 The talk all throughout the Ravens fan base this week despite the win has been of course about Justin Tucker 66 yard field goal Lamar Jackson's fourth and 19 conversion of Sammy Watkins but one of the biggest and most outrageous conversations this week has been about Hollywood Brown and those drops and those drops of course they contributed to this game and changed it from being a blowout to being an extremely close stressful just in the same game and we're happy that the Ravens got out of there with the win but it could have went either way but with Hollywood the Ravens had a presser today and he for the first time well for the first time professionally because he talked about it briefly on his twitch channel and he joked around about it he joked around with our guys simply as to me like man simply I got my notice turned on for you and I saw that you put me on blast with the highlight video it drops I was like come on man but he was he was like hearted about it and I really appreciated that but today the Ravens in the presser he took the questions head on and the first question that Hollywood got asked we know what happened in the Lions game we know that he had to go extra hard and practice this week the first question that he was asked so do you think it's long overdue that Justin Tucker finally got a 99 in Madden this is all good but he's a yeah and maybe because he's a Madden player you know he'd be stringing Madden on his twitch and stuff like that but anyway on to Hollywood they asked him about Lamar Jackson and how he's been this season and Hollywood said he's been looking good this season because they asked him how it was to have him back at practice since of course he's missed the last two days with the back and whatnot and of course everybody been talking about because he's been carrying the team anyway Hollywood said he's been very precise this year and that's a very very good word to use because for the most part he has been he has been very precise but anyway they asked him about about his bounce back game how do you bounce back from something like that what do you do like after having three huge drops game changing how do you bounce back from that and he said and they asked if do you do anything different in practice and he just said just go back to work he said we're not gonna let one game deteriorate our plan for the season and that's been a lot of the Ravens model this year them just the focus that they have continued to put the focus on the bigger picture not highlighting one play not highlighting individuals but just focusing on team and bigger picture and that's what you got to do now of course if there's anything that you do good at you want to try to do it even better if there's something that you do bad then you want to improve on that for sure so you know they're working on themselves but you know that focus is on the bigger picture as it should be he said he was happy to have a Rashad Bateman and Miles Boykin back and he's happy to see what the offense looks like with them and whenever they do come back I don't think Rashad Bateman gonna come back this week I think it's a much much higher chance that Boykin comes back this week but we'll talk about that later but whenever they do come back it it should open up this offense that much more it really should and the Ravens will have some nice little depth at receiver and it's all it's all about how they use them at that point how they use the guys who they have now and how they use it even more guys when they get even more so we'll see how Giro operates when that goes down he he was asked did he give Rashad Bateman like any advice as being a rookie and then getting injured early on and what advice did he have for Rashad Bateman and he said that he told Rashad Bateman to keep tunnel vision shout out to Kodak Black and he said don't listen to outside noise and you know with Hollywood it I mean you know with really anything anything you do especially if you have a job that's on public display there's gonna be a lot of outside noise because since your job is available to the public then that allows the public to criticize you to talk about you whether good or bad that just allows you to be spoken about so it can be easy to sort of pay attention you pay attention to the support and they can also pay attention to the hate as well but Hollywood telling Rashad Bateman to keep that tunnel vision that's important because that means just stay in focus don't listen to all that outside stuff stay focused on what you need to do so you can get it done he said that in James and Hensley I tweeted this shortly before the press today that he said he was working with catching the soccer balls after practice and they were like is that something that you suggested it like now that this is what I think it was Keith Williams the one that I think he was the one that that brought that drill to the Ravens I'm pretty sure it was Keith Williams I would anyway they asked him how does he get past the bad mentally how does he get how does he get past the bad plays mentally he said you just can't dwell on the past and you just got to move on but the one thing that I really appreciated about that his response was he said that you can't do it on the past and you just got to keep it moving but he said that's whether it's a good play or a bad play and I appreciated that a lot reason being because if you go out there you make a big play oh you're gonna be happy you're gonna be feeling yourself a little bit you're gonna go ahead and celebrate you're gonna go ahead and do your little first down mark if you score a touchdown you're gonna do whatever your celebration is you can walk out with your chest out a little bit more like oh yeah I got it and that's cool temporarily real quick but you got to get right back to it the next drive and if the next drive you go out there you feeling yourself and then you drop it or you fumble it you lose it you do something bad it's like oh so you could take yourself through this crazy range of emotions and and it's always important this and this is in life too it's important in life too more so in life than football of course that you never get too high on yourself but you also never get too low so you don't want to be a cocky arrogant person but you also don't want to be somebody that's overly critical of yourself and just always down on yourself so that that is an important lesson just like I said in life period not even just football like we talked about before a lot of stuff with football it applies to life as well it's always a lesson to be learned