It's not a big deal I love y'all team keep it clean. Thank you. Like we always say we talk about Ravens literally every single day We talk Ravens 365 days a year Even in the offseason we still talking Ravens Even in the offseason But I appreciate y'all I love y'all we got some great questions as we always do Let's get it first question came from my boy man. You well. He said what's up in Graven shout out from Mexico I was watching the rant Ryan Clark had on the Steelers about the new players not respecting the culture That was established in Pittsburgh about playing physical hard-hitting football every play and they seem more dedicated to doing TikTok videos or trying to be more appealing to kids by being friendly on social media now with that I Know Ryan Clark he played in that hard-hitting era of Steelers football And even before then before he played before his tenor with the Steelers. It was even hard hitting even back Of course way back in a day But he has to understand this is a much different era One is a much different era. You cannot be nearly as even if you look at football from ten years ago You cannot be nearly as physical in football as you once were So that's something that a lot of old-school football people need to realize It's just it's not the same the NFL doesn't allow it and they don't want it So it makes it that much harder for defensive play. That's when when you see a good defense nowadays You got to give them even more credit because it the game is so much harder nowadays and As far as um, and if he did say that about them being wanting to appeal more to kids by being friendly on social media There's nothing wrong with that Now with the tick-tock videos is people having fun I know a lot of people got on juju about that about all the tick-tock videos called him tick-tock boy tick-tock this tick-tock that He's having fun he's having fun and His team for the most part they had been successful last year in the regular season. What were they 11 and 5? I think I think they were 11 5. I know they started off hot 11 and oh and then stuff got really bumpy after that I forgot what their final record ended up being but like it's it's a different air and It's just a different air so when when players are on social media social media wasn't around back then It wasn't around like that back then so now where social media is again like we always say it's a gift and a curse It allows you to have more access to people to players and whatnot But then also on the bad the bad side it allows you to have more access to people and players and whatnot So it's all it all depends on how you use it But if they're using it interacting with kids interacting with their fans and whatnot in a positive way, okay, no problem No problem if they doing it in a negative way, okay problem But and then you got like you got fans to it goes both ways It goes both ways because then you got some fans that'll be like oh man. What are you doing on tiktok? You need to be in a playbook Social media is only what people want you to see They they could like for a football player for example They on there on doing a tiktok the one tiktok though that that Juju did oh man this guy man. I don't know if y'all saw it I saw it on Twitter, but there was one tiktok that he did to that. Uh, that Lil Nas X and um and Jack Harlow song Where where Jack Harlow talks about the the clapping and juju like put the camera to the backs I'm like, what are you doing, man? Sky now you don't get no pass for that one, but all the other ones they just having fun, man So it just all depends on how you look at it. Anyway, let's get back to the question He said that made me look at the Ravens and what I see is why the general Ray Lewis Ed Ray Jonathan Argan trail sucks Jamal Lewis never felt embarrassed about the new Ravens coming in and out of the team Because the past and culture is Respected here and the players come and play like a Raven because showing what you have on the field Grants you more recognition than posting videos on social media It makes kids and teenagers want to play like you instead of just being a celebrity that plays mediocre and does Videos and rants because the water was cold It is clear that in Pittsburgh the culture got lost in here in Baltimore. It hasn't For as much as we got players posting on IG and their social media when it's work time It's work time and they know it stay safe You got my vote for going to the Pro Bowl is the number one of number one fan media of the Ravens I appreciate you. I don't think they will be selecting me to the Pro Bowl though But anyway, I mean I wouldn't even like say all that. I mean, it's it's just different. Yeah And there are a lot of Ravens players that they post on social media, too They're they're right there like Lamar post something like every single day Hollywood post something like all the time They they on that all the time but the end those are the only two that I follow Mon Humphrey be on he be on Twitter all the time I don't even follow him and I see his tweets all the time He's always on there But he still goes out there this year this year's statistically has been good But when you watch just what oh, yeah more than Humphrey been giving up a lot more plays than we used to But he so my point is that he's