Chiefs beat Ravens reaction: Mahomes escapes as Lamar can't finish | Richard Sherman NFL

Chiefs edge Ravens welcome to the new YouTube channel if you haven't already done it hit the Subscribe button to follow us all season long for updates and content so happy that you're here it's going to be a great year welcome back to the Richard Sherman podcast Mitchell what a thrilling game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Kansas City Chiefs a game of inches Mitchell if he was a size I half a size shoe smaller they would have tied that game up they call a game of inches for a reason Rich this is the Richard Sherman podcast late night Edition uh Richard we're we are starting this right after the end of a Thursday night football it's awesome to have football back this game started off quick offenses were gunning and it ended in dramatic fashion down the stretch it looks like a star is born in Baltimore without Isaiah likely but Richard what is the story of this game is it Patrick Mahomes being Patrick Mahomes or is it Lamar J Lamar Jackson faltering in the clutch well it was the roller coaster of emotions I'm sure for Baltimore fans because you you have the unlikely Lamar they miss on the play looks like likely's hurt I mean for a few moments there everybody's like oh man is this season over is it a shoulder injury did he dislocate his shoulder then all of a sudden uh he misses Z flowers on on the Dig route or the ram route as we call it I kind of thought that was game then he gets likely in the back of the End Zone it appears but it didn't come to be mitchal but it was those two first throws the one the likely in the corner he's got to have that the one to flowers you got to have that and he had been playing really well he had just hit a nice nice pass down the sideline uh to baitman I think it was and so I thought hey this was Lamar's moment first game against Patty you know they had a chance they definitely had a chance he ran the heck out of the football Derrick Henry did what Derrick Henry has done uh didn't have the most yards only had 46 yards but looked powerful every fourth- one situation looked like a gimme now uh with Derrik Henry Lamar was running the ball a lot more 122 rushing yards now he's third all time right behind Cam Newton but Patrick mahs and his new weapon Xavier worthy you can't just keep giving him weapons the Chiefs only had four touchdowns of 20 plus yards last year Mitchell worthy had two today he's going to be a problem and that was another thing for the Baltimore defense I would say Zack or Zack or did a pretty solid job Zack or for your first day coordinated you got a lot of talent you had guys in the spot a lot of pressure on Patty Mahomes all day that I couldn't tell if it was Humphrey's blunder or the safety blunder I'm GNA need the all 22 but that was a huge play in the ball game because that that made made it a 10-point ball game in the middle of the game and I don't even think they were going to go score I think Baltimore's defense was starting to get a rhythm I don't think it would have been as easy of a score for Kansas City without that play but Patrick Mahomes is Patrick Mahomes he does not miss layups do not he moved around it was it got Shippy at the end few late you know hits out of bounds I think Marcus Williams slid and tried to tackle him when he was on near the sideline roquan had one this is developing into a low rivalry it sure is I mean for those that thought the Kansas City Chiefs would have a Super Bowl hangover they just got right back out the saddle and kept going Rich this this this continues onward and upward what is going to possibly stop the Kansas City Chiefs because frankly as you touched on they look better than last year with the addition of Xavier worthy and let's not forget they got Hollywood Brown too I mean these are two speed demons on the outside uh if they can get Travis Kelce going which you know they will and pound the rock with Isa Pacho uh this team looks like the Kansas City Chiefs we thought they would be the last several years again yeah it's scary because when when Patrick Mahomes had Tyreek heel he was young mitro he was young he was in experienced you know you might be able to get him you might be able to trick him every now and then you might be able to get him to hold the ball but now he got Xavier worthy and is's a whole different quarterback his Poise his understanding his processing his feel I mean his feel's always been great but it's it's getting ridiculous he played solid Baltimore some some areas of concern for both teams are those off lines and maybe it's just first game Jitters everybody's getting them out but Baltimore's offensive line Looks shaky uh Kansas City is trotting a a a rook out there it's gonna be an adjustment it's going to be adjustment for both teams and I'm interested because these were two of the best defenses in National Football last year obviously Baltimore was number one scoring defense and Kansas City's defense played incredible I think they held every team under 16 or they had 16 point average um in the playoffs but I still I think that's going to be an Achilles heel to watch out for for both of these teams those offensive lines maybe they'll they'll look better in game two and game three but I saw small chinks small chinks in the armor uh with those but the secondaries looked really good outside of the the brain fart or coverage bus from Baltimore I thought both teams secondary played really well um and these are going to be again two of the top teams I you know both of them are in my power five top five power rankings and I don't think they leave I don't think I I'm not going to hold this against Baltimore like they they they they're not one of the top five teams in the NFL because they lost to the team I got as number one team in the NFL Mitchell you don't it's like an SEC game MIT I don't I don't move them off the spot it's the SEC rankings you know SEC teams you lose to B it's almost like you