First question came from my guy jrgweb he said what's your favorite memory of Raven versus Steelers? I will always love Tori Smith after dropping a TD on Sunday football then catching the game winning touchdown on that same drive I think in Pittsburgh. Hope all is well. Greg from Be More. Yeah mines is that same one. It's that same one and the reason that it's the same one is because for the longest Ravens just they had an asterix every time they beat the Steelers before that game because first it was that they couldn't beat the Steelers then it was they couldn't beat the Steelers with Big Ben in the lineup as a starter then they couldn't beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh with Big Ben as a starter in the lineup and then it was just always something man but that was the game where it was no excuses it was no Big Ben he played in the game he started and finished the whole game and the the Ravens finally got that monkey off of their back and I think that was huge because in the first game of the season they blew the Steelers out I think like 35 to seven and I think they they had they forced seven turnovers in that game like it was just crazy man but it was oh it was I remember that game watching it on opening week I was at a sports balls in Brew's room and man it was just fun anyway um with the Ravens and the Steelers that would be my favorite memory too because it was just them getting over the hump and that let me know like okay these dudes they can do it next question came from Tamaris J she said I ain't graven hope all is well with you and the fam really enjoyed the video because you keep a realistic view of the team that being said I have an unpopular opinion who these are always funny she said the Ravens don't need to go out and get a superstar wide receiver I know that is the sexy thing to do and everyone wants to be like Kansas City but that is not the philosophy of this team here's the order I think they should go before the trade deadline she said number one offensive line mainly right guard I know you talked about this already if the line plays better than the run game is better which allows for more play action to help our wide receivers get open so yeah that was um before they started making moves well they made a move for unique um this was one that I felt like was the most important thing was fixing that offensive line now I didn't really envision them trading for an offensive lineman because I think they'll roll with what they got but I think this is the most important move that needs to be made is fixing that offensive line and what I think the Ravens are gonna do is just end up waiting it out and hopefully Tyree Phillips is fully healthy I know he's expected to play this week um so they oh they're gonna be trying to mess with that rookie's head Steelers are gonna be throwing everything at him and the Ravens offensive line so this is going to be I know that they are their most recent video their hype video with baptism by fire so this is definitely gonna be there for Tyree Phillips uh number two she said tighten I think this pic will kind of fix the line play plus pass catching I mean LJ had three tight ends last year and you saw the numbers yeah he you know he loves the tight ends because this can help uh it's an extra offense of lineman potentially um it's an extra pass catcher like you said and it can make the offense look a bit less predictable so that's a good one too and number three one that I haven't been talking about enough but there is a sort of need there is db most of the teams that are looking to go to the playoffs outside of the Titans have three good wide receivers and a tight end I think we will need more help especially with Jimmy playing more snaps and his injury history that's a good point because you never want to go into a season thinking oh man what if this guy gets hurt what if that guy gets hurt but at the same time you gots to be ready for that you got to be ready for it and with jimmy smith we know how it goes he's been hurt a lot he's missed a lot of games throughout the entirety of his career due to injury um and some suspension too but mostly due to injury uh and now he's older so injuries don't get better with age now he's been fine so far he has been a little banged up but you it's good to stay ready and then she said sorry this is so long but I'm a little all I'm a little over all the ghost sign insert big name wire see for here even if we did they would not put up numbers because of g-roll uh he is not known for airing it out plus we might um we might move on from him anyway since his history shows he is only good with mobile quarterbacks for two years or so keep doing what you're doing man and go ravens and hashtag team keep it clean appreciate it Tamaris um and yeah I was just talking I was on a podcast with uh east west podcast network um just last night and we were talking about the same thing I was like I said it's crazy because with g-roll yeah it's been usually he gets a good a good two years out of the quarterback in the system and then after that a kind of flat lines and he had Tyrone Taylor it happened there he had Colin Kaepernick and but the thing with him is that one thing that I found very interesting is that he's had success with those guys he's had success with Tyrone and Kaep and obviously Lamar Jackson but he's never been promoted to being a head coach just something to think about next question came from my guy Cody he said I'm a new subscriber and this is my first question from subs so although the ravens have a lot of raw talent on their roster they've been making moves for a lot of veteran players and our team is pretty old in general what does the future of the ravens roster look like as some of the guys like Kaleas and Ingram start to regress uh can't wait for the next episode appreciate you