 To team keep it clean What's going on this engraving here with another video and in this video? We got another episode of Questions from subscribers and this question. It's actually two questions from my boy, J. Money The the well first the first one he asked me was if Josh Gordon was reinstated should a rate should the Ravens pursue him and then the second question which is One of my personal favorites He said well John Harbaugh be on the hot seat if the Ravens missed the playoffs this and next season So let's get right into this but before you do. Let me introduce myself me I'm engraving vids and this is my YouTube channel engraving vids and I'm of course a Ravens fan And with me being the Ravens fan on here. We talk about Ravens all the time But we also talk about all 32 NFL teams So if you're Ravens fan if you're a fan of whoever make sure you subscribe if you just like talking NFL Because that's what we do on here and after you subscribe leave a like on the video turn You're not turning notifications on too So you don't ever miss when we go live like this because we usually do it every single day Sorry that I didn't go live last night, but I wasn't gonna lie to you all I was not gonna lie to you all because I did not watch that Monday night football game I watched like maybe like three or four plays total from the game. I Turned it on. I was watching wrestling and I just I turned it off. I wasn't watching it. I didn't watch it Barely watch the rest. I just I wasn't interested in it But anyway in this video, we are talking about the Ravens and y'all make sure y'all leave a thumbs up on the button, too I mean make sure y'all leave a thumbs up on the on the video I said leave a thumbs up on the button first first and foremost. Let me just Answer the Josh question. I mean the Josh Norman. I'm not the Josh Gordon question really quick He asked me if Josh Norman is reinstated should the Ravens pursue him Well, I would say you know what if you pursue Josh Gordon You have the risk of this guy getting banned for life or getting banned for a whole nother season, but You also run the risk of not having any receivers that can make any plays and You do that as soon as you put up suit up with that that purple suit with the bird right here Where it says Ravens on it is tough, but I'd say for Ravens the risk would be I mean the reward would be far greater than the risk far greater than the risk because Yeah, he would he would risk He would risk getting suspended for it in another entire season and more ban for life or whatever, but What receivers do you have that'll go up and get it like that? What what playmaking receivers do you have and Josh Norman? I mean Josh Gordon he did it with a quarterback that's He did it with a bunch of different quarterbacks that weren't even half decent now I know Flacco is bad, but Flacco he's been better than a lot of the Browns quarterbacks So imagine it. Oh, you know what and me saying imagine if he was paired with Flacco I mean and Kwame Flacco had and Kwame Bowden and Kwame Bowden did his thing Toy Smith did too and we had a nice number one receiver next to him. So I Wouldn't be mad if they did I wouldn't be mad if they didn't I don't see them doing it Josh Gordon is ever reinstated, but who knows anyway The my favorite question out of my own and these questions up for my boy Jay money my phone I didn't even give him a shout out. I don't even think I gave my boy a shout out He usually comes to every single stream Always real active on Twitter always hit me up on Twitter too. That's my guy shout out So shout out to Jay money, man. I appreciate you asking your questions, man now The real question that he asked I told y'all he asked two questions And again, he said if the Ravens missed the playoffs both this season and next season Will hardball be on the hot seat now his question that question was very very interesting Reason being because I thought hardball should have been on the hot seat last year I thought hardball would have got fired last year Not that I necessarily wanted him to get fired, but if he would have got fired I wouldn't have been so angry I Just it would have been one of those things where it's like, okay I get it, but with Jay money's question is very interesting because like I said He he asked about this season and next season now I thought hardball would have been on on the hot seat after last season But they gave him this one-year extension through 2019 now if he doesn't make it be done if we don't get to the playoffs this season Oh, please I if we don't get to the playoffs this season his Cheeks will be sweating his cheeks might even melt off from how hot that seat is they have to because John hardball people always bring up. Oh, yeah He first five years he led the team to the playoffs every year in the Super Bowl, which was great. We appreciate it but again like they always say the NFL is a what have you done for me lately league and For us lately hardball has not done too well and the way this team is shaping up