[BR News]

The Ravens are 1-5 and are tied for the worst record in the league, but battled and will continue to do so.

Under John, I see an overhaul.

[OzzieBisciotti]

Harbs has always loved SSS even before the Ravens. So I blame him or Oz for keeping SSS over our Torrey and Jacoby- SSS is a stud, but he's a rent a receiver and he's gone after this year.

Funny how Torrey and Anquan got the last laugh with both having 100 yard games. Funny how our receivers and our cornerbacks can't catch too.

Uh..Hey Coach.. Knock knock. who's there? 1-5! John you can talk all you want about fight, but at the end of the day. .....like BJack Brad Jackson said on Ravens post game a SB 35 Champ. "Your fighting a losing battle" 1-5

[OzzieBisciotti]

Harbs also has to take a class next Summer on time management- when will he finally learn? There was no reason why he burned those two timeouts in the 2nd half- shouldn't have challenged the call- Harbs is a good coach, but he needs more players who are leaders- Ray Lewis said this on his way out, and people laughed- now see what happened.. I think Pees has got to go as well- our defense sucked last year too. Or, Ozzie has to go because he's not getting the talent anymore- just because he's drafted well in the past, it shouldn't mean that he has some kind of automatic tenureship for lifetime. It's not about what you've done in the past, it's about what you're doing now- and frankly, the last five drafts haven't been great and who cares if we have all these comp picks if we can't draft anyone good with them- it's like we're proud to have these picks- the only reason why is because we don't want to pay fair wages to some (of course we can't keep all) of our players that we should keep.

Harbs.... its not just fight harder... it is fight smarter. We look lost a 1/4 of the time on defense... we have Joe looking confused at times on offense. Our penalties kill us week in and week out and we place Shareece Wright (a guy with less then a week of preparation) in man coverage (with no help over the top) vs their top WR time and time again and wonder why he gets beat? Its not fight harder at this point. We need to fight smarter!

[purpledown]

i hope Harbs doesnt lose the team, he is a good coach. The question is when will the Ravens win a game?

[Ravensfansince03]

I feel sorry for John. Although I did see this loss coming. Last weekend I accepted that fact that we are a losing team this season. I knew our defense most likely wouldn't be as good this season, but this is just unacceptable.

[Ravensfansince03]

It'll be a very awkward day at our next home game, what do the fans have to cheer for? They cant chant "DEFENSE,DEFENSE,DEFENSE" because its obvious that we don't have one. The values this team once had that made other teams respect and fear this franchise are all gone.

We'll keep fighting? LMAO. Spare me w/ that hot air. The ravens wouldn't even hustle to the line to spike the damn ball late in the 4th. What fight? This team has already quit.

Feel sorry for John??  You should feel sorry for us fans... John and Oz are the ones who built this team together...

[Hardhitters]

We need a new head coach to bring in his own guys that can make a difference, under Billick everybody became head coaches, under Harbaugh they become coordinators that come back and beat him. I wish Billick had Flacco when he was here, he kept a superior defensive coordinator while he knew offense.

O Ray Lewis, where art thou?

[cjmosley57]

Pees is the Cam Cameron of our defense. Harbs is too friendly to him and has kept him years past his useful value (if he had any). His inability to make any adjustments throughout a game, over the course of years, is completely unacceptable. Not saying it means much, but typically our defensive coordinators go on to become head coaches after a short stint with us, no team asks about Pees...

[Purple Dawg 96]

Hey Harbs you gotta bench Joe Flacco or he will get you canned along with Pees and Marlon will get cut as well! It's on paper INT, INT,INT,INT going all the way back to costing you and Triple " S " his ring! It's on film and paper he is bringing this squad down!

[Zeus]

OH Harbs, we scoff because it's the same thing every single weekend end. Nothing is improving except your after game speeches and you refuse to blame pees for anything.

Season is over get your head out of the sand, who do you think we can beat?

[Minionhunter]

This team needs a shake up to reset the current vibe. They take their lead from Harbs and he is stunned right now. You can hear it in his voice. He is punch drunk going into a short week. Either fire Pees immediately and try to right the ship OR stay the course fire Pees at season ends and see what Ozzie can do with a top 5 pick and new DC next year.

[ravensfan2001]

"There are a lot of wins in front of us " .... Yeah because if the first six games showed us anything it's the fact we have a lot of heart and we can compete. Only problem is though we can't WIN!!! I think Harbaugh doesn't understand that the reason Biscotti has kept him as his head coach is because he used to WIN it wasn't the way he handled adversity, there are a lot of coaches who don't have a job the handle adversity great... But they didn't WIN!!! And this whole losing makes me motivated is crap I guess he doesn't know we have lost 5 games!!! I'm glad losing motivates you though who cares what the fans think it's not like we care right?

Yup, u said it all

[Minionhunter]

They must fix Joe too. 1. Get his footwork right he is throwing off his back foot all this season, missing is Gary's system of footwork "we teach footwork" he said last year. 2. Teach Joe a lookoff and pump fake. He is still staring down his receivers. If the qb whisperer can't teach those things, get an assistant who can. Joe's qb coach needs to be fired too. Awful that they are letting this happen.

[curtis0360]

Oh come on john, you need to see the same thing you saw with Cam Cameron. Right now we are on the side of the highway trying to get on the entrance. And we simply can't, seriously we need a major change AND NOW, if we have any hope of salvaging the season.

[ellicottraven]

Nobody's scoffing at you or the team John. Making comments like that will give them ample cause to do just that.

[BBoogieMan]

Don't fight....E-X-E-C-U-T-E !!!!!

[ellicottraven]

We'll keep fighting? LMAO. Spare me w/ that hot air. The ravens wouldn't even hustle to the line to spike the damn ball late in the 4th. What fight? This team has already quit.

That was the ultimate dagger in the fans' collective hearts! That saunter led by Flacco to the line of scrimmage to spike the ball told me exactly what you correctly surmised. It was like coming back to the sidelines in practice - that saunter to save precious seconds to win the game! That was disrespectful towards every Ravens fan in my view.

[BBoogieMan]

Watching the Pattys - Colts game now and it's refreshing to see press coverage executed and it's positive effect. Darth Belichick's crew does it (almost legally mauling receivers w/i 5 yds) to perfection. Didn't Pees come from NE? Did he not learn anything from the Sith master?

[Dfence4champs2052]

It's a shame John spends more time on his speeches than his time management, in-game adjustments and lighting fires under his subpar coordinators butts! Heart of lions?????? This group is pathetic. Somehow the collective football IQ of this organization went from playoff/SB contender to Cleveland Browns........how sway?

[Baller MD]

How did those great "three improvements to win" you named last week work out Harbs?

Ravens will not win another game until after the bye. Jacksonville if their lucky.

[Baller MD]

And exactly who are we putting out there in Flacco's place?  Schaub?  No thanks!  Flacco has digressed this year but at least in all our losses we were in it up to the end.  Put Schaub in and we'll start getting blow out losses with no chance for a 4th quarter comeback.

Would explain a lot of what's going on. Bears cross your mind?