on social media, too, but he also is still a good player So people are a lot like a lot of people get it twisted with football players and Alvin Kamar Literally, just I just saw his tweet about this like he tweeted it last night. I just saw it earlier today Well, he talked about y'all y'all think that football is everything. It's not It's not even for football players. It's not These dudes have lives. They have families and they have fun It's not like a lot of fans Fans look at football players like I if this player if On the field they need to perform obviously But then when they're off the field if they're on social media if their social media isn't about football They're not all I come They're not really dedicated to it Their social media needs to be only about football and football only they need to be showing them working out and needs to show Them studying to playbook needs to show them at the gym and needs to show them on the practice field at the facility And that's it no more No, it's not like that These dudes can have fun too. It's okay for them to take break like I've seen it sort like Hollywood is the best example because that's probably the only person that I watch on twitch as far as an NFL player I'm sure that more NFL players on it too. But anyway, Hollywood every time I go to his twitch when he's live He'll be playing madden or he'll be playing something else My favorites are the Madden's cuz I don't care for GTA. I don't care for none of other games like that Anyway, when he's playing a game, whatever game it may be he'll be playing Then somebody come on there. Hey, how are you gonna do this weekend? Hey? Hey, how many points you're gonna get in fantasy, man? Hey, how many touchdowns you guys gonna score this weekend, man? It's like give it a break Give it a break. He's taking a break. You can take let him take a break, too Because people say they don't let football players Be people they just want them to be football football football football football So it's not even that the culture has been lost in Pittsburgh anything like that It they just over there having fun and this is a new age of football. It's a new age in social media Ravens players do it too. Steelers players do it too players on other teams do it too It's a new age Like what what past Ravens quarterback? Do you know will be posted posting stories listening to who low shimmy and Kodak black and all that like You think Joe Flacco doing that Was he posting any stories of him listening to anything? It's Kyle Bola doing that Steven like it's a new era and I mean new era eight like okay Well that tight in pretty pretty good, but that's exactly what it's a new era So people just gotta get with it next question came from my guy Lewis. Hey shout out to my guy He was Tony Paul John's biggest fan. I got told I will always told him I think it was his cousin or something it had to be anyway. He said engraving man I'm a little worried who is gonna be the leader in the locker room firing the boys up for this rivalry game The Steelers are amped up and I could see them smack in us if we don't come correct Do you think Kaleas or someone else got it covered or do you share the same concerns much love keep grinding brother? Appreciate it. Lois. I don't share the same concerns at all Why for what the locker room leader? I'm worried about who the locker room leader is I'm worried about who gonna show up on and be a leader on the field Kaleas came over you little more Jackson. You got anything to be like that and Chuck claw you you've had like As far as like a pregame speech and all that they've talked about how different guys have spoken to the Ravens before the games this season Sometimes the Ravens win those games. Sometimes we lose those games, but they've talked about it with different guys So there's been pronouncing fee as well. There's there's just been so many different people So I'm sure they they will have somebody who is willing and ready to step up and speak up To really try to get these boys amped up and I mean, I'm sure they amped up all alone already It's Steelers like this is this is somebody who you gonna have to play twice So what better way? What better way to set yourselves up? To where if you can get this one on the road then the next time you play these boys is at the crib That oh that would be so sweet and then likes so these boys are already amped up enough But they got plenty of options of people to amp them up even more next question came from my boy droid 209 He said engraving my brother. Hope all is well with the family I know 2025 is a long way to go. But what do you think about Jim? Heartball. It's OC. It's offensive coordinator Man, it's already enough nepotism on this Ravens staff as is. It's already so No, uh-uh No, I know. Oh Goodness, uh-uh That's a no for me from jump, but let's let's finish this question He said I know left field question But I've been thinking about that scenario for a couple of months now and I just want to get your thoughts on that subject All right. Uh, no That that will be a no for me. Um, I just want somebody who I would like to see somebody who's not connected to Hubble Who um, just somebody at a way left field Somebody who may be like a choice of um, maybe Eric the cost of some But just not anybody