So just how good can Ravens offense be with Lamar and King Henry royally meshing?

After having its way all day against the less-than-stellar Washington Commanders defense in a 30-23 home win, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the arrival of King Henry and this royal offense of Lamar Jackson we’re seeing as Todd Monken starts to draw it up and the line starts to gel and block it up. And weapons multiply in the passing attack.

The Battle For Maryland is real this time: Jayden vs. Lamar in Baltimore

We always felt like this should be more of a “rivalry” than a novelty. Luke Jones and Nestor get ready for a high-stakes battle between the team from the south in the burgundy in gold coming to Baltimore to face the Ravens as a 4-1 upstart NFL darling. Should be plenty of offense in this one on Sunday.

Having a blast at Camden Yards with friends

Beating the Yankees is always a rare and beautiful sight for any Orioles fan to witness and behold. But, as Nestor Aparicio explained to Luke Jones, it’s more fun whilst sitting over the New York dugout heckling Juan Soto, Aaron Judge and Anthony Rizzo every time they fail in another Orioles Magic beat down of the Bronx Bombers at Camden Yards with friends.

Read the #ColumnNes of Nestor Aparicio after the Ravens loss to the Chiefs.

Nestor remembers the Pittsburgh hotel manager howling when the Baltimore AM sports radio wackjob guy told her he was gonna bring a thousand people in purple to her fancy corporate wedding ballroom for four hours to drink beer and prepare to eliminate the Steelers from the AFC Championship Game.
