 What's one trade package that would be so bittersweet because it would hurt, but it would help the Ravens all at the same time. What do you think the biggest difference from last year and this year is with Ravens QB Lamar Jackson? These and many, many more questions on this episode of NFL Questions from subscribers. So YouTube Team Keep It Clean, what's going on is saying Raven here with another video, another episode of NFL Questions from subscribers and this of course is a series where you can ask me any NFL question you want to based off of any NFL team and we answer in a video just like this. Team Keep It Clean, I love y'all, thank you for supporting all the different things we have been doing recently, especially the podcast, y'all been coming through on the podcast like crazy. So thank you, there will be more guests in the future and I just, we got a lot of plans for a lot of different stuff, but we're just going to have fun, we're going to have a lot of fun and just enjoy the ride, man. I appreciate y'all, thank you for supporting, just thank you, straight up, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, and this is one of the ways that I say thank you to Team Keep It Clean by letting you be the ones that get to pick what we talk about for these videos because these are questions from subscribers. These aren't questions that I made up, these are questions from Team Keep It Clean. So let's get into it. Oh, and make sure you check out the description because the description got literally everything in there. But anyway, first question of this video came from my guy Dennis G. He said, what's up, Raven? What's up, Dennis? What's going on, man? He said, what's the big game on Monday night against the Chiefs coming up? Do you expect that after a streak of 14 consecutive regular season wins and increased self-confidence both of the players and the coaches will have a positive effect on the decision making? Love your channel and greetings from Germany. Hey, appreciate it, Dennis. Thank you, man. Oh, that is a question right there. Oh, yeah, I forgot about that because I know they mentioned it during the games and stuff, but I hadn't even thought about that after the game, that the Ravens have won 14 regular season games in a row. But last year at the same time, it's a cool little record to have or whatever, but this is a brand new season. Now I did see something on Twitter just a little while ago and it was saying that the Ravens, let me find it, the Ravens are under hardball in home primetime games. So there's home regular season games that happen in primetime. They are 14 and 1 since 2008. 14 and 1. Now they don't get many home primetime games, but when they do get them, they show out. And the NFL is usually like, you know what, man, these Ravens always win in primetime home games. So you know what, we ain't even gonna hardly give them any. But Ravens, they care business at home in primetime. But that's crazy. 14 and 1. So they've lost one and that one was to the Steelers. I wish I would have known that before I did my game prediction for this one. That may have changed my prediction. But anyway, regardless, I just think, I don't even think that the streak of 14 consecutive regular season games that they won and an increased self-confidence, both of the players and coaches will have a positive effect on their decision making. I just think them wanting to beat the Chiefs because you know, you know they want to beat the Chiefs. We know they want to beat the Chiefs because under little more, they still haven't done it. They still haven't done it. Not yet. They will eventually, but they still haven't done it yet. Can that eventually be this Monday? Well, decision making. If they're going to win this Monday, decision making is going to be a huge part of it. Because in the last Chiefs game, not even necessarily in the first one, but in the last Chiefs game, there was some bad decision making in that one. There was some pretty bad decision making in that one. And just the way that that game was just, the play calling, I wasn't a fan of the play calling much. They didn't start running the ball to the second half of the game. Them going for two on that open and drive touchdown, it was just, why? Why? I don't expect anybody to be perfect, a game calling, a game coaching and whatever would be perfect, but still, put your guys in a position to win. And Monday, I hope that they do that. Guys got to execute. Everybody got to do their job on Monday. Now, I know somebody mentioned in the comment section, they said, oh, this is the Raven Super Bowl right here. Well, no, it's not the Raven Super Bowl. Tampa will be the Raven Super Bowl, but this is a big game. This is a big game. Because this is a game that's going to just, the world is watching. The world is watching. Everybody's at home. It's Monday night football, prime time, and you at the crib. Oh, yeah, it's a shame that no fans could be there, but it's all good. The coaching, I mean, decision-making is going to be huge in this one, and hopefully it will have a positive effect, just, hopefully everything, hopefully just them wanting to win enough will have a positive effect on decision-making in this one. So I appreciate you, Dennis. Thank you, man. Next question came from my boy, RickyD1980. He said, what's up in Raven? I