“Does he see more failure from the coaching staff or the effects of an undermanned roster as the primary reason for Baltimore’s struggles?” Unfortunately I believe Steve needs to realize it's both. Front Office fault At the last draft Harbs described sitting back and watching OZ and DeCosta work their magic. That's leads me to believe Harbs a very little say in who get picked. FO has never supplies the Ravens with talent at Wr position. OZ method is to rely on short-term old vets. The offensive line has been a mess and he failed to retain guys like Grubbs, KO, Jason Brown. At the same time he over paid Webb, J Smith, and gives Wright a contract (smh) If either of them were worth the money, the secondary would not be in the shape it is now. Weddle represents OZ continue approach of stop gap solutions instead of drafting and retaining young talent. The team after 6th overall pick and 11 picks in total still lack a consistent pass rusher, depth on the o-line, and play makers. That has nothing to do with Harbs. Harbs fault Harbs has failed as well. This team lacks discipline and toughness. Every week he says the team needs to play smart , run the ball effectively, and be disciplined. Yet, every week we see the exact opposite. He explains what went wrong like its the players or coordinators fault. Why can he tell Trestman or Marty to call more run plays? He seems dependent on the coordinators instead of them following his lead. Young players on John's watch never hit the field. Most don't seems to grow. Brown, Elam, Doss, and yes even Joe. Joe still acts like he can't read a defense, call his own plays so he can stop blaming the OC, his fundamentals are not consistent. So what does John bring to the team if he can oversee the development of his QB? Steve needs to add a new perspective to the draft, scouting, and contracts. He also should start looking for a new head coach that can help develop players, revive the physical style of play that works in the AFC North, and adds expertise to the offense or defense.
