 Question around the NFL and especially the AFC side of the NFL is when is Lamar Jackson going to make his return? When is he gonna come back? When should he come back? Because I think yesterday's game could have possibly altered when he will return But at the same time it may not have because not everything is set in stone while the Ravens did officially clinch a playoff Birth yesterday, which is great, which we super heavy about I love it. But while they did clinch a playoff birth yesterday Amazing, they're in they punched their ticket in it's official They still could change their playoff seeding could change. They could actually get a home playoff game That could happen. That's still in that's like that's still a possibility a real possibility, too Because in order for the Ravens to get a home playoff game, all you got to do when these next two games That's it when these next two games Nothing the bingles does matters the whether they win against the bills Which is very possible because the bingles are hot or whether they lose against the bills Which is very possible because the bills are the bills so that game I mean that game if they lose that game it could help you out a little bit earlier, but You is looking like the the Ravens and bingles week 18 game But I mean well technically week 17 or the 17th game of the season last game of the other year It's looking like that's gonna be for the division That's what it's looking like it's pointing to and what it's headed towards and I mean that it's gonna be a tough one It's gonna be a tough. Oh, there's gonna be a tough game But if Ravens went out They win a division straight up if they win these last two they they win a division there They would get a home playoff game and I know there a lot of people. Oh, well, no Ravens play better on the road that I don't want them playing at home in the playoffs me. I would I Would definitely want that home playoff game. I wanted for for the fans to get to see the Ravens play in the play I know No, you still want to see it You still want to see that like the home playoff game a game at M&T Bank state and like come on that That's special. That's real special and Regardless if you think they play better at home or play better on the road still it's playoffs So you got to bring it you got to be prepared. You got to be on point You got a you got to come right If you don't if you don't come right, you're gonna get left You're left behind So I think you want that playoff game at home because you had to go on the road regardless Like the road game that you only gonna have one home playoff game and that's it You ain't gonna have no more so you don't have to go on the road anyway But why not try to get at least one home playoff game at the crib, man But what would that change like would whether Ravens are sitting that right now in this position Would that change Lamar for when he returns would that change when he returns? I mean Let's read the report that came out before the game yesterday from Ian rapper Well, he said Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson will test his sprain knee this week Determining if he can make football related moves and practice if he can practice He should be healthy enough to play but What's that steak could play into whether he actually plays and he talked about that and then again This was before the game. So you talked about how if the Ravens clinched a playoff spot that can make them be like All right, well Lamar, we ain't got to bring you back yet We ain't got a rush at anything like that you could cheer or if they didn't clinch a playoff spot yet before the game yesterday Then or even after the game yesterday, then they could have been like, oh man Well, all right Lamar come back come back and be our hero come come come say what we got it We need this playoff spot but now the Ravens are in a Not even necessarily a tricky spot, but I mean kind of a tricky spot I mean if Lamar is is healthy if he's good to go if he's a hundred percent He should be the one out there. He obviously gives him the best chance at winning and with Lamar to another thing I don't I don't think it would be a good decision To be like, alright, let's keep Lamar out until the playoffs. I don't think they should do that Even if if he's healthy and they'd be like, we already clinched a playoff spot Tyler honey, you just go do your thing I think that if Lamar is healthy, you should get him out there reason being because You want him to get into a rhythm as early as possible because you don't you don't his first came back to be the playoff game Because you don't you don't want him to be out of sync out of really you want him to be as in tune and in rhythm with the offense as possible because Ravens, I mean, we know how that offense is we get it trust me. We get it That's why I said y'all saw how Robert Crabb flew out that Patriots fan For for what he had to deal with as a Patriots fan in that Raiders game Steven Shaddy need to be flying out a bunch of us for what we've had to deal with with watching his Ravens offense But anyway, um, we know what Ravens offense is and they can't afford to be out of sync Anymore then they are I mean sometimes the players can be out of singer We saw Andy Isabella in his first game yesterday where he ain't know what was going on And I can't fault him too much because he just hasn't been out there I'm sure he's been in practice and stuff like that But live game action is much different than practice and he he was just lost He was lost on that play with it. They didn't know what was going on He knows what was going on people trying to tell him a look and he was just standing there So he didn't get it and then with with Greg Roman like it We we gonna talk about that later on but that there's the times yesterday's game and plenty game before to Where one thing's working and they go the exact opposite direction. It's like that they go against the grain for no reason, but anyway so my point is Ravens need to try to get as many things in sync as they possibly can and the earlier the better You don't want to get to a playoff game and be working out kinks and stuff like that not to say it's not it's impossible But I think it would be better for the Ravens better for Lamar better for the running backs a line the past care better for Everybody if he was back before the playoff game, so he could just Get into the flow a lot sooner a lot earlier But we'll see how it goes right. I am I would think That they would bring him back If he's ready like if he's like ready ready, then I think they would now I do think against the the Steelers Especially with this being the next game that they have coming up I think they would they would think about it like I think they were they were really Really want to make sure Lamar is all the way Because again the most important the most important part of the process of the regular season is done The most important part of your regular season is finished is is Absolute is final is verified and what I mean by that is you have your ticket to the playoffs You're in that's the most important thing that you try to get from every single regular season get to the playoffs So we got a shot you got your shot So now you could be like, hmm with Lamar If he's if he's like 75% You know what we'll rest him for the next game. Let him get closer to 100 bring him back for the bingos game You the pressure is alleviated. It's a leave you especially since you're going against the Steelers especially since it's them and Like I would hope that the Ravens would execute the game playing that they executed against the Steelers two weeks ago even though you know Steelers gonna try to really come with it this time and try to execute better on defense, but No Ravens sometimes they get into their own heads when it comes to offense But anyway, we'll talk about that later in the post game thoughts video tomorrow But you have options you have options So I could really see them being like, all right Tyler Huntley you unless Lamar is like over a hundred percent I can see them being like, all right Tyler Huntley you up against the Steelers Lamar. You'll be back next week. I Can see them doing that. Oh, I can see them bringing back. Well, if he thought because you know the mother want to play Yeah, you know, he gonna want to play Because just just to really get back out there with his guys and stuff, you know He gonna want to be out there playing So if he is clear to play because again, I know some people thinking it's this whole little business thing Oh, yeah Lamar sitting out to prove a point I Just don't I don't think that right now Again, I never thought that especially with the situation that the Ravens are in and where they were in even before yesterday's game Because I'm thinking like Ravens are like so close to the playoffs Why wouldn't he want to get back out there and try to finish where he started? So I would think that that's his thinking like I want to get back out there with my guys I'm trying to make something happen in the playoffs. I want to take us as far as we could possibly go And then we'll see what happens from there. But anyway What do y'all think is gonna happen with Lamar y'all thinking gonna be back for the Steelers? Are you thinking gonna be back for the Bengals or you think the Ravens gonna be like hold up there, buddy You only coming back for the playoffs. Y'all let me know Just like Lamar has been the past couple of weeks when this came to playing in the games. We out. I love y'all