Now again, our record says we're right there in the thicker things It's still early in the season with three and three all record says we're right there in the thicker things But our offense doesn't the team doesn't special teams fine Defense they are they do good enough to win But that offense the offense being the joke that it is it's a joke. That's not even funny, man It's not even funny, but with hardball He has got to and hope I was a great challenge. So shout out to hardball for being a great challenger when I say challenge I mean throwing that red flag But I think definitely if we miss the playoffs this season then those cheeks are gonna be so sweaty because They got a There's no excuse It's no excuse Yeah, we've had injuries every team got injuries and hardball always say he always says It's not about facing adversity It's about how you respond to it and the response to all the adversity that the Ravens have faced has not been good It hasn't been good. So even with the Ravens giving him that one-year extension last year to 2009 I mean, yeah, giving him that one-year extension this year actually With them giving him that one-year extension. Uh-uh, I wasn't buying that one bit I wasn't buying that one bit not one bit because that's That's a contract In a contract in the NFL means nothing. It means nothing. How many of these players actually play out their contracts? how many How many players actually play out their contracts before they either get new contracts or before they get released a Lot of these dudes don't finish half of these contracts man They don't Hey, y'all make sure y'all leave a like on the video. It's 30 people in here, but only 15 likes y'all make sure y'all click that thumbs up button But like I said half of these players, they don't even finish out their contracts for nothing, man So what is tacking on a year at the end of a deal? What's that supposed to prove that proves absolutely nothing that proves absolutely nothing That is that's nothing it doesn't mean anything It just means that they'll if that year is even guaranteed Which it probably is because he's a coach all it means is that if they want to fire you They'll just have to pay you for an extra year and it's not like they don't have the money money ain't the issue money definitely ain't the issue but John Harbaugh this this team has not been putting out a quality product for the past couple of years Now something that I was reading the other day. It was a one of the Ravens people that I follow on Twitter. He is um I'm not sure if it's the cap guy the guy that does a salary cap or Somebody else may be Brian McFarland. I forgot exactly who but they were going back and forth with some fans because He he said that the the stadium was empty on Sunday he said it looked like a preseason game on Sunday and Some fans were like well the Ravens have not been They're like why should people want to go and pay their money to go to a game if the Ravens put out this trash product You say what he was saying? Why should watch your fans want to go to games if Ravens are putting out such a trash product Which is understandable those tickets man those tickets they they're not cheap tickets to a football game are not cheap they're not and And Ozzie Newsom has a pardon and ruining flak oh to everybody got a part because everybody got a hand in the team but Those tickets to the games are not the tickets to the games are not cheap and If people paying tickets that the argument was that the Ravens are not putting out a quality product And that's why the stadium is empty because one tickets are expensive and to the the team is not Some people saying they're not fun to watch I me personally I wouldn't say they're not fun to watch. They're just very stressful to watch and Well, I guess that could mean they're not fun to watch too, but they they can stress you out man If you got health problems, do not be a Ravens fan. Do not be a Ravens fan. Don't be Don't be he said who on the Ravens is exciting. You're right They don't have no they don't have those players at least the defense you feel like they could always make a play But I mean Sunday's game was just and even games to the steel. I know still is getting me some place But Sunday's game was just ugly nasty disgusting And that that took everything out of you too, man even though Meach had mentioned it before like man He mentioned it before that Ravens like breaking records and they did break that record about the face of the rookie Rookie quarterback at home. They had been undefeated like 11 or someone 90. No, whatever it was and that got axed but But anyway back to the Twitter argument I can't help but to agree with the with the fan on that one Oh, but what what the the Ravens reporter what he was saying? He said the Ravens fans. He said Ravens fans are spoiled He said Ravens fans are spoiled because they so used to having a good quality team and While I agree with that We I mean we were used to that. I don't know about used to now now We I mean that was