didn't lose I'm with you on that I'm with you on that you know it's tough to go in an arrowhead opening night of the NFL season and knock the defending champs off it's something only my Detroit Lions were able to do last year though Richard so let's not look too far past that my friend let's not look too past far past that where where do we go from here for the Baltimore Ravens obviously there's some things to clean up you know Mark Andrews is this a point of concern for them or like we touched on at the beginning is a star born in Isaiah likele because Isaiah likele looks like he is Lamar Jackson's go-to Target going forward here well you just got to understand Mark Andrews coming off a major injury it's going to take some time you know he's going to take some time to work back in Isaiah likely is has been getting more reps getting better improving developing in a big way is getting a bigger increased an increased role they don't have a ton outside of right now I think it's Z flowers then it's Isaiah likele then it's Derrik Henry and and then it's it's Mark Andrews so you know maybe I think it's week to week maybe one week Mark Andrews is the hot Target one week Z flowers Z flowers started this game pretty hot then he started talking spicy to McDuffy and I didn't hear nothing from him the rest of the game and I he got up on like a little out route talking to McDuffy acting like hey you're about to have a long day and it was over with and McDuffy made an incredible play uh in this game Mitchell I gotta go back and look at the all 22 but it was such a heads up heady play Fast processing play by McDuffy on a fourth and one where it looked like Baltimore was trying to hide Z flowers in the backfield which confused the safety's responsibilities because it looked like they were in some kind of man coverage and they were trying to find their man and then he realized hey that's not a fullback in the back field we counted him as a fullback that's a receiver which means my corner is on one of the tight ends he's on my man I'm on his man and Justin Reed tried to run over at the snap of the ball lo and behold Kint McDuffy says don't worry about it don't even worry about it I got it handled he played it and I I'd have to ask him because it I'm just going off of what it looked like because I don't I'm not in his head but it looked like in a play like that fourth and one as a corner you're in man when your receiver goes down to to crack MIT that he goes down to block the safety call it crack block you have to crack repl so you have to like give him some space and then get your WID back and start to get ready to make a tackle for either a loss or a no gain on a fourth and one so you got to trigger pretty fast and that's what it looked like he kind of felt like it was a crack replace got his eyes in the back field recognized Z flowers out to the flat triggered immediately playing fast trusting his instincts that was an incredible play and that was one of the plays I mean plays a game that that's probably going to be overshadowed throughout the game but that was an incredible play um this is huge for for Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs I think Baltimore is going to be fine I think they they they get back on track next week they they come back huddle up they played good they played good they just didn't play better than the Kansas City Chiefs today but it wasn't like they just played sloppy or it was an ugly game there were a lot of illegal formation penalties that that a lot of people are questioning because you look on one side and you're looking at the tackle looks like he could be a tight end that's sliding and motioning and then the other side you know there it doesn't look like that and they're calling a flag for illegal formation

talk about I don't know if the NFL wanted the season to start like that where you're throwing flags on every other play and to your point Richard I'm pretty sure that rule was implemented because of the Kansas City Chief's left tackle Jawan Taylor for being widely known in this league for doing that for years um you go on Twitter you go on Instagram you'll see it everywhere exactly what you're talking about Richard the rule did not seem to be applied to both teams so I'm sure fan bases are going to be up in arms about that but Richard for once they make a rule that somewhat benefits the defense I never thought this day would actually come in the NFL MIT because it it's it's not for us it's still somehow been benefiting the Kansas City Chiefs even though the rules exct the rule was made to not benefit the Kansas City Chiefs in a game where they're featured it's not called very much on their team but called on the other team Mitch you could not write this better if you tried if you're a producer for the best show in America Rich back to back to the Trent McDuffy conversation though because hey this is this is a guy right here that allows a team like the Kansas City Chiefs to just keep this Super Bowl window expanding and expanding and expanding let's not forget that this team the Chiefs lost a j lerus Sneed this off season arguably one of the top five 10 Corners in this league just plucked off their roster it didn't look like it much mattered today Trent McDuffy picked up they got a seventh round steal in the corner opposite him and Watson um this team in Kansas city is set up for success for years to come I know Patrick Mahomes gives him the ultimate X Factor and is always going to keep this team competitive but when you can bring in Bonafide stars like Chris Jones and now Trent McDuffy on the opposite side of the ball the sky's a limit for this window uh of Super Bowl opportunity uh Richard do we want to Seahawks vs. Broncos preview close the conversation on this game and move ahead and and let's forecast your your Seattle Seahawks at home against the Denver this was a great game uh I'm really really looking forward to the Seattle game against the Denver Broncos for number of reasons