 Glad it's just a rumor first question came from my boy Kevin B He said hello fam I hope all is well and then everybody's in good health good to hear that Lamar Jackson is willing to stick around now With a 17 game season. Do you think that it's time to up our roster? We're going to need at least 58 to 60 on the roster and a few extra on the practice squad more to come But just had to get this one out peace and blessings to you and your fam and everyone out there stay safe Appreciate it Kevin. So as far as the Ravens meeting the minimum requirements for players on the active roster and players on the practice squad Yes, completely agreed. I mean, that's something that they have to do regardless But as far as upping their roster, especially with it being a 17 game season And just again they in the AFC and the AFC is stacked. It is loaded It is going crazy right now. That's probably why time break decided to come back. But anyway Bishari a quote that was very interesting to me from Bishari It kind of tied in to what you're talking about as far as upping the roster Jeff's rebate. She says Bishari when it came to the six straight losses to end the season He said I was good emotionally with it because I kind of didn't think we necessarily even deserve to be eight in three Now that part right there. Let's just finish. He said I thought we had gotten very fortunate I didn't have real hopes real high hopes of a playoff run when you're that depleted So he is speaking of course about the injuries mixed with the Ravens being eight in three So they were hurt a lot of guys were out And he just he didn't feel like this team even deserved to be where they were at Now it's funny because if we go back if you look back I remember plenty of videos where the Ravens were obviously winning They had a winning record, but I will continuously say like it's not good enough It is not good enough the way that they're winning people be like man, you're just complaining man The Ravens are winning you still complaining man. I said no, it's not that you just got to look at the context Yes, a winning a win is the most important thing at the end of the day But if you you got to look at the way that they're winning and all these late game heroics They're fun and they're nice But can you really keep that up an entire season? It's possible But you want to have more quality wins you want to have more wins Of course, you want to show and prove to yourself improve to your team improve to everybody Hey, we can win from being down. We can have a lead and maintain it We can be in a back-and-forth battle and keep up We can do that But when so many of your games are come from behind come from behind come from behind come from behind What are you doing behind so much? I But this the the part about eight in three him saying that I didn't think we necessarily deserve to be eight in three I thought we had gotten very fortunate that part screamed to me He wants more quality wins Quality points and quality players And this is something that we've been echoing on here for a very long time now And what quality players do? They give especially on offense. They give you quality points and they help you get quality wins Playmakers are essential They are essential on both sides of the ball. We're not just talking offense. We're talking defense as well They are essential for you to have success in today's NFL So I really hope that the Ravens and it's still early in the offseason Again, you see what everybody else in the AFC is doing and I keep hearing people say oh Ravens coach of this and coach of that We built around defense. They need to stick with defense Why should we copy what everybody else is doing if we are built on the run and we are better on playing good defense Because this is the NFL where it's all about offense, man It's all about offense You got to be able to put up points and a lot of them a lot of them And I keep saying some people say a well look at the Rams and Bengals game the Rams defense. They won that game They have some playmakers on defense and they did they not score any points on offense Did they not if they didn't know I'm clearly mistaken But you can see that the two teams that even made it to the Super Bowl It's often those guys can score points and they had played the big the Bengals have some lockdown defense No, but they had playmakers on defense. Did the Rams have some lockdown defense? No, but they had playmakers on defense You don't have to have some shut down locked down You ain't score no points type of defense But you got to have Playmakers but as far as offense you gots to be able to score that ball the NFL makes rules So they help you score the NFL helps offenses move down the field They put in so many rules like you look like even a kickoff rule Remember when a touch back used to go to the 20. Oh, it seemed like it's so long ago now it comes out to the 25 They give you five more yards five more yards. They're like, hey here offenses. We want points. Take them take them The rules benefit the offenses so much Ravens gots to take Advantage team keep it clean. We got some fire questions to get into on this episode of questions from subs. Let's do it They keep it clean welcome to another episode of question from subs where you can ask me any question you want and we answer it in The video like this now if you want to be part of it You can send me an email to team keep it clean at gmail.com or for the patrons shout out to the team keep it clean patrons You can send it directly on patreon if you want to become a team keep it clean patron You can go to patreon.com slash engraving vids team keep it clean like I said We got some great questions as we always do. Let's get a little bit greedy with it Next question came from my guy mark G. He said, can I be a little greedy? What's going on in gravy and hope this question isn't too long cuz it