 Wow, this is really special because it's real now. There's no more speculating, there's no more preseason, there's no more wondering what it's gonna be. We're gonna get to actually see the real final product on the field this Sunday. The Baltimore Ravens are headed up to the Meadowlands to take on not only the New York Jets, but to take on some very, very familiar faces who were near and dear to our hearts at one point in time. And we're gonna talk about all that, but since this is such a special, joyous occasion, why not bring on a very special, joyous guest to help us break it all down. Ravens Jets preview for week one, let's get it. Yeah, this feels like a dream, no jazz, but a man. You too, team, keep it clean. You see my boy, he like, out of made it, out of made it. Wooden Raven. So, you two, team, keep it clean. Welcome to a very, very special episode because this is our very first week, our very first game preview for the Ravens, this upcoming season. And in week one, this is a very special game because this game starts off the season for both teams, but this game has a lot of emotional value to it as well. But I figured I'd bring on a special guest. Welcome Jets Central to the channel. Appreciate you being on. And first, let everybody know where they can find you at. Yeah, well, I mean, first and foremost, man, thanks so much for having me, I appreciate it. But yeah, run a YouTube channel called Jets Central, cover all things New York Jets, and same thing on Twitter as well. Okay, and all of that stuff will be down below in the description. Now, let's just start off with the emotional part of this game, especially for us Ravens fans. We've got a lot of history with a certain quarterback over there. He was a Super Bowl MVP for us back in 2013. And that's of course, Joe Fleco. Now, with Zach Wilson's injury, that of course put him in question for this game coming up. Has there been clarity on who's starting that quarterback? I mean, we all expect it to be Joe Fleco, but have they officially been like, all right, is Joe Fleco's time or are they still like kind of putting Zach Wilson in limbo as far as returning? Yeah, it's still a bit of a gray area for sure. I mean, it's not really, what's weird is that the coaching, like everybody's expecting it to be Joe Flacco. And quite frankly, all the beat reporters and whatnot, they would all be like shocked. Like that's the exact word that everybody's throwing around. If it wasn't Joe Flacco, so I'm betting on Joe. But dude, I mean, you talked about the ties, man. There's a lot of ties between these two organizations, like the days of Rex Ryan coming over from Baltimore, Bart Scott, I mean, we got CJ Mosley as well. Joe Douglas as well too, so it's crazy. Yeah, there are a lot of times when usually the Ravens will release somebody. And then the Jets end up picking them up. A lot of times we call them the New York Ravens or the Baltimore Jets. But anyway, with Joe Fleco, well, whoever's playing quarterback, we'll cease to be determined. But the receivers, how have Garrett Wilson and Elijah Moore been looking? And also one that I forget about Corey Davis too. How have they been looking? Soup, I mean, so far so good. The hope with Elijah Moore and Garrett Wilson are, like the sky's the limit for both of those guys. Corey Davis, I feel like we know what we're going to get. Although I will say he was a little disappointing last season, had some drops and missed a lot of time due to injury. But now Garrett Wilson, man, the Jets drafted him in the top 10. He's going to be a dynamic playmaker for the team. I don't think a team with this many holes going into the draft would take a wide receiver at 10 if they didn't really play on using them. So I think Garrett Wilson is going to be an absolute stud. And then Elijah Moore as well, he's a guy who can line up all over the place, inside, outside, make plays down the field in the short passing game. I'm excited. Yeah, you're talking about Garrett Wilson going in the top 10. The Jets also had another nice pick going to top 10, who had a lot of talk surrounding him. And that's Sauce Gardner. How has he been and what would you expect from him? Not only for this game, but really for this season? Yeah, so, I mean, to me, it's like you got to be sold if you're going to be taking a cornerback in the top five. Like he has to be Jalen Ramsey. He has to be elite. I don't think Sauce is going to be elite year one. I'm not, you know, putting these top 10 cornerback expectations on him this season. But in year two, year three, year four, definitely. I mean, he's got to be top five, top 10 at that point, because it's like, again, going back to the draft, you don't draft a cornerback to fourth overall, you know, you just don't do it. But man, you look at the size, you look at the speed, production at Cincinnati, the guy was just a lockdown beast, quite