Hey, what's up everybody? Welcome into Tom Carin's Patriots Talk podcast featuring Phil A. Perry. We got a ton to get to today. Let's look back at that Baltimore Ravens game and hand out some grades.

Plus, those young guys who made big contributions, is that worth setting off the confetti cannons for?

Or is that how it ought to be? We'll have John McLean dive in from the Houston Chronicle,

and he'll tell us exactly what's going on down in that mess in Texas. With that mess in Texas.

Be that as it may. There's all that and more on Tom Curran's Patriots Talk podcast featuring Phil A. Perry.

in the aftermath podcast, though. I don't want to dwell on that too much. Instead, what I want to

jump into is your report card a little bit. I bet your highly graded groups were on the offensive side of the ball,

particularly down in the trenches.

No doubt.

No doubt.

You look at what this offensive line did against an okay run defense.

They honestly, it's not a great group that they have over there.

And that's even with Callais Campbell.

They're allowing about four and a half yards per carry coming into the game.

And they were missing not only Clayus Campbell, but they're missing Brandon Williams as well.

Their nose tackle in the middle.

So they're struggling against the run. And when you look at their rookie linebackers who play a ton, but not all that well, Tom.
