loss 4 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 1: for me. You can you can speak to your own 5 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 1: emotions after this one, Garrett, But for me, you know, 6 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:26,080 Speaker 1: after seeing Lamargo down, seeing the Ravens fall into a 7 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 1: big hole and I'm talking big hole early in this game, 8 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: at one point they're trailing two to three, I thought 9 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: it was pretty much over right. And to see the 10 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: Ravens rally they the way they did, to have a 11 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 1: chance to win at the end and only lose twenty 12 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: four to twenty two, it doesn't feel like a misery 13 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 1: Monday to me. Now. The injuries not it's notwithstanding, but 14 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: it left you with a left me with a different 15 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: kind of feeling than I did a week ago. So 16 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 1: it's somewhere between a misery Monday and as size him 17 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: up Monday, how how would MOPI Monday? Um? Yeah, I 18 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: can understand that. Um you know, in a strange way, 19 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: like you feel a little bit better just with the 20 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 1: I guess the no quit attitude of the team when 21 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: you're in that big of a hole and you have 22 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: a backup quarterback come in and and play pretty well, 23 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: and then you know, you come out of the game 24 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: feeling like, oh my gosh, almost had the chance. How 25 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: did you not get those extra yards? And over? And 26 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: uh after the one, I thought they were going to 27 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: win it. When we recovered the onside kick, I thought 28 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: the game was ours. Well. I think I think everybody 29 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 1: on the Raven sideline thought that. I also think everybody 30 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: in that stadium thought that. I've said, We've had this 31 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 1: discussion in a million times, and I've said that it 32 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: just feels like, as someone who grew up rooting for 33 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: the Browns, there's been ways that like it seems like 34 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: games are completely decided and the Browns lose it. I 35 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: mean the Will Yeah, there's the Will Hill game that 36 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: was an obvious one. There was uh even last year's game. 37 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: Lamars in the locker room, comes out and fourth down 38 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: and throws that touchdown past the Hollywood. Like, there's all 39 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: sorts of examples like that against in this series and 40 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: then just in the Browns history in general, and you 41 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 1: can just feel it that way. After that onside kick, 42 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: we're just bounced off the guy and you're like, you 43 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: gotta be kidding me. As a side note, as a 44 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: side note that we're getting into actually our take on 45 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 1: the game. But I was. I was in the press 46 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: box at that point, and at the end of the game. 47 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: I always had to get down to the field at 48 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: the end of the game to do the walk off 49 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 1: interview and just capture any kind of crazy moments that 50 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: are happening at an end of the game. Well, depending 51 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: on the stadium, it can very how long it takes 52 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: to get down there. So that happens, and I jump 53 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: up from our computer and go to run because I 54 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: wasn't down there at that point because it was basically 55 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: it was a two score game, and I'm like, all right, 56 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: well that was the likelihood of recovering the onside kick 57 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: is not high? Yeah, I mean, and like, just it 58 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: all happened so fast, like they've got to score a 59 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: touchdown and then they've got to recover an onside kick. 60 00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: So anyway, so I was in I was in the 61 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: press box. So they get the onside kick, and I 62 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 1: basically jump up from my seat and go to run 63 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: down and all the elevators are locked. They they shut 64 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 1: down the elevators for the coaching staff that's in the 65 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 1: box to come down at the end of the game, 66 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 1: and I'm like trying to convince them to take me down. 67 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: I'm like, there's gonna be enough time you can get down, 68 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: you can get back there, like now we're not allow 69 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: to dude after the two minute warning. So then I'm 70 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: like they're like, well, there's a freight elevator. I'm all right, 71 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: let's go to the freight elevator. So I'm trying to 72 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: get on the freight elevator and that's taken forever and 73 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, is it coming, Like is there is anyone 74 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: going to answer this? And they're like, I don't know. 75 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: Sometimes he shows up, sometimes he doesn't. I'm like, all right, fine, 76 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: So then I start London. I start running down the ramp. 77 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: You know, the long ramp, long rampar Jackson Draft story 78 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: all over it. Seriously, I have blisters on my feet 79 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: from that example from this one. So anyway, I basically 80 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: get down in a full sweat two for the first 81 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: level as all the Browns fans are pouring out chanting 82 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: here we go Brownies the dog Pound chant because they 83 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: had gotten to stop on fourth down. So I missed 84 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: that entire didn't see who I was sprinting down the 85 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: ram and then I'm just basically all the Browns fans 86 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: are walking the opposite direction of me, and I have 87 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: to make the Once I finally arrived, I had to 88 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: wait for the crowd to pass and make the sad, 89 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: depressed walk to the postgame interview room. Well, I can 90 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 1: tell you what happened, though there's another sack I didn't want. 91 