Purple Pride Power Hour

Send a text Ravens fall again for the second time in two weeks.  Some might say the script looked eerily similar to the Bills game with a 4th quarter fumble.  But many would say the lack of performance from the defense is what put this game away early.   The Lions rushed for over 220 yards; a feat that only two other teams had done in franchise history. Now, fans are wondering what in the world is...

Send a text John Harbaugh out duels his younger brother Jim Harbaugh in primetime as he increases his record to 3-0. Ravens use their smash mouth run game to defeat the Chargers in Inglewood.  Derrick Henry would lead the way with 140 yards on the ground, while Lamar Jackson and Justice Hill would see pay dirt .  The Ravens would rush for over 200 yards in this game, which would be for the 4th tim...

Send a text After a tough close loss to division rival, The Pittsburgh Steelers, the Ravens will take their talents to the west coast as they square off against the Los Angelos Chargers in primetime.  Jim and John Harbaugh are two legendary coaches in all of football. Jim Harbaugh made his return to the NFL after a 10 year hiatus.  He was widely successful at the collegiate level as his former tea...

Send a text Ravens and Bengals put on another thriller, but it would come late in the second half of the game. The Ravens trailed by 14 late in the third quarter, and per usual Lamar Jackson had another 'superman' performance to help propel them pass the Bengals. This win would help the Ravens complete yet another sweep of the Bengals for the second consective season. The last regular se...

Send a text The Baltimore Ravens 5 game win streak came to a screeching halt by the hand of an AFC North Division rival, the Cleveland Browns.  There's many to blame for this loss: the offense dropped passes, the defense dropped INTs, Justin Tucker missed a field goal.  At the end of the day, they are a team and this was for sure a TEAM loss. With that being said, the Ravens are 9.5 point fav...

Send a text The Ravens will take their talents to Cleveland as they will face their second divisional opponent this season in the Browns.  The Browns lone win would come in week two against the Jags, however since then they have loss 5 straight.  If that is not enough, this past Sunday they would lose their franchise QB, Deshaun Watson, for the year with a torn achilles. The Ravens go into Clevela...

Send a text The Ravens offense has been 'red hot' this past month with Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry leading the way.  This is seemingly becoming the best QB/RB duo in recent memory, or maybe in NFL history.  Tonight was no different.  Though they got off to a slow start in the first two drives, and found themselves in a 10-0 deficit. They would quickly find their footing, and it was a...

Send a text The highly anticipated matchup between 2X NFL MVP Lamar Jackson and 2023 Heisman Trophy Winner Jayden Daniels  for sure did not disappoint.  They both held their own and accounted for 654 total yards and 3 touchdowns.  Of course, the Ravens played take away ball as they dominated T.O.P. for 36 minutes and ran the ball over 150+ yards on just 37 touches. Jayden Daniels was not to be tak...

Send a text This game is setting itself up to be an absolute delight on Sunday afternoon at the M&T Bank stadium.  Jayden Daniels, rookie from LSU, and the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner, is taking the NFL by storm.  The Commanders have won 4 straight games and have outscored their opponents 135-78, and in 3 of their last 4 wins they have held their opponents under 20 points (avg about 15ppg).  Th...

Send a text The Baltimore Ravens and Cincinatti Bengals put on a game for the ages. It is being said this game for sure will be a GOTY (game of the year) candidate. Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow account for 962 total yards and 9 touchdowns.  Jamaar Chase nearly repeated his performance against the Ravens two years ago with 193 yards and 2 touchdowns.  But, not so fast because Lamar's favorite...

Send a text This game has much to be desired.  On the one hand, the Ravens are riding a two-game win streak after starting the season 0-2.  On the other hand, the Bengals loss three straight, but were able to get their first win of the season last week against a less-talented squad in the Carolina Panthers.  So, we can safely say both teams could slowly be trending upward.  However, this game is a...

Send a text It would take just one play from the offense on the first drive to establish the tone for this game. Derrick Henry's first play from scrimmage would go for 87 yards to the house. He would end the night with over 200 total yards of offense and two total touchdowns.  Lamar Jackson was also sensational, and as the unquestionable leader of this team, it's only up from here.  The...

Send a text Ravens are set to host the Bills in a 'Sunday Night Delight'.  The Bills will enter M&T Bank Stadium undefeated led by their franchise Quarterback, Josh Allen, seeking to improve to 4-0.  This may be short-lived if the Ravens can get their same second straight win of the season, and first at home.  Ravens fell short in a close one in their 2024 home opener against the Rai...

Send a text The Ravens win in dominate fashion in Dallas, although it appeared they were mounting a comeback.  The offensive line issues were put to the side, at least for this game.  We'd have to see if this formula will continue as the Ravens will face two formidable opponents.  With that being said, there was a lot of positive coming out of the first win for the 2024 campaign. As in all th...

Send a text Last week the Ravens would lead the Raiders 23-13 before surrendering and ultimately losing the game.  It was all too familiar for Ravens fans to see yet another 4th quarter lead erased by the Ravens.  Not only have this been an issue, but the offensive identity of this team have haunted them for the past several seasons.   Now they head down to the D-Town, home of the "America&ap...

Send a text In today's episode of the Purple Pride Power Hour podcast, I will give my perspective on the state of the Ravens, as they start their 2024 campaign with an overall record of 0-2.  They would lose a close one against Gardner Minshew and the Las Vegas Raiders at home! This would not only our second consecutive loss this season, but the second time they would lose to Gardner Minshew....

Send a text The Ravens took a tough loss against the defending back-to-back Superbowl Champs, the Kansas City Chiefs in Arrowhead.  It was a nail-biter down the end when Isaiah Likely appeared to have scored a game-tying touchdown, and appeared to have been going for the 2-point conversion for the win.  However, they would come up short by the TOE of Likely's cleat.   This week the Ravens wil...

Send a text What a thrilling season opener, the Baltimore Ravens fell just short against the Kansas City Chiefs in Arrowhead, with the game ultimately decided by the narrowest of margins. Both quarterbacks, Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes, showcased their elite skills, delivering impressive performances that kept fans on the edge of their seats. Rookie Xavier Worthy scored twice (one on the grou...
