 You think Steve Smith would allow that you think Steve's missing after everything that they just went through on his 39 football game And before that you think he would allow the Baltimore Ravens to even think about trading for Jerry, Judy Oh, man, if they even thought about it, Steve's missing it would be on the first flight to BWI and shut that whole thing down But let's get to my guys question first one came from my guy Alex He said and gravy and hope you and the family are doing well. Hey, we are doing great I got a lot of love for you and appreciation for you Alex. Let's get into it He said I wanted to ask about your thoughts about Rashad Bateman in his situation throughout his career He has battled with injuries and has never gotten over a thousand yards season And he doesn't seem to be living up to that Minnesota version of bait that we saw in college And it just seems like he has turned into a bust. I know that he had one bad game You can't really judge him for that but with the Broncos rumored to be up for trading Jerry, Judy Do you think we should take this opportunity and get a wide receiver that has proven hands Jerry Judy proven hands? Whoa? Look, I love Jerry Judy. I do Proven hand. Oh, well, let's get into it. He said why see that has proven hands and route running skills for bait And maybe a fourth round pick hold up now because Bateman got those same things that you saying that Jerry Judy got Jerry Judy could run all the routes in the world But Bateman can too Jerry Judy hands. They could be a little shaky Bateman's can too So he said I don't really have anyone to talk about the Ravens with and I thought I might just throw the question out There just because he said anyway have a good day. Hey Alex, you have an even better one now with with Jerry Judy like I just feel like it would be Not I feel like it would almost be a lot of remove if they traded Rashad Bateman for Jerry Judy So and I know that I've seen some people saying oh man, what but but Jerry Judy He already knows Lamar. He friends with Lamar. He from South Florida to yay from Deville Beach So yeah, he will fit right and yeah, he will fit right in with the Florida Ravens. Hey, so that that part right there I ain't got no problem with that but y'all already know me But you you said that you feel like Rashad Bateman is almost entering the bus territory But I feel like if you feel that way about Rashad Bateman Do you feel that way about Jerry Judy as well? Because I know he's he's had his struggles too at the YRC position He's had his troubles staying healthy from time to time. He's had his problems with drops and whatnot He's had a lack of production too. So I don't feel like the Ravens should trade for Jerry Judy I wouldn't mind Jerry Judy on the Ravens, but I feel like if they were to trade Rashad Bateman for Jerry Judy that it just I don't think it would really make sense Next question came from my guy Plex who has been a team keeping clean patron for a while now But he said same old same old defense held up for as long as they could I can't fault them at all I watched a receiver that we should have drafted give us that work when the player we drafted instead was inactive He said our receivers had a horrible game I believe there were eight drops four could have been touchdowns mark bait Nelson I believe they scores if he doesn't fall the more has to stop fumbling No, but I can't be mad at him when there's strip sacks when he's about to throw a tackle should block better But file a lay against TJ white it is what it is Ronnie on the other hand my goodness But more than anything this was a type of loss we consistently have boom that right there Failure to execute in suspect coaching decisions. Monk and didn't call a bad game He sure didn't that the ball just kept dropping out of receivers hands. Monk and can't do nothing about that He said that possession after the recovered fumble was suspect. Oh, you talking about after the After the fumble on special teams But anyway, he said but it shouldn't have come down to that drops aside Had we taken the field goal before the half were up five as opposed to two and we would have forced them to need a touchdown Well, I mean, you know the whole fumble. I mean the whole not taking a field goal story Well Tyler Lindemann say I got this, but anyway I mean they scored a touchdown anyway, but defensive play calling would have been different I said it last year. It's that time for hardball. He didn't cause drops and yada yada yada But we have multiple losses like this every year and I'm tired of it. Nobody goes undefeated But we beat ourselves over and over and that has to fall on the head coach But what do I know? I'm just a fan at the end of the ball watching the game Oh, my guy and forget about them into the ball commons I don't really think any fans did it might slip your mind sometimes here in there But I don't think you truly forgot about it. But anyway, he also said Tyler said that the fourth and two was on him He saw a player jump and snapped the ball. He should not have been put in that position story time I have a four-year-old recently. He wrote on the wall with a sharpie and cut the clothes He was wearing with scissors. I've taught him better than that He knows not to do that But at the end of the day the sharpie shouldn't have been out and he shouldn't have had easy access to the scissors That's on me. Send the kicking team out there from the jump. That's on hardball. Oh, I love a good analogy I love that and I really appreciate the way that you broke that down like Perfectly perfect or didn't perfect even though perfect there ain't even a word But it should be just because of how you broke everything down just now today's first touchdown