years ago. What was the last time 2014? I think that was a there was a kubiak year That was a kubiak year And you know what? It's a shame that whenever people at least myself. I'm guilty of it Whenever people think about 2014 the first thing that pops up in their head is kubiak It's not flakko not for set Not um Do we have on that? We have on Daniels that year. Did we I think we did but It's it's usually always kubiak But I remember Steve's been seeing it too That guy he was definitely something serious But anyway This the product that we have been seeing for the past two years and counting has been Disgusting it's been nasty they It's just like they don't have any fight man with more so the offense, but the fight is not there You just Sometimes when I'm watching the games You know how when the camera is on the cameras on the quarterback when it's on the quarterback every play he drives he drives back to pass and Sometimes even though you can't see the receiver who the ball is going to sometimes Even though you can't see the Whatever player the ball is being thrown to whatever Players in the direction of balls being thrown to sometimes you can just tell when it's gonna be a completion Sometimes you can just tell when it's gonna be a completion You can just tell when that ball is so on point and it just looks so good even before they show the receiver catching it or Dropping it or whatever sometimes you just know With flakko now, I feel like everything that he throws gonna get dropped Pick incompletion overthrow under throw But that's just a little side note, but anyway back to the question that was asked I know we got way off topic like we always do But back to the question that was being asked I think hard but I think hard balls actually on the hot seat right now But I think it's just not public. I think he's I think he's actually on the hot seat as we speak because he Obviously is not getting everything out of his players He is The coaching staff under him has just I mean he brought he kept Marty more than ever you say his name He let him come on and let let him let him get a let him get a full offseason on this belt with the team Which was fine. I didn't have a problem with that Because I was like, you know what we had What's the guy's name always forget the dude's name that we had Mark Tressman last year had Mark Tressman last year the quote-on-quote quarterback whisperer I think he whispered the flakko continue to be sorry Continue to be sorry Continue your inconsistencies Continue to not be successful continue to make bad reads the quarterback whisperer mr. Mark Tressman How about they brought him on last year and that didn't work out so they fired him after a couple games whatever and then Marty moan heck took over he took over and Marty moan heck took over and But he didn't get a full office. He didn't get a full season. He didn't get a full season So what they did they say, you know what we're gonna let this guy get a full season of work Which is understandable that's fine because he didn't have that so I agree with that let him get a full season under his belt so There's no excuse with it with his office because he had an excuse last year He had an excuse he had to be given an excuse because He didn't get to install this office. He had to write off a mark Tressman's back but now his office is installed and It's bad it's bad it's bad now I don't blame this on Moan heck though. I Don't blame this on Marty moan heck. I don't blame this on Mark Tressman, I don't blame it on Gary Kubiak. I don't blame it on Jim Caldwell, I don't blame it on Cam Cameron. I Don't blame it on Jim Zorn. I don't blame it on Hugh Jackson. You get what I'm written. You get what I'm going with this You get what I'm going with this I don't blame it on the offensive coordinators when the only thing that has been consistent about this offense through the years Has been the quarterback Shout out to Matt Jude on you. He did play pretty great Question Joe Flacco or Jay Cutler. You can toss up. It's pretty much the same person Yeah, and that's true they do neglect the offense like this year they did it and they they lucky they even got Jeremy Macklin What what would have happened if we didn't even get Jeremy Macklin? We would be I said we flip another game. So he might be like two and four If we didn't get Jerry Macklin, what happens But anyway, I just like with Flacco he It's it's weird. I know a lot of people a lot of people always talk about Gary Kubi X here We miss Gary Kubi X. We miss what he brought to the office this and that But But with that and I do miss that because that season was a lot of fun It was actually weird to have an offense that was actually decent for most of the time There were some games where they just lay flat But it was kind of weird to actually have a one of the best offensive lines have a such a great running game and They were actually making things happen But who knows what would have happened if he stayed another year who knows we don't know we don't know