because I want I Want the person to be held accountable and I don't want I don't want not that I don't want to like a buddy buddy system because again Ravens they they always show that they family there Family oriented business organization blah blah and that's cool. But I just I don't want it to be somebody to where I Just want everybody to be held accountable. That's my point I want Hobart to be held accountable. I want the offensive coordinator be held accountable GM held accountable Decent defensive coordinator be held. I want everybody players to be held Okay, I want everybody to be held accountable and I feel like if it's somebody that Hobbs may be buddy buddy with if they're not doing their job Then he'll just get him a pass. Oh, no, that's my boy I can't put him on blast like that and not that you got to put somebody on blast Because you don't All that stuff could be talked about behind closed doors But actions speak louder than words and we can see when somebody's not being held accountable We see it So I just if it's somebody that's buddy buddy with hardball and that came from a hardball Andy Reid coaching tree They ever coached together before it's nice when you put your boys on shout out to the hashtag hood hardball We love that but at the same time it can be a detriment as well Because you I feel like a lot of the hires it can be guys who a hardball may be comfortable with and be a little too comfortable with in my opinion and When you're super comfortable, then you'll be afraid to get out your comfort zone And then there will be you I feel like you're evolving will be it will be limited on How much you can grow how much you can evolve how much you can truly get better? I feel like that would be limited if you just like I you know what? I'm gonna put my boy on I know what he can do But I just feel like that wouldn't truly be getting the best For the team so I would go with an old man. His question ain't even done But I will go to know he said another thing. How would you rank Ravens past running backs Ray Rice? Jamal Lewis Alex Collins Mark Ingham J. K. Well, those those three would be all under the rest of them Be under Ray Rice and Jamal Lewis and there's no offense to any of the three, but Ray Rice and Jamal Lewis. They are the top for sure Um as far as between those two it all depends man Because with with both of them. They were both amazing They were both just great running backs And you could go any mini-mini mode really for me. I say Ray Rice over Jamal Lewis Because of his involvement in the passing game too, it's like one of those things the more you can do now Jamal Lewis He could be involved in a passing game too, you know, they used to do some screens back then. That's crazy, right? But yeah, I would buy that the buy one little chin here I would say Ray Rice then Jamal Lewis then as far as the rest of them It's hard because they just They're so different and he says the other one. He said Alex Collins Mark Ingham and J. K I go Based off of what they've done J. K only played for a year Mark England what he only had a year here Alex Collins had like he had like a year and change I think so Yeah, I guess they all played for you here based off of what they've done and what my expectations for them as Ravens Well, obviously Mark Ingham and Alex Collins ain't ever gonna be Ravens again But they did have positive impacts on them, but I will go after Ray Rice and Jamal Lewis I go J. K J. K. Mark Ingham Alex Collins even even that's tough Because J. K is obviously the future. We know he's gonna do great things for the Ravens but Mark Ingham what he brought to the culture and For him to just and I guess maybe this might put him a little over J. K for now like temporarily But for what Mark Ingham did for the culture and speaking of culture again shout out to my guy Manuel But what market you did for the culture of this Ravens for that that that real shift Because the culture was changing when in 2018 when Lamar took over for flacco the culture was changing But it wasn't changed yet But 2019 Mark Ingham came through Earl Thomas came But anyway that shift that change was official in 2019 and Mark Ingham was a huge part of that huge part of that and It's like whenever we think about Mark Ingham. We think about big trust obviously We think about his impact sort of as and I'm not in a disrespectful way But sort of as a cheerleader as a hype man That's what we think about with Mark Ingham, but we can't forget He had a really good year running the ball to So his impact was felt both on and off the field both in major ways This dude was huge for the Ravens that season. So for now I'll go Ray Rice Jamal Lewis Mark Ingham Jk and Alex Collins. So that was um Good question little bonus question because we start talking about that first question Jim Harbaugh's offensive coordinator. No, not for me. Oh, but anyway, he said thank you side note Thank you for doing live streams during the games. Glad I have a stress Yeah, we we all be stressing together with these Ravens even though I'd be like a player too behind Yeah, we we we stressing together man. He said my wife also appreciates it. She calls you dead Oh devs YouTube friend whenever she see me watching the videos Shout out to you and your wife man. Appreciate you next