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: I went back and watched it. That was the first 92 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: thing I did when I got backed to the press box. 93 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,119 Speaker 1: I went back and watched it. So anyway, enough about 94 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: my trials and tribulations of getting down to the field 95 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 1: at the end of the game. Um, but look, I 96 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: think just to the point, I feel like we all 97 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: thought that they were gonna win it after that onside kick. 98 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: A little surprising that they weren't able to do it. 99 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: Just felt like all the momentum was going in their direction, 100 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: and um, it would have been one to steal. But 101 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: I guess I agree with you that, like, it doesn't 102 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: feel as disappointing when you come back and you fight 103 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: that way to up yourself back in the game. Well, 104 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: I mean, how many miracle games did the Ravens win 105 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: over the first you know whatever two thirds of the season. 106 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: But I think the scales are balancing a little bit 107 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: right And now you've kind of lost these two potential 108 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: miracle games where you know, in Pittsburgh they come all 109 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: the way back and you can you can steal it 110 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: on the two point conversion, and you don't you know, 111 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: you had a chance for a miracle with an onside 112 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,679 Speaker 1: kick recovery and and then steal one with Tyler Huntley 113 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: and you come up just short. It's like, you know, 114 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: we've we've talked about that earlier on. We said these 115 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: things have a tendency to balance themselves out, and uh, 116 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: and that's what we're seeing right now. You know, like 117 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: we've said a number of times, the Ravens are a 118 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: good team. They're not a great team right now, just 119 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: by virtue of all these injuries. Certainly when you lose 120 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: the mar Jackson on the first play of the second 121 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: quarter in Klais Campbell on in the first quarter after 122 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: six snaps, and you're like, oh my goodness, gracious, I mean, 123 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: have we hit the tipping point here on injuries where 124 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: you just there's just no way that you can win 125 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: a game in the ultimate you know, competitive sport of 126 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: the NFL, uh and and the Ravens almost did. Like 127 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: it's pretty incredible, And to me kind of my takeaway 128 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: was like, you know, Lamar deserves like a ton of 129 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: credit for what he did in the first half of 130 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: the season or two thirds of the season or whatever 131 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: it was. But like, let's just step back and say, like, 132 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: this is John Harball's team. Man, it's it's it's it's 133 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: a John Harball show. And I think that you're seeing 134 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: that this year. Like even when Lamar goes down, right, 135 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: like we all say like the Ravens are what they 136 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: are because of Lamar Jackson or have been the past 137 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: couple of years. I think the Ravens are who they 138 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: are because of John Harball, you know, and like because 139 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: they always won this game in Cleveland without Lamar, they 140 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 1: want a game in Chicago without Lamar. And I think 141 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: in large part because of kind of the the tone 142 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 1: that John Harball sets and it's it's not just John, 143 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just you know, the Ravens depth I think, 144 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 1: you know is on display too. But like I'm just 145 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: impressed with the way that John constantly is like, no, 146 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: we're not gonna make excuses and say woe is me, 147 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: and and like act like we can't win just because 148 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: we have a bunch of injuries. We're gonna step up, 149 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna play tough and and whatever. We're gonna give 150 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: ourselves a shot. And like his mentality. I've just I've 151 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: been impressed with this entire time, and I was particularly 152 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: impressed with even last night after the game. And he's like, 153 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: everybody's doubting, you know, well, if Lamar's out the rest 154 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: of the way with these reigning four games, there's no 155 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: way the Ravens can make the playoffs, you know. And 156 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: he's like, now, nah, nah dog, you know we're gonna 157 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: keep rolling, you know. And that's just what it is. 158 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: Tory Smith, who does our pregame show, which UH listeners 159 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: can check out before every Raven's home game on our app, 160 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: our website, social media, Facebook, YouTube anyway, little plug there, 161 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: but tor Uh. He has said multiple times this year 162 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: that he thinks this is John Harball's finest coaching job 163 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: UH in his career. And now he's been around a 164 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: long time. He's won a lot of games, a lot 165 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: of good seasons. But the reason he feels that way 166 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: is just because of all the injuries of the Ravens 167 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: have dealt with and for the team to still be 168 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: in the thick of it is a testament to kind 169 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: of that tone and that mentality, uh, that that John sets. 170 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: This kind of goes to this email. We've got a 171 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: couple of emails. It's always the inbox louts and fills up, 172 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: you know after the games on Sunday, good or bad. Um, 173 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: And I think to your point at the start, I 174 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: don't feel like the email the inboxes as angry as 175 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: it was last week. And this email from Patrick Coon Uh, 176 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: I think underscores that point. You can email us with 177 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: the lounge at Ravens dot NFL dot net email says 178 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: what an effort. The guys played their butts off with 179 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: no quit. Obviously, nobody wanted to see Lamarco down, but 180 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: injuries in this game happened as we all know, and 181 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: the team really rallied behind Tyler and they did great. 