 You see, it didn't take a trade for the Baltimore Ravens to get a pro bowl player because they already had one waiting in the wings. Today in practice, Marcus Williams, who has been missing for the past couple of weeks, he officially returned again, because this all happened before, but he had missed some time before when his pec injury came back a little bit later, then missed some time with his hamstring injury, but it was always a bittersweet thing because when we saw him out there, he was out there playing with basically one arm. So now, hopefully that pec injury will be a lot better than it was before, but also that hamstring injury will be good to, I mean, it has to be good to go for him to be practicing, especially with how the Baltimore Ravens get down. Now, this is great news. This is amazing news. Glad that Marcus Williams is back. It's a beautiful thing. Almost said Marcus Peters is probably thinking about that pick 60 other night, but anyway, poor guy, because he's in such a bad situation with that terrible organization the Raiders are. But anyway, Marcus Williams, this is tricky, because I mean, you know he was watching, and you know he was watching the league leader in Interceptions, Mr. Geno Stone, and they said through eight games, the last person who had five Interceptions through the first eight games of the season was Ed Reed, Geno Stone. Hey! That boy is ballin', man. Shout out to Geno Stone, but you know Marcus Williams been watching every single game. You know Marcus Williams been watching every single snap. You know Marcus Williams been thinking, like, ooh. So now, and I wanna hear from y'all for sure on this, like what do you think the Baltimore Ravens should do with their lineup? Do you leave Geno Stone where he's been at and you find a spot for Marcus? Because you know that they love to have them three safeties on the field. Geno Stone, Marcus Williams, and Kyle Hamilton. And Kyle Hamilton does not normally typically play the regular safety role. He just, they use him everywhere. So what do you do? Do you give Marcus Williams his starting spot back? Do you say, all right, Marcus Williams, you're back in the starting lineup. Do you let the money make the decision for you? Because if you follow the money, then yeah, Marcus Williams has just started from jump. Or do you go with something, we're trying to fix something that's not broken? Because Geno Stone, he certainly is not broken. This defense overall, I mean, last week, it was broken, but Geno Stone himself, him being the starting safety. Hey, what do you do? What do you do? Well, I really look forward to hearing and seeing y'all in the comment section and see what y'all are talking about. But there's a very, very tricky situation for those Baltimore Ravens. But we are glad that they're in this tricky situation. I like when stuff is made difficult like this because that means you have a lot of quality depth. So this is a great problem to have. Now, somebody else that they got back who is also a safety, I mean, he was a corner last year. Now this year's a safety, who knows what he's gonna be next year. But anyway, Daryl Worley. Daryl Worley, he returned to practice. He got activated off of Endure Reserve. So he starts his three week window, his 21 day window where he can practice and within those 21 days, he has to be added to the active roster again. So again, hey, Ravens, they, why they didn't make a move at the trade deadline. No, a lot of us were disappointed, but they getting a lot of guys back every week. Somebody returning. Like a couple of last week where there was a doubt fair way, it was Tyler Wallace off of Endure Reserve. Now this week, Marcus Williams and now Daryl Worley off of Endure Reserve. So hey, them Ravengers. Dun, dun, dun, dun. Anyway, now with the good news, also came a little bit of the bad. Also people who did not practice, Gus Edwards. Even though Gus Edwards, the FedEx round player the week. So shout out to him. He say, he gonna play. Gus Edwards, he gonna play. But anyway, he didn't practice today. Odell Beckham, Jr. So there's that. And who knows what Odell Beckham, Jr. Could this be a vet rest day? Maybe. Is he still hurt? I don't believe that he flew back with the team playing because remember when Marlon Humphrey was doing his IG live after the game, we're looking for Odell. We didn't see no Odell there. But anyway, Ronnie Stanley, hopefully a rest day, maybe. Hopefully, let's see. Morgan Moses, a doubt fair way, rock your scene. So that's a long list of people who did not practice. That's a whole lot of people. So hopefully it is just a, hopefully it's just some rest days for some of those guys. Now, Jeff Zribick did highlight that both Odell Beckham, Jr., Morgan Moses and a doubt fair way, they all left Sunday's game at different points with injuries. And again, like I said, with Odell Beckham, Jr., that has been his thing. Every time he plays, he ends up leaving with an injury. Every game that he plays, he has left. And a lot of them he came back in, but at some point in time, he's left with injury. So he just been hurting, man. He has really been hurting. But hopefully he'll be good for the long haul, man. We really hope it'll be good for the long haul. But yeah, anyway, Jeff Zribick also talked about how with John Hobo, as far as the trade, they aligned. Nothing came to fruition, but Hobo highlighted how they not desperate right now. They weren't desperate for anything. And I know a lot of Ravens fans will not like hearing that. And I think that even if you're not desperate, hey, take advantage of your current situation. Make yours great situation even greater. Make it even better, make it even stronger. But the fact that they were not and are not desperate, then a good spot. Now he is saying that after the fact. Now, if they would have made a trade, I wouldn't have considered them being desperate at all. But they were in a spot to where if nothing happened, then all right, cool. But at the same time with Hobo saying that, I don't think he would come out and say, oh man, this team, they did us dirty. They did us nasty. We had this in place. We were already set. And oh, they okie-dokies. I don't think he's gonna say nothing like that. So of course he's gonna be all like, happy go lucky about it and whatnot. But behind closed doors, it's probably