Welcome home. We are W, N, S T AM, 1570 towns for Baltimore and Baltimore. Positive it is. Got new logos. I got new screenshots and sunshine over Baltimore. We’re gonna get the Maryland crap Kate tour back out on the road. Brought to you by the Maryland lottery at the Raven scratch off spin. Been a lucky batch. At least. I thought it was like at the moments last week, and nobody yelled, I won. I won. I won. Also our friends at Jiffy Lube, multi care get Luke back and forth to Owings Mills. We got baseball news going on. Things are happening in the marketplace. Clearly, we have an election going on this week. You hear some election debates conversations, as well as some archival stuff here that I think is of interest in and around the election and in and around this week, as well as a quick, quick, quick turnaround for the ravens, as quick as it gets. Good thing that Lamar took most of the fourth quarter off on Sunday afternoon, the oyster tour is out. Curio wellness is our big sponsor for that, along with our friends at Liberty, pure solutions. They do clean water. One 800 clean water is the way to find them. They do my well water. And I tell you, man, I was a little nervous about the Broncos thing, talking to people. They didn’t play anyone. This was going to be the big test for them. All the guests we had last week, Brandon Stokely, Mike case, these great, great insiders of the Broncos are like, Well, we’ll see, we’ll see, we’ll see. Look, it looked like a game for like a quarter or a while, and it like went from like nothing to a lot real quick. And it was an impressive home victory. I don’t know what it means defensively for all that it encompasses for them and this quick turnaround, but I like four touchdown victories. I like having the quarterback you debate whether to send them out there in the fourth quarter or not. It was quite the walk over. Was an impressive win.
Luke Jones 01:52
It definitely was. And I think this to what you just said, this is one of those games where you’re trying to figure out, okay, are the Broncos for real, or are they a good, bad team? And I think we probably figured out it’s a little more towards the latter. And look, the Ravens deserve all the credit in the world. And once again, we saw this offense is extraordinarily difficult to stop. We talked about this last week, the loss in Cleveland. It felt like the offense did not play well, and they scored 24 points. That talks about the standard, that speaks to the standard that we’re talking about here, where I just think it’s so incredibly difficult to stop this group from Lamar Jackson and Derek Henry on down to zay flowers and anyone who’s out in a pass route. And now you add Deontay Johnson to that mix, although he played a pretty limited, a pretty limited number of snaps on Sunday. But I just think it’s extraordinarily difficult to stop this offense. You’re not going to stop it. It can you get some stops? Is the question? Cleveland was able to do a little bit of that, and we saw what happened Denver after that opening drive, you get the quick interception and then give up the sack on third down, takes you out of field goal range. It’s a disappointing start. I mean, they didn’t get stopped again in terms of when the game was still close, whatsoever. So it’s a fantastic offense. We’ve known this. Lamar Jackson missed two days of practice this past week, didn’t run the ball at all. Didn’t seem like he wanted to really even run the ball. There weren’t any design runs really baked in there to the degree that you expect even now, compared to where he was a few years ago in his career. Did have the 11 yard scramble at one point, but that was not a part of the game, and he goes 16 for 19, for 280, yards, three touchdowns, fourth perfect passer rating of his career. I mean, you have that. You have Derek Henry, you have Justice Hill, you have zay flowers, who, by the way, go look at his numbers since the start of October. We’re talking about one of the best wide receivers in the NFL. I mean, he’s, he’s approaching that territory. He’s getting into that territory where you’re going to start talking about him, not as the best, but at least in those top couple shelves, as far as the best wide receivers. That’s what say flowers has been doing for five weeks now. And the one week he didn’t do it was the game in Tampa where he hurt his ankle early on. So really impressive. And on the flip side, we’ve been talking about it, and I mentioned it on social as we got into probably the early stages of the fourth quarter. This defense, this past defense specifically, does not need to be great. This offense is so special. This is the best offense the Ravens. It’s shaping up to be the best in franchise history, and I know that’s not an incredibly high bar over the history of the franchise, but they’ve got some really good offenses with Lamar Jackson at quarterback. So to have that kind of offense, the bar doesn’t need to be that high for the past defense don’t pay. Break, you can bend and you can bend, and you can give up field goals, and you can give up yardage, but don’t break. And I think one thing that was encouraging from Sunday’s performance, although Bo Nicks missed some plays, there’s no doubt about that, but they were able to get a couple stops in the in the third quarter. They get the fourth, you know, they get get the stop near the goal line. That was progress to me in the sense of just be mediocre, just be decent with your past defense. If you can get to that level, we’re not talking about top five or top 10. That’s even necessary. If you can do that, it’s going to be extraordinarily difficult to beat this football team. So encouraging performance, knowing they have the quick turnaround, knowing we’re going to be talking about Cincinnati here very, very soon, and playing the Ravens. Me play in Cincinnati very soon, but they certainly bounce back in emphatic fashion. And the Denver Broncos, I’m more inclined to say really good, bad team, or however you want to describe it like that, but their chance to prove themselves, they certainly fell flat.
