    Defensively, Anthony Weaver discussed the impact of Trey Hendrickson's return, the growing confidence throughout Baltimore's defense, and what the Ravens need to do to build on their impressive performance against the Atlanta Falcons.

    Defensive line coach Lou Esposito also explained why the Ravens defense is playing more connected football and how communication between players and coaches is helping the unit improve.

    Plus, we look ahead to the Cleveland Browns offense led by Todd Monken and Deshaun Watson, and what Baltimore must do to keep building momentum.

    • These Ravens Are DIFFERENT | Falcons Comeback & a New Era in Baltimore

      The Baltimore Ravens are showing us something DIFFERENT this season. After an incredible 30-23 overtime comeback victory over the Atlanta Falcons, it's becoming clear that this team under Jesse Minter has a different mentality.

      This is the type of game we've watched the Ravens lose in years past. Trailing by eight points late in the fourth quarter without Lamar Jackson, Baltimore needed everyone to step up. Tyler Huntley delivered two clutch touchdown drives, the offensive line dominated the trenches, and the Ravens defense made plays when it mattered most.

      Kyle Hamilton said after the game that the dark cloud hanging over this team has finally lifted. Are we witnessing a new era of Ravens football?

      In today's episode of The Flock Rundown, we're breaking down the Ravens' comeback victory, including Huntley's clutch performance, Derrick Henry and the rushing attack piling up over 200 yards against one of the NFL's best run defenses, and standout defensive performances from Malaki Starks, Mike Green, Tavius Robinson, Calais Campbell, and more.

      We'll also hear from Jesse Minter, Kyle Hamilton, Tyler Huntley, Derrick Henry, and Calais Campbell as we discuss what this victory means moving forward.

      The Ravens are 4-1, and this team is proving it knows how to finish games.

      The Ravens just made a MASSIVE move to stabilize their offensive line, trading for two-time Pro Bowl center Cam Jurgens. Baltimore finally lands a proven long-term answer at center, with Jurgens under contract through the 2029 season.

Plus, we go through Wednesday’s practice attendance and hear from Roquan Smith, Kyle Hamilton and Mark Andrews as Baltimore begins preparing for Bijan Robinson and the Falcons. Roquan explains why this will be a physical test for the Ravens front seven and Kyle talks about continuing to build on the defense’s progress.

      A LOT happening in Baltimore today. Let me know what you think of the Cam Jurgens trade and the Ravens’ outlook heading into Atlanta.

    • Lamar Jackson Injury Update: Ravens Still Beating Atlanta?

      Lamar Jackson is dealing with a sprained ankle and reportedly has only an outside chance to play Sunday night against the Atlanta Falcons. There is some encouraging news, though — the injury is not considered long-term or surgical.

      We break down the latest on Lamar, what his potential absence means for the Ravens, and why I still believe Baltimore can beat Atlanta even without their MVP quarterback.