has two parts first It's funny. You mentioned Bobby Wagner watch I'm refreshing my YouTube acting like I'm not waiting for you to drop the next Bobby Wagner move So my question is would I be greedy to ask for the honey badger as well? Oh, you know, I've been seeing some people say that. Um, I don't it would be greedy, but you know, I'm greedy You know I'm greedy all day, but I just Man because that if if they did that I mean, I know they're not but if they did that What would you do with Chuck? Have him around a box more and have honey badger markets Williams back there. But I just think about the money part I don't I mean it is defense, but at the same time, I wouldn't see them investing all that money into two safeties I just wouldn't see it now. We were in the Twitter space yesterday and some people were talking about what if Kyle Hamilton dropped What if he dropped a 14? What would the Ravens do? Would they take him with it? Would you pass up on Kyle Hamilton or would you like trade back or something like that? So that's another scenario to think about but I just let's just keep on going with the question He said I think it would go crazy depending on the package and schemes But also he would want to be on the field for a time and get paid started money Besides, I think the Steelers Saints and Raiders are on it. Now. I wouldn't mind bringing back the Joker to Sean Elliott either What's more realistic? Well, so definitely bringing back the Sean Elliott, but what would his role be? That would be such a big question. What would the Sean Elliott's role be because Marcus Williams? You ain't paying him to be on the bench Chuck Clark, he's gonna be a starter Then you got Brandon Stevens who you know, they love they love Brandon Stevens and they showed that But as far as the Sean Elliott like they could bring him back Having a couple packages here and there, but he would primarily be a role player What he want that is he gonna possibly get an opportunity from somewhere else to have an increased role Then he would with the Ravens if he came back Possibly, but yeah, if they I think it'll be more realistic if they brought the Sean Elliott back And did I say the Sean Watson a little bit ago? I feel like I said the Sean Watson But I meant the Sean Elliott if I did say it anyway Second part of the question. He said you're picking a wire receiver in this draft Would you snag George Pickens? Jussie Drake London or John Dodson? See that that that jizzie gets catching on now. Let's catch it on or use this approach sign a trade for a wide receiver Who would you seek and and draft Jameson Winston from Bama and stash him? Hey if he's ready ain't no stash going on in my book If I had to pick one of those mmm There's Christian Watson to can't forget about him But if I had to pick one of these three, I'll probably go Pickens I would probably go Pickens because he's like the the the Marcus Peters on offense though. He's nasty, man That boy is nasty, man, and he got attitude man He got that dog man, and that's what we need more of and we especially on offense Like we need more that dog and what an attitude on offense. Don't stop being so friendly. So hey, how's it going? No, no, no They didn't they need to get more nasty, man So I will go with George Pickens out of those. He said hope this isn't too long Lol and I wanted to give you a shout out because I watched your live stream at work And I heard it while I was cooking and it meant a lot to me I was telling my boys and my girl, please keep up your grind and I value your opinion more than ESPN and NFL reporters You and the fam stay blessed hashtag team keep it clean. Yeah, I appreciate that a lot man. Thank you for this man This was a fun question. I appreciate that shout out to bad thoughts next question came from my guy David He said good morning and gravy and hope you all are doing well I had a bad thought last night and wanted to get your thoughts on them Do you think Lamar might get the Tim Tebow treatment from the Ravens in the NFL? No, no, he has done a million things more than Tim Tebow even thought of doing in the NFL So no, but let's see what you're talking about. He said they both went against the norm of the NFL quarterback They both have great legs and really good arms Tim Tim Tebow had a really great on that team team the same Tim Tebow. He watched Anyway, he said and they proved every hater wrong about injuries They both have proved haters wrong about not being able to come back and when Tebow almost became known as the new comeback kid I remember all of them fourth court because he would be so sorry in the first second third and some of the fourth Quarter then all of a sudden they come back They both are media and fan darlings They both have for some reason been for lack of a better word shunned by the NFL for being outspoken and very successful I don't really think I don't think Lamar is outspoken. He's a pretty quiet about his stuff The tall nail gets the hammer kind of thing. I see a future where Lamar is forced to play for a team who has no idea how to use him and Be delegated to as a footnote in the NFL history rather than the once-in-a-lifetime talent He is I really hope I'm wrong But as you say anything is possible until it is impossible anymore Thank you for taking the time and apologies for the book. God bless you and your famine and Ravens appreciate that David No, I don't think I think Lamar get the furthest thing from Tim to Tebow treatment Tim Tebow was passed around He was a Bronco and he was a jet And he just kind of like fizzled out did he go to the feel like he went somewhere else too But he kind of fizzled out and nobody really took him seriously like that Lamar he like no, there's no way that he gets passed around like that and Tim Tebow was never in talks with anybody As far as being paid a bunch of money Being possibly becoming the highest paid