Next question came from a guy sitting and he said ain't great I hope you and the family are doing great not so much a question here But more of a prediction and I know your question from sub video will be after the Steelers game because he sent this before So we'll already know that how this went down But I had a dream last night as they went up high unlikely with his size I know but we'll see it snagged his first touchdown as Raven to put us 14-0 against the Steelers. Let's see if it comes true. I hope he gets one soon. He deserves it as a bonus I'm feeling 31 15 Ravens as the score. Hey, look, you should have been right You you you should have been right with all of that, but I mean all them drops, you know He said also with being from the UK, I'm going to see us play the Titans next weekend I'm so hyped for it I was planning to save up to see them at the bank someday after Hobb said he didn't want to go back to London Anytime soon after that last trip there. So I'm glad he changes mine on that one Well, maybe NFL they changed his mind for him on that one. He said win or lose I know I'm gonna have an amazing day, but I have faith we can get the win I think the Raven should be able to now me I think for the Baltimore Ravens to really get back on track in my opinion And this don't even sound crazy to me. It may sound so crazy to some of y'all But I think they need to have a Dolphins Broncos type of game not even necessarily 70 points But for Ravens to really get their confidence back and really get their swagger back and get back on point They need to put up like almost 50 and the Titans need to have like 15 or 20 So it this game does not need to be close and Ravens need to look absolutely Unstoppable for them to be back on point in my opinion next questions came from my guy Java He said what I want to say about that game is not team keep it clean friendly And I have a lot of questions, but I know they'll be answered from other subscribers question So my simple question is this do you think dude should get more stats because do he's not dropping passes? well do Yeah, I mean couldn't hurt it couldn't hurt and I mean with Odell Beckham Jr. Hurt I think that Odell Beckham Jr. should rest until he's like all the way all the way ready to go not limping not dragging along I feel like he needs to be all the way ready to go because I mean he ain't dropping passes either But he just again he seems real hobbled and he said do you think we should have paid de hop instead of OBJ? You know that now de hop was always my first. That was always my guy That was all me will always do the receiver that I really really really wanted the Ravens to always get it came Close to having them before then it didn't happen then it seemed like it we ever aren't rumors that it was close again But it didn't happen again. So he would have always been my priority over Odell Beckham, Jr. I had no problem though. They'll Beckham Jr signing now But de hop was always always always my number one guy and he also said headed in the week six How many excuses we gonna keep making about this team getting it together? Oh? They they just got to stop being their own worst enemy that that's the biggest thing with them He also said apparently Broncos are clearing house according to rumors should EDC make a call about Jerry, Judy. Okay He said rumors in sports talk shows are saying we should make a move to say Juan Barclay What do you thought on that me personally? I would love to see the move and I take back what I said about getting Jerry Judy because he's a no-show and It's these men senior says you trash then you trash LL I can't call them trash man. Um, it's these men senior man. Don't don't comments boy. They that's that's tough man That's tough like to call somebody just a guy. Oh, that's whoo. That's that's rough But anyway, uh with Jerry Judy again, I like If they just added Jerry Judy like straight up and he they welcome him with the receiver that the Ravens already got Hey, cool But who you taking off while you trading away Devon Duvenay who a lot of Ravens fans have just been wondering like oh What's gonna happen with him? What are you gonna give up to get a Jerry, Judy? I just don't think that will be the move was like unless you like giving away like a fifth or six round picks I'm like, okay, whatever But if you give enough significant draft capital, so I just don't think that would be the move that they need to do to Really put them over the top next question came from Hunter. He said trade Stanley Oh engraving leave always having such great content and keeping us up to date on all things Ravens What are your thoughts on the Ravens trading Ronnie Stanley in the offseason for a bona fide ad Russia or a couple of draft picks? I have to see how the contract breaks down, but it would be something that Well Ronnie Stanley because it's just it's been a lot of the same stuff man He's just been hurt a lot and he's obviously gets paid a lot of money, but we're Ronnie Stanley It's like even but when he's there, it's like hold up Ronnie Sam. Are you the same guy? Are you the same player that you used to be? I don't know I don't know now. I'm not this big offensive line guru anything like that I'm sure some other people could tell you more about Ronnie Stanley and more detailed and I could but we've seen a lot of Times where people just just beating Ronnie Stanley like straight up just whooping the dog in them and I'm like whoa Whoa, Ronnie, what's up, baby? What's going on? So if the Ravens traded him if his if his contract allowed it They've done a lot of restructure every time they restructure Ronnie Stanley's one of first people they go to So I don't even know if he's tradeable But if it did come to