 I think these people better really start giving Lamar his respect before he starts going off on all of them too. Anyway, first question came from my guy, Gold Morano. He said, engraving, I just watched you read ESPN's top 10 QB lists. What do you believe that Lamar would have to do in order to crack their top 10? It's my opinion that every name that you read leads a team in which the GM invests heavily in the wide receiver corps. Placing their QBs in the best possible situation. Because Lamar with a QB for any of those teams, he'd have to run a lot less and those media outlets would respect him in a different way. Get DK Metcalf as the Costa should have already done and watch the respect level go through the roof. Metcalf would probably have all the prognosticators picking the Ravens as the favorite to play in the Super Bowl and for Lamar to be awarded the MVP once again. Man, Ravens got DK Metcalf and I told y'all this before, I'm like, okay, yeah, all right, Super Bowl, Super Bowl, yeah, they okay, yeah, they gonna do it for show for show now. But anyway, what do you believe that the Ravens would have to do in order to, I mean, Lamar would have to do in order to crack their top 10? I think the real question is what does Lamar have to do in order to really gain the respect of a lot of the media? Because with the media, they control a lot of the people's thinking, they control a lot of fans thinking because again, something that we've said on here for a long time, people will watch NFL Network, ESPN, blah, blah, blah, they watch whatever. And they'll be like, oh, okay, these guys in the suits on the shows, analysts and commentators and experts, they all saying it. Okay, so it must be true. It must be true. And a lot of stuff that they say, and not only about Lamar Jackson having with other quarterbacks, other just players in general too, a lot of what they say, it can be dead wrong and it's tough for them because a lot of these commentators are in such tough positions because they have to cover so many different areas and so many different topics that they can't really focus in on one specific player, one specific game. They just look at a stat sheet and it's like, okay, got some talking points. Okay, let's go. So I can't, not that I can't blame them because they do go on and say what they say and they get to check to do that. But they're in a very, very tough position that they just, it's like, again, Jack of all trades, but master of nothing. It's one of those type of things. So one for Lamar to crank the top 10, I don't know what he has to do, really. I don't know. I don't know what to have gold, what 17 and 0, throw 50 touchdowns, zero interceptions, throw for 6,000 passing yards, run for another 1,200. I don't have a perfect QBR, QB rating of 158.3. It's like he has to do, he has to have perfection or something. Now, as far as him gaining respect, what does he have to do to gain the respect of the media? Some that I said back in 2018 and then I said it again in 2019. Nothing that he ever does will be good enough for a lot of people. Nothing he ever does will be good enough. It's a sad truth. It's a harsh reality. Nothing he does will ever be good enough for some people. He can go out there, he can go 17 and 0. Ravens could win every single game on their schedule in the regular season. Won't be good enough. They'll say, hey, well, let's see what they do, playoffs. They could go three and 0 in the playoffs. Win the Super Bowl top of the world. People say, oh, no, that that was just fluky. He got lucky, let's see what he does the following year. Because a lot of people just when it comes to Lamar Jackson, people have they've come up with these these theories and how they feel about them and whatnot. And a lot of the stuff that he shut down and he's proven wrong already. But a lot of people just don't like going back on their word and they don't like going back and being like, hey, man, my fault. I was wrong. I was wrong. So many people just they don't they don't like saying that. They don't know what it means to say, hey, I was wrong. And a lot of people can't live with that. And so for that reason, I think that not nothing's going to be good enough, nothing. He like got a made it, got a made it. Well, that's my home. He ain't that right in gravy, right in gravy. Next question came from my guy, J.P.D. He said, what's up in gravy and hope you are doing well and have the opportunity to enjoy the fruits of your labor. I wanted to ask what are your expectations for the Ravens this upcoming season? After the draft and from everybody that they signed, he said, me personally, I'm just going to enjoy the opportunity and privilege of watching Lamar Jackson play QB for the Ravens, whether he signs with the team or not after this year. A lot of news and smokescreens have been released about his contract situation with the Ravens and nothing will be set in stone until the real news breaks in regards to his future. Whatever happens, I'm going to gratefully enjoy watching Lamar play for my hometown team for this upcoming season. Oh, man, it sounds