 We on tiktok with it now y'all and of course Instagram and Twitter y'all can follow on all those but anyway YouTube Team keep it clean. What's going on? It's engraving here with another video Happy Saturday. Hope y'all are doing great. Hope everything is good in your life. And if it's not Okay, that's fine. You gotta turn it around. That's it I know stuff be getting troubling stuff be getting annoying people be getting annoying But just try to let stuff go just try to brush it off anyway Justin Houston he spoke to the media today. Well first John Hall ball did and I'm Hollywood was out there. He wasn't practicing, but he was working on himself and whatnot So that's good. So that gives us somewhat of him may be indication that he may be close but how boss said they're not gonna rush it and You don't you never want to put somebody back out there too early because you don't want them to re-injure whatever current injury They have so that's we completely understand and again with Jimmy Smith quick recap. It's a low-angle sprain They'll be out a couple of weeks. So he should be ready for the first regular season game But we'll see but Jimmy Smith is good to go So that's a beautiful thing that he will not miss an extended period of time big relief Lamar That's what was back out there today. Um, they said that look more I think Jameson Hensley said he was like 11 for 19. I said he threw a lot of short passes They they didn't want to put a full workload on him, which is understandable because of somebody's missed a Significant amount of time. You can't just pile up everything all at once But they did say that uh, he was more accurate than what the numbers would show but they said that they were like for a drive So Okay, cool. No problem. They want to drop let them drop now rather than the regular season let them get it out of this system now fine cool But anyway Whoo, Justin Houston Justin Houston this had to be this was a very quick Pressure and I told y'all before by the time we get through training camp The Ravens will have interviewed every single player on the 90 man roster They will have interviewed every single coach because these pressures which we appreciate we love them Trust me We love them because I don't know if other fans teams or other teams do it like this But straight up Ravens You may not agree with all the moves that they make in the way they do certain things and whatnot But as a fan they put on for us a lot They put on for us a whole lot with the way that they run stuff They do so much for Ravens fans. It's great but Anyway, Justin Houston when he spoke today He just talked about the whole process what he's looking to do why he chose the Ravens And he said it was a scheme fit He said he felt like this scheme was better than some other ones and they asked him for a whole lot Did it was it true that you you received a better offer? More money from other teams, but you still chose the Raven And then I think it was James and Hensley James Hensley been on fire today But I think he it was him that said whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa But was it the Steelers? That you turned down what did the Steelers offer you and he said hey, I was so close to being a stealer. I Was so close to signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers and we remember when the the report came out From shout out to the NFL chick and she said it She said that he received other offers from AFC North teams for more money But he wanted to be a Raven and that says a lot to the Ravens organization That says a lot to their front office that says a lot to the way they do things now That wasn't even a part about his precedent stuck out to me the most The part that stuck out to me the most and of course we've heard the story in the report that Marcus Peters was calling Justin Houston Marcus Peters was a big part of the Justin Houston recruitment because of course they both used to play in Kansas City But this is the kicker. This is what really got me The fact that he said and we heard that Marcus Peters had been doing some recruiting So he hit him up, but we heard about that Recently that he hit him up maybe recently, but Justin Houston. He said that as soon as the season ended Marcus Peters hit him up and said what you're doing this year. Well, who are you playing next year? You need to come here and To me that spoke volumes and I'm gonna tell you why Because Marcus Peters he plays on that defense first hand. He's a starter with the Ravens defense He's been playing with them for the past couple of years and he has made a huge significant impact on the team But he also is a very big student of the game. He's a very very extremely smart player I feel like his smarts are not appreciated enough by fans whether you're Ravens fan or not I know you could say this and that about him. Oh, he may not be that physical. Oh, he's not the best tackler Dada, but his smarts man. They don't get talked about enough But when Marcus Peters When Justin Houston said that I was like, oh Marcus Peters knew he knew what a big issue on this Ravens team was last season and that was a pass rush That was a pass rush because if Marcus Peters is hitting you up From jump as soon as the season is over if Marcus Peters is on the phone with you Hey, where you where you going this office? Where you going next season? You got to