Welcome into the Lounge presented by Draft Kings.

I'm Ryan Mink, here with Garrett Downing, and we are going to get you set for the Ravens Sunday game at M&T Bank Stadium against the Los Angeles Rams.

This is a game between two very good teams in the AFC and NFC respectively, but for the Ravens, they need

a win despite who they're playing, sitting at one and four. They need to break this three

game losing streak, and it's not going to be easy against the Rams team that's three and two,

and is also smarting after a tough loss last week, and they're coming off extra rest.

So Garrett, as you look at this game, as I just said, the Ravens are desperate for a win.

They have the buy next week, but they would love to go into this buy in the win column.

Yeah, there's no question about that.

This team is certainly understanding of the situation that they find themselves in at this point

of the season.

And I think that there's a real sense in talking with players this week, I think that

that Texans game, wake up calls a tournament, it's getting thrown around.

It probably is fair.

It's probably a fair assessment.

But I think that, like, there's been even more, I guess, urgency, it seems of like, okay, this season is at a real crossroads to a certain degree.

And it's like there's a responsibility and an accountability.

These have all kind of been buzzwords over the course of the week.

Accountability, urgency, wake up call, all that stuff.

And I get the sense that the players are embracing that

and doing everything they can behind the scenes to get this thing pointed in the right direction.

And they know that it's an uphill battle, I think. But there's definitely no... The Ravens know that time is ticking on this season. And that they, if they're going to be a team that gets to the playoffs and do what they want to do, they've got to start putting some wins together. And they want that to start this week. You have the very least need to start playing better. Yeah.