man I appreciate you Cody thank you um I think the future of the roster to me uh Mark Ingram gone Jimmy Smith gone Levine gone Jude on gone uh Kaleas Campbell depending on how this season goes I think that'll determine what happens with Kaleas Campbell Ravens when the Superbowl I think Kaleas Campbell he's gone I think he retires the Superbowl champion and he's out but if they don't they will but if they didn't then I think he will come back another year so a Kaleas camp there whoo that one's um I think that one's on the fence right now that one's on the fence uh some other older players um they have LJ Fort for this year because they gave him a one-year contract extension so uh depending on how they feel about Malik Harris I really like LJ Fort I don't want him to go anywhere really um but I think due to the business side I think they would they could end up going with their young boys um and who else we got on offensive side Matt Scurra I think he's going I think he'll cash out elsewhere we also have there's Bryant that's still up in the air I think a lot just depends on how he does when he does come in the game whenever that's going to be um Willie Snead he's going after this year uh DJ Fluca oh now that Ronnie Stanley is resigned I think that DJ Fluca he could be going after this year um depending on what happened with Ronnie Stanley I thought DJ Fluca may have a chance to stay but I think he'll probably be going um and that's oh RG3 I think he'll be going after this year as well so I think a lot a lot of things on the Ravens are going to change from this year to next but that's how every season is every season you do have some veteran players that they get up there a little old in the tooth or whatnot um but you need that you you need veterans because yeah your team could be super young and whatnot but you need that experience too you need that leadership and that's exactly what veterans provide so Ravens they just need to continue to do a good job of mixing the young talent uh with the veterans as well next question came from my guy Anthony L he said with our passing attack being ranked 31st in the league how much do you think Dez can contribute assuming that and hoping that he'll be on the active roster pretty soon well it just uh it just all depends man it depends on uh what they're gonna do it it depends on how they're gonna use them and it just depends on if Lamar is going to be looking for him I think Lamar is almost forced to look for Dez Brian because Dez Brian is gonna be there underneath he's gonna be underneath guy yeah I don't see him going out deep you never know though you never know because he's gonna be hungry man he is going to be hungry man so with Dez Brian but his attitude not a I'm not saying I'm not saying he has a bad attitude but his attitude his demeanor is going to cause Lamar to have to pass him the ball and his just his presence and this is a good thing there this is a good thing and this is not him being a me me me receiver because I mean he really ain't got no choice uh we're in doing that because this is like kind of his last chance but at the same time he's a guy that's been there he's a guy that's done that so he can give Lamar a safety blanket he can give Lamar somebody that he can trust he can give Lamar somebody that's going to fight for him this guy like Dez Brian is really going to fight for Lamar because he this is his job man this is his career getting back on track so of course he's gonna have this quarterback's back and this is one of the teams that he wanted this to go down with y'all remember when we when he picked out those teams he said if he could come back he would pick either the Patriots or the Saints or the Ravens and there was one more team I forgot who that other team was but the thing that stood out to me when he picked those teams as teams that he would want to play for again I think maybe it was the Cowboys or something like that but the thing that stuck stuck out to me was that this was Tom Brady because he was on the Patriots at the time this was Drew Brees and if the Cowboys were that other team I don't remember for sure but if it was it was Dak Prescott but these were guys who were established in the league and Dez Brian also put Lamar Jackson in with those guys not necessarily saying that Lamar was on those guys level but he put Lamar Jackson with those guys as guys he would want to play with so that really stood out to me about Dez Bryant when he had said that a little while back so Dez he's gonna just bring a lot of energy on this team he's gonna he's gonna bring it man because he has that energy because he's been waiting for this moment for so long and the thing about Dez Bryant which he brings to this team he's a guy that initially it may be a tiny tiny bit but I think he'll get over it fast but the moment won't be too big for him because he's been he obviously hasn't had a lot of playoff success but he got a lot of experience man he got a lot of experience in the NFL so with the other receivers sometimes it can seem like the moment is too big for them sometimes because sometimes they tend to fade in the big moments like Mark Andrews in a big games it's like hey what what's going on and that's not a shot at Mark Andrews at all and there's no disrespect to him but that's just how it's been and in the in the big games a lot of these guys they just they disappear and then some of them they disappear and just in other games too so we cannot have that especially in big games so Dez Bryant brings that energy and brings that passion and brings that that competitive nature that the Ravens need so it'll be fun so as far as what he can contribute oh he can contribute plenty and those are just some of the things but as far as on the field he gives Lamar somebody that um he's had some drop issues now so let's not let's not forget