Nestor Aparicio 06:09
Luke, I would say if, if you’re calling them a good, bad team, what would he call a mediocre
Luke Jones 06:14
Sure, I was just trying to be public. Well, yeah, I,
8Nestor Aparicio 06:18
you know, I think we, there’s no such thing as eight and eight anymore, right? You can’t straddle the fence. You have to be eight nine or nine and eight. So our eight, eight and one, perhaps, but they certainly feel the part of that. And I, you know, I see where Peyton’s keys is on that team at this point. And by the way, I, I didn’t give a fashion tweet before we get back to the game and a 31 point blowout. Um, look to the AFL, for me, and not in a good way, not in like, a charger throwback, way more and sort of, uh, Floyd Little wouldn’t have, like, those, those pants for me in the early 70s. Um, I want to talk it. You said, encouraging performance. And I want to get to that as a root part of what the team needed after Cleveland last week, and especially Cleveland needs some encouragement, so does. Joe Flacco, everybody got their feelings hurt. Steelers in play this weekend. So then you get their feelings heard. And now the Ravens get to go out and do this thing again, like in a minute, and we get to sit around over the weekend and sort of hang out, maybe enjoy the good weather. I want to talk about the O line, dude, because we haven’t much and it’s all we talked about, right? Like your Mr. Lamar Jackson, can do no wrong. I’m Mr. Derek Henry. Was going to lead them to the promised land somewhere in the middle. We’re both geniuses when it comes to this. So is Eric DaCosta and putting this thing together, as well as Todd Monken um, the one thing that we fretted all summer, that we never saw we don’t see in these cheese ball preseason games. And when your left tackles gotten a big haircut on his paycheck, and isn’t out there playing in August, but is out there running around and feeling good, and you know the center is going to be something special, you feel that you felt like all the pimp and they did for Rosengarten, that by now he’d be playing, at least starting, if not playing, playing well, but the Left Guard, the right guard, how it all worked. There’s one football and to your point, that is brought in a male content wide receiver from two other places to mix him in. And you just told me, I’m just checking zay flowers here. I might be one of the best wide receivers in the game. So and Mark Andrews reappeared for a minute. I love that Aguilar caught the first big one, because it was sort of like a, well, I’m here too, and I was good once, and then there’s just likely and all the other parts of this. And then Justice Hill shows up after, you know, after a while when we’ve beaten them to death with Derek, Henry, Lamar Jackson, and it’s only a 24 point lead, will Justice Hill a little bit over the top, but the offensive line, if that went to hell in a hand basket. That is, we predicted, just as we were concerned about. I mean, I think both of you and I thought, this is an A F C championship game team. This is, it’s, this is the second best team in the A F C, if not third. If you want to talk about buffalo or Cincinnati when you thought they were smelling good right now, the ravens are still the second best team in their own division, until proven differently with the Steelers and the offensive line got all the oxygen all summer long, and other than the penalties, which are a problem, but the fact that this Things operating on time offensively is, yeah, the offensive lines been good enough, good enough to get it done. Yeah, it
Luke Jones 09:47
wasn’t in Cleveland, and that’s a big reason why they lost, right? That was a big reason why their offense didn’t operate as well as it had in other games. But we said it before the season. I said this to you. Vividly remember sitting here talking about it, that they don’t need this to be a top five offensive line. They don’t need this to even necessarily be a top 10 offensive line, just be somewhere in the neighborhood of average to above average, you know, somewhere in that top half of the AFC. And the reason why it’s going to be good enough, then, is because you do have Lamar Jackson, and now you throw Derek Henry into the mix, and now you look at all the different weapons they have. Everything compliments all these entities complement each other, right? Beginning with number eight, right? Everything makes something else better. You have a running game that has always been really good with Lamar Jackson. Now you throw Derek Henry into it, it makes the play action that much more devastating. You have tight ends who are featured in that element, but also you have wide receivers now and led by zay flowers, who can beat man coverage, and he could find the spots in zone. I mean, everything you try to do defensively