00:02 9.30am Eastern on Sunday morning, it will be not the Jacksonville Jaguars.
00:07 Wow, it'll be the Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans.
00:10 Ravens, four point favorites.
00:12 What's really stunning to me, Warren, as we've gotten to this point in the season,
00:16 is it's really hard to find these totals that are higher than like 42, 43 points.
00:21 Like this is, I thought we were in the offensive era of the National Football League.
00:25 Meanwhile, like 10 games, there are very little points expected.
00:30 Let's break this game down here.
00:31 Baltimore clearly wants to get right after that demoralizing loss to the Steelers.
00:37 Tennessee is another one of these teams, very hard to predict on a weekly basis.
00:40 Yeah, Tennessee's defense.
00:43 I'm going to start there.
00:44 Mike Rabel, he has some experience going up against Lamar Jackson and slowing this
00:47 offense down to the Baltimore Ravens.
00:49 But what they were doing back in those days in 2019, 2020, is they were simply trying to
00:54 come out and say, "Lamar Jackson, beat us with your arm."
00:56 And maybe he looked at the film from last week and saw that all these receivers are
01:00 dropping passes and that we can go ahead and play the same style of game plan that we did
01:05 back then in 19 and 20.
01:07 The difference is this is not Greg Roman's offense.
01:09 And I think that they're going to struggle because if they're daring Lamar to pass against
01:13 them, I think the receivers are going to end up stepping up in this game.
01:16 I think they're going to have some success here pushing the ball down the field.
01:20 There is a defensive lineman on the Tennessee Titans, T.R. Tartt.
01:24 Pay close attention to him.
01:26 I think he's listed as questionable on the injury report.
01:28 I don't believe he's practiced yet this week.
01:30 He's got a toe injury.
01:31 Did not play last week.
01:32 Splits with him out there versus off the field.
01:35 Night and day different.
01:36 This team got just absolutely destroyed on the ground last week by the Indianapolis Colts
01:41 when he was not out there on the field.
01:44 I think his absence could allow the Baltimore Ravens to have some more success on the ground.
01:47 But mostly I think Lamar is going to get it done through the air.
01:50 And then when you look on the other side of the ball, this Ravens defense has just not
01:53 really allowed very many points.
01:55 They've had a very strong overall performance.
01:57 I think they can limit in some capacity this Tennessee Titans passing attack as well as
02:01 the rushing attacks.
02:02 Slow down Derrick Henry.
02:03 Just four of 17 of the scoring plays against the Baltimore Ravens have been touchdowns.
02:09 That's the lowest rate in the NFL.
02:11 Meanwhile, the Tennessee Titans defense has allowed the fourth highest rate of touchdowns
02:17 to be scored against them.
02:18 I think the Baltimore Ravens have more success inside of the red zone.
02:21 They've got a better red zone offense.
02:23 The fifth best in the NFL.
02:25 I think they're going to be able to put up some points here.
02:27 I just don't know if the Tennessee Titans are going to be able to keep up with them.
