Three-time Super Bowl Champion Mark Schlereth had some pointed criticism for Lamar Jackson on a recent episode of his 'Stinkin Truth Podcast', saying that the onus is on Lamar to make his teammates better. He went on to say the Ravens have given Lamar weapons but he hasn't done anything with them. Is Schlereth's criticism fair? Or is it more of a team issue and not a Lamar-only issue?
Entering 2024 the hope is that the Ravens offense will continue to grow with Todd Monken at the helm but what will that look like? How important will the inclusion of both Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely be to that growth?

Plus, the guys break down the day's gambling slate in The Daily Line and discuss what Elias will need to do in this free agency period to secure his future in Baltimore.
The Orioles are, easily, one of baseball's best teams this year but to say they don't need help would be a mistake. Mike Elias has hit a lot of homeruns during his tenure in Baltimore but with that said, his future with the team is up in the air. Does he need to hit a homerun in this free agency period to secure his future with the team? Or does he still have enough good will from amazing drafts?

Plus, we hand out Shovels of Wisdom and then break down the day's gambling slate in The Daily Line.
It appears Heston Kjerstad held his welcome party this weekend at the Yard, as he hit his first homers of 2024 and proved why his bat was so highly touted by analysts. He was previously a oft-mentioned trade chip for the Os but is it becoming clear that he needs to stay in orange and black.
From day one of the 2024 season O's fans were worried about the team's daunting month of June, where they'd play against playoff teams while only having one day off. Now on July 1st, we watched the O's go 18-12 and take control of the AL East. How would you grade the Birds' June?

Rushmore over Joe Flacco?
In the third hour of Tuesday's BBMS, Rob, Ed, and Jeremy recap Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final and then debate how much blame for Edmonton's loss falls on Connor McDavid.

The AFCCG has been analyzed and broken down by Ravens fans dozens of times by fans and it seems that the second-guessing is not ending any time soon.

Does it help you get over the loss any more? Or does his response just make the situation worse?

To close things out, it's a recap of the O's win over the Jays and Jack Flaherty's debut performance.
Newly acquired Oriole Jack Flaherty made his debut yesterday and he was impressive, tossing 6 innings of 1 run ball while striking out 8. He did have one tough inning, loading the bases with 1 out, but he was able to gut it out and get the outs he needed, likely saving the game for the Birds. A lot of people were critical of the trade, saying the team didn't do enough to help the pitching, but what are they saying now? Did he shut up the doubters?
In the opening hour of Friday's BBMS, the guys recap an impressive win by the O's, as they beat the Jays in all phases to take the weekday series.

In the third hour of Thursday's BBMS, the guys start off going through What's Trending in social media, followed by a pivot back to the O's. The Rule 5 Draft has always been kind to the Orioles but now, with some coveted guys in the minors, should we be worried about a youngster getting poached?

To close the hour out, it's a trip into Jeremy Conn's World of Stupid, featuring a follow up story on a very suspicious bear at a Chinese zoo.
The Orioles had a very out-of-character loss last night, losing 4 to 1 in a game full of errors and hit-by-pitches. Toronto beat the O's despite being outhit seven to three and scored three times in the third without registering a hit. Usually the O's are the team to force lesser competition into these positions, but does a loss like this worry you? Or is it only a problem if it becomes a habit?
It's becoming more and more clear that JK Dobbins is pulling a 'hold-in' due to his contract situation, using what little leverage he has to protest. Coach John Harbaugh is trying to downplay the situation but he admitted yesterday that he doesn't know when Dobbins will actually get back in pads. How bad of an idea is this for Dobbins? Is he just wasting whatever prime years he has?
In the second hour of Thursday's BBMS, the guys start off with some thoughts on JK Dobbins' 'hold-in' with the Ravens. Dobbins is in the midst of a second straight week of missing practice. Melvin Gordon spilled the beans after reportedly saying that Dobbins is 'sitting out.' How do you think this will end? Continuing with more Ravens talk, Lamar and Nelson Agholor have been the talk of camp, with both guys receiving some glowing praise. Do you put any stock in the good news even though they're not in pads? Next, the guys hand out Shovels of Wisdom and then close the hour out with a discussion about the ISU-Iowa gambling sting. A number of college football players are now facing legal troubles because of the sting but is this just the result of legal gambling?
In the opening hour of Thursday's BBMS, the guys reflect on a rough Wednesday night for the Orioles, as they will themselves to a 4-1 loss against the Jays.

