 You too team keep it clean. What's going on is Engraven here with another video and in this video I'm here to share my post game thoughts from the final preseason game We watched last night between the Ravens and the Washington football team and just to jump straight into it Lamar Jackson made his preseason debut. He looked good. He looked smooth He looked accurate. He threw outside the numbers like everybody says he can't do But Lamar Jackson went out there did his thing for a beautiful deep pass beautiful beautiful beautiful deep pass to To Devin Duvenay that was dropped He also threw a really nice pass to mark Andrews and it was just oh man It was nice to see now Lamar It seemed as if he was the Lamar Jackson from week one and week two of last year against the Browns and the Texans Because you would see he had some lanes to take off, but he was like nope not taking off Nope, I save all that for the regular season. I ain't doing it right now Even though that pocket was breaking down because that offensive line Whoo, but it's all good now one thing with the offensive line They the run blocking again It continues to improve every week because they continue to add us another starter to the offensive line every week This week they added Ronnie Stanley because they had what looks like I think is gonna be the starting lineup because you had Ronnie Stanley and you had Ben Powers at left guard. That's been the the biggest battle in the offseason on the offensive line Has been who's gonna be the left guard? So you would think especially because they put Lamar Jackson behind that offensive line You have to think that those are gonna be your starters Ronnie Stanley Ben Powers Bradley Bozeman Kevin Zitler and Alejandro Villanueva. So I Think that's a start in the offensive line because you put your starting quarterback And you're starting running back behind all those guys, but hey, we'll see anyway with Lamar Jackson Yeah, he he looked good. He looked good in the short sample size that we got to see from him And it was unfortunate because the drive it ended well It was obviously way more unfortunate with the JK Dobbins part But that that drive ended with the Verity miss field goal. So his stock went down I think it may be content turning into a conditional draft pick trade form Well, maybe teams may just like wait it out because they know the Ravens aren't gonna keep him anyway So I don't think a team now. I don't think a team is gonna be in a rush to sign I mean to trade for Jake Verity, but hey, we'll see cuz EDC is EDC So he may find some way somehow to get something. So we'll just hold out. Hope for it But back to the drive and JK Dobbins now I'm recording this video is Sunday at 826 a.m So we haven't heard the official word on JK Dobbins yet So just know that when you see this video, it's being done before we found out what happened to JK But we should find that out any any time now any time now So that's it's unfortunate sucks And I know it's been a lot of people days. Oh man the Raven should have never been playing JK anyway No, it's a third preseason game. They were playing the starters for one drive like they've been doing for Offense and defense for a lot of guys. They played him out there one drive. Okay, you're done and that's it So I'm not one of those people. Oh man, they shouldn't play the starters. No things happen. It sucks It's unfortunate. It was terrible, but it happens. I don't think we can we should look back Oh man Raven should have never played those. No It's fine So hopefully JK hopefully he won't be out too long I'm thinking like a month may be a month in change, but we just got to see what happens The the wide receivers just to go position by position The wide receivers again Devon Duvenay He dropped a perfectly thrown deep pass from the mall last night And it was just it was unfortunate because that thing was beautiful But he just he dropped it Some of the other virus he was Benjamin Victor. He had a good game caught him a touchdown I shout out to Tyler Huntley and I guess we can kind of transition from Lamar to Tyler Huntley since Everything after that first drive was Tyler Huntley. He was out there for the entire the entire game pretty much And he did his thing. He looked more and more comfortable The decision-making was on point. He did not throw any almost interceptions either. He did not throw any So that was a beautiful thing to see. I know some people been like, oh, well Tyler Huntley He's just playing against backups. How do you expect him to look? Well, again, I say to that that Hello, Tyler Huntley if he wasn't looking good against those backups, then we'd be having another conversation And like my guy Thomas Morgan said last night those backups. They are still in FL players So yes, they are part of the 1% in the world That makes it that far So Tyler Huntley happy for him. He went out there through four touchdowns Even had the Russian touchdown. So he had him a Lamar game Pro Shae even said last night He was like, man, if you put a number eight on the back of Huntley's Jersey, he said you wouldn't even be able to tell the difference You and in a lot of cases you wouldn't with their demeanor the attitude that they are twins Twins if Tyler Huntley even put the helping up a little bit and show the braids They still twins now Lamar ain't got to be it. So they ain't twins right there But just the way that they carry themselves on the field, especially when they get control and they start like moving. Oh, yeah They can they could be on fire Now they're throwing motion is a little different But either way man, they they both go