It didn't really have me nervous But the Giants game it did it had me nervous and no Daniel Jones was coming back in the lineup But it did have me nervous because with Daniel Jones He normally And I didn't really notice this until like about the second or third quarter yesterday but Daniel Jones normally he presents the threat of being a dual threat quarterback and I don't think we saw him run out one time yesterday and if he did I certainly don't remember But I don't think we saw him run not once and that's been something about Daniel Jones game That just adds another element to it, but we didn't see that element yesterday And I'm certainly not complaining that we didn't see it. I didn't mind not seeing it But he just he didn't take off and I know he was dealing what he was coming back from dealing with ain't with dealing with injuries On both legs like he had a hamstring injury on one and an ankle injury on the other And a lot of Giants fans when I saw that Daniel Jones was gonna be playing I saw a lot of Giants fans saying no, it's just too early. He's probably not even gonna be a hundred percent And they just they weren't feeling it. They would have rather went with Cole McCoy, but they went with Daniel Jones and He he struggled now Ravens defense was obviously a big part of that But he struggled now. There was a lot of stuff that wasn't even his fault he threw He threw I think two almost interceptions, but Almost doesn't counsel he wasn't throwing the ball bad. He did have some drops by his receivers He can't do anything about that But the Ravens were just pretty much all over everything any deep passes. Nope. No deep passes They did give up a few shorts short passes and whatnot But they were pretty much all over everything and all over him too. They sacked them six times So Ravens defense the pass rush not only stepped up, but they stepped up in finishing as well Justin Madi BK got the first sack of his career. We knew it was coming eventually We knew because he's been getting pressure and he is somebody when we watch film on him before the season started I saw that he he could bring pressure from both the interior and the exterior So that's what made him such a versatile piece With this Ravens defense and again something else that I said before too with Justin Madi BK Or Madi BK whatever it is. I just y'all already know but with number 92 with Justin um You knew that he was something special When the Ravens never put him on injured reserve at the beginning of the season because they could have and I expected them to When they said he was injured even he was gonna miss a couple of games You know when hardball says, oh you're gonna miss a couple of games Usually that means the injured reserve is coming But they never put him on injured reserve Even this year when injured reserve the minimum that you got to miss is three games They never not once placed him on injured reserve. So that's when I knew this dude was gonna be special And I knew the Ravens really valued him and we've been seeing why especially recently Um, so he got a sack judon. He got a sack um Chris board. I think he had two sacks um And the other ones I honestly forgot where the other ones came from but the Ravens they got six sacks Six of them. So that speaks well to the past question It was against a a giant's offensive line, but again Same thing I say If the Ravens didn't take care of business with the past rush yesterday, then we will be having a whole another conversation Even if it wasn't against the best offensive line in the world We will still be having a completely different conversation and I'm glad we don't have to have that conversation So that's a beautiful thing. Um secondary, uh, they They were up and down obviously they didn't give up many points The defense has a hole didn't give up many points But still as Ravens fans, we can still see issues and we certainly miss marcus peters. We certainly miss jimmy smith We we miss those guys big time and we have missed those guys big time We we of course know collage camp, but he looks healthy now He was dealing with a calf injury Uh and marcus peters as we know, he's dealing with a calf injury and those things can obviously linger So we maybe that they need to give marcus peters some deer antler spray or something Because we we miss him as much as we had complained about different things that he did with his playing What not when we see the drop-off in the level of play and there's no offense to the guys that are behind marcus peters and behind jimmy smith and behind malin Humphrey, but All two when two of your top three corners are out It does make a big difference now anthony avid he held his own yesterday He held his own yesterday and I was proud of anthony avid. I was like, okay, and I see you good stuff good stuff um And he there was a couple times where uh, he was like a little bit out of position But he was in enough position to make the play. So I guess he wasn't too out of position But maybe if the ball had been placed a little bit better may have been a completion But hey, he made the play. That's all that matters. That's all that matters. So good job ant our marlin humphrey in the game yesterday, um, he He did his thing. Uh, he had some solid tackling That was probably um his best feat feature yesterday solid tackling And also he played the deep ball pretty well, too Now he did have a really bad passing interference called on him where it was not passing interference at all, but you know You know, you know how it goes So it is what it is. Um, safety's the shone elliot chuck clock chuck clock, uh He had a he had an okay game. He did give up a big catch to um to evan ingram And I mean they they did have a matchup with evan ingram. And that's a tough task for anybody Because evan ingram is a tight end, but he's kind of like a receiver But he's like a big big huge receiver. He's a big fast tight end. It's just the the mismatch potential is crazy Um, but chuck clock he did he did all right He did all right. Um But next year we're definitely gonna need some uh improvements in the the quality of the safety play, but we ain't talking about