is taken away or is countered by something else. Nelson Aguilar talked about this, and I’ll get back to the offensive line in a moment, but their their goal isn’t to be run first. It’s not to be passed first. It’s to have an answer for everything, and knowing that teams have to come out with a defined plan to try to stop Lamar Jackson. And we’ve seen that. We’ve seen different iterations of it. We’ve seen different points of emphasis at different times, going all the way back to what the Chargers playing the quarters defense, back in lamar’s rookie year, in that playoff game. But we’ve seen all of that be fleeting. You might be able to stop it once, or you might have some success doing something here or there, but it’s just so difficult to sustain that it’s so difficult to come up with the right scheme, and it’s so difficult to have the right players to execute that scheme. It’s so
Nestor Aparicio 11:49
Coach Lamar up to recognize saying six, seven years into this that he’s checking out a bad play. That’s something he did not have in the arsenal during the Roman era. Checking out of a bad play meant duck and run. Yeah,
Luke Jones 12:03
8well, and quite frankly, a big criticism of Greg Roman as an offensive coordinator is not really having that Arsenal in his system, right, whether it’s been Lamar going back to Colin, Kaepernick, whoever it might be, so you’ve just seen this thing evolve and grow and continue to get better. And Lamar just, I mean, he’s, it’s better than graduate level football that he’s playing at this point, beyond his extraordinary talent. I mean, he’s getting them in and out of the right plays. He’s seeing things at the line of scrimmage. He has car Blanche. I mean, they’ve handed him the keys, and he’s doing all the things that you think of the best quarterbacks doing, in terms of pre snap and all of that, even if you know he’s not dropping back as a pure pass or 40 times in the way you thought Tom Brady would, but he’s doing a lot of those things pre snap now, and it’s just made him that much more difficult. However, going back to the offensive line, they have played at a high enough level where you are able to open up your playbook and do whatever you want. Basically, again, we still see that group struggle in protection when they’re in true pass sets, when they’re in third and long news flash, most offenses struggle with that, even offenses that you think of as more, quote, conventional, with a more traditional quarterback. So no one wants to be in those positions, but they’re just, they’re they’re playing at a really high level. The offensive line specifically has been good enough for the most part. The last couple weeks, it had gone in a not so great direction for the right side of the of the line, fall a lane. Rose and garden had struggle. That
Nestor Aparicio 13:44
would be the issue when you have miles Garrett, when you have Max Cosby, when you have a game wrecker, when you have a guy that’s better than any of their guys, better than Ronnie Stanley is at this point to be able to beat them get held. Because this has been, it’s been a penalty written offensive line right like the fact that they can either punt their way, field goal their way, or razzle dazzle third and or fourth down that second and 20s. I don’t want to say it’s manageable, but in this particular offense, it feels like they can get 12 back quick and and have and have, they’ve managed their way those awful penalties. I don’t know whether it’s cost them games or opportunities in the Raiders game or the Browns game, but they they managed to opportune them with, I mean, the Buffalo game, they had penalties and still one by three, four touchdowns. So the offensive line’s been penalized, but they’ve worked their way out of that, and I that really does speak to their skill position players, and what they would have for the next play on second and 20 to get the ball to say flowers in space
Luke Jones 14:48
and even look at it, there were a couple examples in Sunday’s game where Lamar was pressured and Lamar was flushed out of the pocket, and he’s scrambling and trying to buy some time, and then what happens the defense holds down field. In coverage, or they commit a penalty in coverage downfield again. All of this compliments, it’s so complimentary how they’re playing offensively right now, where you look in, you go into a game, and let’s face it, the tight ends were not a big part of what they did on Sunday. I mean, Mark Andrews was targeted twice, Isaiah likely was targeted once, and they went through a long stretch of the game before a tight end it even caught a pass. So you look at that, we’ve seen games where teams are able to take away the run, or at least contain the run, in the first half, and you say, well, Derek, Henry is not a big factor. And then you look up