 Willie Snead, L.J. Fort, Tayvon Young, Justin Tucker, Marshall Yanda, who else am I missing? But my point is that with Eric DeCosta, he has had a tendency to get it done early rather than late. And with that being said, add another one to the list. Add another one to the list, Patrick Ricard signing extension to remain with the Ravens through 2021. See with this extension, Eric DeCosta and company, the whole front office, they, I mean I'm sure he's going to get a nice raise. And they are committing to him, but they are also not over committing to him just in case he factors himself out of the plans just in case he's not as effective as he once was. Cause they ain't like it's a long term deal, it's the 2021. That's next season. So they gave him, they signed it for a one year deal really. They signed it for a one year deal. So they just made sure that he ain't going nowhere next year. They just made sure that Willie Snead ain't going nowhere next year. But again, this process that Eric DeCosta has been doing, whereas he does it early instead of doing it late. It is very smart, especially when it comes to guys who are going to be free agents. I mean, he's only doing it for guys who are going to be free agents. But the longer you wait, the longer you wait, the more these guys price tags go up. They go up. And then something else to think about too is the longer you wait and the closer these guys get to free agency, the closer they get there, the more their value increases, the more their stock rises because they are getting ready to get a taste of free agency. And you know in free agency, people overspend, they overspend, they overpay and it just, it resets the market at different positions every single year. And now I know the salary cap goes up every single year because the NFL makes billions of dollars every single year. But still, why not be ahead of the game to where you can sign these guys to contracts early? You can sign them to extensions early and you don't not saying be cheap, but you don't have to break the bank. When you sign them in-house, when you sign them before they hit free agency, you don't have to break the bank like you would if you were signing them as if they were free agents. Because if they're free agents, then you have to compete with this team, that team, that team and this team to see who can outbid who. You have to persuade this guy, you got to take him on a visit, you got to do all that stuff and you're not even guaranteed to keep him. And I'm not saying that that's a bad thing and I'm not saying that the Raven should just be punks and if they have to get into a bidding war with somebody, they should just be like, Oh, you know what, let them go. No, I'm not saying that, but what I'm saying is when you sign somebody in-house, you have an advantage in several different ways. So with them signing Patrick Ricard, we haven't got the numbers yet. I'm sure they'll come out within the next hour. Probably by the time you see this video, because I got super slow internet, so it takes these videos literally days to upload. But anyway, once you see this video, I'm sure the details of whatever his contract will have come out. So go for Patrick Ricard. He is somebody, because I know a lot of Ravens fans. It's funny, no Ravens fans have pointed this out, that I said, something that I said before the season, actually last year. I said it last year, going into this season, because a lot of people like to point out what you say that's wrong, but a lot don't address what's right. But anyway, something that I said last season is that I did not see Patrick Ricard remaining on this roster, because he had not been a part of the offense at all. And I know they wanted to keep that same style of offense. And when we watched those last six games, and I think it might have been to just let the heat die down on Patrick Ricard when those comments came out of some old Patrick Ricard tweets. And we all remember the guy who put those comments out there too. Anyway, when those, I think the Ravens more so didn't have him on the active roster to sort of let that die, not the active roster, but they didn't have him active on game day, because he was on the active roster, but I think they wanted that to sort of die down. And it did. It did. So that made me, it led me to believe like, okay, yeah, Ricard, he's not even going to be part of the plans. He ain't going to be part of the plans. Like, no, for what? So he's not going to be on the team next year. But boy was I wrong. And I was wrong in a major way. And I am glad to have been wrong about that because he has been a key contributor. Offense, defense, some games he gets hotter than others, but he's always a part. He's always a part, especially on offense. Defense, he get his here and there now. He be getting his here and there. But he has been just, he's been on both and he's made plays on both. He's made an impact on both. So now you get a guy who actually saves you a roster spot. He saves you one roster spot because you can sign one less defensive lineman because he can play defensive lineman. Or you can look at it from the other side. If you want to, you can sign one less fullback because he plays fullback. So he gives you just that much more flexibility. So I say smart signing. Good job Ravens. Now, something else that went down. Ravens, when Ravens get busy, they get busy. They get busy. Yesterday, the Ravens wave been a Jackson. And a move that wasn't a lot of us, wasn't a lot of our favorite moves of the season. But it was a move that Ravens felt had to be done. And again, it gave you a reminder of just how much of a business this business really is. It is cutthroat. It's cutthroat. And if you are somebody that's extra sensitive, if you don't know how to separate business and personal, boy, you could never be a GM. You could never be a GM. You could never be a head coach. Because that's tough. That's tough. Now I know some of y'all that watch the channel are managers. Some of y'all are supervisors. I don't