next year yet Uh, but the defense again as a whole the defense they did their thing. There was some bending a little bit of bending But they they didn't break too often. So that was good. I was uh, proud of the defense overall There were some times when it was like, uh, it got a little too close for comfort because that um The game it shouldn't have been as close as it was But hey, that's part of football Different plays can change the outcomes and change the scores And and a couple of those scores or potential scores came on special teams So let's just go ahead and segue the special teams. Uh, because justin tucker just to First let's talk about kick return kick return. Uh, devon duvenay. He got the first kick return of the game And he didn't really look he didn't really look that good that and I had said it during the stream I was like, man, that's the uh, that's the worst kick return I've seen devon duvenay have all season long because he just looked unsure of himself He looked like he was doing too much. It just it wasn't devon duvenay It wasn't a duvenay that we know on kick return, but There was a reason for that It was because he was saving his best stuff for punt return and I was like, oh, okay When you saw him on punt return, then it was like, ah, that makes sense because me I was a little bit worried when they said james prochet was going to be a healthy scratch. I was like, whoa They giving james prochet a mark angrily treatment and he ain't even a veteran But um, I was like, uh, well, who's going to be back there? And I was thinking, okay, willy sneak they're gonna put willy sneak back there Maybe duvenay, but I was like, no, they're gonna put willy sneak back there Nope, they put duvenay back there and duvenay Pro shape better watch out Pro shape better watch out Because duvenay looked good at he looked good at punt return. He looked really good at punt return. He looked very comfortable at punt return So he and and he gave us what pro shape gives us But and I don't know it's only one game, but he gave us what pro shape gives us sure solid hands No bobble in the ball or anything like that But he gave us what pro shape gives us but a lot more because duvenay has explosiveness Pro shape doesn't give us that explosiveness. He doesn't give us that speed on punt return duvenay gave us that and he gave us a big Play on punt return. So It's gonna be very interesting. Um, even just next week Hopefully, uh, we'll get to see how they do it in the playoffs too because that would mean they could took care of business next week But it's gonna be very interesting next week to see How they handle punt return who they give the punt return role to Because I would not be surprised if devon duvenay does get it Now one thing about this game, uh, it continued to show that the raven street devon duvenay like a gimmick player And I like well like my guy, uh db said or dg. He said it. He's like a gadget guy. That's all they do with them gadget plays. That's it and That's one thing that's been a frustration with this offense With this coaching is that they don't always put these guys in the best, uh positions to succeed With devon duvenay, you okay, you got him as a return man. Cool That's fine. But on offense, all they do is those little in the round jet sweeps and da da da da. And that's it That's it Now I know you you're trying to use him as a weapon, which is fine But it's okay to get him involved in the passing game a little bit It's okay. And I know you can't everybody can't eat Everybody can't eat every sunday. I get that but It's just one of those things just to monitor moving forward because duvenay got he got the speed He got the size this dude is a running back playing receiver So I just I feel like they could do a better job of getting him involved in the passing game um in a serious manner Because again, I and I it's obviously came a long way from that. But I remember Lamar's rookie season They're beginning of it when flacco was still starting the mark gadget gadget gadget guy. That's it trick plays But anyway, um, so we're just keeping an eye on that in the future. Um, also special teams Justin Tucker This is why penalties can they can change everything Justin Tucker getting ready to kick a 51-yard field goal and they lining up And this uh, he kicks it makes it 51-yard field goal. No problem. Thank great job. Justin Tucker. That's what we're used to We know how you do great job, but It's a delay a game It's a delay a game. So that negated that 51-yard field goal. So then it made it a 56-yard field goal John hardball said no Tucker. You're not kicking that Come on. So I'm cook you're up And that was um, I wasn't surprised that they did that but when I really really thought about I'm like, oh You took Justin Tucker off the field. You know Justin Tucker the way he wanted to go for you know, he did But I was like, okay. I didn't really have a big problem with it. But it is Justin Tucker though. It's Justin Tucker It's Justin Tucker and that's points Um, but I think John hardball is more playing the field position game So I didn't have I didn't have a big problem with it. Um, I could understand either way Um, why he would have taken him off and kicked the punt or why he would have left him on and did the uh, field goal attempt Uh, so I didn't have a big problem with that Um, but then but again the penalty the penalty took away those three points off the board and it took away everything So and I had originally because the the original down in distance was uh, like third and 10 and third and 11 Lamar got a seven yard run and he made it fourth in three So I thought the Ravens were gonna go for it I really did but they didn't go for it and then they brought out Justin Tucker and then that whole sequence happened So first, um, they didn't go for it on fourth down. So that that took away a possible six points But that's fine. Take your points. Uh, but then the penalty took away the three points So they end up getting nothing so penalties man penalties penalties penalties. Um, so then, uh Another special teams play it happened. Oh, yeah, another one of those sacks came from jihad