DeAndre Hopkins<\/a> has been an elite NFL wide receiver for the better part of a decade. After playing with Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, he is now going to the Baltimore Ravens to play with another top-tier quarterback in Lamar Jackson. Going away from Mahomes is quite a thing, but for Hopkins, it\u2019s what\u2019s on the other side what drove him there.<\/p>\n

A report from Jamison Hensley of ESPN states that Hopkins saw the Ravens<\/a> were a missing piece away from winning it all. \u201cIt seems like there\u2019s been\u00a0a piece that\u2019s been missing,\u201d Hopkins said. \u201cI could be that addition. I could not be that addition.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hopkins is 33 years old, so he is in the twilight of his career but he is still a worthy assett to have on a roster. Baltimore has a complete roster and Hopkins should add experience to it. The debt of this team is to go to the Super Bowl and Hopkins just played in it. Even if it\u2019s on a leadership role, having him there is good for the team.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a reason the Ravens haven\u2019t been able to get to the Super Bowl<\/p>\n

Many critique Lamar Jackson<\/a> for failing to go deep in the playoffs. As of now, he has a 3-5 record, which gives those critics ammo. However, while you can see his stats dipping in the playoffs, not everything can fall on Lamar\u2019s shoulders. <\/p>\n

Players like Zay Flowers and Mark Andrews have had fatal mistakes that costed the Ravens playoff games. That is not Jackson\u2019s responsibility. However, the expectations for a two-time MVP are Super Bowl rings.<\/p>\n

<\/a>This year, more challenges are ahead<\/p>\n

First, the Ravens might need Hopkins to help them go over their own hump, but there\u2019s more. After that, you have to go through many more challenges. First and foremost, their division is hard as nails. Facing the Pittsburgh Steelers and Aaron Rodgers<\/a>, the Cincinnati Bengals and Joe Burrow, and the Cleveland Browns twice is not easy.<\/p>\n

Then, when the playoffs roll around, there are the Buffalo Bills with reigning MVP Josh Allen<\/a> waiting to crush the party\u2026 Oh, and a certain team called the Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes, the NFL<\/a>\u2018s modern day dynasty. The Ravens are in a great spot to challenge all teams, but it\u2019s not going to be easy.<\/p>\n
