 I will take an ugly win over a pretty lost any day And that's exactly what the game was yesterday. It was a very very ugly Win it could have been a lot prettier And we're gonna talk about the the could of wood of shoot-offs Because they had a huge impact on this game But despite all of them the Ravens were still able to pull it out YouTube team keep it clean What's going on this engraving here with another video and in this video I'm here to share my post-game thoughts from the game that we all watched yesterday between the Lions and the Ravens and this game It was just it was something the Ravens have been giving us panic attacks Hard attacks just making our minds just go crazy For this entire season so far all three games have literally came down to the why every single one every single one But something that before we get into this game something that I want to remind you all love is that yeah The Ravens are two and one and they've obviously won more than they've lost which is great They could be three, you know, but they also could be on three But with them being two and one What I've learned what I've taken from it is that the Ravens they've shown that Despite all these injuries Because the lock that they're long lists of injuries Despite all the injuries They are still a competitive team and they are still going to fight and Another thing too is that this team With all the injured and with all the mistakes that they've made too And I was just talking to my guys slim about this a little while ago. This is my opinion. You may agree You may not agree. That's fine, but I feel like the Ravens. I feel like they can be great Not good. I feel like this team can be great, but right now they're holding themselves back The reason I feel like they can be great is because the mistakes that they made have been Helping these other teams out big time The game against the Raiders Lamar Jackson the two fumbles The game against the Chiefs Lamar Jackson with the two interceptions The game against the Lions Marjax on their bad interception, of course, Hollywood with the drops and and Mark Andrews with the drop and a miss touchdown it just Ravens they can be their their their own worst enemy their biggest enemy and That's of course no disrespect to the Lions the Chiefs or the Raiders because they showed up and they came to do their thing in those games But Ravens they hold themselves back with these mistakes if they once they get these mistakes cleaned up if they if they play a Mistake-free football game and that's hard to do especially in today's NFL But if the Ravens can play a mistake-free football game, then I think they get their first win by double digits whenever that game comes But anyway, this game Shout out to Justin Tuck, of course Justin Tucker hit that 66-yard field goal for the win new NFL record by the way if anybody didn't know But he hit that and they were it was just wild man It was wild because I remember think like 66 yards. I would I love Justin Tucker, but Because like you can't even do that in Madden man You can't even do that in mutt. So for the fact the fact that he hit that and I was just like I was amazed I was amazed because that that takes so much to be able to do something like that And I love how with Marlon Humphrey on his IG live after the game What he did when he was talking to to Justin Tuck and Sam cook I love how Justin Tucker he gave a shout-out not only to Sam cook But he gave a shout-out to Nick Moore and he was like oh congratulations to Nick Moore because that was his first Snap his first game-winning snap of his career and that's big because that's a lot of pressure You know, I mean we saw last year with Matt scurra We saw with the bad snaps how they can just change the game and especially on the field goal unit Like I feel like a bad snap is a bad snap And but the impact of a bad snap. I feel like it's even more pressure on For a field goal because if you get a bad snap on a on a play like on a on offense The quarterback he got a good chance where he can save especially you got a little more Jackson But if you get a bad snap on a field goal Everything is done It's done the kicker can't even kick the ball or the the holder He got to do some wild catch to try to catch the ball Then they got to try to get it off by that time the field goal unit on defense They could come in and get a block it just it creates a disaster like that So shout out to Nick Moore shout out to the field goal unit for blocking the the Lions field goal unit Because you got to get as a field goal kicker The further you kick the ball it has to come off lower It has to be at a lower angle because if you kick it high then it's gonna end up falling short But to kick those four field goals the ball has to travel is that it has to start off a little bit lower so the fact that Justin Tucker was able to do that for a 66 year old field goal and the line held up and they didn't they didn't Allow the Lions to get their hands up and block it. That says a lot too So shout out to him now Lamar Jackson. I know everybody want to talk about offense Well, you know what? Let's let's let's get special teams out the way Sam Cook had a couple of good points cool Devin DuVernay Devin DuVernay, I was I was scared for him because when he had that fumble I was like, oh, yeah He's done that part return. That's a wrap But