saw your latest video on the Chiefs and Ravens, but my question is why? You didn't mention Chiefs struggling against a rookie QB, LOL. You got Chiefs winning. We'll see about that. KK going for 150 yards, rushing, Ravens win by 10. You know, that's interesting, because I didn't take that into account when I did do my Ravens and Chiefs prediction video. Now, of course, every game is different. Every game is different. And with Justin Herbert, he did, he took them literally past the wire, shout out to be more, but he took them past the wire because it wasn't down to the wire. It was past it because they went to overtime. And Chiefs got that super long field goal by what, but I think that's his name. I forget what his name is, but they got that super long field goal and they ended up winning in overtime. But yeah, that rookie QB gave them everything that they could handle. Sound familiar? The Chiefs winning an overtime game against a rookie QB that they're playing for the first time and they win on a field goal in overtime. Does it sound familiar at all? Kind of does to me. But anyway, that is a good point. And I did see the Stat 2 that said the Chiefs combined in the first two games, they've missed 29 tackles. And the only team that's missed more than that is the Jets. And Jets are a mess. So Chiefs defense, they apparently got some issues tackling those ball carriers. Now, even though I did pick the Chiefs to win this one. And like I said in the video, I hope that I'm wrong. Like I said in the video, it could obviously go either way. Like I said in the video, I want the Ravens to win. But I just, this game could go, it could go all kinds of ways, man. It could go all kinds of ways. Some people thinking that it's going to be a blowout. Because the Chiefs play the Texans, the offense hasn't been all that. And they also play the Chargers, who the offense hasn't been all that either. Now they do have some nice receivers over there and you've got Mike Williams, you've got Kenan Allen. I'm not sure how they did in that game because I didn't get to watch the whole thing. I only got to watch the very end. But Ravens, yeah, they got just as much a chance as anybody. They got just as much of a chance to win as a Chiefs too. But yeah, Chiefs, a lot of Chiefs fans have told me that defense has been struggling a bit. It's been a little rough over there. So, I mean, we'll see. We'll see. And Lamar, he said, yeah, why didn't you mention them struggling against a rookie QB? And Lamar, of course, he's no rookie. This is his third year in NFL, second year starting from jump. And he's obviously done a lot. And this is a big game. And you know, this is a big game for him too. He may not want to say it publicly, but you know, he think like, oh, money, night football. Oh, you know, black, oh, I'm going against Patrick Mahomes. I'm so tired of getting compared to this dude. Let's show him. Let's show him the differences. So it's going to be a fun game. It should be a great game. And hopefully Ravens do everything that they can and end up being successful in coming that on top. Next question came from my guy, Garrett H. He said, hello, engraving. Hello. He said, I hope you and your family are doing well. Appreciate it, man. Two questions. Number one, do you have any concerns about the long term of the defensive line? Um, well, if you mean long term, like years, I don't think we can really say that. But long term, like I'm thinking you really mean this season. Run defense. No, I just in pass rush. Yeah. A little bit. Yeah, I do. Um, I just, we got so much strength, but they just, I don't know. We just got to see, man. I don't, from, from what I've seen so far, I would definitely have concerns with the pass rush, but it is still early. So I'm hoping that that's what the case is. I'm hoping that it's like, okay, maybe we just need a little bit of time in the jail and just get accustomed to each other. I'm hoping that that's it. Maybe Matt BK, uh, maybe when he comes through, uh, he will give us some, this crazy spark, this crazy rookie spark because he's been hurt, but now he's trying to work his way back. Maybe that's been the missing piece to the pass rush. I don't know, man, but whatever it is, they, we need something. And then he said, number two, after watching the first two games and shows that Jude on isn't worth resigning. Here's why we have the monstars Campbell and Wolf, uh, don't forget about big baby Brandon Williams. And then he said with Bowser and big baby, however, uh, Jude on has barely gotten to the quarterback. I'm not a huge fan of Jude on. So that's probably why I'm so critical. Um, yeah, well, Jude on is, it's been, it's been a quiet start. It's been a quiet start, but hey, let's, let's give it time and hope that it picks up. This is a, this is a perfect chance for Jude on to earn a lot of money to, to start earning a lot of money because he's going to get paid. Um, I don't think the Ravens are going to end up resigning him. Not because he's some bad player that they couldn't use, but I just think the, with all the money in the contracts that they got coming up, I just think is Jude on is going to be going somewhere else. And it was funny, the wording that he used, um, in one of the press conferences, and I forgot exactly what he said, but it was something that he said when he