and see what he does in the late third quarter, in the fourth quarter, and he’s got over 100 yards. I mean, we’ve seen them. We’ve seen games where Lamar has barely thrown the ball, right? I mean, we’ve seen everything again. This is why I’m saying to you early in the year, this wasn’t about, oh, they get Derek Henry. They just want to pound the football. No, they want to be able to do that when the situation calls for it, and when the defense is giving them the looks that allow them to do that. But you want to do everything. You literally want to be able to defend, or make the opposition defend every blade of grass from the line of scrimmage all the way out to the sideline, all the way through the back of the end zone. I mean, that’s and that’s what teams are having to do. And now you throw in a Deontay Johnson into into the mix, who I think is probably going to be a vertical threat for them to go along with Bateman. Zay flowers is a threat at every level as a wide receiver at this point. I mean, we’re just seeing him become that kind of a threat, and the the yards after the catch ability. I mean, it speaks for itself. I mean, that touchdown at the end of the first half was unbelievable, how he just made that move and then he’s just gone. So he’s
Nestor Aparicio 16:44
one of those guys to me, like, you know, like Tyree kill that you don’t want him catching the ball. Like, you know what I mean? Like, if he can get the ball quick and in space, and you give him enough space off the line of scrimmage, and Lamar sees it. You know, it goes back to that worst case scenario. It’s a drop, right? But worst case scenario, it’s second and two, if you tackle him, you know, if your linebacker safety can get down and tackle him, get him to the ground. If not, it’s, it’s a home run play every time he sets up, stepped up to the line of scrimmage, and they’re gonna have to start double teaming him. And to your point, that’s what Mark Andrews is available, right? Yeah, that’s when other things happen in this offense. Or Lamar just takes off and runs on you, because you just stop spying him. You treat him like he’s Joe Flacco, right?
8Luke Jones 17:35
And I know Vance Joseph, their defensive coordinator, was even talking about this this past week. He actually, if you go out and you can find it on social media, and someone kind of cut up some of the some of the sound bites just talking about this offense, he was even talking about the fact of the challenge in spying. Lamar Jackson, first of all, you need to have someone athletic enough that actually is effective in doing it. But he also made point of, you know what? You can have someone that despise him and they’re five yards off the line of scrimmage, but Lamar, at this point, they’ll say, Okay, well, that’s one less defender in coverage, and I’ll just start picking throwing it over your head and picking you guys apart that way, so they have an answer for just about everything. That’s why I said if the offensive line just good enough, if the defense, and specifically the past defense, because we know they can stop the run, but the pass defense just good enough, because it is so difficult just to sit here and say, Oh well, you’re going to get a couple stops, right? I mean, we saw this with Denver on Sunday. I mean, they get a stop early on, and then look at how many possessions the Ravens scored in a row. And I mean, that just makes things that difficult. And then you get to a situation where you get the late first half, the Ravens score with what 347, to go. In the second quarter, Denver drives. They get a field goal, but then the Ravens score again, and they manage. They kept enough time.
Nestor Aparicio 18:55
That was a debacle. I mean, as much as we beat on hardball, about clock management, I mean that kid running out of bounds, oh my god. I mean tough, like, the minute he ran out of bounds, I’m like, Oh my god. Romo was like, Oh my God. Like, what are you doing, dude, you know, dude, you don’t want to give Lamar the ball back. What’s that with you? But
Luke Jones 19:13
that’s all that also speaks to how tiny your margin for error is. They
Nestor Aparicio 19:18
8also came out on second down and should have called time out because they ran a quick play, because the clock got up on them, and they ate the ball on second down and put themselves in a bad third down, like the whole thing was botched. And, you know, if you’re wondering why the Ravens were nine point favorites at home on Sunday, I guess the thought would have been a rookie is going to screw that up at some point, or the coach, or at you know on the road that there’s going to be that sort of a mistake that to your point when the operation is not clean, all the way around their operation not being clean went from 1714, to 24, to seven. Quick, right? Like, real quick.