come through if he's saying that to you As soon as the season is over Then that lets you know right then and there like okay, Marcus Peters knows what the problem is And we've known that the problem the Ravens have had a pass rush issue for a little while now It's been a problem ever since Terrell so it's been gone. It's been rough. It's been very rough So Even with them adding Yankees and Gokway them having Matt Jude on Tyus Bowser He had a role but his role last year obviously and over the past couple years is obviously Nowhere close to what his role is going to be moving forward They've had pernell McPhee of course for the past couple years, but that the pass rush It just has not been enough it hasn't been enough and in a game the playoff game Against the bills where these dudes like It's like they were telling that whole game. It's like they were telling the Ravens Josh Allen was telling the Ravens Come get me come come try come try to get me. I bet you won't I bet you won't Because they passed the ball so much that game And I mean they got they had a nice real nice group of receivers there and they still do but still they passed Like they were not running the ball at all man These dudes were not running the ball at all and It's like they knew the Ravens pass rush was an issue and And really more so cuz I know the Ravens will get QB hits. I know they will get pressure But again, like I said sacks Sacks are the clothes. That's the closing deal right there and Again, I would have to disagree Respectfully, of course with wink when he says sacks are overrated. I just know I don't think that they are Because sacks clothe. They finish to play plays over Pressure plays not over QB hits plays not over Now that can start to mess with a QB's mind Oh throughout the course of the game because if he keeps getting hit from left right front said everywhere Then that's gonna mess with the with it with the clock in his head So when he actually does have time, he's not gonna think he has time because he's been getting hit so much throughout the game but a sack a Sack it does that and more so it messes with the QB's clock in his head And it also brings him down and actually finishes the play So with Justin Houston something that I'm sure Marcus Peters is more than aware of especially after playing with him too But something that Marcus Peters knows something that we know too is that with Justin Houston the production is there It has been there It and it's been consistent production throughout his whole career So with with that if you add that to the Ravens and again with the past rush This going into the past rush this year. It was not a an area of weakness in my opinion. It was an area of unknown Because again, we just don't know we didn't know who was gonna be there We didn't know how these guys were gonna perform as past rushes Again ties boughs will be on a full-time roll now a daffy away dylan Hayes a lot of unknown with that So with the past rush adding the Justin Houston gives you a known It gives you something that you know He talked about it in the presser today He said he one of the other reasons why he chose the Ravens was because this would be a position where he can get in one-on-one match ups and That says a lot about he how he feels about the skin in my opinion It says a lot about how he feels about this scheme and it says a lot about how he feels about the coaching and also the personnel too So I am it's really exciting. There's the whole Justin Houston thing I'm initially it took a little bit for it to sink in and I remember I again y'all know y'all already know I Didn't think that this was gonna happen. I did not think and They asked him about the process to they're like, oh, why why now? Why not early and he said he just he was just waiting Sorting everything out made it one to make sure he made the right decision and whatnot and we can respect that Because he did not he didn't rush it. He didn't rush it And and I liked how though just the way that he spoke Because the way that Justin Houston spoke today it reminded me a lot of when they initially interviewed T-Mallon and when you just Hear his voice his tone of voice and the confidence that he has when he speaks Because if somebody could tell you something and it could be the truth like like for example Lamar Jackson is Lamar Jackson is uh, he's um, he's the Ravens starting quarterback. That's that's who this starting quarterback is. It's Lamar If it was somebody who didn't know anything about the Ravens and didn't know anything about their depth chart about their personnel What not and you tell them like that that Lamar Jackson is there starting quarterback? They probably not gonna believe you because you don't have any confidence But if you tell them Lamar Jackson is Raven starting quarterback They believe you It's all about the way you say it and that confidence and again Justin Houston has it He spoke with it. He exemplified that in that press of the day so it was a beautiful thing to see it was a beautiful thing to watch and I'm excited for what he's gonna do as a Raven now I'll be even more excited when you change that ugly number But again, they got to get through all the cuts and all that good stuff. So Shout out to the Ravens. Shout out to your team. Keep it clean. I appreciate y'all. I love y'all and I'll see you very very soon. We are out
