Ravens, O's, Caps, food, games, and Batman
X going down right as NFL free agency stars is crazy.

And I’m calling it X now cause Twitter would have never done this to me.

Bring the Aggie to Baltimore!!!

Imo, he’s more of an inside guy as of right now but has the athleticism to 100% be an edge guy who rotates inside.

Him, Beeks, Jones is a lethal combo. Add in Oweh, Robinson, Isaac, whoever else and this pass rush is deadly on 3rd down.

Ravens play the Giants coming off a buy.

This should be the easiest game in the Lamar Jackson era. So they’ll find a way to keep it close and stressful and somehow lose.

But seriously, the Ravens should win like 45-7
Giants HC Brian Daboll expects Dexter Lawrence’s elbow injury to be “long term”.

Happy Thanksgiving guys!

How we ranking today’s football games? These went from 3 trash games to all having some juice now.

Dolphins are in the hunt facing a good Packers team. Caleb seemingly has found his footing going against a red hot Lions team. A backup bowl with Cooper Rush vs Drew Lock.

Nobody loves green dot talk like Ravens fans do

Kyle Hamilton will wear the Green Dot if Roquan Smith is out.

Ravens win Monday and the division is still very very very much in play.

The Steelers drag everyone down to play ugly football. Every game.

And the Browns beat them with experience!

Familiar Fears Overtaking Hope in Ravens’ Season
Ghosts of season’s past have drawn fear in the Ravens’ fanbase. Hope is being engulfed by familiar fears.

Best takeaway from the #Ravens game was the defense. And I think the Chargers is a perfect next test.

Great QB but the weapons around aren’t astonishingly great. Solid run game but good run D. Not to mention the whole Greg Roman thing.

Roquan being healthy matters a ton.

Reminder.

The Ravens could 2-4 and still have over a 75% chance to make the playoffs.

Granted if they do go 2-4, they probably won’t do anything in playoff but anything can happen.

Thoughts on the Ravens lost:

•Lamar playing his worst game of the season and Tucker misses are the two biggest reasons they lost. Not the only, but the biggest.
•Pass defense showed something real today.
•Not worried long term about the offense
•Really like the idea of a rematch at home. Can’t wait

Honestly, kudos on the ravens defense only allowing a field goal after getting terrible starting position.

Bounce back O.

Tre’Davious White is active for his Ravens debut.

What could his role look like today and in the future?

Pretty much my entire timeline is:

“Mike Tyson looks old”

What did yall expect from a 58 year old fighting a 27 year old? That’s just elder abuse man.

Hoped to see a highlight of Paul getting sat down, didn’t watch cause who wants to see an old man look old.

Tre’Davious Whites potential role in Baltimore.

Quick injury history, immediate impact, and long term possible outcome. #Ravens #Baltimore

All I'm begging for from the Ravens defense. Just be physical and cause chaos. Grab turnovers when the opportunity presents itself. Play more man.

At least have the pride and anger of a Ravens defense if nothing else.
Roquan Smith:
“I think the most physical team is going to win this game.”