time where they could actually get his contract off the books in a clean way Then I think it could be a move that the Ravens would think about because Ronnie Stanley is like hardly ever available for him And he said it was in the wrong way that he said that he won't play until he's 100% There's no player in NFL that's 100% healthy and not banged up So why does he get to decide that he has to be 100% before he's out there? I know he's one of the best linemen in the game right now But it seems he doesn't have the mentality of a true Raven anymore Maybe maybe just he just don't want to hurt himself or injure himself further. He just want to play it extra extra safe I'm not sure what it is, but some's got to give this year Ronnie Stanley next question came from my god, baby He said honestly this game against Pittsburgh reminded me of the playoff game against the Titans The only thing different was Lamar had Hollywood Brown There is not an excuse for this why receiver court did Ravens waste well needed money on these players that continually get injured And their inability to be playmakers also well before we get to this next part We'll see after five weeks Nelson Aguilore has been worth the and it was a small investment for him But he's been worth it. Ze flowers has been worth the first round draft pick. Oh, they'll back on Junior thus far No, not yet. We just we got to be honest about it. Not yet. Hasn't been worth the 15 mil yet Hopefully as the season progresses he will be but so far not not yet and Rashal Bateman He's also had a rough start to this season so far But hopefully both of those guys could turn around man Hopefully they can both turn around and he said why haven't the Ravens made it important protecting Lamar in drafting a left tackle to replace The always injured Ronnie Stanley see look at that team keeping clean be on point like they'd be they'd be on point with The thoughts and whatnot and just what they be thinking about He said not trying to be negative, but the move they aren't making or holding this city back from a championship So with Ronnie Stain, I think that's what we talked about before with the contract with his money He makes a lot of money. So Ravens have a lot of money invested into him So it's like if you got that much money invested into him then you in a tricky spot Even though yeah, he gets hurt a lot. He missed a lot of time You in a tricky spot because that's your guy. That's your left tackle And you don't want to invest more money into the left tackle position or more significant money into the left tackle position Because you already got a lot invested into him and you want him to be that guy And he said it's hard ball really that important or are the Ravens scared to make a change or scared to hold him? Accountable your thoughts I Think we'll see we'll see this year Depending on how things go depending on how things change even going into this London game We'll see like it's a lot is riding on this season in my opinion and it should be But all eyes need to eyes need to be open that that's my point eyes need to be open People way at the top pass hardball need to really be looking at this thing like hey We got this guy that got that got another got a nice roster got a nice squad We need to be getting the most out of them the draft turnover is crazy next question came from my guys today And he said angry and hope you and a family are doing well. Shout out for all the love on the live videos as well Oh, no, I appreciate you always coming through to the live streams, man He said I may be over analyzing this right now, but I'm starting to notice that EDC's draft picks Don't have any longevity so far only two players at EDC has drafted have received extensions Justice Hill and Broderick Washington and no first-rounders have had their fifth-year option picked up With the way that things are currently looking Bateman in a way aren't gonna get their options picked up either Especially with Kyle Hamilton and Linda bomb coming up after next season Also a lot of players from EDC's drafts don't even play for the Ravens anymore via trade or release He was the only player retained from his first draft in 2019 and currently Broderick Washington is the only one from the 2020 draft class well Ain't Patrick green 2020 right? I'm pretty sure he was anyway He said I know the draft shouldn't be the only way to build a team But EDC is creating a bad pattern of not being able to keep his picks beyond their rookie deals Some don't even make it past their rookie season I will give him credit for cutting his losses and getting a good return for players that don't work out though And he said the 2019 draft class Hollywood Brown traded Miles Boykin release Justice Hill extended Ben Powers price himself out even Marshall He said ghost released daily Mac release trace mix or the release 2020 draft class Patrick Queen possible extension or price out JK Dobbins will see Madi BK will see Devon Duvenay will see linebacker Malik Harrison will see Tyree Philips release Ben Bredesen traded Broderick Washington extended James Roshay released Geno stone released and resigned as a free agent and then resigned again. So yeah, so yeah I would air the cost of yet the draft turnover is shaky. So hopefully Moving forward he can get not only retain more draft picks will really get more impact from them volume and passing That's question came from my god And he said the bright side about the stealers game is that monkey and Lamar were dialing it up in the past game Perfect throws just drops in my opinion. That's the growing pain This is the most Lamar pass in a single game this season The receivers just need to get to work and to do their job, which I know they can this was