00:00that we were talking about one of the other upsets of the day Ravens starting

00:09their season 0-2 and I mean the numbers and what the market had eyeing

00:14this team heading into this season is probably almost up in flames at this

00:18point but it sounded like it was a massive loss Raiders walk away with this

00:21one 26 to 23 Garner Minshew 279 passing yards one tutty one interception on the

00:27other side Lamar Jackson 270 over 247 passing yards one touchdown one

00:32interception a lot of mirrored statistics here for both of these teams

00:35but what was the biggest surprise in this one and how the Raiders ran away

00:39with it you know biggest surprise was the Ravens inability to close it out and

00:45you know they were up by 10 points in the fourth quarter I showed some stats

00:49the Raiders were oh and 30 or whatever was their last however many games being

00:53down 10 plus points in the fourth quarter inability to close out getting

00:57picked apart by what is largely considered a below average quarterback

01:02with a below average receiving core and they just couldn't like weather the

01:07storm essentially and just hold them off for X amount of time the Ravens right

01:11now are still the favorites when the AFC North are plus 185 they were plus 120

01:15before today's game and I was very very interested in taking a position on the

01:20Ravens prior to today's game I didn't end up doing it because I thought the

01:23Ravens could bounce back and win this game against the Raiders and there was a

01:27good chance that the Bengals would be sitting at 0 and 2 if they were to lose

01:32against Kansas City which they did so I was thinking I don't believe in the

01:36Steelers as being a true threat to win the division and the Ravens would be

01:40that team at plus 120 I said you know what I'll hold off on it I'm not big on

01:43futures I don't it's not a great number but now they're sitting about plus 185

01:47I do believe the Ravens are the most talented team that division I do not

01:51think the Steelers will continue yes they have a phenomenal defense but they

01:55can't score so ultimately the Raven the plus 185 are really piquing my interest

02:01for the division