like you are almost sending like Lamar Gabylet or something. But expectations for Ravens this season. Based off of the team that they had in health, it's such a big fact, you know, health is a big factor. My ceiling for them would be AFC championship right now. Based off of the team, I obviously hope that they break through that ceiling and get to the Super Bowl. But I think right now they are a. They are an AFC championship team. I just feel like they're a receiver away. They're a significant receiver away from being a Super Bowl team because they have depth everywhere, everywhere, quality depth everywhere. But a wide receiver, that's the only question mark for me. And then that lineback a little bit too. But hopefully Patrick Quinn can really take off this year but we'll see. But yeah, so that's what I would say. I say AFC championship team. Hopefully this will be the year where they can win multiple playoff games because they keep getting over hump after hump after hump. So they've been making improvements. They've been making strides but it's time to put it all together and really get over a huge hurdle. So it's gonna come down to execution. It's gonna come down to coaching. It's gonna come down to just so many different little things. See what the Ravens is, it's a lot of little things that can make such a big difference and just getting them to that next level. Next question came from my boy, M.G. He said, hey, what's good in Graven? So when Ronnie Stanley is healthy so that McCurry wouldn't need to feel in that left tackle do you believe McCurry would start at left guard? Oh, I think that's a real possibility but also think like McCurry, he could be like just a reserved guy. He could be an extra offensive lineman. They could have him start at left guard but I think he, yeah. Cause they were doing a lot of flip flopping last year. We've been Cleveland with Tyre Phillips, we've been Powers. They were doing like flip flop. But yeah, I think it is a real possibility though because you have your left tackle assuming Ronnie Stanley's healthy like you said, assuming you have your left tackle set. You have your center set. You have your right guard set. You have your right tackle Morgan Moses, most likely set. So that's the only position where it's like, huh, who's it gonna be? Who's gonna feel that role? And they obviously love Patrick McCurry. They gave him the extension last year to keep him around for the foreseeable future. Now, did they sign him to be that swing man that that backup guy could, they could have but Ravens, they try to maximize their money. And they try to get the most for their dollar. So yeah, I could see him starting there. He said, the reason I say that is he is very versatile. We resigned him towards the end of the season and he is relatively healthy. I think Tyre Phillips, Powers and Cleveland are very solid quality depth guys but I think McCurry is too good and expensive just to be a six man. Your thoughts stay safe and peace. Oh, this guy, he said him say, hide them all for me. Appreciate you, man. Next question came from my guy, Phil. He said yesterday NFL analyst, Dan Orvalski and from NFL quarterback. He said, made a great point on Twitter of how the coaches and owners who do the voting on top 10 at each position don't respect today's game with mobile QBs coming out of college and mainly focus on old school pocket passers and their season high passing yards. Well, makes sense. Orvalski pointed out that Lamar in his three out of four years as a starter has averaged 4,300 combined yards, 35 touchdowns, 12 wins with a 37 and 12 record which is a 76% win percentage and has made the playoffs three out of his four seasons. Also mentioned with these stats he belongs in the top 10 instead of Herbert. What are your thoughts? Yeah, I mean, you know how I feel about that already. We done gone over that a lot. Top 10 for Lamar for sure. I feel like that's no question. I feel like it's not even debatable really because you look at, especially when you mentioned in Herbert specifically, you just look at the impact, man. Look at the impact and think about this to really like get a visual, not necessarily a visual but anyway, think about this. What if they flip teams? What if they flip teams? What if Herbert was on the Ravens and Lamar was on the Chargers? I guarantee them Chargers will go off, man. With those with, ooh, them Chargers will go off. Herbert on the Ravens though, ooh, he would get destroyed. He would get destroyed. Well, he is a little bit mobile but I don't think he'd be mobile enough. He could destroy it. And he'd be like, you got this tall quarterback. He'd be looking down on all his receivers like, hey, like Fee-Fai-Foe-Fung, man. But just, so again, Herbert is a baller, man. He's a baller. So I ain't trying to do this thing where you put these quarterbacks against each other and you gotta pick one and you hate one and you love the other. I ain't nothing like that. Herbert is a baller. I love Justin Herbert. But with Lamar Jackson, just his impact and everything that he has to do, everything that's required of