The boys are back this week with another fun filled episode starting exactly where we thought they would: discussing socio-geographic cultural stereotypes and which NFL team represents a historic country. The answers… will shock you. As they jump into the actual ball talk this week, Josh and Dante spend a bit of time recapping the Ravens vs. Browns week 18 game. The Ravens did exactly what we hoped they’d do and took care of business, beating Cleveland 35-10. Nate Wiggins secured his first NFL interception which he took for a touchdown, Lamar Jackson added to his already legendary season with a few more passing touchdowns, Derrick Henry closed the season just shy of 2,000 yards, and the game was kissed to bed by the sweet treat of 370-pound Michael Pierce intercepting Bailey Zappe becoming the third-heaviest player to ever record an INT. Dante believes that, despite all the good displayed by the Ravens, that this game was actually far from perfect and the Ravens have some kinks to iron out ahead of their playoff matchup this upcoming week. Thank God we played against Bailey Zappe and Dorian Thompson-Robinson. Lamar finished the season with the fourth highest single season passer rating of all time, trailing only Aaron Rodgers (twice), and Peyton Manning. Which then, of course, spurred the boys into another debate surrounding the MVP debate and who they believe should win the award. Moving on to the task at hand, the Ravens have a rubber match against the PIttsburgh Steelers for the AFC Wild Card this upcoming weekend. The boys cut a few promos and explain why every able body in Baltimore should be part of the noise at the bank this Saturday night. Josh gives his keys to victory and explains why we, both as a team and city, need this win badly. Dante goes through Pittsburgh’s numbers on the season and gives his keys as well. The boys wrap up with some chatting on the college football playoff heading into the semifinal, and Dante hypes up his Irish. They finish with some music recommendations and Josh talks about his upcoming shows, and we send you all into what will hopefully be the best weekend of our lives. Cheers to you!