We don't know He said how about didn't overpay for a quarterback see with Flacco with the with Flacco's quarter I mean with Flacco's contract situation. It's a very tough one reason being Reason being because Flacco had went out He yes, he was inconsistent through all his years during the regular season. That's old news but during the playoffs During the previous playoffs and then that playoff year 2 that they won a Super Bowl. He's excellent He always plays great in the playoffs. So Flacco had been it's hard to say this It's no, okay. I know how to say it Flacco had been the Ravens most They they he had been the Ravens most successful quarterback That they ever had he had been their most successful quarterback I was about to say the best quarterback that they ever had but I had to I had to take a step back I can take a breather Before I said that but he had been the Ravens most successful quarterback So with him being the Ravens most Successful quarterback you can't just win a Super Bowl with your most successful quarterback and let him walk You can't do that So then paying him. I wasn't mad that they paid him He got his money. He earned his money and like they always said at that time That was the going rate for the quarterbacks at that time. That was the price That was the price. So then them giving him the contract No problem. What else are you gonna pay the quarterback that just won you a Super Bowl? They didn't win the Super Bowl in spite of Joe Flacco They won the Super Bowl because of him the playoff games where they always talk about the 11 touchdowns No interceptions or 12 touchdown what happened much it was even though he should have thrown two interceptions I remember one specifically in a Broncos game And I think it was one in the coast game too, but they both got dropped But anyway, they they they had to pay him they had to pay him Because he had just won us those playoff games and won us the Super Bowl and of course the defense played their part too But Flacco he did his thing. So they had to pay him. So them paying him I had no problem with that Because even if you look at it now quarterbacks that don't even have a Super Bowl some quarterbacks that don't even have playoff wins What about their car? Look at Derek Carter's dude. Just got a bunch of money. How many times does this dude want to play off game? I mean, I can't wait while you come up with the answer But That Derek Carr get he got paid. Um Cam Newton he got paid I think I forget if Matt Ryan got paid or not if he didn't he's getting ready to but the quarterbacks are They they're getting paid they get paid at the going rate for quarterbacks so when Flacco When Flacco got paid that wasn't an issue now when they gave him a bonus a forty four million dollar bonus and That extent they extended his contract and made his cat Oh that one kind of like I was when he was coming off of ACL injury. They gave us do forty four million more dollars Coming off an ACL injuries They gave us do forty four million dollars coming off of ACL injury that part. I was a little confused. I Was a little confused I Was confused I was like hold up but they did it for Cap room or something but it just The contract when you look back at it it looks bad it looks bad And then when you look at them giving him that bonus it looks even worse but They had no choice at that time, but now Oh somebody said good question static. What do you say? What do you say woman boy static? He said how is Flacco supposed to succeed with no wide receivers no offensive line and no run game They got it. They got to put the pieces in place. I could say it but Flacco. That's the thing Even with those things even with those things Flacco has always been inconsistent Always like I always say I always got to go back to the numbers because these numbers mean the most to me with Flacco Like I go back to last week in the Raiders game His best game of the season. What was he like 14 for 18 or something like that? And he threw for like maybe what was it 200 yards might have been if it wasn't 200 yards And it was either right under or right over He His best game of the season. He didn't even throw any touchdowns But he that was his best game of this season so far But then I go back to his best his best season I mean that was the best game of his season so far this year Then I go back to the best season that he ever had was 27 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. I Don't get that Okay, there we go appreciate it Callaway. He said Flacco was 19 for 26 19 for 26 for 222 yards in the Raiders game. That's bad. I mean that's not bad But for your quarterbacks best game of the season Six weeks through. I mean no that was five weeks through at the time. Ah That ain't that ain't it And me say his touchdown interception ratio is four to eight now the two interceptions last week weren't his fault So it should have been four to six still bad And I would have to actually go through each Interception that he threw to really and the one the one that