Well, hello, everyone. I am Matt Williamson. How's it going? At Williamson, NFL. Drop me a line there any time.

0:14.2

We are going to talk strength of schedule today. And as everyone does in this industry, we are stealing it straight from Warren Sharp,

0:23.9

who has a betting site and is very knowledgeable and analytically driven. And I'm sure a lot of you

0:33.1

can be like, well, why do I need to listen to this? I'll just go to, I'll just Google Strength the Schedule

2:00.3

Frankly, I don't know why the Ravens are right

2:02.5