out there and they have fun with it So Tyler Huntley last night One of his touchdowns was to Benjamin Victor Benjamin Victor He did this thing last night if I think Benjamin Victor makes this team if Ravens keeps seven receivers If they don't keep seven, he doesn't make it if they do keep seven He's the seventh one because the other six are locks. You got again Bateman Hollywood Watkins DuVernay Pro Shae and Tyler Wallace. Those are your locks to me And then that seven spot is up for grabs right now. Miles Boykin is looking like injured reserve Deion Kane I think he's he's gone I think last night and it was a tough road for him because he had done some things in practice and whatnot and training camp and all That but then he got injured so he was out for so long. So last night was his only shot and He just those two drops that he had both deep passes to maybe they I It's in this tough because the op is all about opportunity I was gonna say maybe they should have just try to get him involved in a short passing game a little bit get that confidence up But when you have limited amount of chances, it's tough man It's tough because everything you do gets blown up that much more when your chances are so few So the fact that he dropped both of those too deep Excuse me both of those two deep passes. I think that that's still this fate man I think that'll be a wrap for him On the roster practice squad maybe but I think that that'd be it James crochet James crochet My god first off shout out to Tyler hunt me for that beautiful throw And the pump fake first and then the way he threw it was just so effortless man It looked like it was just look too easy for him on that pass But anyway, threw it up and that's the James crochet that we had heard about so much That's the James crochet that when you pull up his highlights from college from what SMU? I think that's the crochet that we know small guy short guy short receiver But plays big he plays a lot bigger than he is the 50-50 ball That's him all day and that's exactly what that was he got it and he looked at that receiver now James crochet was looking up at that receiver telling him to get big Yeah, I don't know how you could tell somebody to get big if you smaller than them But James crochet did it and I wasn't mad at it. We we loved it Love that scene that attitude out of James crochet, but we had never seen that before well because last year he wasn't involved at all On offense So this year we'll see we'll see how things go But that was really nice because we had been hearing about James crochet. Oh training camp. He's killing it. He's doing this He's doing that James crochet is catching everything but then when it came to being on the field It's like we hadn't really seen anything So to see him do that Beautiful and then tylen wilder somebody who we hadn't been hearing anything about during training camp And then the first preseason game he has the uh, the the the muff punt um, and then the second preseason game he He drops a touchdown or maybe the defender knocked it out either way He missed an opportunity on that but in the second preseason game He did have those two catches and one he got a lot of yak on it So that was a nice confidence boost but for him to get his first touchdown That was nice for him heading into the season So tylen wilders, um, I was very very happy for him With that that was a beautiful thing um, another touchdown went to titan It's so nice to talk about all these touchdowns man I love it man for another touchdown went to tighten eric tomlinson And tyler huntley, he ran to his right through across his body to his left Pass was perfect accurate all that good stuff touchdown eric tomlinson Tomlinson is somebody who I think the ravens could uh release initially Um, but then I think they could end up placing nick boy or nick boil right now. He was on pup So They might not even place it because in order to be placed on ir I believe he would have to um Get off the physically unable to perform this so he had to pass the physical And then they carry him on the roster on ir but right now he hasn't passed his physical yet So it may be pup for him. So he wouldn't count on the active roster yet. So eric tomlinson He right now is looking like he's gonna make the roster in my eyes initially Um, what something else that they could do they could release eric tomlinson If they want to just clear that roster spot and they could bring him back After week two because if they bring him back week one Uh, then his salary for the entire year will be guaranteed But if they bring him back after week one and week two then none of his salary, uh, it wouldn't be guaranteed He will be a week to week guy So I could see the ravens doing that josh oliver who had a quiet game last night. He's gonna make the team Um, so you could have you could go into week one with mark andrews and josh oliver a little bit risky But with you having all those receivers and they could keep it in that case they could keep seven But it's just so much tricky stuff that could go on with this roster And we're gonna try to do a roster prediction video when we get a chance. I don't know when that will be Because I know things are gonna be crazy busy ravens could start releasing people they could start it today Because they got to get from 80 to 53 by Tuesday at 4 p.m So it is going to be very busy. Make sure you have your notifications turned on because this This could get pretty wild. It will be pretty wild It's gonna be a lot of moves happening. Uh, so y'all just stay ready. Stay ready. Say you ain't got to get ready Um, so we'll see what happens