 After that game against the Miami Dolphins, so many things became official. One, the Baltimore Ravens have the number one overall seed in the AFC. That cannot be taken away from them whatsoever. No outcomes of any other games can change anything with the Ravens being the number one seed. It's done, it's theirs, and they done a lot this year to get to this spot. There have been a lot of times when the Baltimore Ravens, other stuff would fall in their favor, other games and teams would, they would either lose in their favor or win in their favor. And it'd be like, all right, all Baltimore Ravens got to do to control their own destiny is win this game, win that game, win that game. And they would do it. They would do it just about every time. We've seen in years past where the Baltimore Ravens did not do it. They will come up short. When everything will be handed to them, they'll be like, oh, you know what? No, we don't want it. But this year has been different. These Ravens are so much more mature than they have been in years past. And games like this, they showed it. Team keeping clean. I'm here to share my post game thoughts from the game that we all watch together and we all loved it. I know except a lot of Miami Dolphins fans, but here to share my post game thoughts on the game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Miami Dolphins, where Lamar Jackson, he really solidified. Like it was already solidified him being the MVP this year, but that game just it ended it officially. Lamar Jackson will be your 2023 regular season MVP and it shouldn't stop there. Do we want to see him win a Super Bowl MVP? People would talk about that later. Now, before we get into this video, make sure you subscribe to the channel and I appreciate y'all.

It was looking a little scary at first. This was a game that I had said I thought this was going to be a stressful game. I did think the Baltimore Ravens one up going to win, but I thought they were barely going to win. Boy, was I wrong. I was wrong in both quarterbacks, both Tyler Hunley and Lamar Jackson both had a perfect quarterback rating. But anyway, this game started off on a defense because we were already missing Kyle Hamilton. We were missing Brandon Stevens. And then Mallon Humphrey was in there for a little bit, but then even he went out. Arthur Millet, he went out for a little bit. Darryl Worley, he went out. Michael Pierce went out. So a lot of guys were getting banged up with that. A lot of guys were banged up already, but a lot of guys got banged up too. So we kept missing more and more people. But the way that this game started off, the Baltimore, excuse me, the Miami Dolphins literally walk right down the field with ease against Baltimore Ravens defense with ease. No problem, no issues and score the touchdown. So easy. It looks so easy. I said, oh, okay. All right. So that was the first test. How are they going to respond to that? Lamar Jackson Baltimore Ravens, they responded right away with a touchdown because a little bit of the worry was like, okay, are they going to respond with a field goal? Are they going to respond with a punt? Or are they going to actually finish the job and get a touchdown and tie the game back up? They did it. They responded right away. So that was a good sign. But then very next drive for the Miami Dolphins went right down the field again on the Baltimore Raven, right down the field again. And they got all the way to the goal. And the only reason that they didn't get a touchdown was because Tyree Keele dropped the ball. He dropped it. He dropped it in the end zone. Bobbler didn't end zone. And they didn't get a touchdown from that. So it was like, okay, well, that's where you could say the Dolphins. They beat themselves on that drive because they dropped the ball. Tyree, I mean, excuse me, to a perfect pass to Tyree. He dropped it. So, all right. They get the field goal Baltimore Ravens. They came back and I don't even remember what happened. And I don't remember if they got a touchdown or not. But regardless Ravens, they started stopping the Dolphins. And what I appreciate about this Ravens team is even before halftime because you know how we always hear about halftime adjustments, the Baltimore Ravens, they didn't wait until halftime to start fixing stuff. They didn't wait until halftime to start making adjustments. They did it before halftime because they really started slowing the Dolphins down a lot. One thing I was worried about this game, which was a legitimate worry was a screen game. Can we know dolphins love running screenplays? They love throwing to the flats and then just getting a bunch of yak. Kyle Hamilton is a play that's all over them screens. He is the screen stopper. But we had no Kyle Hamilton. So we were not stopping them screens early. But the Ravens, they got on top of that. The Ravens, they were able to not only get pressure, but get sacks on to attack of a lower and he's somebody that gets the ball out of his hands quick, fast and in a hurry. They were able to stop that. Now Ravens run defense. That part wasn't so pretty. And so I can get an exact figure. I know a chain, they were without most of it. They were without Jalen Wilder, but their offense was still dangerous. And just so I can get an exact number on the rushing off, I know a chain had over a hundred yards. I know he had to for sure because he was running all over the Ravens. They were tossing it to him and handing it off to him. He'd run all over the Baltimore Ravens. But let's see. He had 14 carry for a hundred seven yards average 7.6 yards for Kerry. So you would think, oh man, this dude average 7.6 yards a carry on the Ravens. Oh man, look at the score. Ravens blew them out. Even with him going off getting all those Ravens blew them out. Tyreek Hill, he had six catches for 76 yards