 The Ravens playoff game tonight against the Cincinnati Bingles is a perfect game for John Hardball in his philosophy on the field to be put on full display. Ravens under Hardball, they love to run the ball and play good defense. That's what they specialize in. That's what they focus on. So the game today is a perfect opportunity for that. It's cold weather, it's a playoff game. You're missing your starting quarterback. Why not capitalize on the things that you love? But this is also a perfect game for John Hardball and his off field philosophy to be put on full display as well. One of the things John Hardball loves to do is play as many mind games as he possibly came before kickoff. And one of those mind games is who a starter could be at a certain position if he has injuries at that certain position. Hey, and in the press, the reporters will be like, hey, what's the status on this player? Is he going to return this week? Is he going to start this week? We see he's been practicing. Is he in line to start the game? And Hardball will be like, oh, we're not going to name a starter yet. Well, we'll see about that. Well, I don't know about that. And now, apparently, according to Ian Rappaport, that's going to be on full display tonight because Tyler Huntley's been out for a little bit. But he started practicing this week. He started throwing this week. So Tyler Huntley is back. He will be active. And of course, Anthony Brown, he started in Tyler Huntley's absence. And both of them have started in Lamar Jackson's absence. But Lamar is out. He is not playing tonight at all. He's already been ruled out. So who's it going to be? Is Tyler Huntley going to get the start? Or is Anthony Brown going to get the start? Well, let's read the report from Ian Rappaport, which is funny, but it is just so John Hardball. Anyway, he said the Ravens haven't named a starting quarterback, but all signs point to them playing both Tyler Huntley and Anthony Brown at QB in their playoff game versus the Bengals sources say. So, hey, like, okay, I ain't mad at it, man. I ain't mad at it, man. We just, Hardball, just do what you do, man. Go win. I know Hardball is, I believe he's undefeated. In wild card games, in, like, away wild card games, something like that. But, I mean, even with that, whether you're undefeated or not, go in. Go get it done. Because Ravens, despite what so many people are saying, despite how so many people feel, Ravens do have a legitimate shot at winning this game. And like I said, I think they're going to win. I think they're going to win, like, 21-19. And, hey, we'll see how it goes. I mean, last night, right? As soon as the game started, right at 8.16 p.m., I tweeted it out. I said, Trevor Lawrence, he's going to throw four touchdowns tonight. And after the first pick, so many people looked at it, crazy, look at you. Oh, you got the four picks. After the second pick, they were like, oh, look at this guy. All takes exposed. Then after the third pick, they were like, hi, Graven, what are you talking about? You don't know nothing. And then after the fourth pick, they were like, hey, don't tweet about the Ravens tomorrow because you're going to jinx it, man. Even though you know such thing, you have no jinx. But anyway, look what Trevor Lawrence ended up doing. But anyway, moving back to the Ravens, let's read the article. Because this, I wonder how, if they do end up doing this, I wonder exactly how they're going to do it. Like, are they going to do series by series? Are they going to do quarter by quarter? I know my guy, I was talking to my guy JT a couple of days ago. And he had suggested this before, before this article came out. Again, this was a couple of days ago. He suggested that the Ravens play both quarterbacks. He said, if Tyler Huntley gets to start, and things ain't looking so good, pull Tyler Huntley, put in Anthony Brown. So, hey, we'll see exactly how that goes. But the article says, Baltimore Ravens head coach John Hardball on Friday did not announce a starting quarterback for tonight's wild card game in Cincinnati, choosing to take it right up until game time. And yeah, that's Hardball all day. That's Hardball, man. It's like you don't know until the actual lineups come up. Even though us Ravens fans, like we usually got a clue and we usually get those clues right. But still, Hardball right up until game plan, getting playing games with the opponents or whatnot. But anyway, he said that, however, might not be the most intriguing development regarding the Ravens signal callers. Sources say the Ravens plan to play both quarterbacks against the Bengals. Tyler Snoop Huntley and Anthony Brown. One thing, love Ian Rappapour. Love is reporting. Obviously, one of the best in the game, one of the most respected in the game. Love it. He always breaking news, this and that. Like he's really, his biggest competition really is Adam Schefters. Him and Adam Schefter, they're the biggest ones. They're not the only ones, obviously, but they're the biggest. It's like an NBA, it's Waj and Shams. But anyway, one thing that I just, it is so like annoying or not even annoying. It's so cringy. Whenever he talks about Snoop, you don't gotta say his whole name and his nickname. Don't, like Tyler Snoop Huntley. No, pick one or the other. Either call him Tyler Huntley or call him Snoop. Don't call him Tyler Snoop, I hate when he does that. But anyway, that's just me. I don't know if any of y'all feel the same way, but I, and when he says it out, like he wrote it in the article, but he says it out loud too. Like when he's doing videos and stuff, he'll say Tyler Snoop Huntley. Just call him Snoop or call him Tyler Huntley. Anyway, he says, as long as they say the Ravens plan to play both quarterbacks against the Bengals, Tyler Snoop Huntley and Anthony Brown, that's one reason why an announced starter might not matter as much. Who plays could depend on the package Baltimore uses. It's funny. Ravens fans like are the best, man. I love y'all so much because Ravens fans are so funny. I saw somebody say, oh, they gonna bring out Anthony Brown when it's time to throw the ball. Like straight up, like just like that. They gonna bring out Anthony Brown when it's time to throw the ball. But anyway, star quarterback Lamar Jackson remains out due to a grade two PCL sprain. Huntley has battled shoulder tendonitis and a wrist injury, but he was a full participant on Friday, an indication of his readiness for Sunday while Brown started last week's loss to the Bengals. Hardball described himself as hopeful that Huntley, that Huntley would be able to go and the team did not elevate QB Brett Huntley from the practice squad. Now