This team is lifeless. There are no stars. Flacco is an overpaid joke. Offense getting booed off the field at home again. It's the same old story. Our team has been in a downward spiral since the Super Bowl. There is no light here - they need to blow this up and start over. We aren't building around anything. There are no real game breakers on this team.

Please leave with those comments.

Your statement is false! everyone keeps saying we have been going down hill since 2012? Not true remember we went to the play off the next year. Remember the eligible receiver deal?

[araveninwaconc]

Keep Joe in a pistol or shotgun position with Juice by his side to chip edge rushers and he can slide out and catch a couple and do some damage in the open field! Just standing in the pocket doesn't work in this division look at Big Bens medical record broken nose courtesy of the Ravens and he still won! We're not loosing by much just a couple plays and we still mite be undefeated! Everyone learning from their mistakes and this mite be what is needed for a new jump start across the board! These are the weeks that's some teams build from and the Ravens haven't hit their stride yet but it's coming! WE THE BEST! GO RAVENS AND INDIANS! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Was going to commend you on your post but the Indians thang threw me? Orioles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[araveninwaconc]

All I know is Marty better bring balance. No more 50 passes a game, getting Joe killed. Balance run the damn ball 25-30x a game and throw it 35x like a successful Ravens offense looks like.

And We need to Get a pass Rush.. nobody is talking about it but 1 sack last 2 weeks. Activiate Judon, jesus... ww need more sacks, Pees send a couple more blitzes

sure ya right!

Theres ways to protect Joe besides just the blocking of the front line. Theres adding a tight end on the left to help block, theres moving the pocket, theres roll outs, with a good run game theres play action, quick hits, better out routes, all kinds of things Trestman ignored.

Well said Sami

Marty's success hinges on his o-line and what he can do to help them.

Unrealistic to expect dramatic changes quickly but if our o-line hadn't struggled the last 2 weeks, we could easily be 5-0

I saw instances where a screen would have stopped all that hard rushing by Washington but Mark just dosent have it but he acted as if he didnt care at all I am be bewildered ?

kubiak agreed to come here if he was able to bring his assistants with him. he brought his oc whom he moved to qb coach and i believe he brought the te and either the rb or wr coach. when he went to denver he took them all with him. when harbs loses a coord or position coach he rushes to replace them. maybe he needs to reevaluate some of these hires of his. o-line (juan castillo) has struggled before and after kubiak and the receivers (jim hostler, bobby engram) have always struggled with drops and seperation aside from sss and bolden. just something else to consider as a possible issue

You don't remember the Boldin drop in the endzone vs. Pitt to win that post season game do you?

You mean the one that was low and he went down to get it and went right through his arms...yeah I remember :(

We technically have a combined losing record after 2012...

[RavensBaltimore]

The manner in which we achieved the 3-0 start and taking into consideration the quality opposition we faced and even more so now that we lost back to back home games against garbage teams means the Ravens need to prepare 100% for 2017. 3-2 means nothing at this point. We could easily be 0-5. At the beginning of the season I predicted 7-9 and after the 3-0 start I bulged on my prediction and bumped them up to 8-8. Now 6-10 is the most likely scenario. Even if we would have started 5-0, I still had doubts this team was gonna win more than 8 games. What scares me the most is that this team is relatively healthy in comparison to the past 2 seasons. Wait till the injury bug hits and we are forced to play our dreadful backups. We are already getting a taste of it with the OL patch work, wait till the secondary gets decimated. We will become the All Pro Factory of the NFL once again.

Have you ever watched an NFL season before? You don't give up on a season when you're 3-2. Teams have had much worse 5 game stretches and won the SB. We lost 4 of 5 in 2012(won the SB), and we went 5 games in a row without scoring a TD in 2000(won the SB). On the other hand, because 2 out of the 5 teams we played have losing records, we should just give up on the whole season. That makes plenty of sense.

[Ravenous_Ravens]

Time will tell but IMHO that lack of execution was stemming from player frustration. It became more of a distraction as each went by. Not an excuse but when your unsure of the direction your headed, which anyone could clearly see, it starts to cast doubt and eat away at your confidence level to a degree. This is very much a sign that the system is not working when you lose buy in en mass.

I am very optimistic about Marty Mornignweg mostly because he is already familiar with team, coaches and players. He also benefited from getting to observe things from a bit of a distance from both a coach and player perspective. He figures to have the best position to create the kind of gelling this offense needs right now. I see less of a new playbook and more polishing/adding a wrinkle here and there being the game plan. The biggest difference will be the actual calling of plays during the game and I think Marty has pretty good poker face in comparison. Time to let the players do what they do best and stick with what is working.