OBJ and Bateman's first game back Imagine our future once they are clicking. Yeah, and we've been having that conversation for a little while now Now I know it's just week five. Well, it's week six now So we talk about just imagine once they really get it going it's gonna be nice But when are they gonna get it going because that game was a perfect opportunity to have it going I mean Lamar had everything on point the receivers were getting open and that is a big part of the game right there But you got to finish in order to be the best you can possibly be just catch the ball, baby Is Lamar too soft or friendly as a leader to get the Ravens over the hump next question came from my god Joshua, he said a engraving great job is always with the channel keep up the great work in positivity No, I appreciate you and I appreciate these thought-provoking questions that you continue to ask He said after watching that horrendous Raven stealers game I'm beginning to think that Lamar doesn't have the mentality needed to push this team to the Super Bowl Yes, the drop passes were on the receivers the slips throughout mishaps the bad old line all that is on them But I don't see him vocalizing frustration or calling his guys higher or getting in their face to be better Can you imagine if the receivers and linemen play like that play that bad with Tom Brady? They would get an earful. I have the same exact criticism of Justin Herbert my home's hurts Rod oh, excuse me. I read it wrong I have the same exact criticism of Justin Herbert period and he said my home's Jalen Hurts and Rogers even tour seem to call their Guys to a high standard some QBs like Lamar are just trying to be cool with everyone keeping your teammates accountable as part of leadership and Motivation not tossing your helmet then moping off the sideline to complain with Tyler Huntley Am I overthinking or is he really too soft to ever get the Ravens to greatness? I want to call him soft. I do know Lamar Jackson. He does not like throwing people under the bus And he as we've seen little clips in here and there what not when Lamar Jack like if a player messes up He'd like tap him on the head right real quick something like that. I'd be like, oh, you got it You're gonna get it Is he the type to get all in your face? All right, you need to tighten up man. Come on Let's get it fix it fix this get this right. Is he that type of person? I don't know I I don't know. I can't say I don't think we've really seen that from out We've seen him get heated before like we seen him get mad at Patrick Rickard when oh What was it that happened? I forgot what happened. We've seen him go off on Ronnie Stanley here and there, but Yeah, I know and I've seen other people say this to they want to see Lamar hold more people Accountable, but is he doing do we know if he's doing it or not? We can only see what we see on TV We can only see what we see on a broadcast. I'm not saying he is doing it I'm not saying he isn't doing it, but I'm saying we just we don't know we don't know So we don't know what type of conversations that Lamar Jackson is having with his receivers in private We don't know what kind of conversations. He's having with his receivers off-camera. We're from what we do So yeah, it seems like they all buddy buddy and whatnot, which is great But I know a lot of Ravens They want to see more rah rah in your face and whatnot because I know Ravens fans are for always and forever spoiled by guys like Ray Lewis and air read and what because oh god, they'll tell you about yourself And they'll tell you about yourself big time now will them all tell you about yourself Now I wonder if he's thinking like man if I tell these guys about myself They already down in the dumps if I tell them about themselves. Is that gonna put them down even more? Or could it end up raising them up? I don't know what he's thinking and again We don't know everything that he's doing only we can only go by what we see So hopefully they are holding each other accountable and whatnot But maybe that's what old there Beckham Junior's for Maybe he was here not only to be a playoff receiving for the Baltimore Ravens But somebody that could help with the leadership aspects of Baltimore as well. Next question came from my guy Flirton whiskey He said what's good, bro? What's your boy Flirton whiskey back again? Hope all is well with you and your though. Everything is great He said kind of in small response to your Bateman video, bro. I do agree people got to take it easy, man He's had solid games all sees it's early But still the man has been through enough already football brings him peace, bro Nobody's complaining about the front office not providing help at O line Tackles are getting abused and newsflash everybody in the playoffs have edge rushes no shade to them But I'm just being real nobody's complaining about McDonald going cover Z with a DB that just came back off Injury against one of the best young doles in the NFL with no help over the top. Oh That was rough And he said a knowing in that situation they had to take that shot Nobody is complaining about the wire receiver coach that had them catching rugby balls That makes zero sense when a rugby ball is close to a pointed basket ball Okay, he had a bad game. So what borough had a bad three games. Nobody was coming for his head Support your team. Don't tear them down, man, but on a lighter note It's something I noticed and I don't know if you notice it too But on all third and longs they do this right with dude where he runs to the middle of the field gets to the first down Throttles down and Lamar bombs it to him He jumps up in triple coverage and always has a good shot at the ball They have been doing that with him