Ryan Ripken of the Fan's 'Baltimore Baseball Tonight' joined the BBMS on Wednesday to share his thoughts on the O's deadline trades and their future impact. Jack Flaherty was once a front-of-the-line starter in the NL and though he's struggled the last couple seasons, he's only 27 years old. Can the O's help him return to form? Regardless of his output, does the addition only make the O's stronger contenders in the American League?
In the final hour of Wednesday's BBMS, the guys start off with a visit from local boxing promoter Nikki Cobbs, who shares some info about the upcoming fights at Coppin State.

To close the hour out, the guys hand out their Shovels of Wisdom, including one for Jays manager John Schneider and his questionable decision making against the Os.
The Orioles made their long awaited move at the deadline and while it wasn't a massive splash, it still filled a need for the AL's top team. With that said, is adding Jack Flaherty enough to keep the O's at the top of the league?
In the opening hour of Wednesday's BBMS, the guys jump right into the day's big news in Baltimore: the Birds trade for Cardinals pitcher Jack Flaherty. The O's gave up three mid-tier prospects to fill one of their biggest needs. With that said, some fans aren't happy. What do you say to them? What more could they have done? To close the hour out on a lighter note, Jeremy takes us into the World of Stupid, featuring a story about one of entertainments biggest stars and her pending legal issues.

Will the O's make one? Will you be disappointed if there aren't any moves made? Jeremy then takes us to the World of Stupid and the hour closes out with reactions to Sean Payton's bombshell quotes against the Jets. Bad move by Coach Payton to call out other coaches?
In the opening hour of Friday's BBMS, the guys dive into some Ravens talk as training camp begins to ramp up. OBJ held court yesterday in his post-practice presser, expressing his gratitude to be back on the field. What do we expect from OBJ this year?

Are you surprised by how immediate has impact has been? To close the hour out, we stick with football for the Commish's Baltimore, as Ed and the guys break down Aaron Rodgers' huge paycut in New York. Is he being petty still or do you think he's being a team player?
OBJ is already making his presence felt at Ravens training camp, holding court yesterday and expressing how excited he is to be in purple and black. Beckham is by far the biggest free agent acquisition, offensively at least, in team history, but he is coming off of a devastating knee injury. What should we expect in terms of production from OBJ this season?
In the final hour of Thursday's BBMS, the guys start off with a trip to the World of Stupid, followed by a Commish's Baltimore from a galaxy far, far, away.

The O's dropped a pair of tough one's against the Phillies this week, having a chance to win both contests but coming up short. Manager Brandon Hyde has been under some pretty heavy scrutiny by fans after these L's but is it warranted? Did he have any choice for his starter and bullpen decisions? Do you think the upcoming series against New York and Toronto played into these choices?
The Ravens held day 1 of Training Camp 2023 yesterday at the Castle and it was immediately apparent that the Ravens offense this season will be radically different than past iterations. Lamar Jackson now has the keys and will be able to change plays at the line if he needs to, but how will that play out? Will there be an adjustment period?
In the second hour of Thursday's BBMS, the guys start off with a spirited discussion on the situation surround running backs and future contracts.

Did he do the best he could with the hand he's dealt?

Marlon Humphrey and Lamar both spoke out about the changes to the offense and gave glowing reviews. Is the hype building among fans?