182 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 1: I'm so impressed with their desire. But I love the 183 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 1: way our receivers. We'll get first downas also back to 184 00:08:55,120 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: the line, the fact is this team continues. Yeah, yeah, 185 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: there was a little chase shot. Um. The fact is 186 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: this team continues to deal with adversity and still continues 187 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: to perform. It was a rough loss, but I'm so 188 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: damn proud of this team. Take care. So I think 189 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: that there's truth in that now now. I I also 190 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: think in the Ravens players and coaches, I think would 191 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: be the first to say, well, all that's true. They're 192 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: not looking at They're not looking for too many pats 193 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: in the back after the game. I just don't think 194 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: that like there's a moral moral victory, uh, sentiment that 195 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: this team is going to have their They know that 196 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: their's their goal is first and foremost to still win 197 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: the division, which thank you for San Francisco forty nine, 198 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: just for the little help there. Uh, the Ravens are 199 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: still in control of their own destiny and say, in 200 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 1: first place, two straight losses, no harm, no foul, still 201 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: leading division, with control of their own destiny the rest 202 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: of the way. Yeah. Absolutely. And and you know, to 203 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: the people who were talking about, well what are the 204 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: Ravens chances? How long can they hang on to the 205 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: division lead? You know, well, I think, like we said 206 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: last week, the Ravens gotta get two wins. I think 207 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: that they get to ten and they have a pretty 208 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: good shot of making it into the playoffs, either as 209 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: the division winner or as a wild card. Can they 210 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: have one of those wins comes against the Bengals. I 211 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 1: think it's gonna come down to the Bengals. I think 212 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: it's gonna come down to the Bengals game. Um, can 213 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: the Ravens do it? Like? They have the Packers up next? 214 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 1: The Packers are one of the best teams in the league. 215 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: You know then that we have the Bengals, the Rams 216 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 1: like another one of the best teams in the league, 217 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 1: and then finished with the Steelers. Can the Ravens do it? Like? 218 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: Why not? Man? Just why not? Like trot Tyler Huntley 219 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: out there, and I'll still say why not? I just 220 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: I just think that this team, like we've said all year, 221 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: you don't know what to expect. Who knows? Like who 222 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: thought that the defense would shut the Browns out in 223 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: the second half without Clais Campbell, without Marlon Humphrey and 224 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: all the injuries that they've had on defense. Like you know, 225 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: when when the took an early lead in this game 226 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: and Clais Campbell was on the sideline, You're I'm thinking, Oh, 227 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: that's not a good combination with the best running attack 228 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Nick Chubb and Gareem Hunt. They're just 229 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: gonna ram it down the Ravens throats, you know, when 230 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: when they can just run out the clock and the 231 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: Baltimore defense steffens and and did they hold the Browns 232 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: to forty rushing yards? No, but it wasn't far off. 233 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: Like the Browns did not run the ball particularly well. 234 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,839 Speaker 1: I mean they put up a hundred yards total. Nick 235 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: Chubb had fifty nine. Uh Johnson had twenty two. Like, 236 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: I mean, pretty good, pretty good. They ran about twenty 237 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: nine times for a hundred yards. You're averaging about three 238 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: point three a carry there. Not bad. You'll take that 239 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: against the Browns, right and so like, I just think 240 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: that as much as you want to look forward and 241 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: try to predict, like I've written and said a million times, 242 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,199 Speaker 1: like this team has shown me, don't don't count them out. 243 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 1: No matter who's missing, it doesn't matter. They're gonna make 244 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: it close, they're gonna make it interesting. Obviously, you want 245 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 1: Lamar on the field, you know, he gives them a better, 246 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: much better shot. But how how we played pretty downmill too, 247 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: So I'm not going to count them out. Well, here's 248 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: another email already. This is from Chris George at the 249 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 1: Lange Ravens dot NFL dot Net. I know there's plenty 250 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: of negatives to take away from that game and the 251 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: Ravens recent record of the last two, but I left 252 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: the game feeling pretty good about the raven season. Now, 253 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: we've said all year, next man up, and the Ravens 254 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: seemed to do better than any other team in that situation. 