00:00look for baltimore super bowl favorites right first game of the year their favorite in buffalo

00:06who are now the super bowl favorites last week their favorite in kansas city these are not

00:11things that teams can do lightly well you pick your head up now week number five they're a home

00:16underdog to a houston texans team that is also one in three how do we get here a defense that

00:23is falling apart by its play and by injury and then a lamar jackson injury to add on top of that

00:29lamar jackson will be out for today's game and potentially beyond that joe and i think that is

00:35maybe how you really attack this conversation lamar could miss the next two games they're at home

00:44but against the texans and the rams the ravens are still favored at a minus price to win the north

00:50make the playoffs where are you right now on the baltimore ravens i think they're searching for

00:56answers number one i think they got exposed a little bit uh last week by by that front seven

01:02of kansas city and proved that lamar still has a long way to go when he gets pressured

01:06in the passing attack that offensive line broke down they contained derrick henry he carries

01:1142 yards he became a non-factor so for me i think there's a number of different question marks not only

01:18that but the defense can't stop anybody kevin and that you know as good as lamar can be and derrick

01:24henry if your defense is a sieve and giving up 30 and 40 points per game and getting abused for 224

01:31rushing yards by detroit and others by by buffalo in the in the fourth quarter what does that say

01:37about your identity as a ball club and again that falls on john harbaugh he's this great head coach but

01:43he can't coach defense all of a sudden and get this group to play i mean i understand there's injuries

01:48but everybody has injuries in the nfl the bills and sean mcdermott were decimated right and they

01:55still find ways to keep the gauge and keep wins going i understand he's one of the best playmakers

02:00in the nfl but you have to find ways to grind it out utilize the players that you have it's cooper

02:06rush today again it's good it should be a heavy dose of derrick henry on the ground in the receiving

02:12game hopefully uh but we'll see i mean again do i think this team can make the playoffs right here

02:19yes because the afc north is so bad you see how bad jake browning and that offense are zach taylor's

02:26on the hot seat they're searching for answers i don't believe aaron rogers and pittsburgh are a complete

02:31team we see what cleveland is today yeah rebuild yeah they could be nine and eight but but are you

02:39is this a team that's going to compete with the best in the afc right here right now no so uh it's

02:47so frustrating i think to see all of this play out because i'm just starting to think about the joe

02:56burrow injury and it's driving me crazy because that team really had an opportunity this year but

03:01that's not really the story of this situation the ravens injuries are now the story but

03:09healthy baltimore has not met the level of expectation no the defense has been very very

03:16bad and enters this game you know mattabuke is now out for the year okay we have kyle hamilton

03:23questionable marlon humphrey out roquan smith out ronnie stanley might miss this game the left tackle

03:30we know lamar is going to miss this game so for the ravens we know they've not met the level but

03:36it is now about will they make the playoffs and then therefore will they win football games right

03:42so it starts today and joe i don't know what side you're on in this game we can get more into this

03:48but i look at this and if i'm a fool then so be it i love the texans in this game i don't know what

03:58we're doing here what is this number joe what is the gap between cooper rush and lamar jackson if i

04:06have to hear more about how cooper rush ah he filled in admirably for dak prescott lamar dak huge gap

04:12big style gap like is lamar cooper rush not worth six seven points you would think i i think it's just

04:20a mindset oh derrick henry could take this team over and potentially pull out and grind out a victory

04:26but again you're talking about a front seven that's pretty good in run support they contained

04:30bucky irvin when they played tampa in that matchup they made second half adjustments they didn't

04:35from a defensive perspective houston is above average so i i think when you look at this

04:40game and you say okay quarterback advantage stroud over rush you know when you look at offensive line

04:46you probably will give it to baltimore let's just say right defensive line all houston secondary houston

04:53right now so how is baltimore going to move the football and win this game not only that the

05:00total is 40 and a half this is a defense that got absolutely decimated and the only thing that could

05:05allow baltimore to win this game is if domiko ryans goes with that mentality why try to win games 40 to 20
