Ro is overrated as fukk. Just big loud mouth at this point

Harbs needs to go seriously. This is ridiculous. We going to do the same bullshyt every year until Lamar ain't got it no more?

Dline got no pressure

Jaire looks washed too
It just makes no sense to me. Any other team in the league would’ve cut him loose between 2013-17 if not after 2010, 2011, or after the 2012 mutiny. That he survived his 2019 flameout and his 2023 tank job are absolutely unforgivable. It’s hard to properly put it into words without sounding like a talking head attempting to go viral and make the story about himself.

How grim is it that Ozzie finally drafting a stud quarterback doomed the ravens for the next decade? Every now and then I find myself wishing he whiffed on the pick because there’s no way any owner wouldn’t have fired a coach who missed the playoffs 4 years straight and 5 times in 6 years.

Remember they signed RG3 as well that year.

Lamar was really rough as a passer that year. He just was dynamic enough to still win games despite the roster and not being ready yet.
Too bad Harbaugh didnt Jordan Love him and sit him all his rookie year, lol.

More about that clock management


Tell me....When do you think Aaron Rodgers snaps the ball in that scenario? Is the coach telling him in the headset.... or does he have veteran and situational awareness?

Who's responsibility is it to determine when the ball is snapped each play? Just curious.

The good it would’ve done this team if he sat that year…

It’s probably on both of them, but given that it’s year 18 for Harbaugh and that he’s still Andy Reid/Herm Edwards/Mike McCarthy territory at managing the clock and had already given Buffalo an extra 3 points with his clock management in the first half, it’s more on him. He needs to make sure his team is locked in mentally and they never are, which precedes Lamar by 10 full seasons.

Here’s my thing why can’t the secondary cover anyone and why is there always a weak link in the secondary?
Pees and Orr. They don’t put anyone in position to make plays. Their philosophy is that as long as you don’t give up a bunch of 50+ yard touchdown passes where the ball is thrown deep, then it’s all good.

Its the scheme

the corners were playing 10 yards off the line of scrimmage the whole 4th quarter

Soft zones and no pass rush will always get you cooked

I have no idea why they switched up how they were playing

after that checkdown to Cook where he got like 50 yards when the Ravens called a zero blitz they went conservative and it cost them

That was Roquons man btw and he didn’t even attempt to cover him

Hes one of the biggest problems on defense

hes slow and he doesn’t make any plays in the pass or run game

I haven’t checked to see what the cap hit will be but they have to get rid of him after this season

Hes not worth 20 mill per