a whole another conversation. That's Hobo's team keeping clean version of what he probably really wanted to say. He also talked about how with the injuries that, he said there's nothing to report that's concerning about any players that missed practice today. So take your word for it Hobo's because remember last week when Roquan Smith, when he missed Wednesday practice, the way that Hobo said it though, it's all about, it's not even what you say, it's how you say it. But when Roquan Smith missed last week's Wednesday practice, he was like, oh, you'll see when the injury report comes out there. Like he just kind of like alluded to that and didn't really like, he's like, let us know. Hello, that's Roquan Smith, man. That's missed a hundred million dollar. So I think you, I feel like we deserve to know. Not that we as fans are entitled to anything like that. Cause I know we sitting all the way at the end of the bar. Don't think we forgot about that, Mr. Jonathan Hobo. But anyway, the fact that he said that though, now he's not serious to report that, okay, cool. So if he's saying that down, I'm going to expect every last one of those guys who missed today's practice to be there tomorrow. Every last one, if it ain't serious, every single person, they better be out there and practice tomorrow, Jonathan. Or else, you know what I'ma do? Probably nothing, but yeah, but you know, I just, I just had to say that. But anyway, something about Roquan Smith that I appreciated about his game, because you know, Roquan Smith, Roquan Smith is like the nicest, meanest guy in the world. Because the way he talks, his mannerisms and what super, super nice, he tells, super respectful. But when he's on the field, man, he just, he turns into a different animal, that man. Roquan Smith is nice, man. He is nice. I remember when they first made the trade. I'm like, all right, Roquan Smith, the owner is one of the best linebackers in the league. But then when you get to see it every week, it's like, whoa, like, hold up. Now, he is some serious, but he said that he actually connected with Bobby Wagner before he even got to the league to get like tips and tricks from him. And of course, we got the Seahawks coming up. So shout out to Bobby Wagner. Now with Lamar Jackson, it's funny because Lamar Jackson, a reporter asked him about his record against the NFC. And Lamar Jackson was like, no, no, no, no, no, I don't want to hear it. I don't want to speak about it. I don't want to answer. None of that. He tried to shut all of that down. He said, we're just trying to win every game. We don't care if it's AFC, NFC. We just out there to play, trying to get the wins. That's it. That's it. You don't want to get caught up in all that stuff for all this record and that, no, no, no, no. He wants to win. And Roquan Smith said it, too. Said the only stat that he cared about is winning and losing. Now he did acknowledge that last week, they sucked. Like, they didn't suck, but the defense was, they were slacking and they were slipping for sure. But hopefully this week, ooh, this is such a tough game against the Seahaw. Ooh, it's gonna be tough. Them corners, ooh, them corners better be ready because you got DK Metcalfe. You got Tyler Lockett. You got Jackson Smith and the Jigba. Well, and especially him, because he got all the confidence in the world right now after that catch and that game went in touchdown the other day. And you know what I was thinking? Like, what makes it even better for him? I mean, either way, it would have been great because this game went in touchdown. I remember when it flashed, like when I got the notification, we saw it on like Twitter and stuff. Oh, Jackson Smith and Jigba called a game in touchdown. I was thinking, okay, Geno Smith, he threw it to the end zone or whatnot, Jackson Smith and Jigba, he called it. But then they showed the replay, they showed the highlight, and it was like a screen pass. It was a pass to the flag, he threw it to them and he just, he got the yak, he got like 10 yards of yak and got in the end zone. So I'm like, okay, both are impressive. Cause again, especially that's clutch mode. But yeah, we don't want to see none of that on Sunday. So no, thank you. Now, back to Marcus Williams. Mr. Tricky. Marcus Williams, they asked if he expects to play this Sunday and Marcus Williams said, we'll see what happens, we'll see what happens. But he did say that he's feeling good and he's not frustrated by injuries and that he's faced adversity his whole life. Now, in my opinion, I mean, I don't even think this is just my opinion, but I think the injuries, it's a little more adversity than just injuries with Marcus Williams right now. Cause I really do believe like, this is an extremely tricky situation with Geno Stone. Because again, you, do you like, you can't just take the league leader and interceptions off the field because your start is back because Geno Stone has shown he's a starter too. You can't just take him off the field. And I feel like you can't reduce his snaps. You just can't do that. You do not want to mess up his momentum. You do not want to fix what's not broken. So, hey, this is where I'm not envious of the Ravens coaching staff at all because it's their job to figure out how to make this thing work. Now, again, like I said earlier in this video, it is a great problem to have, but it is a problem. Not a bad problem. I mean, is there ever a good problem? But it is, it's not a bad problem, but it's a problem. It's a tricky situation. And they really got to figure this thing out. But I just, I feel like you, you cannot take Geno Stone off the field. You cannot reduce his snaps. Now Marcus Williams is a baller too now. He is a baller too. But right now, right here, right now, you have to stick with the hot hand in my opinion. You have to leave Geno Stone out there. You cannot take him off. I think that Marcus Williams snaps should be reduced. His role should be changed. His role should be altered, but you cannot mess with Geno Stone right now because he's hot. He's hot. It just, in my opinion, it would not make sense if you took him off to put Marcus Williams. And I know Marcus Williams is the starter. I know Marcus Williams is making all the money in the world and safety right now for the Baltimore Ravens. But Ravens, you cannot mess this up.