Ravens really they don't have many other options. You can put James Pro Shae back there now again save hands But you're not gonna get an explosive pump return from James Pro Shae You want he won't fumble, but you're not gonna get an explosive part So it's it's it's tricky. It depends on what you want. You want to protect the ball at all times, which is good Or do you want that possible? Expulsive play so Devin DuVernay he fumbled, but thank goodness that it ended up being a penalty on the Lions their rookie corner on special teams So Devin DuVernay was able to get a redo and he got a really nice pump return And then later on he got that touchdown, which he got both feet in it was just good catch good throw great play And so he made up for it now will he stay on the punt return unit moving forward? I don't think so. I don't anticipate it But again, I don't what other options do you have back there besides Pro Shae? Cuz Tyler Wallace while they could put him back there I just and he is a rookie so gotta keep that in mind But when he was back there, he looks sort of unsure of himself when they had him at punt return in the preseason So you definitely don't want somebody that's nervous They got to be like cool calm and collected because that's part of the time. That's a big play It's a potential big play and that big play could be either for your special teams unit or the opponent special teams unit So we'll see what they what they do back there, but on to the offense Lamar Jackson Lamar Jackson if you just and you'll be able to tell it when y'all watch ESPN NFL Network CBS NBC Fox Whatever wherever you watch your sports news that if you do watch it You'll be able to tell who actually watched this game and who didn't Because if when they speak about Lamar Jackson specifically in this game a lot of them are just gonna look at the numbers And they gonna be like oh Lamar Jackson. He had one touchdown one interception That's wasn't it wasn't really a good game from him But if you looked at the actual game Lamar Jackson was lights out for the first three and a half quarters He was amazing but he wasn't getting the help that he deserved and It started off with a mark Andrews He had a big dropper over the middle where he doled for the ball and dropped it. He made up for it though Hollywood early on had a couple nice catches But then he had a big job had he dropped the touchdown pass Lamar Jackson do it perfect pass Do it to Hollywood? He would have called it. All you had to do was catch it touchdown He's in the end zone already, but he dropped and I was thinking man that they it stung so bad And and this is an example of how Ravens They can be their own the biggest worst enemies their own worst enemies And and they have allowed these teams like again if Ravens cleans them stuff up or if they clean it up man They can be a great team and the thing is they're not even healthy yet They're not even healthy yet And they had the guys out with covert. They had the guys out on injured reserve These dudes not even healthy yet, man, and of course that they're never gonna be fully healthy But this team can be great. They got the potential to do it. They got the personnel They got the coaching staff, but everybody got to do their part Yesterday Hollywood didn't do his part He didn't do his part Now does this mean cut Hollywood? No, does this mean trade Hollywood? No And when I saw that from people, it's just like what are you thinking? What are you thinking? Did you forget last week? Did you forget the game against the Raiders that did? How quickly we forget these things? Because we get caught up in the moment We're all about the here in the now, but not the long term So it's just a shame when you see things like that He had a bad game my god Cam nail put it and perfectly when in the live stream yesterday today We all have bad days at work And that's true. We do We're not for our jobs. Whatever it is that you do whether it's your job your school and whatever it is that you do Every day is not gonna be the greatest day. You're not gonna perform great every single day So it's just important that you have a good bounce back game and a good bounce back attitude Well, yeah yesterday Hollywood the performance. It was bad. It was bad. He dropped two touchdowns two of them And he also dropped another deep pass So that like again And the thing with football is that it takes everybody For and that's what makes it so hard. It takes everybody for a thing to work everybody And what I mean when I say that It takes the center to snap the ball to the quarterback properly It takes the offensive line to block the defense properly It takes the wide receivers running the right routes the tight ends whether they blocking a running routes the running back Whether they blocking a running routes, it takes the quarterback And in the drop back to scan the field and whatnot and make the right decision Then it takes the quarterback to throw a good throw. It takes the receiver to make a good catch It's so many different moving pieces in one in each football play So when you have Everybody that's the the moving all the moving pieces are working and then one ends up falling short Kills the whole play and it can kill a team mentally too Because they could be like man, we did all this work. We were doing this and then it fell flat they fell flat