  • The fun is in understanding why

    One of the great things about Filmstudy is that it almost doesn’t matter whether the Ravens win or lose. Of course I want us to win, but half the enjoyment now comes from learning why we won or lost.

    So many fan podcasts ride the emotional rollercoaster, with losses turning into frustration, blame and hot takes. Ken and his guests offer something far more rewarding: a consistently cerebral, curious and evidence-led look at the game. They go back to the film, examine the numbers, break down sche... more

  • #1 Ravens Podcast!

    I've listened to almost every episode of Ravens Film Study over the past 2.5 years from start to finish, and I'm honestly embarrassed it's taken me this long to finally write a review; especially since Ken reminds us at the end of every episode how much reviews help the show! In my defense, I do tell just about everyone I know about the podcast!

    A Baltimore fan through and through, nobody puts more time, effort and thought into their analysis than Ken McKusick. I absolutely love his analytical,... more

  • Best in Baltimore

    I went on a self indulged football academic journey a few years ago when I realized that I loved the sport of football which I’d been watching for years, but having never played it at an organized level growing up I lacked a lot of the technical and schematic knowledge about the game. I was tired of all the other ravens “hype” podcasts that are out there where they just spew useless praising of obviously good players and needless harping on “bad” ones, providing no actual insight and value to so... more

  • Filmstudy!

    Man what a great podcast. You will be hard pressed to find a better podcast than this one in regards to the Baltimore Ravens. Ken does a great job of breaking down the game and making it understandable to everyone. He covers a wide range of topics including scheme, matchups, cap, waiver wires, injuries and roster manipulation and shows a great understanding of not only the Baltimore Ravens but also the NFL and football in general. I listen daily and cannot recommend it enough!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Offense vs Falcons Part 2
Q: What did Snoop in the passing game change or do better in the final two drives? Why success then, but not earlier?
Jacob says the late-game offense better suited Huntley's strengths, with more completions around seven to eight yards and a clearer fit for his quick, single-read decisions. Ken adds that the late-game opportunity set improved, including blitzes that vacated intermediate areas.
Offense vs Falcons Part 2
Q: What did you think about Minter's decision to take the ball at the start of overtime? Do you think Henry being rested in for the fourth quarter weighed into this decision?
Ken says taking the ball was the right choice because it gives a team a chance to benefit from the third possession in overtime; he says Henry's rest did not factor into the decision. Jacob agrees that taking the ball makes sense under the new rules.
Friday Morning GM 10/16/26 Part 2
Q: Would you expect the Ravens to trade Malaki Starks for a second-, seventh- and sixth-round pick, and would you accept that offer next year if his play stays at the same level?
McKusick says he would accept that return if Starks' play remained at that level by next year, while Lericos favors giving him more time and notes his remaining team control.
Friday Morning GM 10/16/26 Part 2
Q: Do you see anyone on the staff as a potential replacement for offensive coordinator in a year or so if Declan leaves?
They say Israel Woolfork appears to be the likeliest internal option, but the Ravens may look outside the organization, potentially at a coach from Ben Johnson's coaching tree.
Friday Morning GM 10/23/26 Part 2
Q: Snaps per drive are higher with Huntley than Lamar. I think this is after the Atlanta game, by the way. I think this is before the Browns game. Lamar 5.8 snaps per drive and Huntley prior to the Browns game 6.3 snaps per drive.
Ken considers the difference mostly noise and says points per drive matter more. Vas says the offense was among the top five in DVOA with Lamar and that Huntley's extra snaps can be offset by fewer explosive plays and first downs.
