Flock Nation was given a full day to lament, agonize and stew about the Ravens’ 38-30 defeat to the Detroit Lions in the NFL on Monday night.

Do you have any cause for concern or worry? Certainly. Both sides of the football, especially defense, need to be addressed by the Ravens.

There’s plenty of football left to play and many reasons for Ravens supporters to remain optimistic about their team’s fortunes in this season.

Childs Walker of The Baltimore Banner said that the defeat on Monday night could be beneficial.

Walker wrote: “Maybe this is what the team needs after feeling for two seasons that only the Ravens can beat the Ravens.” “Maybe they need to examine themselves and realize that nothing is taken for granted.

The franchise’s most profitable seasons were based on these calculations. The 2012 Ravens almost went off track, changing offensive coordinators just two months before their celebration in a showering of Crescent City Confetti. The 2000 team was without a touchdown for five weeks in a row and switched quarterbacks.

Rich Eisen cited several reasons for his continued optimism about the Ravens. This is especially true in relation to their chances of winning AFC North a third time.

Are you worried that the Ravens are still not the best team in their division? Not me,” Eisen said on “The Rich Eisen Show.” “Definitely not when they have Lamar Jackson.” He’s still Lamar Jackson man.

I understand that the defense will have to tighten at some point. The team was missing [Nnamdi] Madubuike [Monday] and Kyle Van Noy, and were facing a team who were fully equipped to take advantage of it.