and especially when Your offense is able to take advantage of the defense when y'all do everything right and Then something ends up happening and it all just falls apart So that's what happened with Hollywood with the three drops huge man. They were huge So, um, you can't do that. You can't do that and he knows Like if we know, you know, he knows he's the one out there playing He's the one out there playing and he's of course a wide receiver wide receiver job catch the ball He knows that already So, you know that this week He gonna be on it them jugs machine that he gonna be on it for sure I had to guarantee it and next week, you know, and I think what one of things that I think through him off The most was that this game was not primetime. I Was just telling my guy JT. I said the Raven should have just told him that it was a primetime game Oh them drops would have never happened But next week since we play at 430 or 425 or whatever Then since that's closer to primetime, then we're gonna we should expect Hollywood to have a good game We should expect it and then his boy Jerry Judy gonna be there, too I know he not playing but he'll be there so he gonna want to put on the show for his boy and what not I love that unless the Mars guy to since he's from down here south, Florida I'm a teddy bridge what he is to but anyway, we'll talk about that when we get there, but Hollywood just that it was a bad game from him yesterday straight up man. Nothing else to be said about it So he got a tight enough moving forward, but again, he knows that he knows that So Lamar on the the last time that he went to Hollywood the last opportunity The way he get the way he really give Hollywood opportunity He went to him in that direction was on that that terrible decision by Lamar that pick the interception And Lamar throughout this whole game He was just making great decisions great throws smart throws Then they were attacking they were attacking this lion's defense and I loved it They were passing more than running, but that's what this game called for every game is not gonna be the same game plan This game plan it it caught and what was working because it's important that if it's working Hey, don't fix what ain't broken the passing game was not broken. Just Hollywood was dropping He dropped He dropped some big plays too, but overall the passing game was working Guys were getting open Lamar was reading the defense. He was making a great throws doing this thing So G-Roll yesterday all but they were only like two plays that I didn't agree with yesterday There was one early on in the game It was like third in two where they went in red zone and I just I didn't I think they were gonna run I didn't I think they should have ran. I thought they should have thrown the ball I expected them to throw the ball But they ran and I just felt like that was just so Predictable and it just I didn't like that play call and then there was another one where not even a play call was bad But the formation I didn't like it was a third and five. I want to say is either I think it's in the third quarter. I forgot when I forgot when it was but it was a third and five I wanted them to come out five wide give them all a bunch of options to throw And of course, he'll have the option to run as well But though the formation that they had I forget what it was I gotta look at the game again to see it, but I just didn't like that formation other than that Giro did his thing did his thing He went with what was hot Now with Tyson Williams because there's been a lot of questions about him It appears that the Ravens this game Latavius Murray was their guy He was their guy Tyson Williams, he Didn't see the ball on the first drive Latavius Murray did and Devonte Freeman even did too But no Tyson Williams, but we didn't see him more later on in the game So I guess that's that's how they felt the Florida game was gonna should go for them We'll see how it is going forward. I feel like Ravens. I feel like Tyson Williams should have been the RB one But I feel like Ravens right now. They don't even have an RB one They got a bunch of our bees though But that was that a back to Lamar and Lamar showed again the clutch factor. He's literally shown a clutch factor all year this year He has given the Ravens potential game-winning drives every single game every single game everyone and Like in the Raiders game and the only game that they lost He gave them a game-winning drive and there were 32 seconds left on the clock All the defense got to do stop the Raiders. They didn't even have any timeouts. All you got to do is stop them That's it. Just stop them. They have no timeouts none Ravens defense couldn't do it They could not do it So With that being said Lamar he got the clutch factor. It's there It's there But he needs people to help him Everybody got to do their job if everybody does their job They got they this team man. I'm telling you man They can be great and y'all know I ain't got no purple purple shades on I ain't drinking the purple Kool-Aid But this team like realistically They just got to clean up some stuff Clean it up and they're moving forward. They could do some damage man. They really can Sammy Watkins. Um, he made a couple catches this game overall pretty quiet game from him Pro Shade he had a big catch in this game down the sideline where Lamar's