question came from Amanda. She said hey, my name is Amanda I'm a huge fan of the Ravens. I'm 22 So I just started really getting in the football these past few years But ever since Lamar came to be more I've been obsessed Oh, your channel loan has helped me understand so many aspects of the game. I listen to it all the time I love being a part of team keep it clean. I went to this past game against the Browns and it was horrendous Oh LaVar looks like his old self. Oh, I'm praying Lamar looks like his old self against the Steelers Hey, Amanda, we appreciate it and we are all hoping the same thing that Lamar gets it back And he should he should have a nice bounce back game against Pittsburgh. Um, I Am still worried about what worried about it though because This is Raven Steelers. It's not just a random NFC team anything like that It's Ravens and Steelers. So This is a team like when Ravens and Steelers play each other The records are cool. Whatever each team's record is it's cool, but it means absolutely nothing It means nothing when they play each other nothing So the Steelers I think are like five five and one something like that. I forgot what their record is But it doesn't mean anything and Lamar said that to the other day. He said he looks at that record That don't mean nothing, you know, they're gonna come come to play especially cuz it's Ravens like again, remember 2015 Ravens These dudes went five and 11 so they were obviously Pretty bad team, but they were literally hurt. Everybody was hurt every position. Everybody was hurt and Strangely enough, that's the year that Jimmy Smith played the entire year one of the years where Jimmy Smith played the entire year No injuries at all. It's like wow, that's crazy. Talk about irony. Anyway They swept the Steelers that year They swept them Man Jimmy Smith even had a pick six that that got called back because Somebody was off sides in that game, but Ravens still won but um, man, I remember that pick stick that was crazy But anyway, they they still swept them My point was saying all that is to show that the records mean nothing Ravens won three other games that year in the total of 16 games They won three other games, but they won two against the Steelers So if that don't show you that the records don't mean nothing, I don't know what will But hey, I appreciate you watching the channel. Um, she said to help you understand so many aspects of the game Um, I appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you I don't know what I could have helped you understand, but I'm glad it was something so I I appreciate it. I um It's always that that's one of the biggest goals With the channel for people who Whether they know a lot about football Or they know pretty much nothing about football that they can come through and um, just learn something This is another one of the reasons why I really love this This question is from subscribers because there's a lot of stuff that I don't know A lot of stuff. Oh, it's so much a plethora of information that I just have no clue on But the question from subscribers A lot of y'all have put me on to so many so much different stuff When it comes not only the ravens, but just the league in a failed football period And I appreciate y'all for that. Thanks question came from my boy, Mike He said my greed here can it read up all as well with you and the fam Everything is good my guy. He said just sitting here scrolling through scrolling through We are ravens flocks post on facebook and a pic of marcus peters popped up Oh, man Hey, be careful because if you're you on facebook. Oh, oh gosh that That's a dangerous place to be That's I saw a meme about it before and I mean you could talk about this with any part of facebook But when football facebook ravens facebook, I saw a meme about um, where it was it was mufasa and simba and he said uh Everywhere that the light touches you can go there But over there where the light ain't touching That's ravens facebook. Don't go there and for me I Because I will um I'll share videos on facebook and whatnot, but that's about it Because it is just I don't interact with pretty much nothing on there Uh because uh, it's nasty on there people they just Whoo, they are just they come from way from left field on there and they just toxic toxic toxic It's just like a bunch. It's like facebook is just a bunch of angry people Who can be the angriest today? And I mean you could say that about a lot of different social media stuff Um, but facebook is like like twitter twitter has good and bad Good interactions better than actions and everything in between uh instagram um I mean it's that same thing everywhere, but facebook is like The negativity on there It just outweighs the positivity by far That's why I just share whatever videos we want to share on there I'm out That's it And he hanging around for this mess anyway He said uh Anthony a oh, he started automatically started thinking about next season when that the picture market speed has popped up Anthony avid has been doing pretty well this season in market speed his place Probably could get him on a cheap deal too. I don't know man. I don't know about that He's getting ready to be a free agent. I was just telling somebody the other day I said if the ravens want to sign him