 1 and 3, 1 and 3, 1 and 3. Those are numbers that continue to be highlighted when people talk about the potential of these Baltimore Ravens. Are they really a Super Bowl team? And there's some people that still do not believe in the Baltimore Ravens as a Super Bowl team. And they go right to that number because they say, Hey, Lamar Jackson and those Baltimore Ravens in the playoffs, they are 1 and 3. And that is no good. And those are facts that the Baltimore Ravens are 1 and 3. But Lamar Jackson, the Baltimore Ravens, they haven't had an opportunity to change that number yet over the past couple of years because we remember in the Beals playoff game back in 2020, he got knocked out with a concussion in the regular season around this time. He got knocked out with a high ankle sprain two years ago. And then last year in the regular season around this time, he got the PCL injury taken a sec in the Broncos game. Now while Lamar Jackson, he was knocked out in those games with injury. It wasn't anything crazy that he was doing to get those injuries. It would just happen to be freak accidents because in the Beals playoff game, Patrick McCurry, he threw it too high, Lamar Jackson went to go get it, then he threw it away, and then he took a hit and he landed right on his head on the turf. And then in the Browns game two years ago, it was a pass and play. Jock rushed him, Lamar threw it, completed the pass too, by the way. And Jock sort of twisted his ankle a bit. I don't think it was malicious, but Lamar was out for the season after that. And then in the game last year against the Broncos, he was in a pocket and just got sacked, failed the wrong way, PCL injury, boom, he's done for the year. So despite a lot of narratives that people put out there, oh Lamar Jackson, he got hurt because he'd run in too much. No, that wasn't the case, but he did get hurt. And the Baltimore Ravens and Lamar Jackson, they realized that and they recognize it. And they've taken some steps, which is great for the Baltimore Ravens, but they've taken some extra steps for Lamar Jackson self-preservation. And we're going to get into exactly what they've been doing. But before we get into that, I appreciate y'all subscribing to the channel. We are at 70,100 subscribers. I appreciate y'all a lot.

Now, one of the things with Lamar Jackson that we've noticed this year, and we've talked about this a countless number of times, when he takes off, he's not running the same way that he ran before. He's not trying to charge through tacklers, anything. He's not really fighting for extra yards that much. He's really not even taking as much contact as he would before. So Lamar Jackson has certainly been aware of his own self-preservation, been really trying to take extra care of his body. And again, despite the fact that his running didn't even get him hurt last time, it wasn't his running that got him hurt. It just stuff from the pocket end up getting him hurt. But with Lamar Jackson, he's noticed it. And he said it in the interview last week with Devon McCoy. He said, no, I still got it. Don't get it twisted. I still got it. But I've been holding back. And with him holding back, he's thinking about the long haul. He's thinking about the long run of the season and that he really wants to do every single thing in his power to be with his guys at this point in the season. Because again, the past two years, he hasn't been there. He hasn't been there. So we haven't gotten to see the true potential of the Baltimore Ravens. And that is one of the most frustrating things to think about. Because again, one in three, that gets highlighted all the time. But we just don't know what it could have been because we haven't had our quarterback at the end of the season the past two years. But now Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens, too, they're doing everything in their power to make sure that he is here. Now, something else that the Baltimore Ravens have been doing. And y'all, please let me know if I'm wrong about this one. But this is just to my naked eye. I haven't looked up any numbers or anything like that. But to me, it seems as if the Baltimore Ravens are doing a lot less design runs with Lamar Jackson than they did before. Now, he's still get his. And I do believe he is still the leading rusher at quarterback in the NFL. But the design runs have been a lot less. Now, sometimes it could be a little annoying when those design runs come through. The timing of them can be bad sometimes, but I feel like we've been seeing a lot less of them. And that's one big part of the scheme that I appreciate. Now, something else that I've appreciated even more that where there's been such a change in the Baltimore Ravens scheme, the way that they run their offense, the check downs, the check downs, because we remember where Lamar Jackson before, like before this year, when it came to check downs, oh, that was not Lamar Jackson's thing. Lamar Jackson, it was deep ball or nothing. He would wait, wait, wait for something to develop. And again, that could have been due to the scheme or whatnot. But now the Baltimore Ravens, they're like, all right, Greg Roman, we're going to go in a different direction. All right, cool. Thanks, Greg Roman for everything. He was not a bad offensive coordinator. Just had a lot of bad moments sometimes. But they were like, all right, top monkey come through. And one thing that I really appreciated about this offense is the involvement of the check downs. When you have those check downs, that gets the ball out of your quarterback's hands a lot quicker. And that gives it to somebody else. So your quarterback, it's a lot less Superman stuff that Lamar Jackson has to do. Now, sometimes you still got to put on that cape. Now, I mean, in the last game, no, the defense, they had on that cape. But anyway, Lamar Jackson has had to do a lot less this year when it comes to the Superman stuff, because with the check down game alone, that puts it on August, that puts it on a justice here, that puts it on a key in Mitchell. So that's been really, really nice to see the offense involving the backs in the passing game, because that's just something that makes it a lot easier. Now, the way that the Baltimore Ravens attacked wide receiver this offseason, that helps out Lamar Jackson to that helps out his self preservation, because when you have more options, more options on the field at pass catcher, more weapons on the field for your quarterback, that allows your quarterback to have to be less of a weapon himself. And again, self preservation, it goes a long way, taking care of your quarterback in more ways than one, it makes such a big difference in the way that the Ravens did it this offseason at wide receiving just pass catcher in general, because you already had Mark Andrews, you already had Isaiah likely, you had Rashad Bateman, you had Charlie Kohler, so you had a lot of guys there already, you had a Devon Duvenay, Tyler Wiles, but the Ravens were like, no, you know what, let's get Odell Beckham, Jr. And yeah, he hadn't played for a year and whatnot, and it's been taking them a little while to get going, but now he seems to have really sort of hit a stride, which is a great thing. They signed Odell Beckham, Jr., and they could have been like, you know what, we're done. They also signed Nelson Aguilas, and they actually signed Nelson Aguilas before they signed Odell Beckham Jr. So they could have been like, oh, no, we're done at Nelson Aguilas, but they was like, no, we're not done. Then they signed Odell Beckham, Jr., and they were like, no, we're not done. And on top of everything else, they drafted Zay Flowers. On the same day that they came to a contract agreement with their quarterback Lamar Jackson, and they had already signed to receivers, and you still had Rashad Bateman, you still had Tyler Wiles, you still had a Devon Duvenay, they still drafted Zay Flowers from Broward County, too, by the way. So again, helping make Lamar Jackson's job easier, but also doing things to help preserve the health of Lamar Jackson. And those things make such a big difference, and that's why the Baltimore Ravens have really set themselves up nice for their quarterback to be here at the end of the year, for their quarterback to be here come playoff time, and hopefully their quarterback to be here and play all the way through February. So we can stop hearing about this whole one and three, one and three, one and three, because I know I'm tired of hearing about it. I know y'all are definitely tired of hearing about it too. But now this year, the way that the Baltimore Ravens have been doing things in Lamar Jackson, it's time to change that narrative.