was speaking about, um, Lamar Jackson, I think. And it wasn't a shot at Lamar Jackson, it wasn't a shot at anybody, but it just, the wording that he used made it seem like, okay, he knows that that's, this is it for him with the Ravens this year. It sounds, that's what it sounded like to me. Um, I forgot what the, I forgot the exact wording that he used though. Um, but anyway, I just, I, like I said, I just think, I don't think they're going to end up resigning him. I think he's going to be one of the people that they don't end up keeping, um, just cause they, they got a lot. Like it is, if they did keep them, it'd be possible, of course, but it's, they got a lot of money to go around. They got a lot of contracts to give out. And then with the, uh, with the salary cap possibly going down next season, that makes it eat that much harder. So anyway, and he said, um, oh, also your vids are what gets me through the day during these boy, during these boy online classes. I keep up the good work and go Ravens. Appreciate it, Garrett. Thank you, man. I appreciate that. But anyway, with Jude on, like I said, let's, let's give it some time and see what happens though. Let's see what happened. But like I said, this, this could be a very, very, this could be a time. This could be a game where Jude on could make a lot of money playing on money. Not every, like, like I said, literally everybody's watching. This is chiefs in Ravens, man. This was a team that last year that a lot of people thought were going to the Superbowl and it's a team that last year actually did go to the Superbowl and win it. These are two quarterbacks that everybody's always talking about. They are becoming the face of the NFL. So, hey, must see TV and this, this is a chance for a lot of guys coming up on contracts for them to make some money. Next question came from a guy, Raven Pratt. He said, what's going on in Graven? Hope everything is well with you in the family. Thank you, man. You said, I have a question for you about Sunday game against the Texans. I see that our defense has some trouble with Ms. Tackles and get into the quarterback. We did our thing Sunday against Houston, but we could have done a better job. We got KC Monday night. What do we have to improve to get a victory over KC? Keep doing your thing with the podcast and the live stream. Thank you, Raven Pratt. I appreciate that, man. To be KC Raven just got to play that game. They got score touchdowns, score touchdowns and just really wrap up. Because the thing with KC, like I said, I didn't get to watch the game last week against the Chargers, only the very, very end. But the thing that I saw from the Texans against the Chiefs that really, and it was the first game of the season. So it could have been jitters. It could have been just not being in a normal routine or whatever. But one of the biggest things that I saw was people not wrapping up. They weren't wrapping up in case he was getting so much yards after the catch. And that's so dangerous because everybody on that team is fast. Everybody. So if you don't wrap one of those guys up and they get yards after the catch, they could easily get an extra 15, 20 yards, man, just based off of their speed alone. So that's one of the biggest things that Ravens have to do. Like I said, Ravens got to score touchdowns and they like they they got to score touchdowns. If you're trying to have one of these defense of field, go field, go field, go field, go game. No, no, because I expect them to be able to contain the Chiefs but not stop the Chiefs. Chiefs going to score some points. They're going to score some points. I mean, hopefully they don't score any points. That'd be nice if they got a fat zero on a scoreboard. I wouldn't mind that at all. But they most likely going to score some points. So and just stop the big place, stop the big place and like we all know, they got to get out to Patrick Mahomes early to early. Don't let him get in the red. You got to get half to him like from jump from the beginning. You need to mess up his his QB clock, the clock on his head. You need to mess it up, make him think that he has less time than he does. So pass rush is so important that they go hand in hand with the second. There is oh, they got to be ready, man. They got to be ready and coaching as far as coaching. Don't come out there with your chest out. Don't try to be Mr. Big Shot. Just play a game, man. Play a game. Treat it like treat it like a big moment, but not too big of a moment. Just just go do your thing, man. And don't get too pretty. Next question came from my guy, Ma. He said, yo, what's up in gravy, man? Hey, you've been so on point between the podcast and the YouTube content, bro. I ain't been eating ESPN Sports Center or none of that. Get all the inside schools straight from team. Keep it clean. Free, I appreciate you, man. Thank you for listening and watching. So I thank you for that, man. He said, LOL, seriously though, man, much respect for being an example out here of how you can lead a conversation about sports without cursing or hating on anybody. Hey, that's special, man. That's really special to me, man. That's very special to me because that's very important to me. And just very important to everything that we do on here. Like team keeping clean. It's team keeping clean. So I seriously