the the Browns linebacker caught where it Terrence West just mistimed it. I wouldn't really call that one his fault either But still Yes, Larry steed you all right. That's a that's a great way to put to answer my boy statics question Um Where'd he go where'd he go where'd he go where'd he go? Oh Larry steed said great quarterbacks make wide receivers. That is true because I mean you look at Tom Brady He You're gonna tell me that Well over Perryman year, but you're gonna tell me that Jeremy Macklin is Not better than Chris Hogan like You're not you're not gonna tell me Jerry Macklin is not better than Chris Hogan or better than a Amondola like But great quarterbacks do make great receivers But Flacco will again rely on receivers to make quick catches and protection to not blow gaps going into Minnesota Flacco does have the ability Flacco got all the ability in the world, man He got all of the auto ability in the world all of it All of it Flacco got all the ability in the world, but sometimes you just feel like it's he don't got this up here It looks like it It's it seems like it it seems like everything ain't up here clicking everything that's up there isn't clicking all the time With when like I always say when he gets into the playoffs. Oh, it clicks it clicks it clicks for regular season It's clicker stops Flacco's a quarterback that uses weapons. Well, he has never made Mediocre players better Ozzy failed in building the offense to sue Flacco. Let me read that again Flacco is a quarterback that uses weapons. Well, he has never made He has never made mediocre players better Ozzy failed in building the offense to sue Flacco You can't expect anybody to be Tom Brady and not that I'm expecting him to be Tom Brady, but if If you're gonna take on if you're gonna take on this level of responsibility this amount of responsibility And being a franchise quarterback You should you should be making these guys around you better. You should be You should be We have a West Coast offense and Flacco is a vertical offense quarterback, but Travisky may please Travisky, he didn't really have to make too many plays on I was about to say Saturday on Sunday He really had to do too much on Saturday. I mean, I said I just said I was about to say and I said it anyway He had to do too much on Sunday because they were just running running running running running running running running running running But when he did have to make his throws, he made some Especially I think the best though is the best throw he made all game was the very last one The one where the guy caught it over the dare you swim That was the best throw because he faced pressure He stayed there He's he faced pressure moved around in the pocket a little bit got it out. Boom. That was it Going into the season Ravens biggest edition on offense with a 32 year old injury prone running back and he's definitely injury prone because he's out right now That's a problem Yes. Oh, yeah, you're right You're right. They um a lot of people got on Baltimore about their draft this year Because they drafted defense heavy defense heavy. I don't think they even drafted a receiver at all They drafted defense heavy heavy Because they said they wanted to get a younger faster defense Now defense last year Was nice Their defense last year did that thing Excuse me The defense last year did their thing, but the offense offense has been a a Franchise problem for Baltimore The offense has been a franchise problem for Baltimore So it ain't been a problem just this year last year over the course of the entire franchise Offense has been a problem for the majority of the time now when when Flacco When Flacco Had the Ray Lewis had the Lodi nada had the younger Tarell Suggs had the air read had the bar Scott had had all those guys When their defense was their defense And and it could be I don't like I don't like this being a reason But now that I think about it now that I really think about it It could have really been that maybe back then when they had those more high-profile guys even on defense What's up strongly came like Ray Lewis air read maybe those guys maybe those more outspoken guys Maybe Flacco needs more people like that in that locker room to get to him because right now the only guy We have like that a Tarell Suggs and that's it That's it That's it because remember before we had a we had a Ray Lewis We had a air read we had a Tarell Suggs to we had a bar Scott We had all these dudes that run run their mouth so much We had all these all these dudes that run run it Bernard Pollard We had all these dudes that talked that talk and it could be possible I don't like thinking about this, but it could be possible that maybe Flacco or maybe they just the entire team Maybe Harbaugh himself too. Maybe they need somebody to go against the grain to really get to them Maybe they need somebody that'll be outspoken. Oh and Juan Bolton too, but Harbaugh didn't like that about none He didn't like that He did not like that if you were outspoken player Harbaugh