Could The Ravens Be A Threat Within The AFC North?

00:02 I mean, for AFC North odds,
00:05 I definitely like the Ravens here at plus 250.
00:08 I mean, no disrespect intended to Joe Burrow
00:11 and the Cincinnati Bengals.
00:12 They're awesome.
00:14 You know, they've had some great battles
00:15 against my Kansas City Chiefs throughout the years,
00:17 but the prospect of Lamar Jackson playing with three,
00:22 maybe even four, if you count Nelson Aguilar,
00:23 like actual NFL quality wide receivers,
00:26 staying healthy for an entire year,
00:28 and the biggest change has gotta be Todd Monken.
00:31 I mean, you know, Greg Roman
00:34 is a really good offensive coordinator.
00:36 The first year he gets into a town
00:38 and then he doesn't change anything.
00:40 The route concepts stay the same.
00:41 It's just, it's all the same thing
00:43 and other teams catch up very quickly.
00:44 I am so excited to watch Todd Monken
00:48 calling plays with Lamar Jackson.
00:50 The Ravens are really one of my biggest positions
00:52 heading into the season.
00:53 I mean, the one thing you mentioned,
00:56 which would scare me off, I mean, does,
00:58 is Lamar Jackson's health.
00:59 Remember this guy missed six games last year.
01:01 Didn't matter who he was throwing to.
01:02 And he missed six games
01:03 because he's got a lower leg injury/knee injury/
01:06 whatever you want to call it,
01:08 and he wasn't on the field.
01:09 So they won't win the division without him on the field,
01:11 regardless of who is that wide receiver.
01:14 I mean, the aforementioned Cleveland Browns,
01:16 just from a price standpoint, would get my attention
01:18 and a roll the dice to say,
01:20 if Deshaun Watson is 2020 Deshaun Watson
01:23 with the Houston Texans, a team that was terrible,
01:26 but yet he still put up MVP numbers,
01:28 that's probably the best play
01:30 as far as winning the division is concerned.
01:31 I don't hate the Ravens as far as, you know, at plus 250.
01:35 I think it's really smart.
01:36 I mean, I like the Vikings at plus 275
01:39 in the NFC North to win that division.
01:41 So I think the price is good.
01:43 It's just a question of Lamar Jackson's health.
