we can have all the coaches in the world but it wont make a difference if ozzie keeps drafting trash

Exactly

I guess CJ, B.Williams, Timmy, KO, Wagner, Juice, Orr, A.Lewis, Judon, Dixon, Young etc... are old trash

So is Marty's comment about being a team player a backhanded comment of some type towards Juan and Washington? Offensively, they certainly performed like there were philosophical and tension issues amongst that staff the past few seasons. Welcome aboard Roman!

Regardless of how anyone here feels about how the new coaching staff is panning out, remember, the biggest complaint this year was about our coaches. They are bringing in new guys and trying to improve on last year as we have begged them to do. As far as hiring "friends", the NFL is a small world with a small pool of people to work with. You want guys with NFL experience and a proven track record and I believe we're bringing in "Smarts" and "fresh eyes" into our coaching staff and also remember, the main bosses are still in place in Harbs, Ozzie, Pees and Mornhinweg . We keep continuity where we need it and added a few new faces to stir things up. We now have 2, Offensive coaches on board.
I seriously don't know how anyone can blast our new hires before anyone even see's one minute of what they can do here. This is a team game and our team just got better IMHO.
For some of you, think of it this way, Biscotti wants to win as much as the rest of us do and I'm sure they will do everything in their power to do so so, don't sweat the small stuff!
If hiring Roman is the worst thing that happens to you this year, consider yourself very lucky.

Well said. Who care if Harbs is only hiring friends. He is the man in charge and his job is to make the team better. It is about who you trust, who believe to the same mentality as you do. As fans our job is to root for the team, support them and enjoy the wins. When It come to building the team, let leave that to Ozzie and Harbs. They had us SB and a lot of wins. So they will do their best to get us win a SB again. Last year there was pressure on Ozzie about drafting and look how he responded, 2016 draft.
For the fans who are hoping or calling for a bad 2017 season, maybe you should find another team, cause you are not a raven diehard fan.

Hopefully, having the same OC two years in a row will help the O-line. Now, they don't have to focus on learning new terminology, blocking schemes, etc. Surprised how often everyone talks about the effects on a QB having to learn a new system & terminology but nobody talks about the O-line having to do the same. Blocking assignments are every bit as complicated as WR progressions.

The fact that Roman sees Rex Ryan as a "buffoon" of a head coach tells me that he at least has some sense.....

The blocking schemes will be the same. I'm sure because I"ve played higher levels of football! HAHAHAHAHAHA

A go route and a dig route is the same in every system, a counter run and a draw are the same in every system.....So according to you, troll, a different OC don't mean a thing, right? Same passes. Same runs. Same throws. Same blocking. Why does an offense need to learn a new system? SMH
