Like I said the questions you know fire as usual We got a lot to cover. Let's do it first question came from my guy calm city Well, I guess more of a rant just getting it off his chest He said the two things the taunting call it reminds me of the law because the person thinks it's a stupid law Doesn't make it not a law if they called it all year and stop then they cost every team prior So you continue to call it until it's no longer the rule Again, yeah, so terrible law then Anyway, you said is it fair to say also that John Harbaugh said we were out of corners due to injury That's why they decided to go and live with the results. I'm good I would have went for simply because judging the momentum in overtime Would have caused the same result and unnecessary energy in my opinion, of course Yeah, with that agree to disagree I just Again with the two-point conversion. It's all or nothing and again I we know how to Ravens operate So what wasn't a big surprise that they were doing the call? I didn't like it But it wasn't a big surprise they were doing it cuz we know how they get down I do for sure think that the bingles game impacted that a lot because if the bingles were the one They get so aggressive, but we'll never know But anyway, he said I hear the news about Marlon Humphrey made me think of your video early in the week We've all we've known all year something ain't been right with him Then they signed a bunch of corners. The writing was on the wall now. I'm truly sad, but we have games to play I don't know how but I'll be here for it no matter what feeling like Apollo Creed And then he said let's be honest winning is definitely like a cologne The offensive line has been terrible outside of the KC game true the game is one up front But winning blurred the lines. I don't think so. I Disagree with that because That's what we've been talking about all year long man all year long We've been saying despite the team winning. We see these holes. We see these issues We see these things that Ravens if they went in which is great, but If they don't fix it ain't gonna be winning for long at least when it counts So I don't think it's really covered anything. It's made stuff look a little better But we still see those issues But he said now our injuries and realities are at the forefront During the winning we won without Lamar. So it was never really about him It was about a season that should have been lost in injury and may very well be That one that part confused me Let me read it again. He said during the winning we won without Lamar So it was never really about him it. Oh, this was about a season that should have been lost in injury That part I don't understand. I don't understand that part because we definitely were not winning without Lamar Obviously the Bears game, but besides that the wins the comebacks the crazy without Lamar. No, no, no I said Lamar Said Lamar has been as bad as Baker. He's just more talented I have no answers to what the rest of the season will hold just like you and wishing for the best. Oh He's been as bad as Baker. Well recently. He's been it's been pretty rough. It's been pretty rough as bad as Baker I would have to look at everything. I don't I would probably disagree with that based off of the games and Because again, we can't just get caught up in in the recency right now Lamar is definitely in a slump So if you say recently, he's been as bad as Baker. Okay, maybe but overall this season now No, no, no, no, no, no Not at all because Baker may feel like like you talk the offensive line over there is 20 times better The running backs over there 50 times better and that's not a shot at all guys. It's just they're healthy Well, they just did lose one guy for the season, but they only lost one guy for the season We've lost like 50 like 50 So they're wide receivers. I wouldn't say the Browns wide receivers now are better I mean, they had Odell Beckham, Jr. And Jarvis Landry and they had their Hollywood their version of Hollywood Higgins They had some people's Jones. So they got some some nice receivers now So they were comparable earlier. Then they got rid of Odell Beckham, Jr. So that the receivers are comparable But the offensive line their offense line is way better. They're running backs away better tight ends Mark Andrews better than all They're tight ends, but they have more complimentary tight ends complimentary to each other We got Mark Andrews and it's like, okay, Nick Boyle still hurt Josh Oliver He's been sort of in my they don't really use them too much anyway, but over there. They got Austin Hooper They got David in the joku. They got um, ah the guy who went to to Florida to FIU. I think I forget his name So to snow The Lamar's been as bad as Baker. No Because you got to look at context to and again, like you said the talent over there Is is overall is better. It's much better on the offense because again that just offensive line alone It makes such a big difference. Lamar don't have that if he had that offensive line. Oh, boy 84 no if he had that offensive line, what are we like 11 and 2 something great but with that with that offensive line things change a lot and I don't think that the slump that Lamar's in right now would be as bad of a slump if we had that offensive line Because I think that something that's contributed to Lamar's slump right now has been constantly having guys in his face Constantly having guys like be all that pressure the sex the hits always having to run for his life all season all season long like literally all season long and When you have to do so much physically every single game then it can catch up to you mentally too So I think it's definitely impacting Lamar just a lot this question came from a guy rainmaker and appreciate you being a patron He said a engraving hope all as well with you and the family and that includes pookie Oh, yeah, pookie a part of the squad to appreciate that I wonder if we were looking at things the wrong way as far as Boykin is concerned Bateman is starting to suffer from the same problem that Boykin had Lamar is not looking his way And he's running wide open sometimes Boykin had the same problem. Do you think Lamar has reverted back to? Being man Drew's dependent again, I know he's his safety blanket But he has to spread the ball around to keep defenses honest He almost has more interceptions this year than his other three years combined I know we have injuries up and down the roster, but using all of his weapons would help him out more Just one of your thoughts on this. Oh, yeah, we um When whenever we talked about Boykin And the situation that it was with him with the Ravens I always talked about how it wasn't that Boykin was so bad It was just that the chemistry was off because there was just a lack lack of opportunity lack of targets lack of consistency I know when um, whatever Boykin does when he messes up it would get highlighted So much more because he just got the ball so much less Like say for instance, if Hollywood messed up or Mark Andrews messed up Um, didn't it be like oh, okay, they just a little miscommunication But it's because they get a lot of targets So it wouldn't be blown up like it would be for Miles Boykin When he messes up it's like oh boy. Oh, this guy's terrible. Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh So when Miles Boykin is just um That that's all that it is uh, and we're yeah, we're Rashad Bateman it is I feel like it's a different kind of pressure on Rashad Bateman Because he's a first round draft pick Miles Boykin was a third round draft pick um So, I mean they're both receivers though and they both it's up to Lamar to uh when they're on the field If they're in a position to make a play it's up to him to get them the ball And if he's in the position to even get to the ball, you know, he'd be running for his life at the time But it's up to them to just make some happen So Rashad Bateman, I mean let's let's see how it plays out because Not only is it a different kind of pressure, but it's a different kind of pressure Not just on Rashad Bateman But a different kind of pressure on the Ravens organization as well because of his draft status and because of the investment So we'll see what these guys do and how they improve or Yeah, how they improve because There's not going to be any this is not going to be a lack of improvement It's going to be improvement They are going to have to make it happen because it's their first round pick next question came from my guy harry And I appreciate you being a patron and he always bringing some fire with his questions, man You know, he said hello and graven and team keeping clean family My question is who needs to be replaced from raving staff next year for the team to succeed I'm not rooting for anyone to lose that job But we all have jobs where we are being evaluated and if you can't perform you will be replaced Steve Saunders the strength and conditioning coach is the first person that needs to be replaced Just look at the players on injured reserve need I say more I mean, I really ain't got no follow-up for that because that's It's big. That's I And but it see the thing is so weird like how Can somebody really like Get that bad at their job that fast And I just I don't know man I don't know because again the ravens They they haven't dealt with injuries like this and like forever Like like like everybody getting hurt like Is it really him or is it just coincidence? I don't know. That's that's what makes it so tricky about steve saunders me anyway He said giro and james urban lamar has regressed in his play and we keep hearing how roman has all these great plays in the Vault but uses none of them Well, he was a couple of them against the stealers a couple of them. I was like, okay, let's go He said those two need to be replaced So with greg roman and james urban that's obviously offensive coordinator james urban is the qb coach um I if they're gonna replace them I just I don't even know how I don't even know what they're gonna do right now It's just it's crazy because you would think okay This offense the way that it's been they they could get replaced But then you think also too oh with the ravens give them a pass because of injury Um, and it's just it's so tricky. There's been these slow starts has been sometimes just lack of adjustment Sometimes there's been adjustments, but they came super late in games. Um And it's not all on giro. It's it's been on lamar as well Um, but you just wonder like how what what more can they do together as a unit? Is giro really the best guy to continue lamar's career with giro is a nice introductory guy. He was big in the run game with the passing games. Oh, it's okay But he was a good introductory guy, but is he a good guy moving forward for just lamar's growth There's something to uh to think about uh, and he said joe Joe d i'ma call him. I ain't gonna even try to mess up his last name the old line coach We have been bullied and pushed around so much and he hasn't coached up decent replacements. He gotta go My guy here. He ain't playing a day He said oh you you you you're out of here So he wanted pretty much sound like a whole new staff um, but yet offensive line It it's it's been bad and but a lot of guys have been injured Um, but even with the guys that are here, um Something that seems to be missing is just that dog that that heart It seems like that the offensive line is missing heart and just somebody that's just nasty But then cleveland's on the sideline anyway next up He said the one that I don't want to go is wink But if he doesn't change his philosophy and learn how to pressure the qb without blitzen and can't get guys to know their Assignments and be fundamentally sound He can go to and he said can't wait to see the comments on this one. Oh That should be fun, but yeah with wink. Um Hmm Wink has done a better job adjusting Especially over the past couple of weeks and and I know in the stealers game. Oh, yeah, they gave up 17 points in the fourth quarter That's that's not good at all. That's that's pretty bad But then you look at the situation like they have been keeping the stealers out of the end zone Three points through three quarters in the offense the ravens offense wasn't doing anything with it So it's like man the defense like I couldn't even be too mad at them For giving up 17 in the fourth couldn't be mad at that Because they have been doing that job for the longest and yet you want them to do that job Four quarters, but if you're doing your job so much and you notice somebody else They're like they they not doing anything and you just put all this working. It's like, oh man What more I got to do So that could frustrate you and then stuff just started breaking down and then it all fell apart So with wink though, I um I don't know man. It's just I right now. I just I really don't know I don't know what I want right now Because so much stuff is just all the way up in the air. Um, and it's just It's confused. But like you said about the pass rush about the pressure um Just situational football. That's it. There's just situational football We want guys that will be better at situational football But with this with you saying that you want g-road james urban going Joe D the offensive line coach going Um, and and I mean I would assume that you I know you said wink too if he doesn't make enough adjustments But are you including rob ryan in there too? It sounds like with with the whole staff The only person that you left off your list