255 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: In the first quarter. I was starting to think, you 256 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: know what, maybe we pushed that too far, but the 257 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: defense settled in the second half and they played some 258 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 1: whites out defense. On the top of that, Huntley, he said, 259 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: actually looked better than Lamar in his opinion. Now, I'm 260 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: not saying for one minute, they probably better than Lamar 261 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: has the past couple of weeks. Yeah, Now, he said, 262 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: Lamar is clearly one of the best in the NFL. 263 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: And as I said previously, Uh, he's what I love 264 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: watching the Ravens when I first started watching football. And 265 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: no one can do But no one can deny that 266 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: Lamar struggling right now. Um, he had to put the 267 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: team on his back in the first half of the season. Uh. 268 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: And he seems fatigue and struttling to stab out of 269 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: it currently. Um, so he thought maybe that maybe that 270 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: this injury could almost be a chance to rest and reset. Says, 271 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: I'm no expert on football, and I'm probably just biased 272 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: for the Ravens, but I do think that the Ravens 273 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 1: have shown that they are one of the greatest teams 274 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: overall teams, uh, in the NFL. What other teams? I 275 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: think that what other team could lose as many starters 276 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: throughout the season and still have a winning record. So 277 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 1: I think that's all really well said. Yeah, I think 278 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: that's all really well said. Like and I think comes 279 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,439 Speaker 1: season's end, even if the Ravens don't make the playoffs, 280 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: I think you can look at this and say, wow, man, 281 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: like they battled. They battled because it looked like from 282 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: the beginning season with Marcus Peters and Gus Edwards went 283 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: down the same practice within a few plays like that 284 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: they were toast, you know, and then on top of 285 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 1: all the other injuries that they had and like to 286 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: be in this position already speaks to the resolve of 287 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: this team no matter how it finishes. To quite honestly, 288 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: but that doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It's not that 289 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: doesn't like that speaks to the program John Harball has built. 290 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 1: But I think that we've known for a little while 291 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: that the Ravens are a team full full of resolve 292 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: and a team that can overcome adversity or at least 293 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: battle it to the bitter bitter end. Right, So, like, 294 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: I think we can feel that way about the Ravens season. 295 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: They're not going to feel if they miss the playoffs. 296 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: They will feel disappointment, obviously, UM, But like and and 297 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: then to the point of Lamar, I agree with that. 298 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: I actually I think that like and obviously we all 299 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: hope that Lamar is back on the field to face 300 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: the Packers. That will be the biggest question of the week. UM. 301 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: John Harbor said after the game, basically, no update. We'll see, 302 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: We'll see this morning. I'm just I'm sure there will 303 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: be the chef the rap report report this morning. You know, 304 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: it didn't sound to me like it was a given 305 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: that he's going to have like tests like an m 306 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: R I or something. I don't know, you know, Um said, 307 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: we'll have to see how it responds. Because he was 308 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: asked as a follow up question, is he getting additional tests? 309 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: He said, we'll just have to see how it responds. 310 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: So I'm sure that will be coming later today. Um 311 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: but anyway, like you hope Lamar can play. But I 312 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: feel like regardless, like a bit of a reset for 313 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 1: Lamar maybe isn't the worst thing at this point of 314 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: the season. And and like we just got done talking about, 315 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: I think this really comes down to the Bengals game. 316 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: Even if the Ravens were to to lose against the Packers, 317 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: which it wouldn't be good, you know, but let's say 318 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: they lose and the Bengals win this upcoming week. Now 319 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: you're tied going into ahead to med matchup for first 320 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: place in the a a f C North against the Bengals, 321 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: Like that game is everything. And if Lamar, if even 322 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: if missing a game against Green Bay, even if he 323 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: misses a game against Green Bay, if he comes back 324 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: and he's feeling and he's a little bit sharper and 325 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: just has a mental reset, because like I said, I 326 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: think it's really his head. I mean, let's not also 327 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: pretend that Lamar got off to a good start in 328 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: this game. He he did not. It looked like a 329 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: lot of what of last week. I mean, he's you know, 330 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: taking the taking the checkdown throw, but it's two yards 331 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 1: beyond the line of scrimmage and DeVante Freeman is getting blasted. 332 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 1: And then it's two yards behind the line of scrimmage 333 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: to Mark Andrews. He's getting blast Like it wasn't pretty. Yeah, 334 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: And uh so if it's a reset for lamar and 335 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: and does them some good, maybe not the worst thing 336 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: in the world. So the other thing I would say, 337 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: and I agree with this whole conversation around basically the 338 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: Ravens ability to overcome difficulty and injuries, and I think 339 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: that's part of the culture of the team in the organization. 340 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: I also think that part of the reason that they're 341 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: still very much in the the race is just because 342 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: of the dynamics of the division, Like there's not a 343 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: dominant team in the division, and the Bengals are helping 344 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: them out by losing. And recently they've had two straight games, 345 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: uh that they've lost at home, lost four yesterday in 346 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: a in an overtime game when I was like, oh man, 347 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: the forty nine is gonna blow this. They're gonna blow it, 348 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: and they had the big lead and they didn't um. 349 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: And they lost last week at home to the Chargers. 