 team keep it clean but you know what before we get started in this video I need y'all to chill out with all that Jim Harbaugh to the Ravens talk y'all y'all really want John and Jim on the same staff at the same no thanks y'all can keep that anyway team keep it clean I'm recording this video at halftime of the Titans in the bingos playoff game and boy oh boy did y'all see the Titans getting not only pressure but sacks with one two three four guys Ravens in this many and still don't even get either one but anyway that's all gonna change could it change for better or could it change for worse with whoever the next defensive coordinator is we'll see soon in the future but anyway I came across this very interesting tweet that it came out around the time that wink was I can't say fired I can't say let go when wink and Harbaugh decided they wanted to go their separate ways in that it was it was it was time and this came from Albert Breer and when I read it I was like hmm interesting but I don't know about it all let's read it together says some background on the surprising Ravens wink Martindale divorce he was in the final year of his deal and that is something that I did not know so I would assume that Greg Roman was in the final year of his deal too because I remember after 2019 the Ravens gave both of them significant raises making them the highest paid offense and defensive coordinators in the league so I would assume that those deals ran together at the same time but I don't know 1000% if they did but I guess we'll find out later maybe anyway he said he was in the final year of his deal other teams knew it and kicked tires on his availability now that I just I don't even know what to think about that because not saying it's not true but teams were checking on his availability what were they checking on his availability to be were they saying hey Ravens is wink available we want to interview him to be a head coach hey Ravens is wink available we thinking about him as a defensive coordinator now one would think it would be as a head coach but at the same time we always see a reporter okay this team is interested in that guy as a head coach this team is interested in that guy as a head coach this team we keep seeing that but we haven't seen not one thing on wink not one not to say there's not interest but we just we haven't seen anything and we've seen it on so many other people around the league but nothing on wink so I just thought that was interesting but anyway it says Baltimore didn't so they did not offer him an extension after how 2021 ended that led to the conclusion that a split now was best so instead of just riding this year out instead of just playing this year out and seeing how it goes like hey let's do said nope let's listen to the second part says this way rather than being a lame duck spot Martindale can pursue a multi-year deal and the Ravens can get their next long-term coordinator in place now and not a year from now I don't sense much animosity here just the right time for a change for everyone and this this screams out Eric Dacosta to me and the reason I'm gonna tell you is because the reason I think it screams out Eric Dacosta is because we remember when Eric Dacosta was it so many things Eric Dacosta let us know from jump he let us know from the very beginning from when he got introduced as Ravens GM he let us know everything that he was about and he talked about analytics he said he loves analytics and analytics will be heavily involved with the Ravens something else that he talked about was trying to get stuff done early rather than late and I think that's been a big difference between Eric Dacosta and Ozzie Newsom and it's not a shot at Ozzie Newsom at all because you know he did this thing obviously two Super Bowls with it anyway um Ozzie Newsom a lot of times he would hold on to players for just a bit too long but Eric Dacosta nine times out of ten he's willing a if this ain't working out hit the road Jack don't you come back no more no more no more but thank you though he did it with Tony Jefferson he did it with Eric Guetto with CJ Mosie let him play it out there was like I will give you an offer but never mind but we've seen it with with I was about to say Ryan Jensen but I meant Alex Lewis with the receiver Jordan lastly and there's been a there's been plenty others too and it comes on the flip side as well to where instead of waiting till they're their deal expires you're giving extension to Tavon Young giving extension to Marshall Yanda gave an extension to Justin Tucker Marlon Humphrey and so you see it so it goes both ways whether it's getting rid of somebody or is whether it's getting some giving somebody an extension Eric Dacosta has shown that he does stuff early rather than late he doesn't like waiting until the very end but with this the whole G-roll thing this is why to me it seems like a firing you can put all the pretty words on it you want to you can make it look as beautiful as possible you can even set well you can't even say for this one because there's been times when you like you know if you work somewhere you know there's a big difference between you getting fired and you getting laid off because especially when you telling people the story like oh man if you you're telling the right person or you're telling the wrong