Although we can blame @Militant X 1 for the Ravens not having the #1 seed in the AFC, because if he didn't go away, we would have won some of those games. However, we can also thank @Militant X 1, because if he didn't go away, we may not have had Lamar Jackson starting the last seven games of the season. I'm a forgiving person, so I'll give Mili the benefit of the doubt. Especially since I like vacations.
 
I’m really pissed off I forgot to post it here first but as @Grim and others know as I was digging for my random facts I figured out Lamar would be the youngest qb to ever make the playoffs and the only one under 22.

What is funny and maybe not known is that his birthday is on the 7th. He will be the only qb to win a playoff game at 21, which means if it was last year on Sunday he would have turned 22 already (if he was a year older ovi) So if he wins he can celebrate the next day twice as much.

Now this is my cooler random part, the guys record he is breaking is the one he’s compared to most, Vick is the current holder. Another one of the youngest? Well the other guy on our roster in RGIII.

Even better, another rookie qb for the ravens had his birthday during the playoff run in flacco.
 
We legit play all the teams that we can beat away, at home smh but then got rams, kc, seatte and mia on their turf..
Seriously. Last year many were complaining about the schedule. No one knows how tough thr schedule will be until the season begins. I had the Ravens 10-6 or 11-5 this season. Many had them missing the playoffs, although it certainly didn’t happen the way I thought it would.

Yes the week is way too week to week let alone year to year to predict bad or good teams right now

Naw not really.. sea gonna be tough at home long as they have russ wilson..mia has been tough at home for the longest.. and i dont see kc nor rams falling off to the point where they are a below avg team
 
It certainly does and I was also a huge fan of Goedert, so it has even more interesting reading on my end.

its cool to see akins and herndon up there too tbh - they were both completely side-swiped by the NFL media cognoscenti so i only even found out about them as prospects really late in the day after doing a scour of the depths of the draft grades for every position of Lance Zierlein's database to see if i could find anyone else to research and watch and add

those guys were both buried - Herndon for lack of usage and "rawness' and Akins was buried down as a 7th/priority free agent according to most media analysts and mostly ignored due to being a 26 year old rookie...

looks like the NFL got it right though so far - 4 of those 5 were in the first 5 TEs off the board - and Herndon was the 7th after Ian Thomas...

the only outlier was Mike Gesicki so far

maybe there's a reason most media scouts work in the media and not as scouts
 
With how well bozeman has been progressing I think he takes the starting LG spot next year. If yanda doesn’t retire. The guards should be in good shape

We desperately need a C and replacement for Yanda.