with eric thompson in the uh and the tight ends Um, like I said josh oliver quiet quiet game tony paul john Um, haven't hadn't seen anything from him since that first pre-season game I think he caught like a pass or something did he catch it? I forget, but he's been super super quiet He hasn't even really been out there too much. Um Now we can transition to the uh the full backs pat ricard was out there for a little bit uh, but ben mason Ben mason, he got a little more uh, carries than expected Um, but he came out there and and he was a little bruiser. I still think he's a ir stash Um, but he came out there and did his thing because I just do not see them carrying two full backs on the roster at all I don't um So But to the running backs now The running backs, of course, we talked about jk and he looked good before the injury that because I know a lot of people Was like concerned about jk. Oh since he hadn't really done anything in pre-season. Yeah, I'm like, hold up. It's pre-season He'll be fine. He ain't had no pre-season last year. Look how he did so jk would be fine But um besides jk and the injury, of course Uh tyson williams lock lock He is a lock and I think depending on the severity of the injury to jk that um, McCrary he could be another guy that could make the roster because of whatever's gonna happen with jk. Dobbins We'll just have to see um, but tyson williams That dude he is he is on the roster Now with McCrary if he makes the roster seeming like with jk if and when he makes the roster Only thing I don't like about McCrary. We got to change that number You you will not be wearing number 18 as a running back for the ravens. No We got to get rid of that 18 man. I know they they showed on numbers Especially in the 20s and stuff and even in the 30s But we we're gonna find you a number and you're gonna be good to go after that But that 18 that gotta go my friend that has got to go. We love you, but we don't love the 18 I don't know running but anyway, um out there looking like a fast punter or something uh, but McCrary he had to take over the majority of this game Uh, because after jk dobbins went down. They were like look they were like tyson williams We know that you made the roster so Come on. You you're gonna chill for the rest of the night. They gave him a couple more carries and that was it That was it Um, so it was the McCrary show for the rest of the night and I love love love like this guy like It just made me so happy and excited and just like man I I I appreciated so much his decision making This guy makes such smart cuts He has very very good vision and he knows how to make the most of his opportunities There was some plays where he did get tackled in the backfield He had absolutely no block and no lane on nothing But there was some there were also some plays where he could have lost like two yards He could have been no game, but he made a couple of cuts like And he ended up turning nothing into something and he did that throughout the entire night, man I this guy's got vision, man. He's got vision I I loved it, man, and I was thinking man. Imagine him go behind a starting offensive line Oh boy, I just it it was nice to see me. So shout out to McCrary Um, whether it's with the ravens whether this was somebody else he'll get an opportunity for sure Raven's gonna figure this thing out though again everything Uh depends on jk dobbins who again we we still waiting on it still still waiting on it but anyway Those were the running backs And yeah, I guess that's all of the offense shout out to greg roman I know a lot of people like man, that must have been hollywood out there calling in plays because they kept taking deep shots But the offense I did love it because with lamar and his limited time But with Tyler holly like the whole time they were throwing that ball down the field They were throwing that ball down the field. They were taking their shots consistently And we loved it. We loved it Because yeah, you everything ain't a deep pass. We know that sometimes you got to work your way up to it You got to build up to it. But the way that they were taking their shots last night. Yes Good good good So it was a nice nice momentum going into the regular season With how they operated last night and did their thing So it was nice to see Special teams verity like we said to verity stock probably went down a little bit Ain't nobody gonna be in a rush to trade for verity. Um, so let's see what happens with him He did kick ampunt. So it seemed like raven's trying to give verity the uh, the care vedvik Uh treatment to where they show like hey, he can do multiple things that makes his value go up So we'll see what happens with him um And he did have the extra point blocked now see that's tough because I don't know if the the ball was too low if he kicked it too low to try to get more Um to make it go farther. Uh, I don't know. Maybe it's just a good play by their special teams unit Maybe it was a bit of both. I don't know but um That's unfortunate for kickers when their kicks are blocked because who do you put the blame on? Uh, it's very tough because you could put it on the blockers up front that offensive line Uh, or do you put it on whatever? But yeah, I don't think anybody's gonna be in a rush to trade for jake verity now But we'll see again. You never know Uh punt return tylen wallis to me. He did look uncomfortable there. He was very indecisive. Um, but again, he's a rookie He's a rookie That's what the preseason for tried out Uh pro shea, you know pro shea is comfortable back there. He was there for the majority of last year till duvane took