didn't come to see him there were so many flags drown penalty Flags come on man nobody trying to see you Otis like we didn't come to see you we came to see the Ravens and the Chiefs I mean which otherwise was a fantastic game but I had a hard time enjoying it especially in the first half because they kept throwing the damn flag this whole illegal procedure bit or illegal formation with the offensive lineman not breaking the the waistband of the center I'm over it like you called it on Ronnie Stanley what three times in the first half I'm over it I get it it's a point of emphasis for the NFL but it takes away from the entertainment value of the damn game Sorry but other than that good morning Smalls other than that good morning I'm glad we got that off our chest and I'm with you that was incredibly frustrating and so was the end of this game for me I wanted to see the Ravens get that touchdown and have an opportunity to win the game it was so dramatic up until the final seconds Lamar Jackson with two opportunities that he had to to uh put his team in the position to at least potentially tie the game um but gosh I cannot believe that once again the Kansas City Chiefs look just as good as they've always been Xavier Worthy is going to be a problem we knew the speed but seeing it in action with Patrick Mahomes C so you kept saying that you think that this was going to be an elevated version of what we saw from the Kansas City Chiefs last season and I think you're exactly right which is a problem for the AFC particularly the Baltimore Ravens who once again right there but cannot break through versus the Chiefs I'm so annoyed that Isaiah likeley who was awesome last night of the Baltimore Ravens has Kevin Durant toe I'm so annoyed by that when Kevin Durant was on the line that game against a bucks with the Nets like that's what it reminded me of last night because if his toe is like an inch before the line the end of The End Zone there I think we would have had the biggest and most intriguing decision of the entire NFL season I don't know that there would have been a decision more intriguing than opening night after a lightning delay at 20 726 with no time left on the clock after all the penalties that you just mentioned after Lamar's ninth 200 plus passing 100 plus rushing game of his career after momes had so many missed opportunities I thought in Kansas City we John Harbaugh put up the two yeah and we would have had a two-point conversion for a win or a loss at the end of regulation and we were robbed of that last night yeah that sucks man I it was awesome almost the play reminded me of when Dez Bryant was playing against my New York Giants and he came down on a Hail Mary with the football and his hand and his you know his backside hit the back line of the end zone and it ended up being an incomplete pass so we won the game but he actually made the catch so like it was terrifying but it reminded me of that play and it just goes to show you that when you're playing against the Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes you have zero margin for error you have zero Marg like most teams you can get away with making a couple of mistakes you can get away with the turnover that leads to points for your opponent but not against this dude most teams you might be able to survive having more penalties than them and Come Away with the win not with this dude like the Kansas City Chiefs are different and and I will contend that this is the best Chiefs team that Patrick Mahomes has had in the last three years and it's on the board for being the best Chiefs team that Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes have had since Mahomes took over as being the starting quarterback this offense has everything you need m i mean you got the Deep vertical speed with Xavier worthy who gives you shades of DeShawn Jackson when Andy Reid had him in Philadelphia you got Rashid rice being able to work the short to intermediate zones against linebackers and safeties he proved to be a huge mismatch and then when everything goes to hell and the play breaks down there's still that special connection between Mahomes and Travis Kelce so this offense has a chance to be the most dynamic Chiefs offense that we've seen in the Patrick Mahomes era and that has to be scary that has to be terrifying for opponents in the AFC and they're coming off a Super Bowl season where they were good not great and now we have an elevated version of them as of what we saw last year as they're going for the three Pat which is crazy but we talked a lot yesterday about if this game meant anything to Lamar Jackson week one even though it's obviously an opponent that you would like to beat they're the measuring stick they're the team that got the best of you last season in the AFC Championship game we we talked about If This Were to matter at all in the grand scheme of things when we look at the totality of the season after what the dramatic conclusion to the game last night do we still think it does at least I thought it did oh it absolutely does it just confirms everything that I said about that game on yesterday's show that was a must-win game for the Baltimore Ravens if you don't believe me then why the hell you think John Harbaugh is going for two why why do you think he's going for two if you don't believe me listen to isaa likely