quarterback in the future or one of the highest paid quarterbacks in the future Tebow was never in that talk So that right there alone and even before the contract talk Before well everything that Lamar has done Tebow like no, so he ain't got to worry about Lamar get no Tebow treatment. Next question came from a guy Sergio He said a engraving is my first time asking a question and we'll love your feedback with all the moves that have happened in the offseason Sure feels like the news about Greg Roman staying as OC slapped us harder Man said it slapped us harder than will Smith smack Chris Rock. It's no secret The Ravens don't know how to properly use the players they have that's especially true about our Greg Roman led offense We all know guys like Bateman crochet and duvenate are under utilized I like for you and all the team keeping clean to share some scenarios that you think could possibly play out with our offensive coordinator situation Would you go get the boot mid-season? I think we'd all like to see a creative offensive coordinator at the helm of this talented offense Whether it's an in-house guy or an outside hire the homie Malik and I've been watching you for a while now We love the quality and consistently of your content. Maybe one day you'll be interviewing players themselves many blessings surge appreciate that surge Whoo Giro I I do think that this is his last year That's whether the Ravens finish out the season with him or even if they don't And I'm not here to go on some Giro tirade or ran or anything like that But I just think with the hires that they've made over the past year and change it spells the end for Giro Again when we talked about this a lot As far as them bringing in a team Martin and Keith Williams, they brought in coaches that They are good at what Giro was bad at if you were a good offensive coordinator and your team felt like you were a good offensive coordinator Why would they bring in guys to help you where you're weak? You shouldn't really have big areas of weaknesses like that Even if you don't you don't do something the best even if something is maybe not your strongest characteristic They brought in guys to help you So I just I think it already spells the beginning of the end for Greg Roman and then with them hiring Kerry Dixon from Georgia Tech as an assistant QB coach I also think that and somebody brought it up in the comment section. I was like, oh, okay I didn't even realize that but yeah, that could probably also put James Urban on notice Because they may I think the rate I hope I hope the Ravens I can't say I think but I hope that this really indicates that the Ravens They feel like they have not gotten the most out of Lamar Jackson And they really want to get the most and really want to have him Just be the best quarterback that he can possibly be I do feel like Greg Roman has done He was a good introductory offensive coordinator for Lamar Jackson But I feel like it's really time for this Ravens team to take a huge step forward With the offense with Lamar with the passing game. It's time for them to take a huge step forward Because it will take them such a long way it will take the offense such a long way It will take the team such a long way if they can take a huge step forward now last year. They started to show it They started to let's see if it continues though expression came from the marksman. He said what's up in gravy? I just want to say thank you so much for the incredible videos You make my day and every time when news comes out that can make other fans cry You said that could make other fans cry themselves to sleep you still got that nice smile on your face for you when you announce it Wonder Bobby Wagner news will come out by the time y'all see this video We'll see though. Anyway, it's to the question should the Raven sign JC Treader I don't think the Ravens are gonna sign JC Treader be nice if they did but I don't think they will think Patrick McCary is their dude. Anyway, he said it I know that people are starting to say that Patrick McCary might be the new Raven sinner But then who replaced McCary at God? Well, you got Tyree Phillips. You got Ben Cleveland So you got options in and then if they even say for instance, they even drafted a left tackle What they drafted a left tackle as a Justin Kase got for Ronnie Stanley and Ronnie Stanley's like, oh, hey guys I'm okay. I'm ready and then they could possibly move that left tackle to God. So they got options And he said So either way, we need a powerful offensive line. So why not sign JC Treader for Center and keep McCary where he is? Let me know what you think Where's McCary though? He's a backup So he that's where he was and he'd be a nice depth guy because he's somebody that you could plug and play We have on the offensive line But again, like we mentioned earlier, I think the money talks and the money says like McCary is gonna be the guy Also, do think it was a little bit of smokescreen in there I think they're gonna they trying to sort of throw people off as far as draft as well Because they you know, they're gonna be looking at offensive linemen for all Five positions on the offensive line, especially left tackle and probably center somebody to compete with Patrick McCary and Tristan Cologne Castillo But I think that if the board doesn't fall how they wanted to I think they would be just fine I would Patrick McCary being their starting center. I just I don't see a world where they sign JC Treader. Is this the year? The next question came from Cynthia. She said isn't this the year we finally find out where the money issue with Earl Thomas is addressed Does he still have money on a table that the Ravens have to pay him does the money affect the cap space? It's been so long since his issue was addressed besides his release Please explain how the Ravens can come out of this with the head above water. Thank