over um He's always gonna catch the catch the ball back there, but he's not gonna get us no punt return for a touch now He's not gonna get us big yards on a punt return Unless the blocking was better than perfect because he doesn't have that speed like that uh devon duvane Him too, we know what he can do as a punt returner My preference would be to have devon duvane back there But I think devon duvane will be more involved on offense than pro shea will be so I think they'll keep pro shea back there But we'll see because me I was saying that last night in the stream I would rather somebody even though devon devon duvane his hands. They solid Tyler and wireless too But I would rather somebody be back there who may be a little more have a little more risk of possibly fumbling the ball or something I would rather have somebody that's explosive back there Uh rather than just a safe guy who's not going to really get many yards at punt return So I would rather that chance to have a punt return pop off for a touchdown and so because it reminds me of jacobi jones jacobi jones has some punts that he drops from kickoffs that he dropped So and sometimes they result in in bad plays where jacobi. I forget which game it was that 2012 year jacobi jones, they they kicked it off to oh playoff game against the broncos Look at that. So when everything on the line jacobi dropped one But he certainly made up for that game. I'll tell you that but anyway Uh, the kickoff jacobi jones dropped it and it ends on like bobbled it and then he ran out of then I think he got to like the the five or seven yard line So those things happen, but again jacobi jones, he was a huge reason for all the raving success that season He got kickoff returns against the raiders Did he get no not the raiders against the cowboys? I think I think the raiders too Uh, yeah the raiders the the the stealers the um And of course, obviously in the superbowl, um, he just he's he was doing this thing all year and I know I'm I'm missing some Um, so shout out to jacobi jones, too But I would that's that's my point I would rather somebody that has that potential back there as a punt return and kick return Rather than somebody who's just gonna be safe. That's why I had really like y'all remember janarian grant I want to say that was 2015. No. No, that was 2018 I don't remember what year. No, it was 2018. Yeah, because I think it was lemaw's first game Yeah, I think yeah, I think he was undrafted free agent and he came in lemaw's rookie Yeah, I think y'all let me know if I'm wrong though, but janarian grand that was him this dude shifty He'd make anybody miss but he had fumbling problems and then the first game of the season in 2018 verse the bills I believe it was raining like crazy and he dropped a couple of them and then ravens ended up cutting That was a wrap and I never heard from him again Never heard from him again in the nfl. I just realized that wow, that's crazy nfl is really not for long That's why when when people be saying oh this player sucks that player sucks that player is terrible. No, they're not Like for people that say that you got to realize what it takes to make it to the nfl man It's one percent of people. That's it one percent of people make it And for you to say oh this guy sucks. He tell is this it. No, they don't Yeah, they may have had a bad day. They may have had an off day off player whatnot, but they are not terrible players So anyway, um on defense now defense I told y'all last night. I I really I didn't really pay attention to people much on defense like that I did a lot of focusing on offense as you could tell but Defense no, not really. I did see a way to get some nice pressure I know people will tell me all night. Oh man, they hold in a way. They hold them hold them hold them So that's a good thing because that means he scares them He put that pressure on them to where they got to hold them So that's a good thing shout out to him didn't see Bowser that much think he was thinking about his after party last night um dylan haze same stuff Same stuff just continues to do his thing that little dip move man. That's his thing That's his finishing move that dip So shout out to dylan haze. I'm man. I'm just happy man. I'm excited for this pass rush Somebody said Justin Houston was out there early. I didn't see him, but I don't know Um cornerbacks Marcus Peters was out there for a tiny amount of time. Anthony Avery was I think too Uh, but last night lot of Nigel warrior He he's making a roster Nigel warrior. He already made a roster Uh, he made some really nice tackles man. That was my favorite part about Nigel warrior last night was his tackles I didn't see too much of our day is washington. I did see Brandon Stevens. He made a couple of plays He almost got a pick. Um Who else chris westerie he got bombed on one place like he gives up a big a big catch per game But for the most part he he does his thing. Um, so I think he'll make the roster as well. Um Who else who else who else geno stone was out there? um And I yeah, I did see him involved did see the 26th round of ball a little bit Uh, patrick queen. He was out there for a little bit. Malik Harrison was out there for a little bit longer But not too long. Um, but yeah defense. I'm sorry. I just A lot of defense. I just I did not really pay attention to like that in detail, but I see that uh They didn't have any turnovers last night and just something that we talked about they didn't they didn't have any turnovers last night But they only gave up three points They only gave up three points now remember that that new oilers game that new