The fiasco over putting Lamar Jackson as a “full” participant on a Friday afternoon injury report when he ran scout team and they knew he wasn’t going to start on Sunday has just begun for John Harbaugh and the Baltimore Ravens. His “excuse” was far less than believable as Luke Jones and Nestor also take general manager Eric DeCosta to task for pushing the gambling line five points on a Saturday in the NFL with pretty blatant dishonesty and “gamesmanship” for no one.

Jones isn’t a household name, but Baltimore coaches and players certainly sound excited to have him join the fold.
Longtime Minnesota sportswriter Kevin Seifert of ESPN and one-time local colleague of Nestor covering the Orioles back in the 1990s returns to Baltimore for a primer on the mystery of quarterback J.J. McCarthy and the belief Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell has in him to lead the franchise. Plenty of purple knowledge in the this one.
No one can get you ready for a Minnesota Vikings game better than the longtime voice of Skol and the people in the Twin Cities. One-time Maryland resident and bon vivant Paul Allen (aka P.A. On The Mic) tells Nestor why Andrew Van Ginkel might be the most important player in Sunday’s match-up with the Baltimore Ravens and how the crowd will factor into Lamar Jackson’s day in Minneapolis.

With all of the hubbub of the NFL trade deadline and all of the extra salary cap space Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta had at his disposal, the team added just edge specialist Dre’Mont Jones from the Tennessee Titans for a 5th round pick.
