Did the Ravens give us the single most impressive win of the NFL season? I think they did. We're

0:28.4

going to ask Vilma that as well. Undefined Cardinals and the Mahomes roller coaster against

0:33.6

Washington. I do a massive college football breakdown. We're going to talk with Jonathan

0:37.0

Vilma and Life Advice. We start with the best win this season. And that's the Baltimore Ravens

0:46.8

stomping the Los Angeles Chargers. I think it's the best resume win of any team in the NFL this year.

0:53.2

Others in the mix, the Rams, Take Care of Tampa Bay at home, Arizona, beaten up on

1:32.3

Chargers defense is number 18 overall. They're even like some people think they're the worst against

1:36.7

the run. It depends on which numbers you want to look at because the Chiefs are basically they

1:39.5

have find a way into the argument of the worst defenses of any unit of any stat that you want to

1:43.3

look at. But here's the other sneaky part of this for Baltimore. Is there actually not great

1:47.9

on defense? At least they weren't until yesterday. Twenty second overall and twenty second against
