    Fresh Lamar Jackson will run all over us. Ravens will win comfortably

    I think Harris or Cashman can spy well enough.
    But not sure the defense can hold up the entire game

    Think Cashman is probably not playing based off what I've heard. Not totally sure though.

    Notice the hat?


    My best guess is that that is the color that replaced white. Otherwise, most things stays mostly the same.


    And I'd be more than happy with that.

    He can't help it because that's his NFL DNA and what got him the job in the first place inclusive with being a leader of male-men

    He could use an def. assistant as a decoy similar to how Reid does with Chiefs on offense

    Rather its the first or tenth game Meco is gonna be himself, and the defense identity is his calling card win/lose or draw

    Now if he was calling the offensive plays I would be extremely worried

    Texans need to set the tone early and come out physical on both sides and they will have a punchers chance to take down the Ravens

    Love this video--thanks for posting. I just realized, DP has a little Earl Campbell in him. The dude just keeps his legs churning and tacklers just bounce off him. Here's hoping he has a healthy and BIG year! Go eat some Raven DP!!

    Don't sleep on Jake Hansen, he's been making plays, but I am surprised he's listed as the starter.

    The Ravens are one of those teams that I just assume every year will have a very good defense, but I don't honestly pay a lot of attnetion to their personnel or offseason moves. How are they looking defensively compared to seasons past? Any reason to expect anything different this year?

    Just give me a halftime lead and I'll be satisfied with the subsequent L to follow..

    Nope.

    This is as automatic as it can for a lost. But then again, if Colorado can win....maybe?

    That's Slim Thug's Boss Life brand, he sells it on his websites. It has nothing to do with the Texans.

    I have high expectations for the Texans.............BUT, it's going to take a while to get healthy and build chemistry. Who knows what the Ravens will throw at the D, it could be a great time to catch them starting their new offense. I am not looking for a Win (yea, it would be great) I am looking for progress from the coaches and the team. I don't want to see any game clock issues or a slew of penalties, I do want to see the offense make strides and for Tank to have at least 1 "holy ****" play and see solid play from CJ. I want to see the D SWARM

    I am excited and to be honest, I just want them to be competitive and to show us a glimpse of what's to come.