him in order for the Baltimore Ravens to be successful, that puts him in the top 10, no doubt. Won't be a bad move to make. Next question came from my boy Kevin B. He said, I like Carlos Dunlap the most because he can get up the middle. What's your thoughts? Ooh, Carlos Dunlap. I thought, I thought somebody had signed him already. Carlos Dunlap. former Cincinnati bingo. So he would fit right in with the division. I wouldn't be mad at it. Be nice, depth, somebody who got started and experienced. Somebody who's had a lot of success, obviously in more previous years than recent. As a past Russia, kind of just everything fell apart for him. I know it kind of really got ugly toward the end of his stint with the bingos because he started putting his house up on the market before he was even off the team. And their relationship got ugly. But anyway, went to the Seahawks. They died there. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't be mad at him. I mean, there's JPP as well. Wouldn't be mad at that one. So I mean, yeah, I guess for Carlos Dunlap. Yeah, and if he is versatile like that, if he can't get pressure up the middle too, then you can move him around and you can do more things. And so I wouldn't be too mad at that. Yeah, I guess not. The next question came from Tag 13. He said, hey, man, what's up, Hopal as well? But do you think EDC would really fire Harbaugh and Roman next season if the team does not make a deep playoff run? Roman, I think this is his last season regardless of what happens, good or bad. But Harbaugh, I just can't see it. I can't see them firing Harbaugh. I don't see the Ravens doing that. Even if, same thing, they went like two and 15. I just, I don't see them doing it. And he said, and if so, who or if so, do you think the team already has potential candidates on for those positions on the team? As far as new head coach, maybe, but I don't think so. But maybe it would just, this depends on so much. Like it depends on what the strengths and weaknesses of the team would be. It would just depend on so much. And he said, or who would best suit LJ and have smart adjustments, like making adjustments and changing scheme. Mid game, if something is not working and most importantly, putting other players in position to succeed by using pre-snap motion, making mismatches, getting Lamar to the line with at least 25 seconds to read the defense, make artables, tell his OC what he sees, which can help both of them have better communication, being on the same page so him and Bateman don't have to be clearly frustrated at what's going on. But what you wrote, it sound like you are clearly frustrated with what has been going on. Yeah, it all depends on how things play out this year. I don't see any scenario where they fire John Hubbell. So I don't think that happens at all, no matter how good or bad the Ravens do, no matter how far or how shallow they go in the playoffs. I don't see any scenario where they fire John Hubbell. As far as offensive coordinator with Greg Roman, who I think will end up moving on, again, yeah, I think T-Martin or Keith Williams, I think one of those two guys, I think more so T-Martin, I think he would be the guy to take over. And I think Keith Williams could be, he would move up, he would get promoted to something else, obviously on offense, to where he would be still continuing to help out. It just looks like that's the direction that they're headed in anyway. So it just seemed like they gonna get there eventually. But I think it starts next year. Well, at the latest, at the latest. We'll see what happens with Greg Roman. If he makes it through the season, okay, great. That means the offense was doing great. If he doesn't make it through the season, okay. Wow, the Ravens actually were willing to make that change at offensive coordinator during the season. So I mean, we'll see what happens. We'll see what happens. I ain't one of them people ain't like, oh man, Greg Roman must go. No, I think Greg Roman must go in the booth and make some adjustments a lot better. Really this whole team gotta make adjustments a lot better. So I certainly think he got some improvements to make. But again, a lot just falls from the top too. Hardball got to hold his guys more accountable. For sure. He got to hold his coordinators more accountable. And I mean, he talked a good game in one of his offseason presses. John Hardball did about the offense and Greg Roman. He's like, oh yeah, he's like putting up the yards. That's nice, but we got to score points. He said, we got to score points. He said, the yards, that's cool. That ain't good enough though. I'm of course paraphrasing, but he basically said that. And I was like, whoa, okay, hold up now. And I was just so surprised when he even said that. But it's not just about word, it's about action too. So we'll see if these Ravens, coaching staff and all of them are really about that action. And I'm just what I mean. You two team keep it clean. You see my boy, he like automated, automated. Boy, that's my homie, ain't that right in Graven? Right in Graven. Shout out to Graven.