Luke Jones 19:59
Yeah. Well, I mean, you just look at how that played out. So will lots hits from 37 yards at 1710 with 54 seconds to go, yeah, no, I knew what you meant. At 1710 with 54 seconds ago. And even with, even acknowledging how they mismanaged that 54 seconds left, right, and the Ravens had used some time out, they marched right down the field and score touchdown. I mean, they scored a touchdown in less than 40 seconds of game time. So they get that touchdowns, 2410, then the Ravens get the ball to start the second half. So that game goes from being a one score game, and Denver, of course, they had precious seconds at the end of that felt
Nestor Aparicio 20:36
like it was going to be a field goal game, right? Like it felt like they were when you went in. It felt like the one thing I would say in the first half, it felt like they ever could run the ball a little bit, and that kind of worried me a little bit, like they they ran the ball a little bit early on, got stopped, but I thought that’s the one thing that can’t go wrong. They can’t get run on. You know, the passing thing’s a problem as it is. Getting run on would be an issue, and as long as they don’t get run on, I’m with you, they’re gonna, they’re gonna win the Super Bowl.
Luke Jones 21:04
Well, I they gotta be better past defense wise. I’m not. I hear what you’re saying. And they, they, they got a couple Okay, runs. They did. They need to be able to stop the pass better than they have been. And, and, okay, Bo nicks, I mean, he missed a couple open guys, right? I mean, there could have been a couple scores there that make that a much tighter game. But just to finish, the point I was making you go from 17 to 10 to 31 to 10 with Denver really not touching the football. I mean, a quarterback, Neal at the end of the first half. So my point with that is, and we talked about this with the Cleveland game, right? I made mention to you going into that game, and I did not predict the Browns win. Let’s be clear. I’m not trying to use revisionist history, but what I did say is, if you’re going to have a chance to beat the Baltimore Ravens, you have to take advantage of any window that you get, any mistake they make, any wasted possession, any busted play, anything like that. And let’s face it, look what happened at the beginning of the game. I mean, Denver commits the early turnover. Raven should have had at least a field goal, right? And then they get sacked. You know, Rosengarten gives up the sack on third down, and boom, they’re out of field goal range. That should have been Denver’s opening right there to to jump out to a lead, and they didn’t do it, right? I mean, that that, and that sounds crazy, because it’s like, well, Luke, you’re only talking about one possession. Yeah, that’s how difficult it is. You have to take advantage of any mistake the Ravens make. And we saw it another shaky shotgun shot, shotgun snap. They still have this tendency to to short circuit once or twice a game, where you just look at it and say, What the heck was that? Right? It’s almost like the the computer a computer glitch, or, like, yeah, restart the computer, or something like that. But, I mean, you just have such a limited window to really give yourself a great chance to beat the ravens, unless you were just that supremely talented to try to match them. Talent wise, and the stember team isn’t that, right? I mean, they have a good defense, but the hype for their defense certainly took a major hit on Sunday. But hey, that’s a lot of defenses that we’ve seen against Lamar Jackson, especially the ones that don’t play him in the division twice a year. You know, it’s just we talk about with the NFC, it’s really everyone other than the AFC north that sees him less frequently, that that really has difficult time other than Kansas City, right? And even Kansas City, until the AFC title game last year. It been a while since, since the Chiefs had played the Ravens. So it’s just so
8Nestor Aparicio 23:37
spagnolo issue too, right? Last week. Like great coordinators figure things out with some parts. If they have a couple of miles, Garretts and Chris Joneses, you know, they
Luke Jones 23:48
have to have the horses, right? I mean, it’s such a it’s such a small sample of teams that have good, good enough coaching and good enough players to be able to do enough, and even then again, and I talked to talk to you about this last week. I mean, Jim Schwartz, yeah, compliment him Absolutely. They still scored 24 points in that game. It’s not as though the Ravens offense was held to 10. So again, this speaks to how difficult it really is, and that’s why I keep coming back to this pass defense. It does not need to be top five or top 10. Get me closer to the middle of the pack statistically as a pass defense, and I think that’s going to be good enough. Now, how do you do that? Because we’re talking about the pass rush and even the sacks that the Ravens had on Sunday, go back and look, those weren’t someone, you know, blowing someone else off the ball and sacking someone in a second and a half. I mean, Bo Nicks was standing back there a few seconds, and then the pass rush eventually got to him. I think that was at least maybe a sign that the coverage was cleaner on the back end of the defense in the second half. And I think it was, you know, you saw fewer receivers running free in the second half. And look, the Ravens had a big lead. That point. So I don’t want to make too much of that. I don’t I’m not calling this a defensive breakthrough by any stretch of the imagination, but I was glad to at least see a couple three and outs, to see the stop. You know when, when they had a goal to go situation from what the two yard line, and they come away with nothing. It was good to see that at least it was good to see some of these fourth down stops. It was good to see some situational football that
