0:00:03.000 --> 0:00:05.600
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to the Ravens Press Pass podcast. It is Friday,

0:00:05.840 --> 0:00:08.680
<v Speaker 1>October eleventh. The Ravens are gearing up for Sunday's game

0:00:08.760 --> 0:00:11.640
<v Speaker 1>at M and T Banks Stadium against the Washington Commanders,

0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:14.080
<v Speaker 1>and today we heard from head coach John Harbaugh.

0:00:18.120 --> 0:00:20.520
<v Speaker 2>All right, great to see everybody here. We sure appreciate

0:00:20.560 --> 0:00:24.079
<v Speaker 2>you being here. Beautiful day for practice, beautiful day for everything.

0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:28.640
<v Speaker 2>Just to shout out to our friend Rachel Yaffi and

0:00:28.760 --> 0:00:31.360
<v Speaker 2>she goes through some some hell things that she's dealing with,

0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:33.680
<v Speaker 2>and our prayers are with her that God would heal

0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:37.440
<v Speaker 2>her completely. We pray that what question do you have?

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:39.440
<v Speaker 1>All eyes are.

0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:41.720
<v Speaker 2>One this game, but you hope We were talking a

0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:44.360
<v Speaker 2>little bit about Tampa. Do you think about it or

0:00:44.400 --> 0:00:46.959
<v Speaker 2>try to gage anything about you know, the upcoming game

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:48.720
<v Speaker 2>of whether it's going to change anything, or have you

0:00:48.760 --> 0:00:50.720
<v Speaker 2>heard anything about that. I haven't heard anything. I'm trying

0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 2>to gauge Allison's apartment complex right now because we don't

0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:55.760
<v Speaker 2>really have word. We know the power is still out.

0:00:56.040 --> 0:00:58.040
<v Speaker 2>We don't know if they're underwater or whatever, if they

0:00:58.080 --> 0:00:59.560
<v Speaker 2>give the car. She got a car down there, so

0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:02.880
<v Speaker 2>we're hoping not underwater, but so we got two things

0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:04.720
<v Speaker 2>going on there. We don't know much about either at

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:07.680
<v Speaker 2>this point. You've been really good inside the red zone.

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:10.840
<v Speaker 2>Obviously got Derek henry Wood anything dress, don't skim back

0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:13.280
<v Speaker 2>or anything to be so successful that Yeah, probably all

0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:15.400
<v Speaker 2>those things tought to me. You know, being good in

0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:17.320
<v Speaker 2>the red zone usually does start with running the ball.

0:01:18.200 --> 0:01:19.840
<v Speaker 2>It does go next probably you know you got to

0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 2>block people and protect, but goes next to scheme for sure,

0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:24.240
<v Speaker 2>because you know, it's kind of a different kind of

0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:26.240
<v Speaker 2>a scheme game that get downer because things happen so

0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:29.640
<v Speaker 2>much faster. And thirdly, it ends up being about extended plays,

0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:31.800
<v Speaker 2>which we've been good at as well. So all three

0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:33.800
<v Speaker 2>of those areas our offense is doing a real nice job.

0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:35.399
<v Speaker 2>You got to try to keep it going.

0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:37.319
<v Speaker 1>Going on with that.

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:40.280
<v Speaker 2>Yesterday you asked me munking about the red zone. We

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:44.160
<v Speaker 2>talked about how the packful. The discussion ars after the

0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:45.880
<v Speaker 2>one in the game where you said you guys are

0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 2>just trying to win a game when to make field

0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:50.440
<v Speaker 2>goals off. We just need to talk a bit about

0:01:50.680 --> 0:01:53.200
<v Speaker 2>that conversation if you remember that from last year and

0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:55.920
<v Speaker 2>won the game, and just what kind of was the

0:01:55.920 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 2>proposit that discussion. Yeah, it seems like that's the century ago.

0:01:59.880 --> 0:02:04.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't remember, don't remember the conversation that well, probably

0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:06.800
<v Speaker 2>had one, you know, and we didn't. We'll kick the

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:08.120
<v Speaker 2>field goals if we have to, but we sure we

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.919
<v Speaker 2>want to score the touchdowns. I do remember. Also, if

0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:12.600
<v Speaker 2>if you remember, we were coming into that game, we

0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:14.480
<v Speaker 2>were coming off the Pittsburgh game where we had the

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:17.600
<v Speaker 2>disappointing loss to Pittsburgh, and we we had something. We

0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:19.000
<v Speaker 2>had a we had a team meeting in the in

0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.960
<v Speaker 2>the chapel there at the at the resort we were at.

0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:25.000
<v Speaker 2>It was an old basically an old monastery seminary kind

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:27.120
<v Speaker 2>of the type of thing, and they had a beautiful

0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:29.800
<v Speaker 2>chapel and we called it the U the Chapel of

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Truth because we had to put some truth out there

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:33.280
<v Speaker 2>about how we were playing and what we needed to

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:35.240
<v Speaker 2>do to go ahead and get right, you know. So

0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:40.760
<v Speaker 2>I remember that meeting. So there's a lot of meetings. Yeah,

0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:44.560
<v Speaker 2>John O fill years out of elevations. Do you anticipate

0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:47.000
<v Speaker 2>our lead to see is this his time? Because I

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.639
<v Speaker 2>know you need a number three back right. Definitely a possibility.

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:54.560
<v Speaker 2>I practiced full. So we'll see where we see where we.

0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Go with that.

0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:57.720
<v Speaker 2>We have a plan and it'll be obviously announced, you

0:02:57.720 --> 0:03:00.560
<v Speaker 2>know when we get to Saturday with the reporting of

0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 2>the elevations and all that. Hey, coach, I know that

0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:08.320
<v Speaker 2>Pittsburgh is probably your main rival, But because Washington is

0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:10.880
<v Speaker 2>better now than they've been in the past, and because

0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:13.960
<v Speaker 2>of proximity, could this be sort of a budding rival

0:03:13.960 --> 0:03:15.800
<v Speaker 2>where you may be more so between the fans and

0:03:15.840 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 2>the teams because you guys don't play each other then, Mark, Yeah,

0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:20.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I don't know. It's really fun. I mean

0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:23.400
<v Speaker 2>I feel I'm sure that everybody's excited in the region,

0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:27.400
<v Speaker 2>you know, the d mvuh. It's it's cool. It's fun.

0:03:27.400 --> 0:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's what it's about sports is to have fun,

0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:32.200
<v Speaker 2>you know. For the fans, I mean, we we take

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:34.280
<v Speaker 2>it as life and death and and to us on

0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:35.960
<v Speaker 2>a given day it kind of feels like it is.

0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.680
<v Speaker 2>But in the end, it's it's a it's a great distraction.

0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:40.520
<v Speaker 2>It's a great thing to have fun with. I hope

0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:42.920
<v Speaker 2>people have a great time around the Ravens, you know,

0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:45.600
<v Speaker 2>and the Commanders and everybody else in the league. I

0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:47.920
<v Speaker 2>hope they enjoy it. I hope it's something that gets them,

0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:50.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, gets their mind in a different place sometimes

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:53.960
<v Speaker 2>and they can enjoy it. So to whatever extent that is,

0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:56.360
<v Speaker 2>that's great for us. It's a rivalry because it's our

0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:59.160
<v Speaker 2>next game. We do respect this team. They're very good,

0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:03.280
<v Speaker 2>we're playing it and they're tough, physical outfit, you know,

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:05.920
<v Speaker 2>so we're looking forward to the challenge of that and

0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:07.000
