Here at Glenn Clark Radio, we always reflect on the Baltimore Ravens game in a more jovial manner. In retrospect, we like to choose five players on the team who — depending on the outcome of the game — deserve a Pat On The Ass or Slap To The Helmet.
The rules are simple: pick two players on defense, two players on offense, and one “wild card” (an offensive player, defensive player, special teamer or coach) who stuck out from the pack.
As you know, we woke up yesterday with the Ravens beating the Titans over in London at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, in turn, we have some Ass Pats to hand out.
They will count down in sequential order before we name the ultimate prize — Two Pats on the Ass. That one player who one single Pat just wouldn’t sit right, our Man of the Match.
Without further adieu:
Glenn’s Week 6 Pats On The Ass:
5. S Geno Stone
Let’s get it out of the way. I left Justin Tucker off the list. His longest kick was 41 yards. But what a play for Stone and what a season he’s having as a legit playmaker.
4. WR Zay Flowers
Not just his first touchdown but also just getting back to being both reliable and at times, explosive.
3. EDGE Jadeveon Clowney
He finally broke through to record a multi-sack game. While that might be a bit inflated due to Malik Willis being very comfortable holding on to the ball, he’s still number 10 in the whole league this season in pass rush win rate according to ESPN Analytics.
2. QB Lamar Jackson
The word is “efficient.” The interception looks like it was on Bateman and he made some truly jaw dropping plays during the game. Tremendous performance.
1. DL Justin Madubuike (Man Of The Match)
Best player on the field. An absolute monster.
Griffin’s Week 6 Pats On The Ass:
5. K Justin Tucker
6/6 on field goal kicks is legit even if they were all inside 41 yds. He beat the Titans by himself.
4. WR Zay Flowers
He just looks good, does so much, YAC, most targeted pass catcher, and scored that first career TD.
3. OLB Kyle Van Noy
Had it from the start, batted pass on 3rd down and was all over the Titans backfield making it a long day for Tannehill and Willis. Part has to do with his low expectations, but he was terrific.
2. QB Lamar Jackson
He is the run game and the pass game. The offense looks better when he’s running, extending plays with his legs and being Lamar Jackson.
1. DT Justin Madubuike (Man Of The Match)
Made big plays in big spots all game and the stats back it up: 2 sacks, 2 TFL’s, 4 QB hits…had to deal with Derrick Henry too. He’s in line to get some cash this Spring (hopefully before that, EDC!).