They better hope he has a bad game and they would have he would have to have a worse game than the coach game Which was his worst game of the season and then they would have to sign him right after that bad game That would be the the only way that can get him for cheap the only way If you if you don't sign him after a really really bad game He's gone he's gone because if the if he has a really really bad game His value it'll look bad Even though teams would be like oh wait to know we got to look at the whole picture And that's what him and his agent should do they should if the ravens try them like that They should be like no we look at the whole picture. Yeah, he had a bad game But look at all these other players on defense that had bad games too But anyway, um, let's keep it going. He said that got me thinking about having maybe uh putting Marcus Peters at free safety Look, I um, let me let him finish. He said, uh, he's uh, he's a ballhawk in the and he's been in the league for years He gambles a lot anyway and at free safety. He would have more freedom And you know, he loves to read the QB's eyes anyways, lol Let's be honest. That's how he gets beat most of the time He could see the whole field and everything will be in front of him Brandon Stevens is better at strong safety in my opinion. Hope this wasn't too long. Keep doing your thing Be blessed appreciate you man. Um I do this in madden all the time um When because I'll be playing madden Got Marlowe. You got Marcus Peters Uh, and then you got whatever other cornerbacks you got there, uh, because when with Marcus Peters when he uh Because what I do with my cornerbacks if I really like a cornerback then um And they start to get slower if your speed is uh, is a 90 once your speed gets to being like 91 90 No, you you can't play corner for me no more my friend that speed got to be up to play corner for me But once your speed starts dropping Oh, your uh, your position is gonna change So I always put Marcus Peters at free safety and he he does his thing back there um, but with Marcus Peters, I um I don't think the Ravens do that Because with Marcus Peters With a safety as a ballhawk. Oh man, it would be amazing. It was oh boy. He would feast back like The the field would be cut. We would be straight man. We would be so straight because he would be able to recover He would be able to cover so much of the field. I I feel like he As far as that roman safety He would do so good in that. I feel like he would do great at that role Great What if we put both him and jimmy smith back there? Marcus Peters at free safety jimmy smith has strong safety Oh, if jimmy smith could say healthy now, but The tackler that would be my only concern will be the tackler. That'll be it everything Like this dude he can read players as a cornerback. So what tackling would be my only concern consistent tackling Because we know like this dude in the playoff game. He went head up with Derek Henry head up with him But then like there was a couple weeks before that in steelers game where he just he ain't had no part of contact No part of contact and it was like, oh, what's that about? So that was my that would literally be my only concern about Marcus Peters at free safety Would be the tackling Would that be something and i'm sure A lot of raven fans would be like, oh, yeah for sure But i was gonna say would that be something that you would be willing to take that that gamble that risk on his tackling If he was at free safety for me I'd probably say yeah I'll probably say yeah straight up man Because he I call him the the ed read of cornerbacks He's the ad read of cornerbacks And if this guy was at safety It would be one of those things where quarterbacks they don't want to try him Again, imagine Marcus Peters You already see Marcus Peters with just some of the field in front of him some of the field behind him But imagine Marcus Peters with everything in front of him And with his the high football IQ, we know he has man I think this dude would thrive at free safety Yeah, I think he would be amazing And he said, uh, he thinks that Brandon Stevens is better at strong safety um in his opinion, um We'll see we'll see again. We gotta remember. He's a rookie. We cannot forget that. He is a rookie It's his first year doing this first year, so that's something that we always got to keep in mind, but I I would love it Straight up. I would love it. I don't think it's gonna happen But Never say never Next question came from my guy Dana. He said ain't graven. It's been a while since my last email But did you notice how all the pundits are seemingly taking or talking down about the stealers as if they want the ravens to Lose only acho gave a take that sounded like he was challenging towards the men in purple Well, hope all is well with you in the fan hashtag team. Keep it clean and hashtag purple city bird game This this is one of those games man straight up This is one of those games that if the ravens lost I just I wouldn't be surprised. It's it's ravens stealers We know this game it could be ugly It could be one of them little ugly games. I don't think it could be as ugly as last week But it does have that that possible potential But this game it could be nasty because these two teams know each other so well They