for Tyreek Hill to be held to that. That's a win. That's a win because Tyreek Hill got a lot of that early on to a lot of his numbers came early on. But then for a lot of the second half, he was quiet. We hear nothing from Tyreek Hill for a lot of the second half. So right again, the adjustments were made. They took care of business tour. Tool was 22 for 38. So we only missed 16 passes. Not bad 237 yards. Not bad again. Two touchdowns. Not bad, obviously, but two picks and got sag three times. Now one of the picks came with Roquon right before halftime right before the two minute warning. Two in the dolphins. They were like, Hey, no, we're going to get this playoff before two minute warning. We trying to have as much time as possible. Okay, you want to rush it? No problem. Tool snapped the ball through the pass. I believe it was a pass into the Tyreek Hill. Roquon Smith reddit perfectly was all over it. One hand interception. Got it. Got it. And then right after that, I was a little worried because it was fourth down was fourth down and seven. Now I was like, Oh, this sucks. The Ravens are up. They have a good amount of points, but it's fourth and seven. They're not in field goal range, but if you punt here, it would almost feel like that interception was a waste. But I get if they punt here because you don't want to give the dolphins easy field position, but Raven said, no, no, no, no, we're going to go for it. And they went for it on the fourth and seven in Lamar. You found Isaiah likely hit him and stride touchdown. Didn't just get the first down. I got a touchdown too. Before that, Odell Beckham, Jr. had a huge catch down a sideline like right at the two yard line. I think that's why he called it and it looked like a little iffy when it was live. It looked like a catch, but at the same time they were showing a replay. Dolphins challenged it. It looked like, oh, could it be iffy, but then they showed a replay clean catch. Perfect catch. So, okay, to set up Gus Edwards for the touchdown. Set him up for a beautiful touchdown. Easy touchdown. In this game, when the Ravens scored a touchdown right before halftime, we were all thinking, all right, they scored a touchdown before halftime. They get the ball back. They get the ball back after halftime. Hopefully they score again. Hopefully they take it. For instance, get us another touchdown. What do they do? They got another touchdown. Got another touchdown. Shout out to Zay flowers, man. I was happy to see Zay flowers get that touchdown, that long touchdown. Lamar took a neck with him on a deep ball. It was just a beautiful thing to see. Lamar was just on fire this game. On fire, on fire. The man had a literal perfect game. And let's just look at Lamar Jackson number. We know he threw five touchdowns. But Lamar Jackson, he went 18 out of 21, 321 yards, average 15.3 yards for completion and had five touchdowns. He did get sacked once, but that's okay. Shout out to the offensive line. Ravens offensive line in this game. They were pretty good. Like Lamar, again, he did take that one sack. But other than that, even the pressure was minimal. I don't, he didn't have to run for his life. A lot at all. Like he did like last week. He had to run for his life a lot with that. But this game, not too often, not too often Lamar was back there a lot of times just chilling, chilling. I guess dolphins were like, look, we're going to make him pass and they paid for it big time. Big time. A lot of times the dolphins were dropping a lot of people back and Lamar called him up. There will be some times where dolphins were blitzing and Lamar called him up. He called him up big time, man. So shout out to him. Now Gus Edwards, 16 carries for 68 yards. Of course, he got that touchdown. Justice Hill. Oh, this was a big game for Justice Hill. Huge game for Justice Hill. He got the touchdown catch. He got the big kick return. He got some big plays throughout the game, a screen pass that went for a big first. He just kept putting in work from so many different parts of the field from so many different just parts of the game. Justice Hill was like that today. He was all one today. And it made such a big difference because when you look at his carries, he only had three carries for 48 yards. Now that's that's big. He had three carries. His longest carry was 41 yards. So that's obviously where he got the chunk of his yards at, but his impact was everywhere in this game. Lamar Jackson, he had six carries for six carries for 35 yards. So he wasn't doing too much. It was one play where he was showing a little something, but he said, you know what, let me save this for the playoffs. So Lamar Jackson, everything that he's been doing this year, when we see him, he's been holding it back. He's been holding back when it comes to the scrambling that he has not been running full speed very often hardly at all. Maybe he ran. I don't even think he was full speed last week in that 49ers game. It didn't seem like it to me, but hey, I know there was some people that said he was. I don't think he was. But anyway, Lamar Jackson has clearly been holding back this year and now will not play off time yet. Still got next week, but I don't think the starters are going to play next week, but come play off time, let it all out. Let it all out. Now Tyler Huntley. Tyler Huntley, he came in, did a little handoff to Melvin Gordon. He's like, no, no, no, I need more. I need more. And you know what? Tyler Huntley comes in the game. Ravens don't stop throwing the ball. They don't run at what now, but they really try to get first down. They try to get points. They try to keep it going. They don't force the issue now, but they still they say Tyler Huntley, no, go ahead and throw that ball if you want to do your thing. And he did it. Charlie Kohler with his first touchdown