The Ravens’ intriguing storyline missing in ‘Hard Knocks’
The Ravens had a tough time getting screen time on the latest episode of “Hard Knocks: In Season with the AFC North.” After a quick scene-setting shot of a team meeting, they were barely featured. But fear not, Ravens fans! Here’s a quick rundown of what you might have missed.
Coach John Harbaugh shared some inspiring words with the team before their bye week, emphasizing the challenges they’ve faced and the need to get ready for the upcoming games. Despite the lack of airtime, his motivational speech was a highlight of the episode.
One amusing moment included Ravens RB Derrick Henry looking rather bemused, which left us wondering if he had just seen Khalil Mack in the hallway. And let’s not forget the on-the-nose edit of kicker Justin Tucker nodding along as Harbaugh talked about getting your mind ready for football.
Although the show promises “all-access coverage,” it seems to fall short when teams have creative control. The recent suspension of wide receiver Diontae Johnson and the drama surrounding it were conspicuously absent from the episode, leaving fans wanting more insight into the situation.
On a brighter note, Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase, a thorn in the Ravens’ side this season, showed a more likable side in his “Hard Knocks” spotlight. His positive interactions with teammates and fans may just make it a bit easier to root for him, despite his success against the Ravens on the field.
Overall, while the Ravens may not have had much screen time in the latest episode, there were still some interesting moments to catch up on. Stay tuned for more updates and insights in the next episode of “Hard Knocks: In Season with the AFC North.”