person depending on how you feel about them and they feel about you and you may have a certain reputation you may make it like oh man if I say that I got fired oh man that's gonna make me look so bad only been at this job for like a week and oh man like that I can't say you know okay I got this hey I got some news I um I got laid off today yeah yeah it's okay then everybody oh no that's okay you got laid off all what happened but if you say you got fired they'd be like man what happened to you what would you get fired for so it's just the wording it changes the perception and with the Ravens we've seen this before and we'll see it again in the future too but the wording changes the perception if people look at even on a resume if you put your work history and whatnot they like hey what happened here if you put that you got fired they'd be like man you got fired why should we hire you if you over here getting fired from over there but on your work history if you put you got laid off they'll be like oh okay company was downsizing it was budget cuts okay it wasn't you it was them so that's exactly what this situation looks like to me but hey who knows it is what it is right but something that is interesting and I guess we just got to wait for it now too um the Raven wink this is not the only guy who's in a lame duck year for his contract and we know plenty of players who only got one year left on their deal but we ain't talking about players right now now I mentioned earlier how with Greg Roman I would expect him to also be in a lame duck year of his contract but I don't know the specifics if anybody does know the specifics put it in the comment section but the Raven's head coach John Harbaugh he has one year left on his deal we haven't heard anything about an extension so Eric DeCosta is Eric DeCosta gonna be like all right is he gonna get something done early rather than later I hope not I don't think he should he got to make Harbaugh earn this thing man he has to what have you done for me lately what have you done for me lately because again we know the Super Bowl Super Bowl we in 2022 Super Bowl was nine years ago nine years because it came in 2013 the 2000 2012 season obviously but it came in 2013 so that was nine years ago so it's it's put up a shut-up time but I'm very interested to see how the Ravens and how Eric DeCosta and how Steve Busciotti how all of them handle John Harbaugh's deal because again with with with this information coming out have there been conversations to with John oh I'm sure there have been I'm sure there have been plenty I would love to be in the room for those conversations just sitting back like mm-hmm okay mm-hmm yeah mm-hmm oh that's a good point mm-hmm oh yeah mm-hmm okay yeah okay I would love to just be in there to listen I could get my input to I get my two cents but I wouldn't mind just sitting there listening to see what was said what was it about what they brought up I would just love it but I'm not that's okay so we'll see we'll see how this whole thing goes we'll see how this whole situation ends up playing out and if wink is gonna be the only guy that a move is made on I don't think he should be but this whole the this whole thing about oh cuz it's because he's in the last year of his deal and that they just decided it was time to part ways so he couldn't play he couldn't coach for one more year that's what you're telling me he unless they straight up told him like look man when you got one year left on your deal we're not gonna we're not gonna give you an extension unless they told him that like we're not gonna extend you after this year this is gonna be your final year with the team unless that's what was said which like I get we could have been like oh you know what if that's the case let's let me just go let me just go but I feel like if Ravens really loved wink if they really wanted to keep wink around then they would have options they could be like you know what hey we want you to stay they could have told him that they could be like a wink it's this your last year prove it show us what you about or they could be like wink if we want you to stay and we want you to prove what you about but you know what just to stay but give you a little more incentive we'll give you a little race we'll give you a little race plenty of players and I know playing and coaching is much different but plenty of players they end up playing out on that last year and they got approved stuff but it happens with coaches as well it happens with coaches as well so that's why I just the whole old they decided it was time to partway season last year if it's I just still came by it and hey man I could be wrong I have been wrong before and I will be wrong plenty of times again I could be completely wrong about this whole thing but just basing it off of Eric the Costa and like I said everything that he told us from jump this just it seems like they let him go but anyway I'm sure more information will come out in the coming days know that I have gotten every single one of your question from subscribers on this and so many other subjects too and we'll talk about it all very soon this week if you send a question over the past couple of days even over the past week and a half this will be the week that you should see it so please be patient I appreciate