350 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: Now the Bengals remaining schedule is not a gimme either, 351 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: Like they've got a tough stretch, especially considering the way 352 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: they're playing right now. Broncos next week, and the Broncos 353 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 1: are are competing for a spot here. Then then the 354 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 1: Ravens game, then Chiefs okay, and then they close against 355 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: the Browns in Cleveland. So like, if you look around 356 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,919 Speaker 1: the division, none of these teams have like gimmes to 357 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 1: finish things out. So I do think that winning two 358 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 1: games and getting to ten and seven might be good 359 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 1: enough to do it. The one thing right now I 360 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: will say is that if the Ravens end up tied 361 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: with the Bengals, Bengals have a three and one division record. 362 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: Ravens are one in three in the division. So now 363 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,479 Speaker 1: how this plays out is there's there's still a lot 364 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: of things that have to happen there. But um, I 365 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: don't like where the Ravens sit in with the division 366 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: reck kord at this point. So ten of seven might 367 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: be good enough there to get him into a wild card. Potentially, 368 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 1: it doesn't win the division. Potentially Ravens have I don't 369 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: know that we'll get into the tiebreaker scenarios, but the 370 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: Ravens have head head winds over the Colts, who are 371 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: another another contender, the Chargers another contender. UM, so that'll 372 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: do them some good. Yeah. So alright, a couple of things, 373 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: UM that I want to hit on here. There's been 374 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 1: a good amount of talk about the two point conversion 375 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: and John Harbor's decision to go for two. When he did, 376 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: the Ravens were down by fifteen points, score touchdown UM 377 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: to make it nine. And so the decision there could 378 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: be kick a field goal and then you leave, or 379 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 1: kick the extra point and then you have a situation 380 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: where you're down eight and then you're basically the same 381 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,360 Speaker 1: situation you had against the Steelers end of a game. Well, 382 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: you're you put yourself in a spot there where you 383 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: have to get the two point conversion to the entie 384 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: the game or go for two when they did, um 385 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: and then potentially make it a seven point correct. So 386 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 1: why are you even doing the math breakdown on this? So? 387 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,439 Speaker 1: So what is? So? What is? I'm Yeah, I'm the 388 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 1: guy running on three hours of sleep, So I don't 389 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: trust any numbers that right now, the guy who can't 390 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: do any math. I'm good at math. I was I 391 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: was a great, you're good at math? Have you never 392 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: listened to this podcast? Great at math? I'm great at maths, 393 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:23,640 Speaker 1: just not when I'm running on three hours of sleep. 394 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: So anyw, I'm good. I'm getting you an advocus for Christmas. So, 395 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 1: so there's been conversation about this. What was your take. 396 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: I think it's a stupid debate, honestly, I honestly, Um, 397 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: I shouldn't say stupid, I'll say silly. I think that, Uh, 398 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 1: you always want more knowledge earlier, right, So, like, what's 399 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:52,360 Speaker 1: the advantage to waiting there? There isn't any right, So, like, 400 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 1: if if you go for it early, earlier, that enables 401 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 1: you to have a better idea of clock management and 402 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: how the rest you need to operate for the rest 403 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: to the game. If you don't get it, okay, now 404 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: you know, well we're still down nine, we need two scores. 405 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: We need to operate faster. If you do get it, well, 406 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 1: now you're only down seven, you operate in a much 407 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: different way. Like, I mean, at that point of the 408 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: game they had nine minutes left, right, Like, if you're 409 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: only down one score, like you don't you don't have 410 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: to take time outs on the next possession necessarily for 411 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,479 Speaker 1: them right, Like, like you you know how you have 412 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: to manage the clock the rest of the way, and 413 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: you always want that information earlier as opposed to later. 414 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: So the only argument that you could make, the only 415 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: argument that would make any sense in this is like, well, 416 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: the Ravens weren't in a good position at that time 417 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: to convert for two. They're like they would have been 418 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,719 Speaker 1: in a better position later in the game to actually 419 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,719 Speaker 1: make that a successful two point conversion. But why, like 420 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: what what evidence would you have that would say they 421 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: were more likely to come to actually make it a 422 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 1: successful conversion later as opposed to earlier. It doesn't make anything. 