appreciate that, man. Seriously. And even with, yeah, without cursing, without hating on anybody, too, because it's no sense in hating on anybody, man. It ain't no sense that what does hating on anybody accomplish for anybody? Nothing. So that's why I ain't no point in doing that, man. He said, so my question is, how do you compare the playing styles of Kyla Murray and Lamar Jackson? Like, do you think Kyla Murray can start to have the success Lamar has had as far as a potential MVP or winning his division? Well, I definitely think that. And one of the biggest reasons I think that Kyla Murray has a potential to possibly win an MVP and win his division is because of the way that, because of what's around him, because of the weapons that they put around him. Like, they really got this guy taken care of, man. They really got him taken care of. You got Larry Fitzgerald. You got De'Andre Hopkins the best receiver in the game. You got Kirk, you got weapons, man. You have legitimate weapons. So with that being said, they put him in such a good position where he ain't got no choice but to succeed. He got no choice. No choice. Like, you got receivers with some of the best hands in the league, man. Larry Fitzgerald, he don't drop the ball. De'Andre Hopkins, he don't hardly drop the ball. Like, those dudes, they are legitimate past catchers. And, man, they got this dude set up right, man. So, yes, he can definitely have some success, man, because of what's the situation that the Cardinals put him in. And he said, do you think Lamar will be highly successful in the Cliff Kingsbury air race system where everything is shotgun and spread out? Or do you think Kyla will thrive more in Greg Roman's power run past option style offense? Ooh, I think both of them could succeed in either one. Reason being is because with Kyla Murray, the way he's able to take up, like, he's so quick, man. And he's so small, he's like low to the ground, but he's so fast, man. When he runs, it's, it's, that's it. He literally takes off like that. And so in the Greg Roman offense, oh, yeah, he'll be able to eat. He'll be able to eat. And he can make people miss, too. Ooh, he'll be able to eat. And Lamar in the Cliff Kingsbury offense, with that, with that air raid, with them spreading it out, he's, I mean, he's in shotgun and pistol all the time anyway. But so that he would already be comfortable doing that. But then with that spread offense, that's Lamar all day from his rookie year. And I mean, from college too, but from his rookie, that playoff game, they doing a read-off and read-off. RPO, RPO, RPO is not working all game. Then all of a sudden they spread it out. Boom, what happens? Offense wakes up, Lamar wakes up. We score touchdowns. So it's, both of them will be able to succeed in either system, man. And then he said, I'm just curious, what your perspective is on this, just because now with another potential polarizing dual threat quarterback coming up in the ranks, people might stop doubting Lamar or doubting how sustainable that style of play is with more teams going to this type of prospect to run their offense. That's a good point. It's still gonna be those people that just wanna still hold on to that whole sustainable thing. Now you didn't know how people are. They just don't wanna let go. They just don't wanna be like, you know what? That's my bad. I was wrong. My apologies, I was wrong. I said it wouldn't last. I said he wasn't sustainable. I said he's gonna get hurt. My apologies, I was wrong. A lot of people don't like doing that, but it is what it is. So anyway, hope this wasn't too long, man. Keep up the good work. You're doing much better than a lot of these big TV anchors. Much respect. I don't know about that part, but. Now I appreciate it Amar. Thank you a lot for that, man. Whoa, my God. Crab cakes 52. Wow, that's been a little minute, man. How you doing? You know what's up in Graven? I always love the up to date content on Ravens in the entire league. Appreciate it, man. He said, this is my first question, although I watch all the time. Real quick, tell me what you think about the Ravens putting together a package that includes a pick, a third, a third round pick, and Gus Edwards for Josh Allen from Jacksonville. Ooh, yeah. He said, I believe he's still on his rookie deal and that's not expensive. Yes, he is. This is what, ain't this his second year? I'm pretty sure that this is his second year, man. Let me just see. Josh Allen, Jag Wars. I'm pretty sure this is his second year. Wow, he's 23 years old. Check him out, man. Let me see. He was drafted. Yep, 2019. So yeah, this is his second year. And he said, I think we need another pass rush despite our need for another corner. Hopefully we can plug in Jimmy and he can stay healthy because Avery out there looking like a prime suspect for butter. Ooh, yikes. Let me know what your thoughts, blessings to you and the fam. Appreciate it, man. That would be nice. It would be like a bittersweet thing because bitter because we'd be getting rid of Gus Edwards and Gus Edwards is the closer, man. He's the closer. Like somebody, I think it was my guy, Tori from Be More. I think he called Gus Edwards the finisher because that's exactly what he's been doing. So it'll be bitter on that part. It'd be like, oh man, Gus Edwards gone. That's our finisher. That's