and he also talked about about all the hate on social media I think it was Clifton Brown that asked this question but he said well how do you feel about all the hate on social media because you know there's a lot of hate on there and like we always say social media is a gift and a curse all at the same time it's a gift and a curse because it can be used for good and you could connect with people all across the world you could just make so much business stuff happen you can see your friends and family and see what they up to and da da da da but then at the same time it does allow you to connect to people all over the world and sometimes some some people ain't the best people to be connected with so he said that with social media and I think Clifton asked him to do you just like get off of social media for a while he said I'm on social media all the time and he said I'm on there I laugh with him a lot and he said I put myself in their shoes like hey they could be like man I got this guy in fantasy and he out here doing that stuff he said he laughed with him so he said he reads everything he sees everything on social media and he just he laughs and he said he does not take it too serious and that is so important for anybody again football not just football players but just in life it's important that you don't take social media too seriously what a lot of people tend to do and this is kind of sidetracking a bit but it's important that we say this what a lot of people tend to do when it comes to social media they might be looking if they're on Instagram or YouTube or wherever they might be and it may be oh man wow oh they're doing this oh they're doing that oh wow they got this they got that I don't have it I don't have that oh man I wish I had that I should have that man what their lives are better than mine's because they have this they have that and and that's the worst thing that could possibly happen that's one of the worst parts about social media because it's created so many different platforms where people look at other people and they wish that they were them and they try to have what they have and obtain what they got and then they turn into jealous and then they start feeling down on themselves and it could just be a lot of negative on it's not all negative it all again it all depends on how you use it and like they always say with most people with social media you cannot go by that for their lives because they only put the good out there they won't talk about or put the bad up there they only put out the good so it's just with social media something that you just got to always be mindful of but again he did talk about how he doesn't take it too serious that's okay cool how they would now they ask them what happened on those plays what happened on the way what went down on those drops and he just said that it's unacceptable he ain't say that it was one particular thing he said it could have been a couple different thing but he just said straight up it's unacceptable and he said you don't ever want to drop a layup and he said it could be a number of things but it just can't happen regardless so he let that be known like I don't even care what it is it just it can't go down and then um he was asked about the ball if the ball that he dropped in the end zone if that had been deflected or not before he got to him because I know it was Sammy Watkins one of the the drops that Sammy Watkins had or the drop that he had down the sideline great pass and I said this during the game too I said it was a perfect pass by Lamar but the the cornerback just made an even more perfect play that cornerback barely got to that ball but he did tip it so I that's why I'm really a count that as really a drop drop on Sammy Watkins and I mean even the same thing kind of be said about Hollywood with that drop in the end zone it is a drop but still like when the timing is thrown off when you expecting the football to come to your hands and then that timing is thrown off by a deflection that's tough that's really tough but I forgot about that but anyway with Hollywood they asked if it got tipped before it got to him if it got deflected before it got to him and he said it don't matter that's it straight he just he said it don't matter so you could tell with Hollywood by his um his his body language his tone the way he spoke about this he's just ready to move on he's ready to move on he's ready to onto the Broncos that's it onto the Broncos he addressed it officially once and for all but he was ready to keep it moving and I'm sure we all are as well so I know there's been like these drop like the drops bring out a lot of crazy talk from people like first two weeks everybody like oh yeah Hollywood this Hollywood that yeah yeah yeah and then this past week I'm he's just Marquis now Hollywood at all not calling that guy Hollywood that's like so people they could be so flip floppy and I know again with sports a lot of people can get caught in the moment it can be very emotional what not and that's one of the most fun parts we love about sports but at the same time people they just sometimes they can think irrationally and some people forget that at their jobs they're not perfect at their jobs every single day some people forget at their school they're not a perfect student every single day some people forget that just in their lives they're not the perfect person every single day we have bad days whether it be at work school just life in general people have bad days and people are allowed to have bad days I think some fans they tend to forget that when it comes to some players when it comes to a lot of players because they'll be ready to flip over tables and just toss everything throw it all away trade this guy cut that guy bench that guy cuz they had a bad day now if we benched every single player every time they had a bad day his team would be terrible they'd be terrible if we benched every single player right after they had a bad play or even if they were even patient and like you know what we'll give you two bad plays and if you have two bad plays we're benching you buddy nobody would be out there Lamar he would have gotten benched Hollywood Sammy every everybody will be benched nobody will be safe cuz nobody plays perfect every single play well Lamar wasn't in the first three and a half quarters of that Lions game but nobody plays perfect all the time everybody has bad plays everybody has a bad game once in a while it happens so the quicker that a lot of us understand and realize that the better off mentally as a football fan you'll be we out