ward Um, but it was the the the three plays in the row where the ravens got three sacks in a row I think it was jude on jihad and I forgot the last one But ravens got three sacks in a row first second and third down. I was like, okay, let's go But then it was time to punt the ball Giants punted the ball justice hill Fast guy and he's been doing really good on special teams But justice hill went for the block Missed but since the punters leg was up in the air and justice hill ran into him the way the punter failed That's a penalty every time it was a good call It was a good call and um, that wasn't only running into the kicker, but it was roughing the kicker So it was a 15-yard penalty and an automatic first down that gave the giants life and the giants ended up getting a touchdown They ended up getting a touchdown So again a penalty, um, it took away a possession for the ravens and it gave the giant seven So the penalties They ravens didn't have a crazy amount of penalties, but they had some significant penalties in this game So they and again, they they didn't get the uh the the false start that they get every week But they did get the illegal formation You got the illegal formation and instead of getting the false starts They were like, you know what we'll make up with that with two delay of game penalties. So there you go um So that that's definitely got to improve Uh, I did see and just to segue now to the offense I still saw a lot of uh, where the that play clock was just getting down It would just get down to two seconds And I feel like when when it gets down there when it gets down like two seconds left on the play clock I feel like um, because I saw a couple times with the maa He'll be trying to get the defense to jump off sides, but that's not gonna work You can't do that when you only got like two seconds left on the play clock You can't that's not gonna work against the defense Because you're you're taking forever to get that to execute the play Um, so that's just something that I Ravens offense could even though Ravens offense has been doing really good That's just something that they could improve on Um, but with Lamar Jackson and this Ravens offense Again, uh, it was it was pretty good Especially first half first half they were just they were continuing what they had been doing for the past couple of weeks They were they were moving that ball consistently The play calling in this game. It was pretty good. I know a lot of people there was a a third and two Where the Ravens, um, they did an rpo with Lamar Jackson And it was a keeper. Uh, I know a lot of people had a problem with that play. I I didn't um Even though it was kind of obvious. Well, at least to me I'm not sure about to to the giants, but it must have been because they stopped it really good But I just I didn't have a problem with that play call Um, y'all know me. I will let you know whether the play works or not Um, I will let you know if I got a problem with that play call, but that that one I didn't I didn't have a problem with it. Uh, because normally that's something that Lamar would get Even if the defense knows it's coming. Um, that's something that he would normally get but I I thought the play calling yesterday, uh, offense wise. I thought it was fine Uh, they did a good mix, especially at the beginning of the game a good mix of run and pass Of course, jk dobbins yesterday. Uh, he had a good game He did get a little banged up, but he's fine Gus Edwards He continued to do his thing and Gus Edwards just continues to evolve as a running back. I absolutely love him They are really making him a true number one back and I love that they're making him an all-around guy And that's shooting up his value over and over and over again. Um, so They they need to take care of Gus Edwards, man. I know you can't keep everybody You need to take care of Gus Edwards though. You do you need to that that tender whatever tender you place on them It'll be worth it. It'll be worth it Um, but anyway with Gus Edwards one thing about him There are a couple of things. I love his change of direction now Gus Edwards, we know him as a bruiser, but Gus Edwards got some finesse to his game too Um, he he's getting a lot better at changing directions. Um, he has really good vision as well And he's been getting involved in a passing game Yesterday, uh, probably one of the words that I would use to describe, uh, the game um One of the best words I will use to describe especially from the offense would be effort effort We saw a uh, just a great display of effort yesterday And that's something that um, threw out some different times in this season had been lacking Uh, we saw that effort from Gus Edwards when Lamar, he had a defender all over him like literally Grabbing him and pulling him down and Lamar threw it threw it to Gus Edwards. Gus Edwards went up and got it Gus Edwards went up and got it Caught the ball stayed in bounds and then got a big chunk of yards after that Now I hadn't I had initially thought yeah, it was a completion, but I thought he stepped out of bounds Mm-hmm. He sure didn't that was a great play. So I love that they've been getting him involved in the passing game more. Um Jk Dobbins, of course I mean it's become the the normal now He broke uh Jamal Lewis record uh for most touchdowns by Ravens running back in his rookie season It's a lot of ours, but shout out to jk Dobbins. Um, he has been He's been he's been everything that the the ravens fans and ravens envisioned him on being um this year He has definitely once the ravens stopped the whole feeding everybody the the running back by committee once they stopped all of that Yeah, they let these boys shine and they went with the hot hands and that has improved the offense so much It's made such a big difference um With the offensive line the offensive line run run blocking they did pretty good yesterday pass blocking They could have done better could have been a little worse. Lamar Lamar. There was some players Lamar was back there for a little minute Lamar was back there for a little minute and um, again, he was just going through his progressions Just