00:00A very difficult game to call, I would say, I mean, it's just two teams giving points
00:08to one that could easily cover.
00:09You mentioned the Ravens made a lot of mistakes in the game that they played the last time
00:13out.
00:14I don't know.
00:15It seems like a tough one for me.
00:16But either way, I think when you look at it, the Chiefs have sort of dominated the series.
00:20They beat him in 18.
00:21They beat him in 19.
00:22They beat him in 20.
00:23The Ravens barely won in 2021.
00:27You know, I'm not asking you for your stone-cold lock here, Vinny.
00:30I'm not going to do that.
00:31This is a tough one.
00:32But do you have any opinion, any lean at all on what you think happens?
00:35Yeah, I think the Chiefs keep that in mind from last year.
00:39I mean, that was kind of not what they expected.
00:41It didn't really affect them in the end because they end up winning the Super Bowl again.
00:45But when you look at this, I think they want to send a message to the AFC that it's going
00:49to be really hard to take them down this season.
00:52You think the Ravens are among the handful of competitors with the Bengals and Bills
00:57and maybe the Dolphins that could maybe push them at some point.
01:00But if they come out and make a statement here, it says, OK, we're the team to beat
01:05for this three-peat, so to speak.
01:07And again, I think they're going to be fired up and ready to go.
01:10Remember last year, they didn't have Travis Kelsey.
01:11They didn't have Chris Jones in the opener.
01:14Those guys are all ready to go in this.
01:15They're well-rested.
01:16So I think the Chiefs are going to come out and play really well in this one.
01:20And keep in mind that I think one matchup that you're going to look at is that new look
01:24offensive line for both teams here.
01:26The Chiefs are breaking in a rookie left tackle.
01:29They've lost some past rushers on the Ravens side, so that could help the Chiefs as they
01:33really like their new guy there.
01:35And then you look on the other side, some offensive line issues starting a bunch of
01:38guys that are unproven up front in front of Lamar Jackson.
01:42So in the trenches could be the sneaky way to decide what team has more offensive success.
