00:00And in case you missed it, Ravens get the narrow escape 35 to 34 and they do not have

00:08to go into overtime yet again in this matchup, but what a great primetime game we had the

00:12opportunity to watch.

00:13You got Lamar Jackson who was only sitting at 65 passing yards heading into halftime,

00:19comes out on the other side with 290 passing yards, four touchdowns, no turnovers.

00:23The biggest thing for me is the yardage for both of these quarterbacks and no interceptions.

00:28Encountering that, you got Burrow, 428 passing yards, four touchdowns, and again, I parrot

00:33the fact that there's zero interceptions with all of the monster plays we saw down the field

00:39tonight.

00:40Also something to keep in mind, run game limited on both sides here, so that's also what kept

00:44this game very interesting, but Chase Brown, everybody who had him for rush receive combined

00:48or really saw that shortage coming in, 52 receiving yards through nine receptions, pretty

00:53nice play there.

00:54Tanner Hudson coming over the bigger game.

00:55And I said it.

00:56If you wanted to just go Hudson for Hudson and just celebrate the fact that the Hudson

00:59last name is fantastic, then moving that line at halftime was probably a fun idea.

01:04I'm talking to some of the guys that wrote me on X, but more importantly, what does this

01:09game say about the Ravens and their compete down the stretch of the season?

01:13Because we were talking about it before we went to the break, 34 points that they let

01:15up, but you and I were also having an interesting conversation during the break about like,

01:20where does this measure them?

01:21Where's the margin between them and like a Buffalo Bills team if they're going to let

01:24this many points on the board?

01:26And yet they have a great offense.

01:28So if they're, if they're run defense, their run defense is good, right?

01:33Their run defense is allowing fewer than 90 yards per game.

01:36And some of that is game script because their offense is so good.

01:39They get out these giant leads and then opposing teams have to pass the ball and they simply

01:43can't run it.

01:44So they're just again, game strip, they're just not giving up a lot of rushing yards,

01:47but then we actually have a past defense of the Ravens.

01:50That's actually terrible.

01:52So when teams play from behind, they actually can come back into the games easily because

01:57they're just bad.

01:58So when I'm looking at the Ravens, I'm like, you know, are going to opposing QB passing

02:04attempts the safest way to go just because they have to throw the ball, A, because they're

02:09playing from behind and then B, it's actually easy for them to move the ball in the air.

02:13So I spoke about Joe Burrow over 36 and a half attempts.

02:17He had 34 completions tonight, he had 56 attempts.

02:21So when we're looking at the Ravens, whoever they play in the coming weeks, I'm going to

02:24be looking at attempts very, very heavily and probably completions as well because they

02:28can just move the ball.

02:30We don't care about the running game.

02:31And yet Chase was held in check today on the ground, even with 13 attempts, we're going

02:35to see opposing quarterbacks rack up stats against the Ravens.

02:39So that's one thing I want to know.

02:41I wish we could do a video and video of when we were doing the pregame show, when I spoke

02:45about the quarterbacks.

02:46And I think I specifically said, there is a scenario where Joe Burrow goes over all

02:51of his props, which he did, his attempts, his completions, his yards, his touchdowns,

02:56the Ravens still win the game and the Bengals covered.

03:00All of those things happen tonight.

03:01The SGP I spoke about that one, the SGP Adam spoke about one, the point being tune into

03:08the pregame show.