that but he's also a playmaker as well he's been a playmaker but he brings somebody that just will hold hold the other receivers accountable and it can help the other receivers and hold itself accountable too but we just need that his his just that demeanor man we're missing it and he said uh do you think Lamar will eventually have the same chemistry with Dez as he does with Hollywood and Andrews well if Dez Bryant gets open in Lamar's season yeah I think so but it's gonna be a work in progress I don't expect things to be oh man they they just clicking right out the gate I mean we would love that I would love that y'all would love that we would all love it but they just gotta find ways to get Dez involved early so he can get any jitters out and then get back in a groove of things so he can take that first hit so he can break that first tackle so he can get all the first out the way they gotta get him involved early so he's not out there cold so he can get hot early on and when he's catching more and more passes that confidence getting built up then it'd be nice to get that old dez back next question came from my guy el horsey he said engraving I start most of my days off with the youtube vids uh I'm a subscriber and follow you on facebook as well I love your work bro I appreciate it man and I do I remember seeing when I first signed up for facebook I remember seeing you a lot on there so I appreciate you big time man thank you for that uh and he said my question is from your perspective what do you think our most pressing need is after getting uh Yannick and Gakwe uh as for me I'm thinking right God thanks for all you're doing keep up the good work bro appreciate it man uh Raymond's most pressing need right now after Yannick uh yeah I I agree I think it's taking care of that offensive line um really just better play from the interior of the offensive line because I don't anticipate them trading for anybody but getting better play from their interior offensive line main mainly Matt scorer and Tyree Phillips just the the center in the guard position um they just both of them have to be better uh so again hopefully after this buy week they've been looking at some things they've been correcting some things making some adjustments here and there um because they they both got the size to do it they got the smart they got the ability to do it they just gotta click they just got a gel they just gotta put it together on the field so that would be uh what I think is the Raven's most pressing need at this moment next question came from a guy phenomenal hustle sports uh and this is a popular question amongst team keeping clean some that we've uh uh dabbled in dabbled in over the past couple of months but certainly as the season has been going the way that it's been going we talked about a little bit more uh and he said what's up in Graven love the channel bro hope all is well appreciate it man he said the question I have is do you think we should move Boykin to tight end he blocks really well and is a solid pass catcher that will bring back those three tight end sets and also open up more playing time for Devin Duvenay thanks again bro and team keep it clean so yeah again I I would not I don't anticipate them making a permanent move for Miles Boykin but I certainly wouldn't mind it at all uh Miles Boykin of course we know what he can do we we know what Miles Boykin can do especially as a blocker um but if he was a tight end then I think he would be guaranteed to get all the catches that he's not getting right now because you know he would be around the middle of the field a lot more often and Lamar loves them tight ends he loves them tight ends so yeah this would give the Ravens a chance to continue to use his blocking ability that they ran and rave so much about and he is a good blocker but he would also be able to get more involved in the game and then you could bring back the three tight end sets you don't got to trade for Zach Erts you ain't got to bring back Hayden Hurst you could try with Miles Boykin at tight end as that third guy you ain't got to make a call to the Raiders for Darren Waller uh you ain't got to do none of that because you would already have somebody on a roster and then like you said Devin Duvenay sitting there waiting waiting and we know that Devin Duvenay we know this dude can fly we know he can fly and the thing about him see man for this Ravens and Steelers game Devin Duvenay is built perfect for these games because he's fast but he's strong too he's strong he got some muscle on him so he is built for this Raven Steelers rivalry man he is perfect for it so I really do hope they get him a lot more involved than they have been but moving Miles Boykin at tight end at least temporarily just on some plays here and there it could help just really open this thing up for everybody because Miles he still got the speed now Ravens don't really use it but he still got that speed and again big frame so if they put him at tight end it would be an adjustment but I think just do a little by little you ain't got to make this just rash decision okay Miles Boykin you moving to tight end no just put him in there for some plays a few plays throughout the game and just get him used to it and see how it goes I think it could work out well man I think I think it really could the last question on this episode NFL questions from subscribers came from my boy Jordan D he said engraving what's up it's Jordan big blessing to you and your fan appreciate you he said thanks for telling the EDC to get unique I know he joked that EDC is a part of Team Kiwi Clean but after the unique trade now I know for sure for a fact that EDC watches Team Kiwi Clean hey hey you never know man yay but he said Steve Vashati made a lot of money owning a staffing agency that is where the Ravens got the philosophy to hire from