oilers game against the saints They had like 50 turnovers man. I think they had what like six Six turnovers, but the game came down to the wire. They gave up on points Now the past two games the turnovers been way down But the points They've been way up. What did then the panthers get three? I think the panthers got three Uh, and then watching football team. They got three So, yeah, so defense been holding it down I I will take it all day now. We love our interceptions. We love our interceptions. We love our fumbles. We love all of that stuff But I will take them not having many turnovers all day If they only given up a tiny amount of points Because that just makes it so much easier for everybody Like if the ravens would have scored these past two games combined if the ravens would have scored 14 points They would they would have won He would have won If they scored 14 points, they would have won So it's That's beautiful, man. I know it's preseason, but still it's preseason Still a game and again that the 20 game win streak that is beautiful, man That's beautiful. Some people are going. Oh, it's just preseason man. It doesn't mean anything Now why it doesn't it doesn't count count like john hobo got his name in there in the history books now though I mean he already been in there, but he got his name in the history books or something else now too but it certainly counts uh because That when you think about it like a preseason game You you've won to win 20 in a row We talked about this last night like one in two in a row. Okay, cool When about three or four in a row? All right, cool When in five six, it's like hold up. All right. What are we doing here? What are we doing? Seven and nine. It's like wait wait wait. Oh We got we got something going here. We got something going. We've been killing this thing for the past couple years Then from nine to like 1112. It's like whoa, we Oh, hold up. We we could we could make history And then from 12 to 15, it's like, oh, yo, we we got it. We got it. They start swag surfing together And then it goes from from 15 to 16 to 17 and it's like We right there. Yo boys. We're right there. And then 18 is like, oh the 19 It's like whoa, we we tied the record in 20. Let's go. They did that like that's crazy And you're playing these games With backups most of the time And you're still winning. You're still winning So that is a great feat man. That's a great record And that that lets you know something that They prepare They prepare for the preseason And they don't play no games in preseason now. Like I said, we need to do Once ravens got to make the playoffs first, but come playoffs They need we need to tell them. Hey these playoff games. These are really preseason games Y'all we need to convince hardball on them that the playoffs are preseason games Super bowlers us if we can do that teamkeeper clean, let's do that If ravens make the playoffs, which we expect them to but if ravens make the playoffs We got to all convince hardball on them to hey, this is a preseason game now We got to find a way to do we're gonna have to get creative, but we're gonna make it happen But yeah, that's that's that man ravens did it. So they go into the season into this season again I mean they've been going into season since what 2016 with this undefeated preseason schedule And 2016 no, they didn't make the playoffs 2017. Nope. They didn't make the playoffs 2018 they weren't supposed to make the playoffs But then insert limar and then 18 19 and 20 they made the playoffs So the preseason streak is not really indicative of anything but It's still a beautiful thing man So shout out to hardball on them shout out to because this has not just been with greg roman This has not just been with wink. This has been with Dean peas. This has been with marty morning wig. This has been so this it's been with some old guys too Uh, this has been with flacco. This has been uh with I think bren renner um, this has been with uh Who else who was some of the other quarterbacks that were there? Obviously limar, um Hmm and obviously now tyler huntley too, but it's been a lot of people that have contributed to this That a lot of times we forget that it's been a lot of people because a lot of players obviously every year They contribute to this So this is uh really good. So again, yeah, shout out to hardball Y'all know, I don't always agree with everything that he does. Um But you you gotta gotta give credit where credit is due you have to have to no matter how much you like somebody No, how much you dislike somebody Uh, you got to give credit where credit is due and hardball has had these guys ready for that preseason Now let's flip it to postseason. Uh, but anyway team keep it clean. I appreciate y'all. I love y'all Again, just a quick reminder This video is being is is being recorded before we got official news on the jk dobbing situation Um, maybe by the time you see this video, we'll have already gotten it So we'll talk about that in a separate video when we get that or maybe you'll see this video before either way I will keep y'all updated and again, uh, like I did say too. I am Gonna try I don't know when it will happen because things are gonna be moving like crazy But I will try To do a uh 53 man roster prediction video when we get a chance to maybe All right, I ain't gonna talk too much because I I got some plans for it if we are able to do it But I ain't gonna talk too much. I just make it happen when we make it happen Anyway, I love y'all team. Keep it clean. I appreciate y'all team. Keep it clean Uh, and hopefully like jk dobbins is but not for too long We out
