Episode 38 - Today's NFL Fans
Aug 29, 201900:03:56Tap to summarizeThe era of Fantasy Football has ushered in a new breed of fan. Their compassion towards players is anesthetized by their own fulfillment. What's in it for me? Did my fantasy team win? As quickly as they'd bench, trade or cut an underperforming player in the fantasy world, they seek the same knee-jerk treatment for the players in the real world. And then there are those old school fans. They'll tell you stories about how tough players used to be. How they weren't coddled like today's athletes. Both need to open their eyes to reality.
Transcribe →Episode 37 - The Good Guys
Aug 29, 201900:02:30Tap to summarizeMany fans believe that Tyreek Hill and Kareem Hunt and players with character red flags represent a significant portion of NFL players. That's not true AT ALL. In fact, it's safe to say that the good guys in the NFL, as a percentage, surpass the percentage of the general population.
Transcribe →Episode 36 - He's a Hack!
Aug 28, 201900:02:38Tap to summarizeRecently, Tony Lombardi had the great pleasure of being the guest speaker at a Ravens Nest 14 Meeting. After sharing some insight, a few stories and hosting a Q&A, one of the members approached him and asked how he knew before everyone else, that Dean Pees was retiring. Generally RSR is not in the news breaking business but this piece of breaking news was an exception. The Nest member asked Tony about the source of the information. "Sorry, I can't reveal that", Tony said. So, to corroborate Tony's story, the Nest Member went to another source who quickly labeled him a hack. Press play for the rest of the story...

Aug 26, 201900:03:00Tap to summarizeRussell Street Report writers were regulars on 105.7 The Fan...until an April Fools Joke ruffled the feathers of CBS Radio management. Tough to believe, right? Here's the rest of the story.

Aug 26, 201900:02:24Tap to summarizeThe Ravens and PA Announcer Bruce Cunningham appear to have amicably parted ways. At least that's how they are playing it publicly. But was it really as simple as Cunningham deciding he no longer had the passion for the job or was it more? In this recap we dare to speculate.
Transcribe →Episode 33 - Trace McSorley's Case to Make the Final 53
Aug 26, 201900:02:56Tap to summarizeUp until his stellar performance against the Eagles, Trace McSorley has been rather inconsistent during Ravens training camp and the preseason. His outing in Philadelphia strengthened his case to make Baltimore's Final 53 Man Roster. But was is enough? Will the Ravens carry 3 quarterbacks again in 2019?
Transcribe →Episode 32 - Colts out of Luck
Aug 26, 201900:02:58Tap to summarizeThe Andrew Luck retirement announcement was a shocker. It's a huge blow to the Indianapolis Colts – a team with Super Bowl aspirations. It's a huge blow to the NFL. No one wants to see that kind of talent in the prime of his career, leave the game. But it happened and it saddens all who love the National Football League. Unless your a Colts fan, then it ticks you off and inspires you to boo a class act like Luck.
Transcribe →Episode 31 - Ravens OL Still has Big Question Marks
Aug 12, 201900:03:15Tap to summarizeWe are now two weeks into training camp and the Ravens offensive line concerns still linger. Many have the same questions now as they did when camp started. Who will play left guard? Has Matt Skura improved enough in the offseason to adequately handle the center position? Recent scrimmaging against the Jacksonville Jaguars did little to calm the O-Line concerns.
Transcribe →Episode 30 - Ravens Offense Could be Electric
Aug 12, 201900:03:28Tap to summarizeRavens offensive coordinator Greg Roman has several new weapons to tinker with this season. And if those weapons gel, Baltimore's offense could soar to unprecedented heights. Here's why in our latest Russell Street Recap...
Transcribe →Episode 29 - Might the Ravens Consider Kaepernick?
Jul 29, 201900:02:37Tap to summarizeRGIII will miss a few weeks after suffering a fractured thumb on his throwing hand during the team's practice at M&T Bank Stadium this past Saturday night. The injury sets the team back a bit because at the moment, they'll be forced to go with two quarterbacks in camp and that's a heavy load to handle for Lamar Jackson and Trace McSorley. The Ravens are likely to sign a backup QB as soon as today and the pickings are thin. The names of Brock Osweiler and Josh Johnson have been bantered about but there's one player out there who schematically is a perfect fit for the new Ravens offense.