Nestor Aparicio 25:22
was, it felt very seasonish. You know, it felt like scrimmagey in the especially at the two yard line. Was like, Are you going to get in? Are you not or where’s the point spread? I don’t know but, but
Luke Jones 25:35
8we’ve also seen the defense falter in those situations and turn a big lead into tight you know, look what happened in Dallas first. You
Nestor Aparicio 25:42
didn’t want to look up and see it, 4124 either, right? So,
Luke Jones 25:46
so at the and again, that’s a low bar, right? Now, I get that anyone saying, hearing this is, we’re, we’re damning them with praise right now,
Nestor Aparicio 25:53
stopping a rookie quarterback at home when there’s nobody there and you have the horses, right? So, but
8Luke Jones 25:58
you got to start somewhere, right? So, and we’re going to see what’s going to happen here with the trade deadline. We’re it’s upon us just about and we’ll see if they can add a pass rusher. I mean, lots of teams are looking for pass rush right now, so is, is a deal going to come together that you feel is going to move the needle for you? We’ll see. But when you have this offense and you have this quarterback who absolutely is the MVP of the league through the first half of the season at this point. I mean, I don’t think it’s not sure it’s even all that close, with apologies to Josh Allen and Jared Goff and a couple others who are playing Derek Henry’s
Nestor Aparicio 26:31
in second place.
Luke Jones 26:32
But, but would you have a quarterback playing like that, and you have a running back doing what Derek Henry can do, and you have zay flowers, who’s rapidly emerging to wherever he ranks across the league, he’s becoming a legitimate number one wide receiver at the very least. And we haven’t said that very often in these parts in the history of this franchise, especially talking about drafting your own that’s never happened. So that’s good to see. They have so many other weapons, the offensive line needs to continue to gel and improve and grow, and for the most part, we’ve seen them be on a pretty good trajectory since week one and week two. And defensively, we’ve talked about it, but I mean, heck of a football team. And even after losing in Cleveland last week, as frustrating as that was, it was still a matter of a couple plays. Right? When you beat this team, it’s a matter of a couple plays. They never get blown out, anything like that. So it’s a really good football team, and it’s fantastic on offense. So you tell me how many teams out there have the profile that can beat the Ravens on any given Sunday, unless the ravens are the ones beating themselves and self destructing and doing frankly dumb stuff, which they’ve done that in a couple of their losses this year. So really nice win. But hey, no time to enjoy it because the Cincinnati Bengals are coming to town in what is an absolute desperation must win, kind of situation for Cincinnati.
Nestor Aparicio 28:06
He is Lou Jones. He is Baltimore, Luke. We’re out in the social media space all week. Election, baseball news coming down the pike on lots of different terms, including with Cara Cole in New York, straight on down Soto the whole deal. We know the market gets set a little weird this time of year. And, you know, we do a little pumpkin pie getting ready for the holidays. We’re doing the Maryland crab cake tour. Almost everywhere have an entire schedule through the holidays. Going to be available here this week. So brought to my friends at the Maryland lottery. Friends, if you do multi care, also getting Luca back and forth. Our oyster tour is in progress as well. That is brought to you by curio wellness far and daughter, as well as our friends at Liberty. Pure solutions. They keep our water absolutely clear. It’s one 800 clean water. I keep the water here on my set as well. And big thanks to Royal farms as well. Put the chicken together for me for Thursday night. May make it nice and easy, just fried chicken and football, Cincinnati Bengals in town. Quick turnaround this week, election week, just a weird week all the way around. So weird that I have our new logo up as well. I am Nestor. He is Luke. We got plenty of football ahead after a regular beat down at the Denver Broncos, I think about, you know, I was watching all those helmets and the weird thing they were wearing, and sort of an amalgamation of John Elway’s later years and the 1960s Broncos just weird. That’s all I’m gonna say about the outfits. But, you know, I love my Broncos memories around here, so beating them like a drums even more fun. I am Nestor. Well, I’ll done Jacoby Jones. Catch was a lot of fun too. He’s Luke. We’re Baltimore positive. Stay with us.