423 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 1: The other argue it could be you don't want to 424 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 1: if you if you don't get the two point version there, 425 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 1: then your team may end up quitting because they they're 426 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 1: down to scores and they feel like they're not they're 427 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 1: not in it anymore, which obviously didn't happen. I think 428 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 1: that's completely completely silly. Yeah, I mean that they had 429 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: already shown that they weren't quitting by virtue of marching 430 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: down the field when they were trailing by right, which 431 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: is which doesn't make sense. I mean they here, here's 432 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,439 Speaker 1: the thing. The Ravens needed they were going to go 433 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: for two at some point. It really this isn't a 434 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: scenario then against the Steelers where you didn't have to 435 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: go for two. Hardall made the decision to go for 436 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: two based on the circumstances of that game. But there 437 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: was no decision about going for two that was going 438 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 1: to happen. It was just a question of when you 439 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 1: go for two. So you go for two early and then, 440 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: like you just said, then you have the knowledge to 441 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: make the rest of your decisions. So so that is 442 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: just still a discussion. Exactly if you kick the extra 443 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: point in that scenario, right, and then you're down eight, 444 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 1: and then you go for two you later, right, So 445 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 1: then they Ravens scored their second touchdown with a minute 446 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: seventeen left, right. If then you don't get it, then 447 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 1: now it's like, well it's it's it's maybe too late, right, 448 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: like or you've burnt your time out by that point. 449 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,439 Speaker 1: You would have anyway, you would have like played it 450 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 1: much different. I don't think, Yeah, I agree, you can't 451 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: like necessarily just saying all right, well just just flip 452 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: the score at that point because different but exactly because 453 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: you play the clock much different. But here, here's the 454 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: other thing. It was the exact right decision, because the 455 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 1: Ravens ended up being in a perfect spot to go 456 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: win that game. They got the once like, they had 457 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 1: two points they had they had to get basically yards 458 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: they had too. Theoretically, theoretically, by virtue of losing the 459 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 1: two of not getting the two point conversion early on 460 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: with nine minutes left, you would have hoped the Ravens 461 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 1: would have scored faster their second touchdown faster, right, like 462 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: now they knew we had to be in a hurry 463 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: up now, like we gotta take some shots, we gotta 464 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: like and they kind of they burned a fair amount 465 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: of time off the clock even on that second touchdown. Drive. Um, 466 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,719 Speaker 1: you know, now Tyler overshot Marky's brown deep for what 467 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: would have been an earlier touchdown, right, but like they 468 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: you would have liked to have scored that second touchdown 469 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: earlier so that you didn't have to do the on 470 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: side kick, because in all reality, the onside kick does 471 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: not have a high likelihood of the landing. I mean, yes, 472 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: of of course, but that's also challenging in its own right. 473 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: Just be like, yeah, yeah, you know, I gotta score faster. 474 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 1: You gotta get a faster touchdown. I prefer faster operating 475 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,479 Speaker 1: with Tyler Huntley and that offensive line. I mean, all right, 476 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: let's move on this this anyway. The point is like 477 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 1: there shouldn't really be a debate here. It was a 478 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:40,719 Speaker 1: way better call to go for it earlier as the leader. Anyway, 479 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: let's move on talking about some of the offense familiar problems. 480 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: The Ravens like have a major problem. I think they 481 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 1: have an offensive tackle problem. Like it's a problem. I mean, 482 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: if we didn't know that it was earlier, it was 483 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 1: I think very apparent in this game. Um, you know, 484 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,119 Speaker 1: the Ravens have faced some of the top pass rushers 485 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: in the NFL in recent weeks, as we've talked about, 486 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 1: and they have all feasted, I mean feasted Myles Garrett 487 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: with the sacks strip touchdown right last week it was 488 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: three and a half sacks for t J. Watt and 489 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 1: affected the last play of the game, the game winning play. 490 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: Week before week before that, Bears or two weeks before that, Bears, 491 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 1: Robert Quinn had three and a half sacks. I mean, 492 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:33,439 Speaker 1: these guys are going off and it's it's an issue. 493 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 1: I think that's that really like. Now, what I did 494 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,439 Speaker 1: like about what I saw from the offense once Tyler 495 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: took over is like, even though you're struggling at tackle 496 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 1: with protection, they took some shots. Like like Tyler said, 497 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 1: you know, he threw some balls down that sideline for 498 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: Bateman and said, all right, you're one on one, go 499 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: make a play. I'm gonna give you a shot. And like, 500 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,439 Speaker 1: that's what I've been I've been kind of waiting for 501 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: that from the Ravens offense at times the year, even 502 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: with the protection problems and the blitzing and all that stuff. 503 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: Like we got these wide receivers. We had the best 504 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: wide receivers that the Ravens have ever had in franchise history, 505 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,479 Speaker 1: in my opinion, the best trio. And let's give him 506 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: some shots. And so I like that. And that's what 507 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley said after the game about Rashod Bateman. He's like, yeah, man, 508 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him an opportunity and he made he 509 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: made the plays, and I'd like to see the Ravens 510 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: do more that. Yeah, I agree. I mean, I think 511 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: Bateman was obviously real. Bright Spot has first hundred yard game, 512 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 1: seven catches over hundred yards and big catches and big spots. 