know if anybody's GMs. But me, I've never been a manager. Never been a supervisor. I've been like an acting supervisor before, but never been the actual supervisor. Shout out to Dwight Schrute. But to be in a position to where you have to let somebody know whether it's male or female, in this case, it's obviously just males because it's NFL. But when you have to let a father know, you have to let a husband know. You have to let a son know. You have to let a brother know. You have to let an uncle know. You have to let a human being know that you didn't do anything wrong. But we got this guy that's coming back and we want him on the roster. And he's gonna take your spot. He's taking your spot. And the crazy part with Bennett Jackson is that man, he had been on here pre-season. He was here like another pre-season too, but he was here in pre-season. He played well in the pre-season. But again, the numbers game, we knew he wasn't gonna make it. Not cause he played bad because just to the numbers game, they had like 18 safeties. So they weren't gonna keep him and have him be 19. So then he went to the Jets, then Ravens ended up getting them back when Tony Jefferson went there. And DeShonelli. But yeah, now that Treywick's back, Treywick has officially been activated to the 53 man roster now. So Treywick, Brennan Treywick has taken his spot. So this lets us know again, just how special the special teams is to the Ravens. So just how special special teams are to the Ravens and they are very special as they should be. They are a huge part of the Ravens game. Huge part. Ravens have been one of the better teams in special teams for a long time now. Obviously in the kicking game. Ravens got that over everybody and it's not even close. They got the best kick in the league, long snapper, hold all that stuff. Morgan Cox, Sam Cooke, and Justin Tucker, the Wolf Pack. And those dudes, man, they all deserve raises. They all deserve raises. Give them all the money they want to. They need to be extended. I mean, Justin Tucker already got his. But Morgan Cox and Sam Cooke, they need to be extended. They deserve it. But with special teams, it plays a key role on this team. And with a lot of people, and it's easy for them to do it, but a lot of people don't appreciate special teams. A lot of people don't appreciate special teams. And you can understand why. Because special teams, it's not always sexy. It's not. Because usually about nine times out of 10, the kick returns don't go for a touchdown. Nine times out of 10, the part returns don't go for a touchdown. And enough times, there aren't fumbles on the kickoff or part returns. They're not blocks. I mean, it happens, but it doesn't happen as often as some people would like. But for special teams, you have to block. You have to be gritty. You have to go down the field and make that tackle. You have to attract that ball carry and go hit them. You gotta go find them. And that's your paycheck. That's your job. And as a special teamer, you also, you gotta be relied upon to come out on defense too, just in case. You gotta be ready. You have to always be ready. And with special teams too, it can be, just like imagine that. You gotta, you running full speed, the whole length of the field, just about. You running full speed, at least a little more than half of the field, you running full speed. And it's a bunch of other guys running full speed too. It's not like a normal play. A normal play, you got offense and defense and both of y'all, y'all have the line of scrimmage where y'all just standing still until somebody says hike. But for special teams, whether it's the kickoff, especially on kickoff, you got 10 guys running this way. You got 11 guys running that way. Then unless you gotta kick like Justin Tucker, who likes to hit too, then if you kicking, you got 11 guys running that way. But these guys running full speed, you gotta keep your head on the swivel. You gotta watch. You gotta be watching for the guy who's returning the ball. You gotta go try to make that tackle. Or if you're the kick, or if you're the receiving team, you gotta be watching for these guys that's gunning for the guy who has the ball. You gotta go make a key block. So you can get popped, whacked, hit, knocked out any second. And that's really what any player in football with special teams, you gotta appreciate what these guys do too. And that's why Treywick, that's why Eman Marshall, that's why LJ Ford, that's why Anthony Levine, that's why Jordan Richards, that's why a lot of these guys are so special to this team because they play special teams. Now, one way that you can tell Ravens are a solid special teams unit. Solid special teams group is because they another business decision. Justin Bethel, one of the best special teams in the league. What did the Ravens do? They had an opportunity to either keep Justin Bethel, one of the best special teams players in the league, or have the possibility, not even a guarantee, but the possibility of recouping a possible fourth round comp pick this off season. So you either keep Justin Bethel or you keep your chances, not the guarantee, but you keep your chances of getting a comp pick. It's one or the other. So they decided to keep their chances of getting a comp pick, and they cut Justin Bethel. I can't say I really agree with the move, but I mean, they haven't suffered since. They haven't suffered since special teams has been just fine and this team has still been special. So they were willing to let him go. He went over onto New England and Ravens have been doing just fine. Just fine without him. So again, I'm not a GM, that's Eric DeCosta. He knows more than me. I'm not a head coach, that's John Harbaugh. He knows more than me. I'm not a special teams coach, that's Chris Horton. He knows more than me, and they know more than us. So anyway, team keep it clean. Appreciate y'all. Brendan Treywick, welcome back. Real quick, before we get out of here, anybody that has sent questions from subscribers, just please be patient.