it seems both Brown and Huntley will go. While it might be an uphill battle for Baltimore against the Bengals, that's been his favorite phrase this week, uphill battle. Cause he said the uphill battle about Lamar Jackson even playing in this game or practicing this past week. And we saw that, but anyway, while it might be an uphill battle for Baltimore against the Bengals, two quarterbacks could present a curve ball. To be sure, Huntley and Brown have different strengths. Yes, they certainly do. That is true. So you combine those strengths into one and boom, you come out with a win. Anyway, you said in five games, Huntley has completed 67% of his passes but also has 43 Russian attempts. Brown has just three rushes in two games and threw it 44 times last week. The hope is to present since his defense with a bit more of a challenge. Asked if he's ready to return, Huntley told reporters on Friday that he has no nerves. Just excited to get back out there after missing one week. It's a privilege to go out there and play football and I appreciate it. So, yeah, the show must go on and we'll see how this show ends up going tonight. Now, the way that they do this is gonna be interesting because are they gonna force the issue? I hope not. I really hope they don't like overthink it. Like say for instance, whoever, say for instance Tyler Huntley, just using it as an example. Say for instance Tyler Huntley, he opens the game, maybe they get a field goal, maybe they punt, maybe they get a touchdown, whatever they get. I'm gonna just say field goal or punt. So he opens the game, they either get three or they get nothing. No turnovers, but they get three or they get nothing. So the next drive, Tyler Huntley drives the team down for a touchdown. And then Bringles get the ball in, Tyler Huntley drives the team down for a field goal. I would hope that if Tyler's driving the team down that they wouldn't be like yank. All right, Anthony Brown, you in now. Cause I just, I would hope that they wouldn't try to like mess up momentum. The same way they would do in 2018 when Lamar was a rookie with Joe Flacco. There would be a lot of time when it was so good, but there would be times when Joe Flacco was actually moving the Ravens offense. They were moving the ball and then the coach was like, all right Lamar, go. Go do what you do. And it was like, oh, okay. I mean, we love Lamar in the open that he does his thing, but you messing up the flow. Sometimes it'll work, sometimes it wouldn't work, but they will mess up the flow. So I just hope that they can just ride the hot hand. And I know like playing both quarterbacks, it could throw the Bengals off, but it could also throw the Ravens off as well. It will be harder for the quarterbacks to get into a rhythm if they're going back, forth, back, forth, back, forth, back, forth. So we just got to see how the Ravens do this thing, man. But it should be fun. I love y'all team, keep it clean. I really thought that I wasn't gonna see y'all until later tonight for the stream, but Ravens just, they got to be Ravens. So it's literally something new every single day, but we love them. Question from subscribers. I told y'all, and this last thing before we get out of here, I told y'all that the other day, I had 49 minutes of question from subscriber, video 49 minutes, wasn't 49 minutes long, but it was 49 minutes in recording. So I would have had to break that up, edit it and stuff like that. So I probably would have ended up being like 40 minutes, but whatever, I accidentally deleted it. And I just did not have the energy, the patience, the, I just did not have it to do the questions over yet. So we will do all those questions this week after the game. As Ravens prepare for whoever they're gonna end up playing next week. But anyway, I love y'all, team, keep it clean. I appreciate y'all. Thank y'all for being patient. Thank y'all for supporting. Thank y'all for 62,000 subscribers. We just crossed the 62,000 subscriber milestone. So, man, that's crazy, man. Like, and I'm just thinking about different milestones that we'll get, I mean, we'll get there when we get there, but the next, probably the next biggest milestone or next big, big milestone. I mean, for me it'll be 65,000, really 63,000, but 65,000, that would be like really then 70,000. That would be like, that'd be like weird, man. That'd be like really weird, man. Like, I don't know, man. It's crazy, man. It's like, it's crazy how so many people that you don't know, like it's a lot of people that do know that support like crazy. And I really appreciate the people that I know in my life personally, because they support. They say it's some people that don't even know about anything about football. I mean, we don't even know anything about football, but they still subscribe. They still be watching the videos and stuff. They'll be like, hey, I'll just have it on. I'll play the videos and stuff. I don't know what's going on, but I'll play the videos and then like even friends of family that support, like one of my family members, she, one of her friends, I guess one of her friends was at her house watching, it was a live stream or something. And her friend asked her like, oh, that's all that he does. That's all that he does for work. And she was like, yeah, but I mean, that's not all that we do, not just live stream. It's a lot more than that, but it'll just, it's always funny here like story like that and stuff, man, but I do appreciate how much my friends and family they like really support, but I appreciate how y'all support cause y'all have become friends and family. It's a lot of people that we've met over the years, especially in person that we like super cool with. And some people that we just have communicated with on here, whether it be through messages, whether it be through comments, whether, and it's like you sort of get to know a bit of how somebody is through their comments cause you see certain names that pop up every single video. I see, I can't always respond to every single one, but I'll be seeing them certain names that pop up in every single video and their comments are orchestrated a certain way. It's like, okay, yeah, that is something that he or she would say or whatnot, but I really appreciate y'all supporting cause y'all support in such a big way, man. Such a big way. And I appreciate it. It makes such a big difference. I appreciate how y'all just, y'all are really positive. Y'all are really, y'all are just y'all, man. So it's super cool. So thank you. Thank you for being you. I love you. I appreciate you. And like the Ravens will not be at the end of the night when it comes to being in the playoffs. We out.