frankly. I'm excited to see what he's going to do at the next level. It's not going to be a defense where he's, like, you know, Dorel Rivas was in the past, where he just follows, he essentially like neutralizes. Yeah, that was my next question. Right, right. I mean, that'd be great if he turns into a Rivas. But no, just like as far as like the defensive scheme goes, I don't think he's going to be moving around, locking out one person. But no, I mean, again, kind of same deal as Elijah Moore and Garrett Wilson, the sky's the limit for him. And I'm excited to see what he brings. Oh, man. Speaking of excitement, I remember back in 2018, it was the Lamar Jackson's rookie year. It was the last game of the season. And it was for the division. It was at M&T Bank Stadium. Place was rocking. I always say that that was the loudest I've ever heard Raven Stadium in my life. And it was fourth. And I think about fourth and sixth. Baker may feel very into the game. Baker may feel drops back and Raven's lying back. He fakes like he's going to rush to pass it. But then all of a sudden, he drops back, stretches his arms out, tips the ball, ends up coming down with the game winning interception. And that linebacker was CJ Mosey. Now CJ Mosey, I remember when to at the end of his Ravens, his tenor with the Ravens, they offered him a deal. But he was like, no, that's not enough. And then the Jets ended up offering more. And we know the rest of the story had that went. But we also know that he did opt out. I think Kovie, he opted out. And then he felt dealt with some injuries. But how has CJ Mosey looked this off season? Yeah, I mean, the off season has been great. And he's coming off a season where he had over 160 tackles, which was crazy. I mean, early on when he first signed with the Jets, he got hurt in week one, missed pretty much the entire season. And then, like he said, like he came back in week 17, but it was just like too little, too late. Then the next season was the 2020 virus season. So he opted out. So it was like the Jets signed this, you know, all pro, just this beast of a linebacker, right? This elite linebacker on a mega deal. And they saw like essentially one game from pretty much against that against the Buffalo Bills in week one. And, you know, Jets is, you know, they were starting to get fans were starting to get like a little impatient, like, when are we going to see him on the field? How's he going to look hasn't played for two years. But no, he played well last season. Again, it's racked up tons and tons of tackles. Really the leader, the quarterback of the defense. And what's weird is like C.J. Mosley is not some. It's not like Ray Lewis, right? And his last couple of seasons where he's like the this old veteran leader. But but that's kind of what C.J. Mosley is right now with his defense, even though he's still kind of a young guy. He's still, you know, he's still the veteran in the room because the Jets have so much youth overall. Yeah. One thing I always appreciated about C.J. Mosley was that sort of veteran approach that he always took. He wasn't like this linebacker with a crazy amount of speed or this crazy burst, but he was smart. Always was a good tackler. Always was very good at diagnosing plays and whatnot. So I'm looking forward to seeing how C.J. Mosley does in this game. But just to finish it off, how do you think this game is going to go? What would your be? What would be your predictions for the outcome of this game? Week one, Jets versus Ravens? Yes. So I mean, it's tough because we still don't know what's happening quarterback. We're probably going to find out later today at some point. But I'm going to say Baltimore Ravens. Baltimore Ravens, 24 New York Jets, 13. Hmm. OK. I actually think it would be a little bit closer than that. I picked Ravens 28 and Jets 20. OK. I just I think it would be one of those games. Well, I know a lot of people probably expecting like a blowout or whatever. But I'm just I don't know. I can't I don't expect it. I don't expect it. But I think I think Ravens will end up handling business. But I still think it's going to be one of those tough games because it is week one. Everybody's oh, oh, and oh, nobody has played a game yet. And everybody has that sort of that that emotion. Everything's running high. Everybody has that excitement. And everybody feels like, OK, we got a chance to do something. But either way, it should be a really fun one. And before we get out of here, let everybody know where they can find you. And just one more time. Yeah, YouTube, Twitter, Jets Central. I think on Twitter, it's actually Jets underscore central. But I appreciate you having me, man. Oh, yeah, for sure. I appreciate you coming on and team can be clean. We'll see how this game goes. Y'all make sure you're subscribed to Jets Central to stay updated on everything New York and we out.