within on defense for the most part the Ravens have elevated coaches from assistant positions to defensive coordinator if you look back wink Martindale was a linebacker's coach my favorite defensive coordinator Rex Ryan was also a linebacker's coach who was elevated to defensive coordinator in my opinion this is why on the defensive side of the ball the Baltimore Ravens have excelled tremendously that's true because oh he said it already continuity brings success and yeah I agree with that because yeah the Ravens on the defensive side of the ball that that's what they've been known for and they always hire from within hire from within hire from within hire from within and they keep doing that for the most part and they keep promoting guys so when you promote somebody from within that gives you that consistency because you don't have to make any drastic changes to whatever side of the ball that you got promoted from whether it's offensive defense you can still stick with pretty much the same thing but you can put your own tweaks on it so yeah that's a good point anyway he said in my opinion this is why our offense has not excelled over the years in the same way our defense has excelled over the years offensively during the Joe Flacco era we went through a plethora of offensive coordinators I do believe this affected the growth of Joe Flacco having to learn a new offensive system with new terminologies for the most part every season I didn't know I didn't remember that with Joe Flacco he actually had the same offensive coordinator for like the first five years I believe with Cameron Cameron but after that then that's when it started getting tipsy terry and shaky and whatnot but anyway with that being said if the Ravens were to fire Greg Roman as offensive coordinator what assistant coach on the offensive side of the ball would you hire as his replacement if they were to fire Greg Roman I don't I don't see them firing Greg Roman I would think that he would get a head coaching job hopefully this could be the this could be the year because hopefully the Ravens they went to Superbowl and then everybody's looking at their coordinators like oh okay that one over there yeah come in you're coming with me um but with Greg Roman if he were to move on uh whether fire or hired somewhere else I think that uh some candidates for offensive coordinator would be great how do I say Greg Coley would be David Coley or James Urban and again for the exact reasons that you said and I've been saying that same thing because some people have asked about this the possibility of Greg Roman moving on um I think either one of those guys would be the if they didn't go with him I think that James Urban would be a bigger candidate to go with Greg Roman but I know my god Nitro made a very good point about that because the grass isn't always greener because James Urban say for instance Greg Greg Roman goes to goes to any situation where say you get safe instance he gets hired by the Jets this and this is just using them as an example but if he goes to a situation to where um Greg Roman gets hired by the Jets and he like hey James come with me come on come be my my offensive coordinator you're not going to be a QB coach no more for the Ravens he'd be an offensive coordinator for me pay raise hey you get to call the shots and you ride it with me now let's go how about it and then he may look James Urban may look over at Greg Roman situation with the Jets and be like oh no I don't want to go there that that that team they they are the exact opposite of consistency people get fired over there every couple of months I don't want to go there I won't have any job security there I don't want it so that when when I when I initially when I thought about Greg Roman leaving I automatically thought okay James Urban gonna roll with him and he still could but it all it just all depends on the situation but again from within for the Ravens on the offensive side of the ball I think it would be either David Cully or James Urban if Greg Roman was to bounce and he said I'm a huge fan of Wink Martindale Blitz is in all oh that was a little bit petty all right he said for the sake of this conversation if Wink moved on from the Ravens who should the Ravens elevate on the defensive coaching staff um now that for that uh I feel so bad because I just I watched the Ravens presser from a couple of days I'm recording this on a Friday evening by the way Friday October 30th on at about 8 30 watch the Ravens presser from a couple of days ago and their linebackers coach he was speaking and I didn't I didn't know who he was and I do not remember his name so my apologies and I don't I don't say I didn't remember his name in a disrespectful way because it's not that I just did not know who it was so that was just me and my uh my ignorance with that um but I would say him because again like you said promoting from within promoting from within and I believe Wink was a lot I want to say he was a linebacker's coach before with like Suggs and him I want I'm pretty sure he was so again that would be a guy from within getting the job and again you don't got to change too much but again I'm sure they would change their own stuff and put their own little spin on things because again when Wink was a linebacker's coach for the Ravens I believe and you see a big difference between him and ah the guy we had before Dean Peace Dean Peace because with Dean Peace Dean Peace was not a bad defensive coordinator but just situationally he was bad and in different situations he played scared and just it just ah he wasn't a bad defensive coordinator overall though because Ravens defenses were still always pretty good um but they they just the the situational football just it was a little rough there for him so anyway I would say Ravens linebacker coach just to continue that trend
