 With Ravens news, when it rains, it pours. They started off this morning. John Harbaugh had his presser early, early this morning. And he dropped a lot of John Harbaugh gyms. He threw a lot of smoke screens in there too. And then following that, Jacina Anderson reported that the Ravens had made Bobby Wagner a very competitive contract offer. And then something that I don't know if it's official or not, that's why we didn't do a video on it, came out that the Ravens reportedly offered a trade to the Seahawks for DK Metcavis. They're them, the Patriots and the Jets. But the source wasn't a reputable source that I know of. So I was like, oh, okay, whatever, I don't believe it. But then this, this, the Ravens, they hired Kerry Dixon as the assistant quarterback's coach. And initially I was like, oh, okay. They hired an assistant quarterback coach. But then I read some of the Ravens article and I was like, oh, okay. And just in the second paragraph alone, it said so much to me in so little words. But let's, let's read it. Let's start with the first paragraph first. It said, Baltimore Ravens head coach John Hardball announced Monday that the team has hired Kerry Dixon as assistant quarterback coach. Okay, cool. But let's get to the good stuff. It says, Dixon joins Baltimore staff after 15 seasons as a collegiate assistant. Okay, cool, cool, cool. Most recently, from 2019 to 2021, serving as wide receivers coach at Georgia Tech. So that part right there, he's gonna be the assistant quarterback's coach, but he has experienced being a wide receiver coach in the NCAA. So that experience can help him in his new role when he helps out James Urban and he also helps out one Lamar Jackson. So he can give him another point of view on how to see things, how to see his receivers, how to get his receivers involved. See, that wasn't even the best part for me. Let's keep reading. It says, also at Georgia Tech, he was instrumental in the Yellow Jackets transition from an option-based offensive scheme to a pro-style spread attack. And that was my favorite part. Let's read it one more time. He was instrumental in the Yellow Jackets transition from an option-based offensive scheme. Does that sound familiar at all? Maybe a little bit, maybe? To a pro-style spread attack. Ravens are trying to get this passing game right. They are trying to get it right. And I respect that so much and I love it. Now last year, we saw a lot of glimpses of the Ravens actually having a passing game and it caught a lot of us by surprise. Cause we was like, whoa, what is this? Ravens are passing the ball so much. And it was so weird. But a lot of us, especially myself, I loved it. But I would have loved it more if obviously the offensive line was better, if our running game was better. And if just the production, if the production was better as well, but it did show me like, hey, they can do it. They can do it. But one thing that I was concerned about was the reason behind them doing it. Because, and y'all have heard me say this all off season, that I feel like the only reason that they were really passing the ball like that was because there was no JK, no Justice Hill, no Gus Edwards. The running game was not there. So they were like, we really ain't got no choice but to pass the ball. But now, this, this is showing me that the Ravens are choosing to pass. Now, of course, seeing is believing. This is early in, we gotta see exactly what the Ravens do and how they move forward. But this also lets me know, it lets me know that Greg Roman is in the final year with the Ravens. I really do believe that. And I believe that even before they hired Keri Dixon. Reason being, when I really first believed that was when they first brought on T. Martin and Keith Williams. And the reason I believe that was because, and we know, yeah, hardball, he loves Jiro. But I was just telling my guy JT a little bit ago. I said, well, he does love Jiro, but he loves his job more. So if the Ravens were like, hey, hardball, this, see the U, hey, if you wanna ride with him cool, you can go too. But you let us know. Hardball would say, Jiro, you got to Jiggo, bye. And I'm not on here to be, oh, fire Jiro, Jiro. No, we not on that. We know Jiro's here. And we hope Jiro has a lot of success this season because that would mean the Ravens have a lot of success. This season, the offense has a lot of success and hopefully they score a lot of points. But the beginning of the end for Jiro for me was when they hired again, T-Martin and Keith Williams because they brought in guys to help his area of weakness and what has been an area of weakness for the Ravens for a very long time. They brought those guys in to help with the passing game. And we saw an immediate impact, immediate impact. But when somebody, when you're an employer, if you're struggling in an area and you've been struggling in that area for so long and you've always struggled in that area and your employer knows your history now, they know it. They've actually been a