did not like that and they mentioned it so many times You can go back to interviews from Harbaugh himself. He said it before you can go interviews air read They always taught and they always talk about this one in particular Meeting during the Super Bowl year Well, they stay calling it a mutiny. I think I forgot what they said about it But they said air read and Harbaugh. They said they used to always get into it Suggs I think Harbaugh said he ended up moving Suggs locker something like that. It's a lot of that stuff, man It's a lot of that stuff but Hey Is what it is. But anyway, we got way off topic. We start talking about other stuff Really quick steady say that's what I'm saying Ozzie isn't drafting the balance of the team the Ravens are a different team now I'm just still stuck in the Ray Lewis area. You got to get flackle skill players to work with It was after we lost to Houston. It was a close the close team meeting Players only know hogs next year. We'll see what we have in the young guys Ryan Jensen gotta be Say Ryan Jensen gotta be the offensive motivation, man. Also Ray Rice beat up his wife. Where that come from, man Where they come from that man that we had like I always said we haven't had a running back since like Ray Rice since Ray Rice, man. Oh Yeah, we do play Texans this year money night football That game is not looking good right now. It is not looking good right now because the Sean Watson is not scared I love the fact that that dude loves taking shots downfield That's the flackle that I miss That dude is not afraid to take shots downfield not afraid But Yeah, man, so back to the question it is hardball in the hot seat. I think he already is You say let's talk about Tony Jensen being capable of covering tight ends. Oh Boy, yeah, we could talk we could talk about stuff forever, man But again back back to what I said is hardball in the hot seat I definitely think he is definitely think he is definitely definitely definitely We're that hot seat get cooler. I hope it will I hope it freezes That would mean the team is doing great. I hope it freezes But Do I see it happening? I don't know man. I Don't know. I don't know what to think about this team. It's like every game. I just hope I just hope That's all you can do It's not in all control Yeah, really quick Harry say y'all need to start with the excuses flackle has no receivers flackle has no protection the play calling It's bad. No flackle has poor mechanics makes poor decision and it's just downright logic Hmm. Oh It's morning. Hey gonna hot seat. I think he is too. I think he is too especially if the offense doesn't improve When do we have a bye week? I gotta see when we have a bye week, but yeah, I think he's definitely on there, but um Yeah, man, this only way it freezes a week free Need to blow up the entire offense Hey, yeah off all season all offense. I can see that happening. Look at the Eagles man. Look what the Eagles did Look what the Eagles did Eagles when I was watching that I was watching that game and I saw a mix of Eagles drafting And free agency and what it did to this offense now they drafted Fletcher Cox Derek Barnett. I believe they drafted to But they drafted Carson Wentz They drafted Nelson Aguilera. How long has Nelson Aguilera been in league two years Carson Wentz been in one So they drafted Nelson Aguilera the year before Carson Wentz So they draft they drafted him drafted Carson Wentz and then free agency Got the Garrett Blunt Got Tori Smith got out Sean Jeffrey Boy, no, I know Fletcher Cox is a vet, but I'm saying they drafted him He was wondering he was somebody that they they originally drafted, but more so on the offense side. Let's stay on the offense side so they um They quickly Got that offense right and it took two years Two years and it's still some other free agents that they got like they got Darren Sprouls who had came from New Orleans Oh, yeah, Lane Johnson the guy who keeps getting suspended though. They got him to the Eagles it That it did take them a couple of years, but over these past two years they got it right both in the draft and with free agency Now what they said they don't have a quarterback taking up on a cap room either Yeah, they also didn't have that quarterback win the Super Bowl. So it's like I said with the contract is tough. It's tough Now I don't I didn't agree with the forty four million dollars that I didn't agree with that I appreciate that Brenda, but with them paying him you have to agree with that because like I said, he went He went out and won them a Super Bowl He went out. He went out and won them a Super Bowl. So you got to pay him for that, but I Got it. I got to get going. I'm sorry to cut it off like that, but um, I got to get going man This was fun as it always is I appreciate y'all like always do sorry that I had to cut it off in the middle of this But this was a lot of fun. We're gonna continue talking about this stuff later on Probably tomorrow if not later on tonight because I love these conversations with y'all.
