Today's News following the Ravens big primetime win. . .

"The Ravens continue to be one of the fastest-starting teams in the NFL. Baltimore became the first team to lead by double digits at any point in each of its first nine games of a season since the 2011 Green Bay Packers, according to ESPN Stats & Information research. The Ravens are just the third team to do so in the past 20 years, joining the 2009 New Orleans Saints and 2011 Packers — both of whom started 9-0. This just shows how close the Ravens were to a perfect start if they hadn’t had three fourth-quarter meltdowns."

Wide receiver: B

This was a good-not-great performance for the unit. Honestly, they didn’t fail the offense. Nobody did. They weren’t given many opportunities (wide receiver Devin Duvernay had only one target).

says the Ravens have the second best offense in the NFL.

“DVOA is a method of evaluating teams, units, or players. It takes every single play during the NFL season and compares each one to a league-average baseline based on situation. DVOA measures not just yardage, but yardage towards a first down: Five yards on third-and-4 are worth more than five yards on first-and-10 and much more than five yards on third-and-12. Red zone plays are worth more than other plays. Performance is also adjusted for the quality of the opponent. DVOA is a percentage, so a team with a DVOA of 10.0% is 10 percent better than the average team, and a quarterback with a DVOA of -20.0% is 20 percent worse than the average quarterback. Because DVOA measures scoring, defenses are better when they are negative.”

Who do you want to see the Ravens trade for?

Tomorrow marks the NFL trade deadline at 4:00 pm EST.

The Ravens have $3m in salary cap with the ability to create another $4m by restructuring Andrews and Zeitler If they desire.

Most of the players in these images would only have half of their salary due, which the Ravens could manage realistically. No bonus money travels with the player to their new team.

Brandin Cooks is another intriguing option.

Why isnt this play being talked about more?

It’s STILL not being talked about enough how insane this throw and catch was. An inch or two over Kendrick’s hands. Duvernay with a STUPID adjustment to this ball and the concentration/reflexes to reel it in. Play of the year so far. Lamar’s ball fake froze Kendricks JUST enough to sneak it overtop.

Welcome to Baltimore, Justin Houston!

Training Camp Day 1! Here we go! #RavensFlock

Since Baker Mayfield said “make him throw” the Ravens have averaged 38.6 ppg against Cleveland. Lamar has thrown 8 TDs and no interceptions with a QB rating of 136… not to mention 272 rushing yards and two more scores. 🎱

Mark Andrews, Darren Waller and Hayden Hurst all chilling is the wholesome content you needed on your feed.

Haha

Agree or disagree?

We asked. We received. Rashad Bateman. We love you. Thank you Eric.

Take our offense... hiYaaaaerrr

Watkins beat up on Richard Sherman in Super Bowl LIV. Watkins posted 14 receptions for 288 yards and a TD across three games that postseason. The Ravens don’t currently have an offensive player who has played in a championship game or Super Bowl. While Watkins isn’t a move that takes Baltimore over the top, he can play on the boundary, is a nuanced veteran receiver coming off back to back Super Bowl appearances and will improve the Ravens receiver room. He’s had injury concerns, but has played at least 10 games each of the last four seasons, and never missed more than eight games in a season. They’re better with him than without him, but still need to add a playmaking pass catcher early in the draft. If they do, they will have bolstered their line and receiving corps. A successful offseason considering their struggle to score points in the playoffs over the last three years.

The next domino has fallen. The Raiders signed Yannick Ngakoue to a two-year, $26M deal. Ngakoue will hit free agency again at 27 years-old.

Lamar Jackson is the most polarizing player in the NFL. Exhibit A:

Join us! Live on YouTube answering the mailbag!

Well... yeah

If the Ravens are going to make a run... as Mando would say... “This is the way.”

