00:00How do you feel about, this week has also been about, Joe and I have talked about the
00:04Josh Lamar thing, and we talked to Brian Wacker, the Baltimore Sun in Baltimore, about these
00:09twists and turns of the Lamar story, whether or not he's going to play the injury and all
00:13that.
00:13For Josh, he's always playing, knock on wood, he's always playing.
00:17And for Lamar, it feels like the Ravens themselves can't quite figure it out, and I feel like
00:21that's got to lead to uncertainty.
00:24I don't know.
00:25I don't know if they're getting tired of it, but it feels like it's a constant storyline
00:29for Baltimore.
00:30Yeah, Jeremy, it really is.
00:32And I spoke with Vinny Serrato, who's a co-host in Baltimore, former NFL front office executive
00:39within Washington, and his phrase was, only Lamar knows when Lamar's healthy enough to
00:47play.
00:48I mean, let that sink in a little bit.
00:50Only Lamar knows.
00:51That feels like he's going to tell you, A, he's going to tell you, which, okay, is fine.
00:57You certainly want the feedback of the player, but it feels like it goes deeper than that.
01:01And I think the part that really caught me was a response to, I think the question was
01:09asked along the lines of what, last Saturday, what we saw where he, Lamar, was trending toward
01:20playing all week long.
01:21And then the question, and then Saturday he shows up, he's not playing.
01:26So out three games in a row.
01:27And then the question was asked of Jesse Minter during this past week about whether this was
01:31like a surprise shot.
01:33I think the word shock was, and he, I think the, he answered it to the, with words to the
01:38effect of, yeah, you could say that.
01:39Well, okay, that's not good when the head coach isn't entirely certain as to your status.
01:45But I, there is this other part of Lamar that says he's got to be fully able to do in
01:52his
01:52mind to do everything he's ready to do.
01:55And if he's playing and if we see him out there Sunday, and I think we will, then that's
02:00a version of Lamar that could be a big problem for the Bills.