I want to see what Bo Knicks really is um what are the Denver Broncos going to look like without Jerry Judy uh you know that'll be a big deal what does that offensive line look like they've been much maligned the last few years uh look like Mike mcglinch is healthy look like they're all healthier uh will they run the ball and and take some heat off the the offense Will Patrick San continue to be the best corner in the National Football League and then on the Seattle Seahawks side this Mike McDonald defense I want to see it I mean i' I've heard The Whispers I've seen the tape I've heard him talk about it it's supposed to be chaos Mitchell and for a rookie quarterback sentury link is already sentury link gosh loomen field I I'm sorry guys I've never played on this field when it's called this I've only played centr Le um but but it's going to be a a rock well he played at Oregon he played at Oregon so you got to give him credit there he played at Oregon he's come to he's come played Washington but he's never been in an environment like this on on the opposing side they're going to be hyp they're it's a new staff a new energy these fans are going to feel renewed like they you know this is the chance for a Super Bowl and they're going to be energetic I think that grubs as offense is going to be really good I think Gino is Poise to have a really good year both the tackles are relatively healthy they're going to start George famp um as Lucas continues to to rehab uh A9 is healthy all three receivers that they're expecting big years from Tyler Lockett DK and jsn are all healthy I'm looking forward to a really fun game in Lumen uh I'm thinking about being there I know the guy that's raising the flag that that day um it's 49ers vs. Jets preview gonna be a really fun fun deal and on the other side you're gonna get Monday night the Hat changed the infamous hat change that our our fan base loves Richard they love it the San Francisco 49ers Mitchell they are playing gotta get this this down a little bit they're playing the JS Jets Jets Jets and I was a little concerned about this game I thought this may be a trap game first game of the season if Trent Williams was not in the fold but it's like it's like Kanye said everybody every body wondered how the ners would play if Trent Williams didn't show up I guess we'll never know I guess you'll never know because he showed up and I'm sure the New York Jets and my guy Robert Salo were not happy to see that news they would have been happy for him to hold out just one week just one week but he didn't I think he's going to come in shape and ready to roar I think this offense is going to be fun to watch guys got paid Bri Brandon auk is Happy Debo Samuels is Happy Christian mcaffrey little calf injury AES I'm not gonna say anything else about it happy the defense Nicholas John Bosa who we have not spoken a lot about we have not spoken a lot about him I think he's going to make a lot of noise Metro taleno huanga I I I gotta keep reading the Articles to see if they're going to clear him to play this week but was it was trending in the right direction um charvarius Ward everybody knows all the names my guy Fred Warner it's going to be a fun year to watch them it's gonna be a fun year to watch the San Francisco 49ers I think they pick up a big win against but but I think Aaron goes out and has his best game against the 49ers that he's had in his career he he's goingon to be effective because he's so excited Mitchell it's nothing like taking the game that you love away from you for you to appreciate it and they took it and let him they let him touch the field for four plays and then took it you you know all too well and Richard having suffered the Achilles injury that you did Aaron Rogers also coming back from his Achilles injury like what's going through his head I mean talk a little bit about your first game back from that injury I know you're playing a more mobile position than the quarterback position but you know what's going to be going through his head I what did you experience when you first came back uh well first off he's not first back Mitchell he was ding there trying to play last year which was a story we didn't we we we we we let you know we started at the end of last season and then we just let it go but that's still crazy so it is he's he's much further along than I ever was and the quarterback isn't about Mobility he looked like his old self in the practice clips that you see um everything he said he feels like his old self so he's had a lot more time and even a few practice reps and kind of a live game action fi situation I think he feels good about it I think he's going to be excited I think he feels like he owes Garett Wilson a great season a pro bowl All Pro season like he gave Devonte Adams not that Devonte is not an all pro all World receiver anyway but Aaron has something to do with that and I think he feels like losing that year last year he has something that he owes to Gar Wilson in the these and these New York Jets fans to Robert Salah to Joe Douglas who believed in him and and paid him and and continue to believe in him this defense that played their butt off all year even though the quarterback situation was what it was um it's going to be fun it's gonna be a fun game on Monday night I think that's going to be a really fun competitive game the Jets you know seeing Aaron what Aaron's going to do in his first game back Prime Time television in San Francisco well San Jose Santa Clair whatever you want to call it but it's going to be rocking cry L lenfield I gotta stop making these mistakes Lumen Field's going to be rocking Levi Stadium is going to be rocking it's