was hobble next question came from our guy Nick brick who is also a patient appreciates you he said I was mr. Optimistic until the Steelers game I think you said it best when you said Lamar looks broken But I think Greg Roman does too. What is this obsession with the big play? Whatever happened to the guys that wanted 10 play drives in third and shorts We as a fan base wanted them to hit on the big play opportunities They missed in the past and complete on the deep ball more But I didn't think we had to abandon everything else to do it But Martha on the ball 37 times and being our leading rusher is crazy against a team that has historically bad Rush defense whatever happened to one play at a time. Do you think we can get back to that before it's too late? We see flashes of it, but no consistency. We went from holding Lamar back To pushing him to his physical limits every play Wow, that is something right there And yeah, what what is this obsession with the big play? The big plays those are the sexy plays those are the plays that everybody remembers the most Those are the plays the highlight plays that get you accolades that get you on sports center But it more importantly it gets you that big chunky yards when the short plays in the short stuff you're struggling with Um, so ravens they I feel like with ravens. They they struggle so much on offense early on in games So then they start just Pressing they start pressing Lamar starts pressing G ro starts pressing the offense. They just start pressing as a whole. So this is what they should do my opinion um We know with the offense the the the up tempo quicker pace offense. That's been looking good I wish they would do that more in regular season games early on now Somebody brought up a good interesting point They were like, well, maybe with the up tempo offense. Maybe they're saving it for the playoffs catch some teams off guard see I just don't know because again Uh, I just I want to believe that so bad I want to but I just don't know if like first off you got to make the playoffs You got to and if your offense is going to only score like six points or seven points in the game And ain't gonna cut it even if they only gonna score 14 They ain't gonna cut unless your defense gonna be extra locked down, which they're not going to um but I I just I like I said, I want to believe it, but I just I can't um So they yeah, they got to work on the short game too. They got to work on the short game Every pass and play doesn't again. Lamar got to get better at them check downs Sometimes the check downs are there whether it be letavious or divante or patrick or whoever even a receiver come across Everything ain't got to be a 10 15 20 yard play You take the short stuff and enough time the short stuff turned into the long stuff too So it's just um, they got to spread the ball out more Lamar got to spread the ball out more giro got to call more plays More short passing game plays. You ain't got to send everybody deep every time That's probably why they got to have that such a rotation because dudes be getting tired. They be like, oh I'm tired of running all these deep breaths all the time. I need a break Next question came from the netter and appreciate you being a patron She said I ain't great even how you and the family are doing. We're doing pretty good She said, did you think that or do you think Lamar is okay because he seems a bit a little a little bit off Since he's been sick. I think that he might still be sick, but they are keeping quiet about it I'm just wondering. What do you think? Thank you for all that you do? Oh, thank you for all that you do and supporting and and you've been sending fire questions for Seems like years now But I I don't know I somebody oh it was my mom she brought that to my attention the other day She said that was a game I'm not sure if she's in after the stealers game or after the browns game But she said that was a game with Lamar his eyes. They just look extra like swollen and he just he just looked off And I don't know I didn't see it but um I know a lot of people have been thinking the same thing that Lamar is still like sick. He's still dealing with something I know he did say that he's 120 but I mean I wouldn't expect him to come out and say oh, yeah, I'm sick Ain't a white coming out and saying that um, but I I don't even know I don't even know Um, because that would that would make some stuff a little bit more clear Uh, but I hope he isn't I hope he's not Um, but I just I really like have no clue right now next question came from my guy marco He said ain't great And I want to ask your opinion because I'm not sure if I'm the only one seeing this and I don't Like it that I noticed that Lamar has been playing not as good from the pocket And taking too much time dancing around in the pocket and I don't like what I'm seeing because it feels like It's just going to be another heartbreaking playoff here if he keeps playing like that Why would you think he's holding on to the ball too much and being off on a lot of those because the offensive line Is not the greatest but it has given him enough time and he just holds on to the ball too much and they result in sex so um with that Yeah, he has been holding on to the ball for a uh a long long periods of time Resulting in some some good plays but also some bad plays And I think it's just him trying to compensate for everything that the ravens have lost this year They've lost a countless number of players to injury. Um, the offense It's just been slow And I think a lot of times that he just he puts everything on his back Because I mean everything has been on his back already, but I feel like with everybody that they lost and when they struggle He takes accountability. He's like, you know what it's on me. I gotta make some big happen I gotta give us that momentum. We need that boost. We need that just that jolt of energy And I think he takes it upon himself To try to make something happen Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't Next question also came from a patron my god Shakira He said are the ravens going to be forced to find a way to bring back mp juice, man Hey, um, that would certainly be something Uh, but yeah, he's not he's not coming back this year It'd be nice if we could just if if ravens could just turn injuries off Oh boy and imagine that it'd be like the avengers in uh, in end game Was it in game or the uh, whichever one Infinity war whichever one it was where they all came back. I think it was in game though But imagine that that that's how the ravens would be walking into the facility Then the music start going And all that because he would be like, whoa, you see gusts jk mp He did shut like Oh, that'd be crazy Too bad it's not happening