513 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: So I think that that, to me is a takeaway 514 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: that the Ravens gotta get him more involved. I mean, 515 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: up until the second half of that game, he hadn't 516 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 1: done anything and he didn't have any catches the previous week. 517 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: So I think that he is showing that he deserves 518 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 1: a lot of action and part of the reason. Just 519 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: as a note, there was no update on it. Maybe 520 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 1: we'll have one today from Hardball, But Sammy Watkins was 521 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: basically standing on the sidelines without his helmet late in 522 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: that game, So I don't know if he dealt with 523 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: an injury or what, but um, it seemed like that 524 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: would be the case given the fact that he didn't 525 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: have his helmet. So Bateman made the most of that opportunity, 526 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: and I would like to see him, you know, get 527 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: some serious workload moving forward based on what we saw 528 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 1: in that game. And I agree, I think taking those shots. 529 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: You know, they took one on that last drive, which 530 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:22,199 Speaker 1: I liked to Hollywood, it just was again overshot, um, 531 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: and especially with the way the rest are calling past interferences, 532 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 1: it's like you like, I feel like half the time 533 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 1: if a ball falls incomplete in the secondary and there's 534 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: any contact, you're gonna get a flag. And so take 535 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: your shots and sometimes put the game either in the 536 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: hands of your guy winning the battle or in the 537 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: hands of the reffs, which it seems like all too 538 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: often is resulting in a flag on the defense. Yeah. 539 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 1: And and what I like about Bateman two is I 540 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: think that he to me right now, I think he's 541 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: their best. Um. It's hard to say whether he's their 542 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: best deep threat. I mean, uh, I don't think he's 543 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 1: that much slower than Hollywood Brown is right now, um, 544 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: and contestant catches. I like Bateman. Um. I also think 545 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: he's their best option for making people miss, like on 546 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 1: the short intermediate stuff like we saw that a couple 547 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 1: of times yesterday. And so if you're talking about well 548 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna blitz, they're gonna call it all out blitz. 549 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: Who do we want to get the ball? If we're 550 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: going quick, you know, throw a quick slant, something over 551 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: the middle or stop route and it has to make 552 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: somebody miss and pick up a first down. I like 553 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: Bateman in that scenario. Um. Now, that's what the Ravens 554 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: did on their last I know you didn't see it. 555 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: You know what happened on that planet. On their last drive, 556 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: right on fourth down, they call, you know, the Browns 557 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: call to cover zero. Uh, tried to hit Bateman on 558 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: a quick slant and Denzel Ward just made a good play, 559 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: just came up and attacked the ball. Wasn't the best 560 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: the best throw from Tyler. That kind of led him. 561 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: You know, Bateman had to go kind of high to 562 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: make the catch, and I think that prevented him from 563 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: putting a move on Denzel Ward if he could, if 564 00:27:58,119 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: he had time. But that was really just a good 565 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: play it by Ward. Yum. I like that the Ravens 566 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: had to answer for the blitz get the ball out 567 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: of the hands, you know, I mean it was the 568 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: only he's the only option really given. I mean there's 569 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: guys in his face, so he had to get rid 570 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: of the ball there exactly. If it's a perfect throw 571 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: and he leads him and it's you know, chest high, 572 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: can can he potentially shrug off that tackle and pick 573 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 1: up some some yards maybe? But Ward made a good 574 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: play then a Ward made a really good play on that. 575 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: I really I much preferred the Brown's defense on an 576 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 1: earlier fourth down, on the touchdown drive where they left 577 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 1: Mark and Andrew's uncovered that. I really like that one. 578 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: That was a good one. I really it would have 579 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: been nice that they went back to that option. Can 580 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: we get back that? Can we get back to the um. 581 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you man, Yeah, Just to wrap up 582 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: the Batman conversation, kids got a bright future, bright future. 583 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: That play the third yard down the sideline, the diving 584 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: over the shoulder grab, the going up high a big boy, Uh, 585 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: greedy greedy Williams was a really nice play. Um, so 586 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: I like him. Um. Defensively, let's let's let's flip this 587 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: over to the defense a little bit here. Well, first, 588 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: let's sake a break.