Brazil the Eagles against the Packers who do you like in this game I mean they're playing in Brazil rich they're playing in Brazil insane insane uh the world hey football is now International the NFL is international it's always been a dream of mine to play in the Olympics MIT it'll never happen but hopefully in a hundred years our kids kids can play tackle football in the Olympics that'd be really fun to watch but it's great to see the fans of Brazil South America getting a chance to see NFL football close and personal uh that's that's that's going to be there's games in Germany this year there's games in in the UK again it's games in Mexico you know vivala Mexico you know that's you know I'm just working on this you know a little bit but uh I I I think I it's a hard game to call because there's so many unknowns you know the way the Eagles ended last season the way the Packers ended last season we're in two different directions Mitchell pack ERS were were to the moon the Eagles looked like they were they were L to the Finish Line right and everything you've heard from training camp Jaylen Herz looks as good as he's ever looked AJ Brown got paid he looks he looks really good um you know you got saquan now the defense is renewed obviously bradberry's gone key Ringo's there uh we talked about CJ Gardner Johnson coming back they got Devin white uh to to sh up that linebacking core the dline has always been an incredible incredible dline but obviously they lost Assan reck uh to the Jets he hasn't shown up yet he wants to get paid I'm not sure what's going on there uh but then you got Green Bay the relatively again Young Bucks the young pistol starters the Young quarterback who earned his money $55 million second highest paid in the National Football League a receiving core uh Romeo dos uh Christian Watson these guys making names for themselves I think they're gonna they're going to do a really good job they did it by committee last year um Reed they did a really good job of just being able to execute um they spread the ball around Jordan love spread the ball around and this defense is is has been really consistent over the years um Jer Alexander still one of the top five quarterbacks in the National Football League you got Preston Smith they're going to get the pressure I know Jeff hle is going to have them dowed in they're going to dial up a lot of lot of three pressures in C but you can't leave these receivers one onone all day Mitchell you cannot so there's a lot of exciting storylines in this game Richard one of them that I'm truly most excited about is the running back battle we got two veterans that come over from different teams Josh Jacobs going to the Packers in the offseason and saquon Barkley the big news of the offseason going to division rival Eagles Richard what are your expectations of both of these guys let's start with Josh Jacobs you know many many saw when Aaron Jones moved on it was maybe a little bit of a lateral move do you think that Josh Jacobs is that much of an upgrade for the Packers and what are your expectations of him uh this season well I expected he's always been productive and he's going to continue to be productive he's a really good running back in the National Football League but I didn't think Aaron Aaron Jones was anything to to to Sni to you know what I mean to sneeze at like he was a really good back and played really good in the playoffs in their most productive run he was productive in the playoff game against Dallas he was productive playoff game against San Francisco he's productive so I didn't really understand the move to get rid of him or let him walk but I think Josh Jacobs is a is a power back he was one of the best n backs in the National Football League uh a few years ago and he's had his moments um in a very tough situation in Las Vegas where he he still looked dominant so I think in a winning culture with a winning team uh I think Matt laflor is going to do a good job getting him in spots that he wants to be great in Lanes this inside outside mid Zone that they're going to run is it's going to be really good fit for him uh but I think it's going to come down to the defenses in the secondaries um obviously Billy's secondary was much malign last year they went from a top two top three pass defense to bottom of the league somehow and I don't know if it had more to do with the pass rush injuries to the cornerback position scheme you know they switched coordinators Midway through the year it was just so much chaos going on so hopefully there's more stability this year there's more consistency there's more sound scheme uh and they can be better because they have all the talent in the world Darius Slay our guy friend of the program um still an incredible incredible Talent hopefully he's able to Showcase that this year um I want to I want to go with Philly winning this that's what my I don't want to even say that's what my gut says it's what that's what the the paper says that's what should happen but Green Bay has just really just slapped me with in the face with Humble Pie too consistently huh too consistently but they're young young I see you processing over there Richard miss the Eagles are going to win you know what my friend I disagree with you I'm going to go against you on this game I don't want you I don't know what you want to put up for Stakes but I think unfortunately for me I think the NFC North uh Green Bay Packers are going to come out with the dub tomorrow Richard they've got too many young players uh too many options no true number one wide receiver just a bunch of number twos and then you bring in Josh Jacobs with their two young tight ends and a upand cominging quarterback I'm nervous about the Packers this year I got them coming out Victorious tomorrow Rich we shall see what happens we can we can easily bet an assai Bowl on this right now how about how about this Rich you give me your brightling watch when uh when the Packers win how about that H you know now that we're sponsored by brightling you know I do feel a little bit more liberal about how I move with things Mitchell but I cannot give up a gift brought To Us by our new title sponsor brightling I'm not going to do it Mitchell you can get an assai bowl and you're gonna I like it fair enough Richard I will let you