The NBA may be deep in their offseason but some massive news dropped yesterday as the Celtics handed superstar Jaylen Brown a record-setting 304 million dollar extension. On Wednesday the BBMS was joined by The Undefeated's Jerry Bembry, who talks all things NBA but with a focus on Brown's new deal.

Lamar Jackson was a no-show at the Ravens first week of OTAs, raising the ire of many fans (and radio hosts). That said, the Ravens have two more weeks of OTAs ahead of mandatory minicamp in mid-June. If he shows up next week or the following, will it quiet the voices questioning if he's committed?

FilmStudyBaltimore.com's Ken McKusick joined the Big Bad Morning Show on Tuesday with a breakdown of the Ravens' 24-22 loss to the Browns this past Sunday. It was another close loss for the Ravens, but this game will be most remembered for back-up QB Tyler Huntley replacing an injured Lamar Jackson. Even with a back-up QB, the Ravens nearly pulled off the win over the Browns, though Baltimore played an un-even game and will be kicking themselves for letting a good opportunity going to waste. Listen in as Ken, Rob, Jeremy, and Ed, discuss the struggles of the Ravens offensive line and the uneven game of the defense. Plus, a little preview of what the Ravens secondary may face as Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers come to town this Sunday afternoon.
It's been a rough 36 hours for Ravens fans in the wake of Baltimore's 20-19 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 55th edition of Ravens vs Steelers was another instant classic, but for the purple and black, it will be remembered as a game of missed opportunities and sloppy play. The Ravens outplayed the Steelers on many fronts but couldn't make the plays when they counted, paramount among them: a game-winning two-point conversion with 12 seconds remaining. To make matters worse, more devastating injuries followed the loss, with All-pro CB Marlon Humphrey on IR for the rest of the season. While the Ravens record falls to 8 and 4 on the season and they still lead the AFC North, the outlook is not good for the Ravens final five games.
As he does following every Ravens game, Ken McKusick joined the Big Bad Morning Show with a break down of the tape from Sunday's loss. Listen in as Ken and the guys discuss Lamar Jackson and the offenses' struggles, as well as what OC Greg Roman can do to fix some of the issues they're facing.

It's a gloomy day in Baltimore, as the Ravens fell to the rival Steelers on Sunday evening 20-19. Lamar Jackson attempted to pull the rabbit out of the hat one more time for the Ravens, but the game-winning two point conversion attempt failed, handing the Steelers the victory. As he does after every Ravens game, The Baltimore Sun's Mike Preston graded the Ravens performance and to say the marks aren't pretty is an understatement. Baltimore had it's chances to win this game, but too many miscues and squandered opportunities has every Ravens fan taking a long look in the mirror. Listen in as Mike gives his grades and shares his thoughts on a very eye-opening loss with Ed, Rob, and Jeremy on Monday Morning Quarterback.
FilmStudyBaltimore.com's Ken McKusick joined the Big Bad Morning Show on Tuesday after looking at the tape of Baltimore's ugly 16-10 win over the Browns. While the Ravens got the W, it wasn't pretty, especially on offense. Lamar Jackson threw four interceptions in the win and, as a whole, the offense looked sluggish. If there were any positives, it happened on the defensive side of the ball. Wink Martindale's defense harassed Browns QB Baker Mayfield all night and held Cleveland's vaunted rushing attack to just 36 yards. With that said, what did the tape show? Ken breaks it all down with Ed, Rob, and Jeremy on the Big Bad Morning Show.
The Ravens were 16-10 winner over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday night in an ugly, mistake-filled game for both sides. While the Ravens got the win, the offense, especially Lamar Jackson, did not play well. Lamar became the first QB since 2013 to win a regular season start when throwing four interceptions. Baltimore won in spite of Lamar's miscues, with the defense stepping up and shutting down the Cleveland offense, namely the running game. The Ravens are now 8-3 and not only lead the AFC North, but also the AFC as a whole. With that said, is this team for real?
As he does after every Ravens game, The Professor Mike Preston graded Baltimore's performance.