since he was a rookie and he's caught more of those than he dropped Why had they not tried that with any of the bigger guys in the preseason like the six four guys? LOL doof has house for sure. Just always wondered that on all I noticed that on the Like when the game went like when they really need some yards They really need a chunk of yards and it's like the end of the second quarter or the end of the half or toward the end of The fourth quarter and they be doing that with doof. They did it in his last game against the Steelers Like doof. They ran to the first that model Lamar threw it to him and do he didn't he didn't really drop I can't call it a drop because he got whacked He was like in the middle of traffic and Lamar got it in there Lamar hit doof in the hands But doof just got whacked so I can't call that a drop But yeah, they'd be doing that in them clutch clutch time situations. All right, he said last but not least I know it's early, but do you think it's time to hit the panic button with these tackles? Oh, oh, yeah We already panicked. We're scared. We were real scared. We were just talking about it earlier As I said before I'm often supporting our players, but I'm just being real I've watched him get blown by while blocking seven against a four-man rush That's cause for panic, bro. Every time the game is on the line We have one second to pass and Lamar is getting hit just me personally We have to make some changes and quick because this isn't gonna fly come playoff time as we've seen before It's cool having one of the most electric players in the NFL quarterback, but if he can't be a quarterback, it's all pointless That's just me. What do you think? Oh, no, I think every Ravens fan would agree with you It's been scary at the tackle position. We talked about Ronnie Stanley. There's such a big investment there But he's been struggling a lot in my opinion and clutch time I mean they've been in moments like both tackles and whether it's Morgan Moses or Pat McCarrie Whoever it might be Daniel Fireley where they just get blown by like blown by like Like what they don't even put up a fight against these defensive ends and these so many defensive ends are amazing I get that but still it's it's been rough So with Lamar with your quarterback if he ain't got no time Then that kid ruined the play before it even gets started not too early to feel like next question came from my guy Rodeo, he said what's up my guy ain't seen one in a minute, but you know, I'm tuned and appreciate you Man, he said man. Oh, man. It's a ton of ball to play, but this feels too familiar I know it's extremely early. However, this is still the same old Ravens. Shout out to Eric Guero He said the same Ravens that take you as high as Antonio Brown just to let you down the same Ravens that play down to weaker opponents Yeah, that's them for sure the same Ravens that beat themselves Gotta agree with you there. Now the same Ravens that can't take that next step You can make an extremely great argument that we should be 5 and 0 You could you could easily make the easily make that argument But they're not and he said and the best team in the AFC and our two losses We didn't lose to our opponents. We lost to ourselves and look I'm all forgiving the opponent's credit Y'all know that I do that all day because they deserve credit Yeah, shout out to the coach and shout out to the Steelers because they took care of business But Ravens made it so easy for them Ravens made it easy Ravens like oh, we don't want to win this game He had taken take it But anyway, he said it's extremely sad but not surprising to win one to lose one is mediocre I truly believe five games in that we are an average team right now despite an above average record I agree. I'll take one step forward to then take a step or two back as a definition of the Baltimore Ravens right now When will we be a truly dominant team? That's what we are waiting for. We are waiting for that Ravens have a thing where they talk about they love winning ugly. I appreciate it because my guy Jose and Brody brought this up Jose and Brody from lunch break hot take But they talk about how John Harbaugh always talks about they love winning ugly It's not pretty but it's the Ravens something like that But it's like hold up you you got a team and you should be blowing a lot of teams out You should Ravens are underachieving right now. They've been underachieving for a while But with the talent that they got who they are they should be a much better football team now again It's still early. It's only after week five. We're going in a week six But Raven should be doing a whole lot better than they have been so hopefully they get there soon He said not saying we should win all 17 about the teams that you should be you have to we cannot continue to play down Two week opponents. This is not all coaching. This is not just players. This is an entire franchise I can't get excited if we blow out Tennessee just to play down to the next opponent or the following I do fear the potential of a typical Raven season where we win a good amount of games lose a handful to the teams We should beat squeaking to the playoffs to make no noise and make week one mistakes The only thing I'm not sure of is who will be to bling until we dominate teams who are weaker show consistency and make noise In the playoffs this will continue to feel like a national football loop that we continue to watch for the highs and lows of the Baltimore Ravens hashtag, please don't let this be another year of the same thing now What would you say as long as the Baltimore Ravens have been going through this this this sort of loop this sort of cycle What would you say is the one thing that has not changed?