like a lot of people say he doesn't do but anyway, uh, Lamar was back there going through his progressions He will hold the ball. He'd be looking looking looking looking looking looking And he will make good decisions He made very good decisions all all game yesterday. There were not any almost interceptions Um, there were not any should have been interceptions Lamar was on point with that football man He was on point with that football. Um, we talked about effort earlier Uh, hollywood. He had like four catches for like 25 26. Y'all something like that Um, he did of course have the touchdown reception But that was even my favorite catch from hollywood My favorite catch from hollywood was on his very first catch think was on the very first drive Where lamar he threw it and it was above hollywood It was above him, but so there was somebody I forgot who it was they mentioned They were like with hollywood. He catches with his body They said he catches with his body and if he has to extend his arms Those are the the passes that he drops and I was like, okay, I watch for that in the future But in yesterday's game a pass where lamar threw it over hollywood So he had to extend for it because it didn't go right to his chest hollywood showed effort and he reached up and snatched it out the air and got it for lamar I was so happy with hollywood on that play It really was and then there was another play another catch by hollywood Where he was running this route the play was breaking down lamar's getting some pressure and hollywood came back to the ball He came back to it. Lamar hit him and it was just it was a beautiful thing And then he even he even dove into contact. He didn't even run out of bounds. I said, okay See in there Boy, can he had one catch yesterday sneed had a really good catch and again effort Effort sneed went up and got it and he held it and he took a nasty hit nasty fall And we didn't see him for the rest of the game But that effort That effort for him being willing to put himself out there for his quarterback Yeah effort There's brian. There's brian had a nice touchdown reception yesterday It was was only catching the game, but it made a difference because it was a score Um, and he was wide open wide open lamar hit him There's went jumped up and got it boom touchdown throw up the x So that was a beautiful thing. Um, it's nice been nice seeing there's brian continue to get involved in this passing game um, and then of course Of course mark andrews He did have the one drop right before halftime. Um in the end zone It would have been a touchdown. It was a perfect pass from lamar jackson I was starting to get a little upset at them commentators when they were like, oh, that was almost an interception I was like, uh, no, it wasn't No, it wasn't But they did uh, correct themselves. Um, but mark andrews dropped that one But mark andrews was having a day yesterday The catches that he was making see that that's the mark andrews that we love now mark andrews He definitely um, he is one of the top titans one of the top five six titans in the league Top two though not yet. He he the drop issues got to go first Because mark andrews that is one thing but he can make some crazy catches But mark andrews we have in the case of the drops a lot Um, but he's still a really nice tight end man really nice tight end Obviously lamar's probably favorite target. Um, and he can make some plays man Mark andrews can make some plays and mark andrews is somebody that usually always shows effort You you never got a question mark andrews effort. Um, when he's out there So shout out to him because boy, he was all over yesterday All over yesterday And I loved it. I said that's that's a man right there He that was a man Mark and some people were saying that mark andrews shade because I was looking inside his head when I was like That's not mark andrews. He looks different But it said he shade and maybe you need he needed to start shaving every week He need to keep it clean keep his face clean every week Because he was out there just killing it man. So shout out to mark andrews Um, but yeah overall ravens. This is a good game and it was a game that they needed It was a game that they needed they needed really every game. Um, I one once they got to that browns game Monday night football a couple weeks ago. That was a huge game huge game And every game after that has been a huge game too Because they've needed these games in order to get into the playoffs and on top of that They would need help as well. So that made these games big games because had they lost Then that would be that So next week or this week next week was technically sunday is the start of a new week You know how weeks are just crazy. But anyway ravens play the um The bingles next week. I know in my video yesterday. I had accidentally said browns. That's why we had to do that voice over For bingles, but ravens play the bingles next week um, and the bingles team that just beat the texas and they scored like I think 41 points something like that but Ravens got to take care of business Because that's that's the last obstacle That's the last hurdle that they have to get to the playoffs And it's a beautiful thing that the week that we can say that that ravens now control their own fate No matter what happens on the outside ravens don't need to scoreboard watch They don't need to focus on anybody else's games No matter what happens in anybody else's games. It doesn't matter. It does not well It affects the ravens. They could move them seating wise, but They will still be as long as they win they're in that's it that's it And it's crazy because again a couple weeks ago Um, it just we all we all had the conversation We've all talked amongst each other about it man. This team could go 11 and five and possibly miss the playoffs But now, um, if this team does go 11 and five We don't got to have that conversation So teamkeeper clean. I appreciate y'all again. Thank you again for the little things I love y'all And just like the ravens are or ravens are no more when it comes to the playoff scenario and the playoff race We out Ravens are in that