Since when is a 4-1 team leading their division a "garbage team". The Raiders were the sexy pick to make a run at the Super Bowl this year. And the Skins were division winners and a play-off team last year before adding Josh Norman. Those were 2 close losses to very good football teams.

LOL I got Love for the Os! I Rock Ravens Indians and O's Caps over here in Cleveland! Got Love for the Terps also except when they play the Buckeyes of course! LETS GO!

[Purple Dawg 96]

Feel the NY road trip will actually be a good thing. They need change of scenery. Since our new OC was already on the coaching staff it's not a HUGE adjustment as it would be if we hired outside the Ravens Organization.

I'm surrounded by squeelers on Sundays over here all my buddies of course but I tell them the Ravens play better on the road and when they play at home they relax some what and depend on crowd noise etc and my buddies show me stats because I like facts but each time they went to the Super Bowls I was SO SO glad they had no home games and they won all those games!! Now look what happened at The Bank not one but two "L's" at home! I'm just sayin!

[Fastynart]

The Ravens needed to win those two games they just gave away. After their week off, they have games against a lot of tough teams. If they can't beat the likes of Oakland and the Redskins at home, I shudder to think what will happen to them against Pittsburgh, New England, Philadelphia, or Dallas. Even the up and down Bengals are going to be a challenge. Without decent blocking, Joe is vulnerable. He is more like Eli Manning than Peyton. He is inconsistent as heck, throwing an awesome pass then following it up with a real clunker. Just like with Ohr and the Blind Side baloney, the media makes Joe out to be more than what he is. With a good cast, he can flourish, but he cannot put the team on his back and carry them.

wow, not giving our defense any credit are you? Seems like they can keep us pretty much in any game, and if the offense can somehow get going, we will still be a better than average team. Look around the league, I really don't see any team out there who is really scary-dominant, I see a whole lot of teams floating along at basically .500. Yeah, you can claim Vikes, Pats, Squealers...none of them seem unbeatable from where i'm standing. Good, but not crushingly great like you usually see a few teams by this time of year.

Sounds like you had absolutely no faith in this team before the season even began. I don't see what indication that the Raven's would end up with a losing record, other than pure spite and/or mis-judging the talent level the Raven's possess. Which we do have some very talented players, they simply need to play better than they have so far this season. 6-10? Really? There's plenty to be optimistic about this team, thankfully most Raven's fan's have a more positive opinion and base said opinion in reality and not on doom and gloom fantasies. Haters gonna hate.

To be sincere I didnt have high hopes for the team before the season began like you very well said. I am not hating, I am being realistic. Ever since the SB victory and the departure of the "true leaders" the team hasn't shown much besides that 1 run with Kubes. I understand that injuries have plagued the team as of late but like you said they plague every team and with the so called "talent" we supposedly have we have not achieved much as of late. I am not sure if its the "talent's" fault, the coaching or what not.

I personally have never been a fan of Pees, I was very very excited when we hired Trestman. I thought he was the best we could get after loosing Kubes. How wrong was I. I always supported Harbs blindly because he was a good man, he knew how to keep his guys in order, make them fight until the end even if the season was out of hand and all that.... but he has been making too many boneheaded calls lately. I will never get over the fake FG in the SB even though we won the game. And this doesn't have to do with the horrendous fake FG against WAS, it has been going on for way too long, clock management, TO, when to throw the flag, zero in game adjustments... list goes on and on.

So after all that... I rather keep my expectations low in case we fall it doesn't hurt as much. If we happen to win then all the better.

On the other hand, because 2 out of the 5 teams we played have losing records, we should just give up on the whole season. That makes plenty of sense.

I understand that teams have had way worse 5 game stretches. I cannot compare this team to the 2012 team. This team does not play hungry. And with that alone they wont go anywhere. This defense will never be able to hold a SB contender to under 20points to where Justin Tucker alone could win us the game like in 2000. I am sure the 2000 Ravens defense would have never allowed 20pts to any team much less CLEVELAND in 7mins.

I didn't mean to say tank the season, but if serious changes are not made and quick the 2017 season will be the focus sooner rather than later.

We'll see what happens. Hopefully the release of Trestman will create a spark. Here's to a better offense...

[jsberryman]

A lot needs to change for this team to make the playoffs, these two home losses are bad giveaways. The NFL is heartless, when you only get 16 chances, you look at the schedule and mark down needed wins. We just let two of them slip by. Now you have to make them up elsewhere, given the schedule, the task is hard. We are at the point in the season where some top teams appear. The Steelers look much more talented plus Ben is playing like an "elite" QB. You start looking for signature wins now, I see the Dallas win over Cincy as one of those. New England is head and shoulders better than the Ravens. The Ravens it seems have gone ages since a signature win. I like Joe Flacco, however, he has never reached that QB level where the QB can pull out a win on a down or flat day by the team. To me he is very frustrating to watch especially when things are not going as planned on the field. This year's team is not doing anything "extremely" well. That bodes badly and would seem to lead to a 9-7, 8-8 or 7-9 season.