Ben “The Dream Crusher” Powers living up to his name ☠️

Lamar just skipping rocks at the lake late in the 4Q... wow 😳

@derekwolfe_95 might’ve had the low key play of the game. Biggest rushing lane Henry had all day. As soon as he hit the gas, Wolfe managed to wrap him up. Wolfe’s ability to make tackles while engaged with his blocker is truly insane. Wow.

@j52mad is just... wow... explosiveness is insane. Shows up every week. Ravens have a truly special young interior defensive linemen.

RACISM is rampant in the United States, why must it be in the NFL!

Dear Mr. Snyder,

Shakespeare in a play once wrote " What's in a name? that which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet".

Names mean many things to many people. A name that you can trust, a name that is important for it describes and represents who we are. Yet, a John Kennedy, a Martin Luther King, a Barack Obama, or a Dan Snyder, did not attain fame due to their names, but only due to the greatness that they possessed.

This why I am writing to you, to let you know that I and others can understand how strongly you feel about the name, but we also understand that what one sees in a name, another may view it totally differently.

To a great grandchild who family fought on the southern side of the Civil War, the Confederate flag may seem very honorable. Yet, for one who family fought and died on the other side, or who descendants were slaves, we must realize that this flag to them does not represent the same thing.

I can understand with you being White and Jewish that the name REDSKIN or the N-WORD is not offensive to you. Many people like you did not see anything wrong with segregation, Jim Crow, or even Slavery because it did not affect them.

What I am trying to say to you is simply this. What a wise Native American once said, you may have known me for many years, but you can never know me unless you have walked a mile in my moccasins. As black people today would say, it is a black thing, you would not understand. The truth is, if you are not Black or Native American, then you do not understand. Cause to understand how I feel or how things upset me, you can only do that if you are me.

As we grow older, we must realize that in time all things change. There was a time when you could call a Black man the N-word and all he could do was to bow down and say Yes Sir! The question that we must sit down and ask ourselves is simply this, is it worth all the controversy and future controversy not to make a change that we all know will someday eventually come.

Do we not already have enough to separate us in this country, questionable police shootings of unarmed Black men, Jewish and Black churches being attacked. People shooting up malls, concerts and even schools due to outright hatred and racism. Shooting people in the streets simply because they do not want them in this country. I am sure just like you who see nothing wrong with your views on this name. They probably see nothing wrong with their actions as well.

Therefore, I ask you to be a trailblazer and instead of condoning this racism, be the one to finally put an end to it. One who set aside his own opinion for the betterment of the team and the NFL. Who decided to change the name not only for the good of all sports, but for the good of all of America?

DICTIONARY.COM-
REDSKIN – [Red-skin] Noun, A disparaging offensive contemptuous term refer to a North American Indian.
N-WORD – Noun, A disparaging offensive contemptuous term used to refer to a black person.

REDSKIN- just like deerskin, rabbit skin, etc. Native Americans were lynched and skin like animals. They hung their bodies up in trees to try to scare Native Americans off their lands. The same way they lynched and cut off Black’s ge****ls to scare them. I hope that you and the fans of this team will agree that it is time to change that name.

In closing my friend, let me just say. Would a rose not smell just as sweet, if it was to be called another name?

Sincerely
Gregory St. James Mundy

Any word if we have been looking up Josh Kline? Not sure his asking price, but he played pretty good for the Vikings last year. Surprised he's still available
Ravens fans. Here a short 1 minute clip of Chad Johnson explaining the importance of WR fit for an offense. Please understand that The Ravens run the same type of INSIDE OUTSIDE offense the Patriots and Chiefs.

Last season we saw New England draft N'Keal Harry. A WR many Ravens fans wanted not even considering the role and fit he would be as an outside WR in an INSIDE OUT offense.

If you think the Ravens are using a 1st round pick on your favorite Outside WR you're not paying attention. Jerry Judy or Higgins could fall to 28 and neither would be more productive than a Ruggs, Viska or Reagor type of slot WR who can play outside when needed.
