Ravens Ring of Honor
Pretty sure he just wants commentary from sports media people on something they're not qualified to comment on, nor should they nor the public care about.

My guess is that it'll "regress" in terms of production because I think our passing game will improve. Like, I believe Dobbins and Gus will still get theirs and will still be productive but I get the sense that this offense will be more pass-balanced if that makes sense.

I feel an improvement in the pass game and less restrictive alignments and more versatility out of the same alignments, will have the run game remaining strong, Lamar and dobbins and the OL and a pair of TEs should be enough to keep a competent run game but being able to both run and pass consistently out of 12 personnel is what I’m really hoping makes the difference.
Gonna see a bunch more 11 personnel this year too…
I hope we stay multiple in the run game and that monken retains some of the more destructive runs and concepts using pullers etc

Should be fun to watch. I believe that Monken will get the ball in the hands of ALL of his playmakers. He’s got playmakers at the WR position, the RB position, the TE position, and the QB, so we probably gonna see a mix of plays out of the 11, 12, and 22 formations. Call it the Monken salad.

I've heard they're both good. I guess it depends on if you want to see Chris Pratt as a plumber or a super hero.
I'm assuming Guardians would require more knowledge of what's going on in the MCU, while Mario you can go into blind.

I recommend the Super Mario movie. They kept it nice and simple while showing plenty of references from the various Mario games over the years. By the time I left the theaters, I understood why it was the highest grossing video game film of all time.
Thank you. I went and saw Super Mario and it was really good. I was concerned that I wouldn't like it but glad I was wrong.
