This one came. Yeah, you two been acting up really really bad It's been like at an all-time low today, but it is what it is man. But anyway, this question came from my boy, Meach a.k.a. Sway a.k.a. Charles Brown a.k.a. Meme King a.k.a. Troll King a.k.a. Just a little bit of everything man. So shout out to my He eggs Would the Ravens still have drafted Lamar Jackson if If if if if if would the Ravens still have drafted Lamar Jackson if the fourth and 12th play never would have happened And y'all remember the fourth and 12th play that's where Us we were getting ready to head to the playoffs We just had to beat the bingles and all we had to do the only thing we had to do That's it and you're done the only thing we had to do Stop the bingles not on first down not on second down not on third down because all three those have been accomplished already Those were done all we had to do stop the bingles Not in a in an away game at a home game at a home game So all we had to do was stop the bingles Not in just any regular season game Not in just a throwaway game in a game that will get you back in a playoffs for the first time in three years All we go to ball to AJ Green all we had to do was stop the bingles From scoring or not even from scoring because they were down by three I believe all we had to do was stop the bingles on a fourth not a fourth and inches. No, no, no, no Not a fourth and inches not a fourth and one not a fourth and short but a fourth down long So these dudes would actually have to catch a plan. They can't just catch a quick slam They would have to catch a deep pass a fourth and 12. All we had to do was catch stop the bingles on a fourth So again this question. Oh there goes me try to he just joined it He's the question again was what the Ravens still have drafted Lamar Jackson had Had the rave if they would have stopped the bingles on that fourth and 12 and if they would have went on a playoff I think it's a big possibility that it's a yes the reason that I say that is because Flacco's connect this year And I mean, you know what now that I think about it Because the biggest thing that um that would change the answer to this question is playoff Playoff run because had they gone on a playoff run Then that means they would have won a game or two. Maybe it's about two games in the playoffs Whether they made it to the AFC championship division or whatever They would have did that thing in the playoffs now That would make things complicated because I think a big a big part of the reason why they drafted Lamar Jackson Is because they they knew they were at least writing them right now with Flacco for at least another year At least one more year because this is the this is the year where this is the last year of Guaranteed money on his deal. This is the last year after this year no more guaranteed money So you can cut them, lease them, trade them, whatever, you know, all of nothing But with it's tricky. This is a tricky question the tricky question But if they would have went on that playoff run That could have been Flacco letting them know like hey, I still got a lot left in the tank And you see you see we just put on a playoff run Y'all paying me all this money and hey, I'm here to show you why Because like I keep saying Flacco played the best football of his life The last like seven games of the season after the bi-week he played the best football of his life That's football of his life That's good football of his life was in the last seven games of the season. So They could have just wanted to ride our flack a little bit longer Even if they like cut them and brought them back at a dude's rate or more salary cap friendly deal Or if they just paid on what they've been paying Even though his salary is about to shoot up even if they just kept paying them that Flacco would have made it Harder for the Ravens to draft another quarterback to end up being his replacement But with that being said Would they have drafted Lamar Jackson and traded up to draft Lamar Jackson in the first round after trading back like 50,000 times what they still have done it I'm gonna go with a yes I'm gonna. I'm gonna go with a yes because While Flacco could have went on a playoff run Sure, they will take into accountability his age I Can say his recent injuries, but his injuries ain't been He had the ACL but that was like two three years ago. So that's been done. He had that concussion That was what he missed one game. He had a bye week. Yeah, he ain't even miss one game Excuse me. He just had a bye week And he had the the back problems. That was last year So I think they still would have drafted they still would have drafted Lamar Jackson only because Flacco is getting older he will be another year older and It will be time to start prepping for the future and even you know what? Not necessarily they not even necessarily that they would have drafted Lamar Jackson, but I think they still would have drafted a quarterback because It was it is time now is a good time. It was a good time I had been saying they should have trapped him like two years ago, but anyway Now is a good time because Flacco can steal he can still do his thing. He can still get it done but While he can still get it done It is it's it's not too early to start building for the future And we know Lamar not Lamar Jackson is not going to be starting this year Well, so far, he's not going to be starting this year. I don't expect him to start this year Of course, they're gonna do his gimmick plays or whatever trick plays a tie-rod Taylor Troy Smith Trick plays or whatever they're gonna do that, but he's not gonna be starting this year He'll be the starter in the future and who knows how long out that future is gonna be Who knows whether it's Flacco this year and maybe even Flacco next year depending on how this year goes Then in the future, it could be RG 3b to start and then Lamar Jackson still be the backup It could just be them two on the roster and Flacco gone It could be a lot of different things that we just We just won't know until we know um, because it's a lot of different possibilities as far as what could happen, um with This too, what a small question Is this It's it's just yeah, it isn't it's a tricky question, but I I still say even if they don't draft Lamar Jackson, I still think they draft a quarterback um Because yeah, they got they got a plan for the future they got they have to um Because Flacco again another year older and he can still get it done But why not start prepping him and what why not make the transition easy? I think that's what it is too for the Ravens. Um, it With them drafting a quarterback now Um, it gives him time to learn to play book learn the team learn the system blah blah blah But it makes the transition easier. You know how a lot of teams do it You know when a lot of teams draft their quarterback They do it when they have just a sucky season. Um, they're terrible They get terrible play out of their quarterback Just literally terrible all pretty much all year long. They're out of contention early They're not they don't even have a shot to make the playoff. Um, this the season is just they have a terrible season Those are usually the teams that draft the quarterback and they do it and they it has to be They make it so sudden That it has to be a sudden change or it has to be a dramatic change In the organization and their record for them to draft the quarterback But Ravens, I don't think the Ravens want to go through that Um, I don't think they like say for instance the Ravens have went 5 and 11 in terms Joe Flecker was just terrible all year long. Even though he was he wasn't really playing good that year before he got hurt, but safe instance They did that they just had a sucky season and then they drafted a quarterback So then it's like it's you can almost set up somebody for failure if um Your team just sucks and you draft the quarterback and expect everything to just turn around just like that So I think the Ravens they they don't want to set themselves up for failure They don't want to um They want Lamar to be eased in and again, like I said, they want the transition to be a goon They would they want a nice smooth transition That's the best words to say it. They want a smooth transition from Fleco to Lamar Jackson And whether the the route is Fleco to rg3 tomorrow, or it's just straight Fleco to Lamar Whatever it is to get to Lamar Jackson. They want to be a smooth process So I think they still would have drafted him or if not him at the quarterback and again that I think that's the smart move because It allows that transition and that entire process to just be a lot more simple. So Thank you for this question. I see why you wanted me to do this one. Um, this was a tough one It was a tricky one. Um, but it was a great question. I appreciate your meet Um, thank y'all for coming through