you for keeping it clean Appreciate you Cynthia Earl Thomas The only way that the Ravens pay him any more money is if they lose the grievance if they win the grievance nothing happens because they've already They've already removed the um, I think it was like a 10 mil something that was on the cap Well Thomas is not on the cap anymore, but if the Ravens lose Then they would have to that he would account for like 10 mil on the salary cap. So That that's what we're waiting on right now or still waiting has been what has been two years something like that They add that that's the hold up right well not even a hold up, but that's what it is So Earl Thomas is not taking up any cap space anything like that But like I said if the Ravens lose the grievance, they got to pay him 10 mil more I believe and if they win then nothing happens They don't gain any cap space and they don't lose any cap space if they win next question came from my god Alex he said what's going on my god? How you feeling today? I'm feeling pretty good. Thank you He said I myself am feeling like a big dummy after watching your question from subscriber video earlier today and listening to you Respond to my question about Tyus Bowser. I pride myself. Oh his question was um Can we see the the maximum potential of Tyus Bowser with the Ravens? And my response to that was well, maybe we'll see what Mike McDonald, but we'll see what Tyus Bowser's role is It depends on how he comes back from his injury But anyway, he said that I pride myself on being a Ravens superfan And I have been I have been literally since we came on the scene in 96 when I was nine years old I don't usually miss a beat when it comes to anything regarding my team But after your response to my question yesterday my pride as a Ravens fan took a hit I literally don't even know how I didn't need don't even know Tyus got hurt until after watching your video And that hurt my feelings as a fan cuz how am I going to not know one of my favorite players on the team was injured in The last game of the season against our arch rivals. That just sounds like some fair weather fan stuff, and I'm definitely not that I Wouldn't down yourself like that. I don't think it's that big of a deal. You just missed it. Yeah, that's it You missed it. That's it So I don't think we got a you ain't got to overthink it or be overly critical of yourself Just missed it. We all forget trust me I forget a lot of stuff a whole lot So you forgetting that Tyus Bowser had an injury is You ain't got to beat yourself up beat yourself up over that He said it just bothered me that something so significantly total soul significant was totally missed by me in my defense I was just returning from vacation the day of that Pittsburgh game And I was only able to catch bits and pieces of it here and there Obviously one of the parts I miss was the injury, but I'm confused to how I didn't hear about it Some other way after the season was over. That's the mind-boggling part Had I known he got injured my question to you regarding him yesterday would have been a completely different one and had he not got injured We would have been having a totally different conversation regarding him doing that video But regardless we are where we are now as far as his status My question for you is which player or players on the current roster are likely candidates that can replace him for the Start of the season while he's out Dayland Hays and That's it Not Jalen Ferguson they play completely different Jalen Ferguson is more of a defensive end ties Bowser more of an outside linebacker who can put his hands in the dirt, but he can also drop back Jalen Ferguson not dropping back right now so Dayland Hays and That's it. Just dayland Hays Do you think that do you think this will be Jalen Ferguson's time to shine and finally show us what he's made of? So he can secure a spot on the roster in the future. I think this does help him Possibly, but I don't think his roster spot is safe Or if there's somebody else on the team that comes to your mind that will be a better better suited for Bowser's replacement Or this is potential replacement not even on the current roster yet hint hint the NFL draft is almost here Yeah, I think the radios are certainly I'm gonna be looking at the draft to For for guys for depth guys as far as outside linebackers and whatnot. Oh Malik Harrison Malik Harrison That's another one too. Can't believe I forgot about him Malik Harrison is another one So I would say um Dayland Hays and Malik Harrison for sure and the last question on this episode came from my boy. Oh Lou I appreciate you being a patron. He said have you seen the work Lamar Jackson has been putting him to go with the new QB coach We grab a wide receiver pickings from Georgia or Ross from Clemson with cooking the fourth round. What do you think wide open offense? They again with that hire if that hire is gonna implement his say so and implement His history and what he's done recently Then that will point to the Ravens going more spread offense really spreading them out really going to a sort of pick your poison type of offense And if you can do that with quality guys, not just quantity but quality guys Like imagine that imagine a Bateman Hollywood Andrews and the pickings so he didn't mention Justin Ross to Christian Watson or so whoever He still got James crochet and Devin Duvenay as well, but just imagine that and Tyler Wallace too but just imagine that like pick your poison and If Ravens did that that would be a beautiful thing because with a pick your poison offense It does not eliminate the run game It really doesn't oh man, I'm Just First three rounds are receiving it a receiver is happening for sure y'all I don't say I ain't try to warn you We we one month away from the draft man one month less than a month away as a matter of fact But don't say I didn't warn you just come