part of your history. They've seen it on the opposite end when you work for a different company but they hired you, they hired you, knowing that they still hired you, okay, cool. But they brought in some people in your areas of weakness. That's the beginning of the end for you. It really is. They're not gonna be like, oh, you know what? We're just gonna have these guys just keep helping you out forever. No, they're not going to do that. And I'm not saying, oh, Jiro slips up. He's gonna be going mid-season. It's a possibility. But I do believe that this is it. Even if he does have a successful season with the Ravens, I still think that they are going to move on. I do not think that he is going to be here in 2023. I just don't. I do not see that happening. And this hire, it just, it gives me another confirmation of that, especially from that last line, man. Now I ain't saying that he's gonna come in here and transition the Ravens from an option-based offensive scheme to a pro-style spread attack. But Ravens, their writers, who wrote this? Let me see who wrote this. Let me see who wrote this article real quick. I can't even find an author right now. But whoever wrote it, they put that in there on purpose. This gotta get approved by the editor and all that stuff, you know how writing goes. But it's in there for a reason. They letting you know, like, hey, this guy got experience transitioning from this option-based to a pro-style. And that's early in the paragraph for a reason, because they know people got short attention spans. They didn't know some people ain't gonna read that whole article. But anyway, maybe it's just me. Nah, it ain't no coincidence. Another thing that this lets me know is that some guy, some of the crazy dude, half the time, he'd just be saying stuff. He don't know what he be talking about half the time. He don't know what's going on. Some of the crazy dude been saying it for months that the Ravens, they for sure are gonna draft a wire receiver in the first three rounds of the draft. Some dude be saying that. Some people, whenever he say that, some people be like, oh man, he don't know what he talking about. Oh man, they ain't gonna do that. Why would they draft another wire receiver? But this actually lets me know that maybe he's not so crazy after all. Because this is another move that would up the Ravens passing attack. This is another move that really could help them continue that from what we saw glimpses of last season. But I think it's pretty much confirmed. I mean, again, I felt like it was already confirmed before. But now with this hire, I really do for sure. First three rounds, wide receiver. Yes, yes, it's happening. It's happening. A lot of y'all might not like it, but hey, that's, I don't make the rules. But it's happening. And even with that, again, it's not that James Pro Shade is such a bad receiver. It's not that Devin Duvenay is such a bad receiver. It's not that Tyler Wallace is a bad receiver. They're not bad guys or bad receivers, anything like that. But Ravens just, they need more. They need more. And they need somebody who they're gonna be invested in. Cause again, we know the whole, the draft spot, it changes everything. It just changes your level of investment, depending on what franchise you go to. But it's happening. First three rounds, wide receiver for sure. Book it, book it, cause it's going down. But they just need a dynamic playmaker. And again, it's not even just about the hands to me. It's about what you do after you got the ball in your hand. The y'all's after the catch. Y'all's after the catch. Make everybody's job easier. The Ravens, with this hire, it seems as if they are trying to make everybody's job that much easier. I had a QB coach already, but you know what? Let me get you an assistant. Let me make your job that much easier. Lamar Jackson, already got a QB coach, James Urban. They're like, oh, you know what, Lamar? Let's give you a little different point of view. Bringing a brother that could just help out James Urban and whatnot, help you out some more. Let's try to make your job easier. Oh, hold up. This dude, what? This dude used to be a wide receiver coach, too? What? Oh, really? Oh, oh, oh, he got experience with that, too? Oh, okay, we gonna bring him in. He can help our offense out. You know what, Greg Roman, let's help make your job easier. Oh, last year. Oh, oh man. Oh, we brought in T. Martin and, I mean, T. Martin and Keith Williams to make whose job easier? Who was struggling with their job? Who it was hard for in this special area? Greg Roman, okay, Greg Roman, let's make your job even easier. Again, I just think they're gonna show him. Well, they might not even show him the door, but again, one of those mutual agreements to where they part ways. But anyway, I like this, man. I like this. Initially, I thought this was like, okay, or whatever, move on, let me hire somebody new. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's not, but I'm with it. Love y'all, we out.
