Below is head coach Andy Reid's Sept 24 press conference previewing the franchise's upcoming game and recapping last week. View his comments below.

Q: On Patrick Mahomes throwing deeper this season.

  • REID: “We practiced it. You’ve got to practice that. The percentages go down on long balls anyways compared to the short intermediate gains the further you go down the field. So, you’ve got to put in the time there and practice it and as coaches we got to make sure we give them an opportunity to do that before game time. We spent a little bit more time with that, so it would be a part of the offense. And then he (Patrick Mahomes) could get used to these guys doing the routes.”

Q: After halftime did you guys come out more confident offensively?

  • REID: “Yeah, I thought it was better the second half for sure. It ended on a good note that way, but you’ve got to build on that, when you’re going against a good defense. So, you got to make sure we take care of business this week. Make sure we detail our work.”

Q: What do you see from the Ravens defensively?

  • REID: “Well (Defensive Coordinator Zach) Orr, he’s a good one – defensive coordinator. He brings guys from all over when needed and at the same time they play good sound defense on top of that. They’ve got good players. I’m sure he will have some change ups from what he did with us last time. We’ll just have to adjust to it. But he does a nice job with that defense (and) he has a lot of flexibility there of what he can do and with the players.”

Q: What do you expect from the Ravens?

  • REID: “They’re a tough football team. It should be a good tough football game, and that’s the way you prepare yourself, sure.”
