Kansas City Chiefs: Getting to know the Ravens before week 3

On Baltimore’s offense, aside from Jackson, on whom do the Chiefs need to key?

“If you want to beat the Ravens you can’t let [tight end] Mark Andrews destroy the secondary. Andrews is Jackson’s favorite target and it’s not close. As much as Jackson loves [wide receiver] Marquise Brown (who may be the next Tyreek Hill) he has a historically good thing going on with Andrews. Andrews is the match up nightmare. Taking away Andrews will take away the easy throws from Jackson. Jackson is still capable of winning the day with his arm, but to make it a fair fight you have to hold Andrews to just a few catches.”

Ravens have six total sacks through two weeks against the Browns and Texans. Is that due to one particular player or more of a unit-wide effort?

“The pass rush has been a group effort. [Outside linebacker] Tyus Bowser is the only player with two sacks and the outside linebackers haven’t been applying enough effort on their own. Two sacks have come from defensive back blitzes, one has come from Patrick Queen blitzing and [defensive end] Calais Campbell has gotten involved from the defensive line.”

Lastly, what’s your prediction for Monday Night Football?

“Give me the Ravens 31-28. I think the Ravens are the best team in the NFL overall. I think they were a year away from being a Super Bowl team and now the iron is hot. No matter what anyone says this game means a little more, and Baltimore is hungry for it. It boils down to that and which defense will get the most stops. Based on the first two weeks of the season I have to say that I trust the Ravens to get the job done there. It will be a great game. These are the best two teams in football. I believe it’s Baltimore’s year and I believe you’ll see that on Monday Night Football.”

There you have it, Chiefs Kingdom. What do you guys think of Schisler’s information about the Ravens? My main takeaway is that I have a new favorite player, the dude named Bowser.

How can you root against that?