All right, so, defensive 597 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: we we kind of talked about a little bit already 598 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: about the job they did against the Browns rushing attack. 599 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: You know, a lot of talk going into the game 600 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 1: was obviously around how these cornerbacks would hold up without 601 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: Marlon Humphrey. I gotta say I got it right once again. 602 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: I started to doubt myself late in the week and 603 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 1: thinking Tavon Young might be the starter outside based on 604 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: what John Harball was saying. But it was all It 605 00:29:58,080 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: was a spokes scream, man. It was Chris. It was 606 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: Western all the way. Had it measured? Had it measured? 607 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: I thought? I thought Chris Westry played a pretty solid game. Obviously, 608 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: got called for the thirty yard d p I, which 609 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: was belogny a big old Blogney sandwich, because Jarvis Landry 610 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: hugged him. I mean, Western was in great position, had 611 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: his head turned like he has every right to that 612 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: ball as much as Landry does at that time, and 613 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: and Jervis Landry hugged him and dragged him down with him. 614 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: And then they get the dp I call, which was 615 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: their second of that drive led to a field goal 616 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: in what ended up being a twenty four for the 617 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: brown It's pretty big, pretty big call in the long run. 618 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: You know when you when you kind of play it 619 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: all out, So that was disappointing. But overall, I thought 620 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: the cornerbacks held up pretty well. Anthony Averick gets an interception, 621 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: really had a tip pass. They should have backed back interception. 622 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:52,719 Speaker 1: He tipped the ball that should have been picked off 623 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: by Brandon Stevens. Where's brit Brandon Stevens for a converted 624 00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 1: running back? Man, Come on, you gotta make that two 625 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 1: shots at it? Also, Oh my goodness, grations he and 626 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: Chuck get him on the jugs machine. Yeah, that was 627 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: that was tough. I agree, I thought, I thought that 628 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: the secondary held up well, and I think the test 629 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: gets even tougher this week. UM going up against Aaron Rodgers, 630 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: who put up forty points on Sunday Night Football last night. 631 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: So like, the Browns don't have anywhere as dynamic of 632 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: a passing game obviously as the UM as the Packers 633 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: Toonte Adams and Aaron Rodgers the Packers exactly. So it's 634 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: it's a much it's a much taller task uh this week. 635 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: But I thought from the first game out there, I 636 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: thought Westy played well. We see the ability that he 637 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: has and why he made a team. Um, so I 638 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: feel like there's some that's encouraging. Yes, I agree with that. Um. 639 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 1: Jimmy Smith did not playing the game, reportedly missed it 640 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: because the birth of his child didn't make the trip. 641 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: Congratulations to Jimmy. Um will be good to have him 642 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,239 Speaker 1: back out there against the Packers as well. Uh, you know, 643 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: and we didn't get an update on Clais Campbell after 644 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: the game. I would expect that not to be a 645 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 1: long term thing, considering the guy had his helmet on 646 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: not long after the injury. But thighs, you know, if 647 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: it's a thigh hamstring issue, you never know. There's things 648 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: can sometimes linger. Sometimes it's not a huge deal. I mean, 649 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 1: Chris Westy just got through a thigh. Um. You know, 650 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: it's hard to say, you know, like, especially as a 651 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: defensive lineman, you hope that like it's not like a 652 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: corner where you need to be absolutely top speed. But um, 653 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 1: but you still need to explode out of your stance 654 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: and all that stuff. So well, we'll see on Calias. Um. 655 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: I mean, the Ravens are in survival mood injury wise 656 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: right now. It's survival mood and uh, and obviously the 657 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 1: biggest one is the quarterback without you know, that's kind 658 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: of the no dah statement of the day. Um, but 659 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: I the team does have confidence in Snoop for good reason. Um. 660 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:10,479 Speaker 1: And look if if if they go into a game 661 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: against the Packers and they don't have Lamar and they 662 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: don't have Calais, it's like it's almost it's not funny, 663 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: it's almost just it's a comical in the sense that 664 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: it's hard to believe. It's like all of these Pro 665 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: Bowl players, the corners, Lamar, h should I go down 666 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: the list? I mean, here we go, here we go, 667 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: this is, this is this could have been your Pro 668 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: Bowl roster right here ready, Lamar Jackson, J K. Dobbins, 669 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: Gus Edwards, Ronnie Stanley, Nick Boyle, pat Rickard, Marlon Humphrey, 670 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: Marcus Peters, Deshaan Elliott, Claias Campbell, Derek Wolfe, LJ. For 671 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: all Ravens who are injured in yesterday's game or before 672 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: obs so crazy, it's so you you hope that for 673 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 1: Lamar Clais it's not long term at all. Very short term, 674 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 1: very very short term. Um, but we'll see, we'll see 675 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 1: what hardball says, and if the Ravens have to go 676 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,359 Speaker 1: with Snoop. I think that they have confidence in him 677 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: and and he's showing that he can he can win 678 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,399 Speaker 1: a game. He can win a game. Um, now can 679 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: you win? Want to get the Packers against maybe the 680 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: best team in football? That's a tall order. Um, but 681 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of shocking games around the NFL 682 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 1: this year. See you never know, Yeah, it would be class. 683 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,399 Speaker 1: I do think that the Ravens, like they aren't gonna 684 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: go into that game scared, regardless of who's a quarterback 685 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: and who's available. Like they're going to go into that 686 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 1: game with the attitude that we should win it and 687 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 1: that they're coming into our house. Um. And that's just 688 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 1: that that goes back to what we were just talking 689 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: about at the very top of this thing. YEP, I 690 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: completely agree. Anyway, thanks for listening.