rolled out to the right and Threw a laser to Pro Shade. He caught it Kept got both feet in bounds to and of course Duvenay with that big touchdown catch as well Duvenay and Pro Shade haven't really been involved much in the passing game It's been all Hollywood and Sammy Watkins and of course Mark Andrews Who had his best game of the season so far? Yesterday now he did miss that I Don't know if it was more Lamar What if it was more mark Andrews that missed touchdown it looked like it was more mark Andrews, but Either way, they they they missed it missed opportunity Miss and this was the game of missed opportunities man So many missed opportunities and and we talked about this in the preview for this game that Raven's gotta they gotta connect man They got to connect because if you are not connecting Then you allow the Lions to you're gonna allow them to stick around and then oh and two team and they're playing with nothing to lose Like even though it's early on in the season There's no disrespect to them, but they know that their season is done. I'm not done But that I thought deep down when they when they think about it deep down, of course They do want to compete, but I think deep down like Lions and Lions fans. They know like we're not doing nothing But those are some of the most dangerous teams to play and Lions showed that yesterday and and all they need is a couple of plays to go their way Build up that confidence and hey, they almost came away with a win yesterday Ravens let them hang around because Ravens they beat themselves up And you can't do that But anyway, I think that's that covers everything on offense Defense defense they were down Brandon Williams is showed in the run defense They were down Madi B. Gay. They were down Justin Houston Dailin Hayes. He left with an injury. They didn't have Jalen Ferguson as well Even though he hasn't played much so they had they had a lot of people out a lot of people out Jimmy Smith made his return Oh, hey, hey, oh but um the Ravens defense the run defense they They were getting gashed a couple times of course Brandon Williams whenever he's out. It shows It shows it shows it shows But the defense early on they were they were doing their thing They were a bend but not break defense because lions would get a little bit on them and then they'll be like alright That's enough no more and they were holding the Lions out of the end zone My lines weren't even getting field goals early on But then that all changed second half adjustments Khalif Raymond I call him I was calling him a little baby Willie Snead because he looked just like Willie Snead play like him at all and DeAndre Swift They both this is why second half adjustments are so important the Ravens defense they They were getting carved up in the second half And then but Lions made adjustments. They were like alright Khalif But we got to use these these screens man these screens they should work good these passes behind behind a line of scrimmage Oh, yeah, we we got something for them And it was working. It was working DeAndre Swift he was having a good second half Jamal Williams just really Lions offense period They were having a good second half, but the killers were well, I was about to say Hawkins and it wasn't Hawkins It was the killers were Khalif Raymond And Jamal Williams and DeAndre Swift now they did the Hawkinson Completely was a non-factor yesterday. He had like two or three catches for like ten yards He was a non-factor yesterday. They took him all the way out the game. They were like look We dealt with DeAndre Waller. We dealt with Travis Kelsey. We're not doing this a third week in a row So they completely removed him from the game. So that was great. Shout out to him But they they didn't have a plan for Khalif Raymond and Swift in the second half Swift he scored a touchdown that the play with Jamal Williams where he got his touchdown It it should have been a touchdown like two plays earlier by DeAndre Swift when he jumped over Ravens Defender and Stuck the ball out stretch the ball out should have been touchdown then But Jamal Williams, he ended up getting it Oh boy Anthony Avery had a quiet game. I think you got a penalty early on but that was before I was able to pull up the game But other than that he had a quiet game. So that's good. I'm all in Humphrey to quiet game But they yeah, they weren't really I don't think they were really attacking like the outside corners like that They were taking the inside though Patrick Queen a lot of miss tackles again And that's what he's been struggling with all season long miss tackles miss tackles miss tackles and getting pushed back to I Don't know what the solution for it will be Maybe it's just going over the fundamentals Maybe it's just yeah, maybe it's just Rob Ryan needs to go to fundamentals because I believe he's a linebacker's coach Maybe they need to just stick to the basics because Patrick Queen smart. He that knowledge is there man You could tell why why he took over at LSU It then the knowledge is there and that is in second year with a full training camp His understanding of the game is a lot better than it was last year and that comes with growth that comes with experience But the the fundamental part the the miss tackling has been it's been rough and and there's been a lot of it It's so important that you wrap up when you