Listen in as Preston breaks it down with Ed, Rob, and Jeremy.
FilmStudyBaltimore.com's Ken McKusick joined the Big Bad Morning Show on Tuesday after looking at the tape of yet another close win for the Ravens, this time a 16-13 win over the Bears. Though the Ravens got the win and moved to 7-3, many were critical of the victory. While the offense escaped most of the blame, as they were without Lamar Jackson and Marquise Brown, the defense has been the source of fans' ire. Does the tape support the fan criticism? Plus, Ken gives a preview of this Sunday's primetime matchup against Cleveland and why the Browns are not a good matchup against the Ravens. Ed, Rob, Jeremy, and Ken break it all down on the Big Bad Morning Show.
Maryland Men's Basketball coach Mark Turgeon joined the Big Bad Morning Show on Tuesday, as his team heads to the Bahamas for the Baha Mar Hoops Championship. Maryland is coming off of a hard-fought win against Hofstra last Friday night. The two-point victory over the Pride was not the type of bounce back win Coach was looking for, after dropping a game last Wednesday to George Mason, but with that said, the team is still trying to find itself as the season gets off the ground. Will the trip down to the Bahamas help get the Terps right? Plus, what's up with the lack of playing time for first-year-transfer Qudus Wahab? Listen in as Coach answers those questions and more with Ed, Rob, and Jeremy on the Big Bad Morning Show.
Another week, another close win for the Ravens, this time against the Chicago Bears. This win was different though, as the Ravens were led not by Lamar Jackson, but back-up QB Tyler Huntley. Lamar was ruled out hours before the game due to a non-Covid related illness. Huntley stepped in and was able to guide the Ravens to a 16 to 13 victory, scoring a touchdown with 22 seconds remaining. While Baltimore got the win and moved to 7-3, there were still some major breakdowns defensively and along the offensive line. Fans are happy the Ravens got the win, but even in the victory, there's some things to worry about moving forward. What did the Professor Mike Preston think of the win? Listen in as he gives his grades for the Ravens' 7th win of the season on Monday Morning QB.
Film Study Baltimore's Ken McKusick joined the Big Bad Morning Show on Monday morning with his break down of the Ravens' disappointing 22-10 loss to the Dolphins last Thursday night. All three of Baltimore's losses this year have come in frustrating fashion, but this one has to take the cake. The Dolphins had a perfect gameplan for the Ravens, especially on defense, as they blitzed constantly to throw Lamar Jackson off his game. As for the Ravens defense, big plays were once again the issue. The Dolphins had two plays of 50-plus yards. Are the Ravens issues on both sides of the ball fixable? Ken attempts to answer that question and more with Rob and Ed on the Big Bad Morning Show.

Once again, the Ravens had to pull the rabbit out of the hat in beating a lesser opponent, coming back from a double-digit deficit to beat the Vikings on Sunday. As you can imagine, coming back from 14-down means the Ravens played an uneven game. A dismal first half was balanced by a much more Ravens-like second half, but what did the tape say? Ken McKusick of FilmStudyBaltimore.com joined Ed, Rob, and Jeremy with his review of the tape. A look at the stats show total domination by the Ravens, but why didn't the product on the field reflect that? Ken has the answers, and much more, on the Big Bad Morning Show.
The Baltimore Sun's Mike Preston shared his report card for the Ravens 34-31 overtime victory over the Minnesota Vikings. It was the tale of two halves for the Ravens, as they stormed back from a 24-10 deficit to shock the Vikings in OT. Lamar Jackson led the charge for the Ravens offense, leading them on multiple scoring drives, as well as the game-winning drive in OT, but he and his teammates played awful in the first half. How will their uneven performance grade out with the Professor? Listen in as Mike, Rob, Ed, and Jeremy break it down on Monday Morning QB.