sound bik at we have which um it I'm going to set this up and tell you when I first saw this and heard this this morning I wanted to double check that it was an AI not alen Iverson like artificial elligence like I I thought this was fake the guy was awesome awesome last night nine catches 111 yards oh and his best work was as a Blocker in the Run game and he had a 49 yard touchdown okay so this is the best game of this guy's life and this is what he said about Kansas City and Baltimore afterwards would do you take away from a competitive game like that against this I'd say this is probably the worst game we going to play all year so if this is the best that they got I mean good luck in the postseason do you realize who you're talking about you're talking about the Kansas City Chiefs if this is the best they got good luck in the postseason are you serious you have one great game I was ready to come on here today and say wow you know what the Mark Andrews Isaiah likely combination all of a sudden looks like another great tight end convers combination didn't end as well in New England uh but that they had uh no I'm I'm not I'm not making light of that I'm saying that that the best dual tight end combo we saw in years was New England that's what I'm saying I'm not getting involved in real life stuff just about football it was but I can't go there today because what are you doing you don't think momes and Kelsey and Chris Jones are going to realize that cuz I I I agree with him on one thing I wasn't impressed with Kansas City last night I was not overly the amount of missed opportunities was too much for a team that good and I had this moment this morning where I'm driving in and I'm like what is wrong with me why do I care that Kansas City missed the opportunity they still won they're going to be fine who who cares like oh they missed Mahomes threw an interception early in the game they they set up for field goals multiple times when they should have actually not done that late in the game they gave Lamar a chance to win it which they should have been able to figure out a way of getting a first down Baltimore used up their timeouts etc etc they didn't actually do the little things to win that game last night they did a lot of big things to win big plays and Isaiah likely does that what is wrong with you to say something like that they better be ready they better watch out no you better be ready cuz you always lose to them this Kansas City chief Squad this Corp finds a way to turn it on and win these games in a way that I haven't seen in quite some time last year I didn't even think that they were a team that could go deep into the playoffs and they win the Super Bowl they just find a way to get it done all the time and it it's frustrating to me because I want somebody to be a true competitor to them I want there to be a rival but Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs continue to get the best of all of their peers but it frustrates me because the Ravens have that opportunity they had it in the AFC Championship game and they deviated from their identity and what they had as a strength and that they could exploit as a weakness for Kansas City and last night too they're in a position there at the end of the game Lamar Jackson has the ball in his hands and he can get it done and then he misses those two throws it's frustrating for me that you have these opportunities for other teams to get the best of the Kansas City Chiefs and the chief put themselves in a position to win and the other teams don't capitalize on the opportunities no they don't capitalize on the opportunities and I guess the most frustrating part for me is that the Ravens continue to play outside of their identity when they match up against Kansas City and Patrick Mahomes like I don't I don't understand how Todd monin gets away from the Run game that early in the game especially when you had so much success on it on the opening drive right the Run game proved deadly I mean you have the combination of Derrik Henry slamming the ball between the tackles and then Jackson using the quarterback Zone Reed and keeping around the end that was working for you I agree I mean when you you had the Chiefs on their heels especially on that first drive where you overcome multiple third and long situations because of penalties Lamar Jackson does his thing you find a way to overcome that and then of course you come right back with the running game last night Lamar Jackson has what four designed run plays to go along with 12 quarterback scrambles guess what he ran the ball more than anybody on the Ravens Derrick Henry only had 133 carries Z flowers had a couple of carries Justice Hill had a carry so you mean to tell me that Lamar Jackson has three more carries than your lead running back Lamar Jackson is tied for the like has as many carries as anybody else on the team combined those types of things can't happen if you're going to try to beat the Kansas City Chiefs if you're going to try to win a championship that formula don't work you've tried that already you got to do something different Todd monin I agree you that's that is so maddening to me and at this point you got [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] that [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] nothing [Music] [Music] down for [Music] [Music]