tackle me because you miss the tackle it can create a big play like there was one play where I Think it was a toss to the right and the Andre Swift He got to be he caught the ball And Adafi away he tried to grab his ankles and the Andre Swift kind of just like broke off of him a little bit But then Patrick Queen he had an opportunity and he just went with his with his form he did that and The Andre Swift he felt it, but he looked at it and just All right, I'm gonna go now and he like he hit it so It just you you got to wrap up man Malik Harrison I didn't see him too much. He didn't make one big tackle, but I didn't see him after that CJ Boy was out there for a little while too Didn't really notice him too much But yeah, that was that our defensive line for the the task that was upon them They They did I they did I because that that is a tough assignment because when you got so many guys out a lot of guys out Then yeah pass rush It's another day at the office Wink he was back to blitzing as expected And it's all about situational blitzing nothing wrong with Winxon and the blitz nothing wrong with that at all But it's all about picking the right situations to send the blitz to send five guys and send six guys to send How many you gonna send it's all about doing it correctly situationally every game. It's not gonna be the same every game And this game, I think Tavon young he got a sec Chuck Clark, I think he got a sec. I think that was it But be besides that they were getting there a little a little bit a little bit. They were getting to a Jerry golf a little bit Not too much, but yeah a little bit So yeah, it's just up and down game man Oh, I didn't even talk about the all I talked about a defensive line even talk about offensive line offensive line this game They were just up and down man Pass blocking up and down run blocking up and down As far as run blocking probably more downs than ups They just they weren't creating many lanes for the running backs, right? They just weren't creating many lanes at all For Lamar Jackson. He I think he led the team in Russian He had to it was the only way So he yeah, they just it was rough man and Lamar Jackson got the past blockers bad He got sacked four times four times for your court for Lamar Jackson to get sacked four times The only way that that happens if guys are coming in free That's it Because Lamar Jackson he has good pocket presence and you know Lamar Jackson. He can make people miss obviously So the fact that he a quarterback like him got sacked four times That tells you all you need to know about the offensive line yesterday That guys were coming in free untouched unblocked You get they they they got to fix it man Week one against the Raiders offensive line was bad week two against the Chiefs offensive line was great This this game they were right in the middle They were right in the middle. So they they took some from the Raiders game They took some from the Chiefs game. They're like, oh, let's do a mashup Right in the middle So they they got to get they got to get this thing man They got to get it going they they got a running running backs picking up picking up blitzes The center calling out the different guys who are blitzing Offensive line block it just everything got to get better but again They are their own worst enemy You clean up if your offensive line blocks better you give Lamar time He gonna get it done. We've seen it already We've seen it already He can make every throw you need him to make man everyone. We've seen it already Lamar He don't make bad decisions. He stopped turning the ball over This team is a lot better A lot better and again, this is all even even before the guys that are coming back This team can be so good man. They can be so good Gotta clean stuff up though. It's the little right now. It's the little things for the Ravens It's the little things That they can clean up again offensive line better pass protection The more Jackson stopped with the turnovers with Tyson Williams. It was the fumbling with him Maybe that's why they didn't go to him early on. I don't know But why receive obviously Hollywood at the catch of all Sammy Watkins to he be having drops to But Hollywood drops were just huge because they were too touched down in that huge plate, too But every any drop is big, but here's what bigger But yeah, why receive was tight and just hold on to the ball catch the ball That's it Greg Roman for the most part. He's been doing a pretty good job. He's been doing pretty good job Now on defense tackle the miss tackles is what they got to clean up The miss tackles and really defending the middle of the field. They got to figure that out because it's been tough the pass rush Let let let's see when Justin Houston comes back and of course matter bit. Let's see when everybody comes back Let's see next week But even that that passwords they got a study. They got to start getting home, man um It's just little things man Little things here and little things there and you do that this this team can be great And then on top of all of that the guys that they'll be getting back So anyway team keep it clean. I appreciate y'all. I love y'all. Um yesterday's game was Just wild as you all know, um, but I was glad to be able to watch it with y'all Thank you for coming through to the live stream Let's do it again. Shall we anyway?