reception. So that was nice to see, man. So shout out to them. Zay Flowers. We talked about him. Three catching for 160 yards and of course that touchdown Justice Hill. We talked about him five catch for 64 yards and of course that touchdown Bateman. He had four catches, 54 yards. It was nice that the ball went back to him even after that. That pass where it was like a tiny bit too far but not too far away. Oh man, bad. No, that first deep ball that was rooting. I thought it was a completion, but they said the ball moved the ground, moved the ball. Okay, whatever. And that hurt. Yeah, that hurt bad because I thought like, oh man, that's got to be deflating where Ravens responded. And that had been about some Ravens this year. They've been responding because even in this game there were some times where a lot of people brought up the Miami Dolphins game from last year where Ravens had a big lead and the Dolphins just came right back and won. And in this game, the Ravens had a big lead but they scored more and they scored more and they scored more and they scored more and they scored more and they scored more and they closed it out. They finished the job. They didn't leave it up to chance. They weren't like, oh, okay. Well, we'll just leave it in the defensive. No, the offense said, A, defense. I know y'all banged up right now. I know y'all got a lot of injuries right now, but watch this. We got y'all. Isaiah likely. Isaiah likely who has been just amazing. Ever since Mark Andrews went down. He's great, man. Isaiah, this is the Isaiah like this is the potential that we were hoping to see last year. We saw a little flashes of it here and there, but this year he like leaps and bounds. And obviously it's because of his opportunity. Had Mark Andrews been here, which we hope that he can come back. Isaiah likely would not get this opportunity like that, but that's understood because Mark Andrews is their guy. They're the main tight end. But Isaiah likely getting this opportunity. He's made the most of it and show like, hey, he can play. He can play some ball. And I love how Isaiah likely continues to be no nonsense. Like he doesn't try to do all the little pretty stuff. Oh, let me try to shake this guy. Let me try to make him miss. But like he did a lot of that last year and there ain't necessarily no problem with that. But this year Isaiah likely been like no nonsense. No, let me just run. Get this first down. Let me just go run. Get this touchdown. So and that's exactly what he did on that fourth down play. Um, back to the defense again. Uh, Gino Stone on his pick. Great play. And Roquon looked like he got a little piece of it, but Gino Stone, he got another pick. So it was nice to see him back on the, uh, the statue with an interception again. Um, but yeah, this team, man, this team is special. As we know, all the dolphins, they, they were a good team. But they, again, they track record against good teams. Was not so good this year. Um, they had beat up on the bad teams, but it gets against a good team. They ended up losing against the Eagles, against the Chiefs, uh, against the Bills. Um, not against the Cowboys. When I know they have more too. Well, no dolphins only got four losses. So yeah, Bills, Chiefs, Eagles. I forgot who the other lost. Oh, the Titans Titans. That was the other loss. So yeah, but they were still a tough team and they presented their challenges to the Baltimore Ravens early on, but Baltimore Ravens, they took care of business. They adjusted and they, they made this game look easy. They really did, especially once they got going, they did not stop. And that's so important that you do not stop Ravens. There were some times where it looked like they might get a little conservative, but they were like, no, no, no, we ain't doing that. We are going to close this out in a way that we haven't closed it out ever because they, they said that this was the most points that the Baltimore Ravens have ever scored at M.T. Bank Stadium. And this is the most points that the Baltimore Ravens team has ever scored in history ever since the Miami Dolphins game in 2019 in Lamar Jackson's other MVP season. So it seems as if when Lamar Jackson, when he's on against the Miami Dolphins, then he's going to win an MVP. Now, somebody mentioned this crazy how Lamar Jackson that he, they were like, oh, it's crazy how in Lamar Jackson's first year with new offensive coordinators, he wins the MVP. Now, of course, the MVP is not officially official yet, but you know, yeah, Lamar is most likely going to get it. Now, I was saying this during the stream. I don't think it'll be unanimous, but even if it's not, that's okay. That's okay. I'm that's perfectly fine in my opinion. But this was a great game. Great win. Ravens get the number one seed. And again, next week, we'll start his play. I don't think so, but we'll see. We'll see how Ravens treat next week against the Pittsburgh Steelers, how they feeling. But they got a lot of guys banged up a lot of guys that I think are probably going to want to get some rest and guys who they they're going to want to rest. So we'll see how things go. Team keeping clean. I love y'all so much Ravens. We love y'all so much. Thank you for taking care of business. I said that this game was personal for the Baltimore Ravens, but it was also personal for me too, especially being down here in Miami. I got friends. I got family. That's a lot of dolphins fans, a lot of them. But it was nice that like, like last year, and I was talking about this earlier last year when, um, when the Ravens played the dolphins, Ravens were blowing them out. Dolphins came back in one. Oh, I got so many texts and so many calls from people and I had even got texts from phone numbers that I didn't even have saved on my phone, but this year I ain't getting out a single one.
