 If you know who and how somebody is, then you can't get mad when they show you exactly who they are. Sammy Watkins, I feel for him too, but it should be no surprise. The Packers, they play Sammy Watkins on injured reserve. He's dealing with a hamstring injury. So he'll be out at least the next four games. But this has been a pattern throughout his career, the injuries. Of course Ravens fans all remember last year what Sammy dealt with with the injuries and whatnot. And it's just, that's his pattern. Talented player, could make all the catches in the world, but the injuries just, they always take them out for chunks of the season. So hopefully he can get that all cleared up. But Packers is important because I know they got Watson and Doves and whatnot. So they try to cover it. So we'll see how it works out for them. But this will be an opportunity for the young guys to really get their shine on. Another thing, have y'all played the pro era game on the Oculus? Man, I love it, man. I love it so much, man. Cause I love Madden, Madden's cool. But the pro era, I feel like with the pro era game, it's like, y'all remember what 2K, NFL 2K was trying to do some years ago when they put you in the helmet? But would it be in like virtual reality and you could look all around like, I'm like, I'm playing a game. I'm having fun doing handoffs to JK Dobbins. I'm over here having fun. I'm over here patting my different offensive and climbing on and helping and stuff. I'm like, hey, good job, good protection. I love that game so much. And I ain't even played a regular season game yet. I only played the little intro where you got to complete the pass to Mark Andrews. It took me like four or five tries. And then I did practice mode, but I love it. Oh yeah. And I did some kind of like little throwing challenge too. That game is so much fun. If you ever get a chance to play it, please do. If you got an Oculus Rift, please get it. It's worth it. And it's only like $30, I think. We are not sponsored by them whatsoever. I wish we were, but we're not. But yeah, it's real. Anyway, couple of updates for the Ravens. Ronnie Stanley. Ronnie Stanley is officially out against the New England Patriots. I myself, I thought like, hey, this could be the week. He been practicing for a couple of weeks and whatnot. I'm like, okay, here we go. This could be it. But nope, no Ronnie Stanley yet. And see, the thing about that is that with Ronnie Stanley, John Hall ball, every time he talks about Ronnie Stanley, it's like, it's like what the Eric Acosta did with Lamar Jackson when it came to the contract talks earliest off season. He was like, hey, the ball's in his court. Hey, Lamar knows where to reach me yet. Lamar knows my number. He can give me a call. When he's ready to talk, we'll talk, but the ball's in his court. So Eric Acosta continued to throw it to Lamar Jackson and John Hall ball. Whenever he speaks about Ronnie Stanley, there are a lot of similarities. Same thing. Hey, it's up to him. Whenever he feels like being out there, whenever he feels his best, because he keeps commending him like, hey, he looks like he's in the best shape that he's ever been in. And I'm just like, okay, well, if he looks like he's in the best shape that he's ever been in, but he's still not out there. And not that you want him to rush. Cause again, this dude, his ankle and all that got tore into a million pieces. And it was a process, obviously, because he tried to do the rehab. And he was like, no, no rehab. Then they did the surgery. And this has been an issue with him for a while now, as far as his ankle issue. So you wanna make sure he comes back right, especially, especially since you have so much invested in him. I've seen a lot of different takes from a lot of different Ravens fans on Ronnie Stanley. And I can understand where they're all coming from. Some people are like, hey, he needs to be out there. He's making a lot of money. He needs to be out there on that field. Then other people are like, hey, no, you can't rush him. He is making a lot of money, true, but that's such a big investment. You don't wanna rush that and then end up ruining his career forever. Some people feel like, hey, the Ravens should just bite the bullet, take the dead cap hit and just cut Ronnie Stanley and move on. Then I've seen a lot of people talking about, oh, the Ravens, it's time to start looking at tackles early on in the draft next off season. So it's been a lot of back and forth about Ronnie Stanley, but I was really hoping that this week will be the week where he could eventually, well, he could come back. So we'll wait, maybe the Bills game will be it. We'll see, but Ronnie Stanley is so tricky, man. It's very tricky and it's one of those things we just don't know. And like we always talk about, we won't know until we know, until we actually see him trying out there. Now, somebody else who I also thought was gonna play this Sunday, even if it was in limited fashion, JPP, Jason Pierre Paul. Jason Pierre Paul, it was announced that the Ravens signed him to a one a year, was it a 4.5, I mean a $5.5 million deal, total I think, I think it's 5.5 million, but whatever it is, it's like the base of the deal is like 1.5 million, something like that. And then the incentives are like 4 million. I think it's like 5.5 million, somewhere around there. But that's obviously a lot of incentives. And again, we explained about the incentives, how that works. I'm sure it's gonna be a number of sacks, maybe playing time, something like that. But if he hits those incentives, hey, great, that means good job, good job, JPP. If he doesn't hit the incentives, then it makes the deal like closer, a lot closer to the 1.5 million. So that's that. But he is not officially a Raven yet. So he will not be playing in this Patriots game. The Ravens, they did announce the signing, but they announced the signing pending a physical. So as long as he passes the physical, then he should be good to go. Now, I remember when I first saw that announcement from Ravens, I said, ooh, okay, you gonna announce this even pending a physical? He ain't passed the physical yet. And it just reminded me of Zadaria Smith. So I made sure I tweeted that to Ravens fans, so I could give them that nice reminder to Zadaria Smith, even though the actual Ravens themselves, they never announced the Zadaria Smith deal. Cause you know, with free agency, that's the annoying period where you, the reporters, they announced the deals, but the teams don't officially announce the deals until actual free agency starts. It is, and I don't really like using this word, but it is probably the dumbest thing in free agency. Oh, we're gonna do a legal, a legal tampering period for two days. And then after that, then free agency officially start. It's like, what is the point? There's no point in the legal tampering period. That, there's no point in that at all. It's like, oh, we're gonna give these guys, these guys can come and agree to deals with teams, but they can't sign them yet. They're not official yet. They can't sign them yet. So maybe we'll give them a couple of days to decide if they really wanna go. It's just, it doesn't make any sense at all. Like none. But anyway, and JK Dobbins, JK Dobbins is another one. John Harbaugh, very iffy on JK Dobbins status. He was very non-committal on JK Dobbins status. Felt like he was trolling a little bit on JK Dobbins status. But if I had to guess, I would think he would play. I mean, we'll find out tomorrow at 1130. But yeah, if I had to guess, I would think that this would be where he plays. But if he doesn't, then I don't know. Then I won't know what's going on with JK. I mean, I don't know what's going on with JK Dobbins. But you would think like, all right, it's like, it's week three. And it's like, all right, Raven's a one in one. No reason to panic or anything yet. But there were a little couple of opportunities in the run game that they missed because of running backs, because there was a little lack of vision, a little bit. But it's like, you wanna get that guy out there, man. And I understand, I know last year, how about he been saying, hey, last year don't got nothing to do with, how we doing stuff that, yeah, okay. Yeah, all right. But I know last year scarred Ravens, but with JK Dobbins, it's like, if he's ready, he's ready. And you ain't gotta have him out there the whole game. You can just ease him back in and start easing him back in. He's not on injured reserve. So you obviously felt some type of way about his recovery. He's been practicing in full, not limited. So that's that. That's where it starts. So, all right, let's get it. And it wouldn't be rushing him because you ain't playing the first two games. So, might as well. But anyway, so that's that. So no JPP, no Ronnie Stanley, and with JK Dobbins, status is up in the air. So team keeping clean. I love y'all, appreciate y'all and we out.