know each other so well Steelers they certainly haven't been playing their best football They certainly haven't ravens. They they haven't been playing their best football, but they've been winning They've been winning um, so this this is just This is it's like It's not a trap game because it's only because it's still us It's not a trap game because it's the stealers And we know that these dudes They can be this flip floppy team Well, they just going by they scraping by then all of a sudden click Oh, they decided to turn it on against the ravens. Oh boy. Here we go So I I wouldn't really take any offense to that at all next question came from my guy Wesley. He said, what's up a little big Ain't no little bill no more man. You see all this hair man. You see all of that We ain't little bill no more. Anyway, you said I just started watching your videos this year And I watch every video since I discovered the channel. Uh, thank you for the quality content and consistent drops I appreciate that. Thank you Um, because I know some people could see all them videos and be like, oh Oh, I'm tired of seeing this guy's face, which I wouldn't be mad at them at all for saying that I could completely understand Uh, well, now I appreciate your support in the channel, man Um, he said anyways, my question to you is with the presumably healthy squad next year Oh That would be something. Uh, what off season moves do you think this team needs to make them or to take them to the next level? All right, uh, well before I continue, um Obviously upgrading that offensive line for sure something that we've been talking about just for them preparing for life without Ronnie Stanley And I know he's expected to come back But I think they just really need to move forward like like he's not coming back And you need to have a plan in place as if he weren't coming back because Ronnie Stanley is a bonus He's a bonus So just so upgrading the offensive line heavily heavily And upgrading that defensive line too Um secondary, uh, there's gonna be some holes there Because Anthony avid he could end up being gone Marcus Peters will see what happens with him um only because of salary cap uh Deshaun Elliott he'll either be going or I like I think for him on offense. I mean excuse me on defense It's this this Ronnie Stanley situation They got to prepare for life without Deshaun Elliott They have and I think they already have with Brandon Stevens who's again somebody who they really really like Uh, so they already headed in that direction but um If if they did decide to re-sign him For what would be a cheap deal then anything you get out of him has to be considered a bonus because Same thing as Ronnie Stanley. You got to prepare for life without him So we'll see what happens with that um At linebacker they got to figure out what they're gonna do at linebacker Because josh binds like you josh binds been wonderful for the Ravens and he has been this clutch turnaround guy for the team two out of the last three years because again 2019 linebacker looking like a big yikes that hey josh binds. What's up big head? Like literally big head because you got a big forehead, but anyway, um, they hit him up He came through save the day him and lj fort 2020 he went to the bingles. He's like, oh, yeah, i'ma chill here for a little minute and big yikes but then 2021 Linebacking looking like a big yikes Hey, josh, what's up big head again and literally because he got the big forehead, but came through save the day But you uh josh binds he can't keep being your crutch You got to figure that out So whether patrick queen going to hold down the roll Who else is going to be what it's going to be there at inside linebacker? You got to figure that out Past rushes, of course, the daffy away will be in his second year, but just in houston He's not going to be here next year Kalaeus Campbell He's been talking about retirement. He'll be going probably brandon williams. He could be going too Derek wolf. He'll be going as well So defensive line could have a brand new look brand new look So you got to figure that out too with the free agency draft mix of both they mix of both So that's yeah, it's it's it's definitely going to be uh Definitely going to be much different But anyway, he said I truly think we need some safety help Up top now that elliott will most likely be gone. Okay. I probably should have read all this before Uh Said jimmy smith is getting up there in years He's already there actually and he's going to be an unrestricted free agent after this season And marquise peters is a year older coming off a serious injury Do you think we bulk up that secondary unit guys like xavier road patrick peters and kyle fuller and brashad brelin All sound like nice things on a free agent market. Thank you. Thanks again for all that you do and team keep it clean Appreciate it. Okay. So yeah, we we we already answered all of that But yeah, all of those positions safety Figuring out what's what's going to happen there? But yes, the secondary too. Like we said, anthony avid he could be gone jimmy smith um Yeah, the secondary could look a lot different a whole lot different But again, like like you said at in the first part of the paragraph, uh with a presumably healthy squad That's probably the biggest thing