They got smoked by the Steelers, not a close game at all. Dallas and Philly look better than the Skins.

Ok ok I can give you the Raiders. Yeah yeah the sexy pick that spent a lot of money in FA and landed a lot of talent. Still we were winning and we let them score again late in the 4th qrt.

The Skins. Please ConquerorWorm do not make me laugh. I actually respect your comments on this site on a daily basis. The Skins are garbage. The represented the worst division in football last year in the playoffs and were one and done. At best they will finish 3rd in their division this year.

After the "unfortunate" loss against the Raiders I would have never thought we would produce such a stinker at home against such poor opposition.

I can only hope the problem was 100% Trestman and Stanley's bum foot because that should be a quick fix. But i am not very optimistic.

The Skins went toe to toe with Dallas and should have won that game. I'm not saying they're a great team but hardly a "garbage team". Jordan Reed, Matt Jones, DeSean Jackson, Pierre Garcon, Jamison Crowder, Josh Norman - those are playmakers. Browns, Bears, 49ers are what I would consider garbage teams....

[lnkevin]

Would someone with a connection to John Eisenberg please tell him to go back and look at the deep pass that he claims Breshad Perriman "dropped" early in the game and notice the defender yanking his right shoulder down at the last second before the ball came down?
My gripe with it is that this is the second or third article where he takes the time to specifically mention that play and yet, he is dead wrong about it being a dropped pass. Just because the referee did not call it a pass interference or defensive holding does not necessarily mean that he dropped it.
There are much more glaring problems with this offense than one particular "dropped" pass anyway. At least be accurate about it if you're going to jump on a guy for a particular play over and over again in your articles!

He was correct about Perriman. It was a drop. The ball went through between his hands. How do you call that? Though Perriman shows some upside, he is still pretty much playing like a rookie. Plus, he is soft like toilet paper and afraid falling as well as collision.

[RRRRRavens]

I guess there's a lot of things we can blame our poor offense on. But for me some of it looks like we just haven't practiced enough. We look like a ragged team that just got together for the first time. It makes me wonder what they did all summer to get ready for the season. All the drive ending penalties we are suffering seems to point to this. They should be executing like a well trained drill team and instead they are looking like a Saturday afternoon amateur pickup game. Funny how at the start of the season we were so concerned that the defense would fail but had confidence that the offense would carry us through. It has turned out to be just the opposite!

Hey, look on the bright side. We might be in line for another low numbered pick in the next draft in 2017.

[RRRRRavens]

I would like to know when this is going to fall on Harbaugh. Yes he has an offensive Coordinator BUT you do NOT Abdicate the task of running the offense to him, you DELEGATE, the difference being, you stay involved helping the OC achieve success. If I am the Head Coach, I am participating in the game plan, the plays we are going to run and if the team is going bad, I will set out exactly what I want from the segment that is under performing.

Harbaugh acts like he stands back and lets something fail and then throws the Coordinator under the BUS. I would not work for someone like that and I do not believe that is solid leadership characteristics....

Hate to point this out, Objective, but I don't think you're being "objective". Unless you are unusually better connected than the rest of us posters you don't know whether Harbs didn't do exactly what you are suggesting he didn't do.

Not sure if I agree on all of your football conclusions but you hit on a gem of an idea at the end. Management of expectations is one of the principles to follow for a happy life.

And that's not called delegating, that's called "micro-managing".

But RRRRRavens is right, you have no idea what goes on at the castle on a daily basis. Even worse is forming an opinion on someone's character based off what you read. That would be like me saying I would never hire a problem employee like you that makes assumptions and always wants to blame management - that type of employee is bad for business.

If that's the case, then Harbaugh should be gone! Which he will be shortly, cause they can't get rid of the real problem.

[Dorota]

Ravens would have won all their games, if they weren't making some of the mistakes they've been making. Mosley caught an INT, but then fumbled it just short of endzone, resulting in a touchback. Perriman didn't put both his feet down (though, from what I've read, a lot of it was on the defensive technique applied), Wallace made some drops, Aiken should have caught the ball a week ago. It would have been wins. Dot your I's and cross your T's and you're set. If Ravens keep getting penalties and dropping balls, it doesn't matter if Jesus is the OC.

Yes, the penalties. Penalties are killing us!

Hope we can get it together. That sure would be better than the ugliness that would take place on January 2nd if it doesn't.
