00:00Back in business are the Baltimore Ravens. Out of business are the Cincinnati Bengals.
00:04Joe Burrow, who somewhat, I guess you could say, healthy now, looking to get back for the stretch
00:09run. There is no stretch run because the Bengals have been eliminated from the playoffs and the
00:13Ravens now fighting with the Pittsburgh Steelers to win this division. 24-0 final. Joe Burrow
00:19threw 39 times yesterday, threw two interceptions, no touchdown passes here. You take a look at
00:24Jamar Chase. Well, he's not really upset about it. He got 16 targets, 10 catches for $1.32.
00:29But the Bengals were embarrassing. Same thing as always, right? The defense stinks.
00:34The Baltimore didn't have to do anything yesterday. 14-0 lead into the halftime break. It was a wrap
00:39from there. 24 carries for 189 yards, good for almost 8 yards per carry for the Ravens. Look,
00:45Lamar Jackson threw 12 passes in this game as they easily dispatched of the Bengals yesterday.
00:51I don't know where that franchise goes from here, but they are a mess on defense. A quarterback that
00:56says he's not having any fun anymore, Joe, where do they go? Well, at least we know they're home for
01:00the holidays.
01:01Well, I mean, listen, he told us during the week what exactly was going to happen in this game.
01:07I mean, it's, you know, when players tell you what they think, listen to them, Donnie. They'll tell
01:13you everything you need to know. And Burrow's, you know, up at the podium last week talking about not
01:19having fun and he knew very well what was coming here. And, you know, maybe the best part about
01:25this though is the list. We already knew the Bengals defense was awful. But let's be realistic.
01:31That might be the healthiest Lamar Jackson has looked in a little while here. I mean,
01:36he actually had some juice running the ball and you look like his legs were a little better under
01:42him there. I mean, in those kinds of conditions that, you know, made the throws, you know,
01:47maybe the best thing out of this game was the fact that Ravens fans looks like maybe Lamar Jackson
01:52finally looking healthy here at the right time during this stretch run.
01:57And how about that? 11 carries over 100 yards for Derrick Henry. You'd like to see that as well.
02:01Running back that wasn't having all that much success compared to last year. Same thing to
02:05Saquon Barkley, but that works out. Let's take a look at Joe Burrow. What was he saying in his
02:08postgame press conference yesterday? Do you still have confidence in the people in the front office and
02:13the coaching staff that they can get this roster in a place and this team in
02:17a place where that wouldn't happen next year? A lot of confidence. Why? Because I know how hard
02:22people work at it. We got the right people. Starts with players playing better. Today was me.
02:28From the outside, Joe, a lot of fans are going to just read it. They're going to say that the
02:33organization's top to bottom front office doesn't have enough people or the right people in place.
02:40You honestly feel that they do and why? This is a team effort, you know, at the end of the day.
02:46The players got to play better on the field. Today was me. I got to be better.
02:53What do you feel like you could have done better today? Everything.
02:56I love this because they're asking Joe Burrow, who again, is minted already. Like he's made so
03:01much money already. He's going to continue to make money. He's got his weapons at wide receiver.
03:05The defense stinks. But if anybody's like, do you have the right people in place? I really wish they
03:10were to reframe that question as, do you think a family owned business who just hires their own
03:14family and is notoriously cheap on scouts is going to help you get better in the near future?
03:18That's the question that was supposed to be asked there, Joe.
03:21Did that look like a man that was happy? Did that man, did that like he was just beaming with
03:28confidence with this organization, right? Was that, yeah, by the way, we should also mention that
03:34the Bengals are so cheap. They didn't even pay anybody to clean the snow off the seats in the
03:40stadium, Donnie. People got their seats and had to clean off their own seats, but they did clean,
03:47you know, the stairs and the walkway, but they didn't clean off the seats. How hilarious is that
03:53with the bank? I wouldn't be happy either. I'll tell you that right now.