our closer. But then it would be the sweet part would be that we would get Josh Allen a young, hungry, just nice pass rusher, man. Young guy on his rookie deal, only in the second year of his rookie deal. So we would have the second, third, fourth year and the fifth year option. So it wouldn't be no rush to sign him long term because he's already taken care of. He's still on that rookie deal. Now I don't see Jacksonville doing that, but it would be, like I said, a bittersweet thing if that deal happened. Next question came from my boy shadow Badger Cat. He said, would you rather have Lidaria Sweb or Jimmy Smith on your team? Well, given that Lidaria Sweb retired, it'll probably be him. Now, hmm, wow. So I am assuming both healthy, maybe both in the primes. Lidaria Sweb with Jimmy Smith. Let's tell y'all Lidaria, he used to be my favorite player. But if I gotta go prime, I gotta go with Jimmy Smith. I gotta go with Jimmy Smith. They're both healthy too. Cause that's something that they both struggle with throughout their careers was injuries. But I gotta go, I gotta go with Jimmy Smith. The frame, the side, just the physicality, that part, that's the biggest part, the physicality. Cause he can, he could rock with any receiver. He could rock with any receiver. Now with them little shifty receivers, he had a little trouble, but he could rock with any receiver. You put Calvin Johnson out there. Hey, Jimmy taking care of business. You put AJ Green out there. Now, Jimmy's gonna have some struggles, but Jimmy's still gonna make some plays too now. Cause AJ Green is signed about AJ Green, where he would just always go off against the Ravens, whether it's Jimmy Smith with the shocky brown big yikes. Anyway, we ain't gotta get into all that. But I'm going Jimmy Smith just simply because of how physical he was, his size, and just, he, yeah, I'm gonna go Jimmy Smith. Lidaria Sweb, like, I wouldn't be mad at having a prime Lidaria Sweb too now. But yeah, Jimmy Smith, just because of how physical he was, he got that overwebby. Next question came from my boy Travis D. He said, what's going on family? Hope all is well, everything is good. He said, after watching the first couple of weeks of the Ravens games, I noticed the difference in Lamar. Last year, Lamar was smiling and happy a lot, doing his dance moves, air guns, and all that. He still is happy, I believe, but I see a lot more seriousness in him. He seems to really be focused and locked in. It's like he really isn't looking past anyone and worrying about being one and no every week. What do you think? Have you seen a difference? And yeah, I guess we have seen a bit of a difference. And he has been still smiling, like you said, but I do think that is a big part of it. I think that he knows as well as the rest of the Ravens, like, look, we're still gonna have fun. We're gonna have fun, but let's really take care of business and let's really take care of business throughout and we can't let up on anybody. We cannot let up on any single team. And like he said at the Pro Bowl, him and Earl Thomas, you gotta treat every game like it's a Super Bowl, every single one. It gots to have that importance because you can't overlook anybody. You can't look past anybody. And you have to, have to just give that focus and attention to every single opponent or else you're gonna get caught slipping. They got caught slipping in the playoffs and they ain't trying to let that happen again. So I do see a bit of a difference. I see it in just more so personality and a little bit in the game too. A little bit in the game too. There's a lot of times where he just really tries to make the throws and he has been making the throws all across the field, but even when he's had an opportunity to run, he would still, not every time, but he'll still try to make some throws. So with Lamar, yeah, he just seems to be just hungry, man. It seems like he may just be hungrier than ever and he just wants it. I think that's what the biggest difference in him right now is, is that he just really wants it. Next question came from my boy RickyD1980. He said, do you think JK Dobbins should start on week three against Kansas City? Maybe not even start, but just get a good amount of carries. Cause, I mean, Mark Ingram is still the starter and JK, it's just like they spread that ball out so much. It's like Ravens do technically have a starter, Mark Ingram, but I mean, everybody is going to get their share of carries. They spread that ball around. So I wouldn't mind if he started, but I mean, him not starting, it's not a big deal cause he definitely gonna get his touches too. But I think they should really go with, oh, I don't know what that was. I guess the eyelash was on my face or something. Oh, maybe a piece of land. I don't know. But anyway, they should go with the hot hand. Really try to feed their running backs, man. Really try to feed like, look at what David Johnson did. I'm not sure how charges they did in the running game, but feed them running backs and yeah, try to keep the chiefs off the field. And at the same time, scoring points. I mean, scoring touchdowns and getting points. I guess scoring points still makes sense. But yeah, that's what they got to do. So whether J.K. Dobbin starts or not, I don't think it's a big deal. As long as he does get a piece of the pocket.
