Lmfao what? I mean I think their conversation was pretty stupid, but come on dude. Reported to who? Quit acting like you’re all high and mighty and somehow a part of the organization. Do us all a favor and gtfo

Yeah he’s going to totally run a public forum that is no way affiliated with the organization ownership wise out of proportion.
Two words to him.... fuck off. And tell Ozzie to actually pick Nelson in the draft

It comes down to execution. At the end of the day, as fun as it is to blame the coaches, a lot of it is on the players. However you want to break it down, someone was out of place on the game winning touchdown. Players have to execute.
But at the same time quit saying Harbaugh had nothing to do with us having a great run from 08-12. Coach BB couldn’t do it before him, so obviously harbaugh did something right.

Hahaha “yeah fuck you and your nonsense. But p.s. tell Ozzie to pick Nelson”

I would take Flacco’s comment with a grain of salt. He’s a professional. He’s not going to throw one of his coaches under the bus. I’m not going to expect anything until Harbaugh says something.

I don't mind keeping Marty. The way I say it, this coming season is do or die for Harbs. If we don't make the playoffs, he has to go, so might as well keep the OC he's stuck by rather than bring in someone that'll possibly only be around for a year. And Marty did show some improvement. His situational playcalling can be fucking awful at times, but I liked how aggressive he and Joe got as the season went on. Plus and seems like Marty and Roman can work as a team to have a functioning offense.
Oddly enough, I wanted Pees gone more than Marty. Maybe now we can stop seeing Flacco give us a late lead only for the defense to give up a touchdown right away.

The sting from that devastating, embarrassing, (whatever other fitting adjectives you want to use) loss still hasn’t gone away, so ranting my frustrations might help a little bit. This is my “State of the Ravens “ post, if you will. From a team that experienced 5 straight playoff appearances with at least one playoff win, capped off by that euphoric moment in NOLA, the fact of the matter is simple, the post-super bowl XLVII era has been anything but. We have seen our fair share of Draft misses, most notably headlined by Matt Elam, Arthur Brown, Sergio Kindle(bad luck), Terrence Cody, and most recently Breshad Perriman, Maxx Williams and Kamalei Correa. We’ve seen a handful of bad coordinator hires, most notably the revolving door that is the offensive coordinator position. There have been countless head scratching, bonehead in-game coaching decisions. Throw in the PR disasters, whether it be the Ray Rice elevator incident or the display in London this season, add all of those factors up, and you have a team that has been unable to escape the finality of being a mediocre football team. To blame one person is irrational. From top to bottom, this organization is at a crossroads. Is Bisciotti capable of identifying the problem? Last off season this team decided to attack their shortcomings by sticking with continuity in the coaching staff, attempting to recreate an elite defense, while also neglecting to address the offensive side of the ball. 13 of the Ravens last 17 day 1 and 2 picks, I believe, have been used to try and bolster the defense. Clearly that formula has lead to the familiar fate that is falling short of the post season. I’m rooting for this team to get it figured out, because I do love this team and have been emotionally invested in them for as long as I can remember. Time will tell, but change is inevitable and necessary to try and fix this broken system.

Everything you just said is literally almost word for word the mentality going into last off season. The plan for Harbaugh to live and die by his guys with a 1 year, put up or shut up season, with the finality being the same result this season. At some point you have to say enough is enough before sticking with what you have becomes insanity. Don’t let the 2nd half offensive statistics fool you, this offense benefited from the leagues #1 defense in takeaways, setting up great field position and easy opportunities to score. The all too familiar Fake FB dive, HB toss play on 4th and 3 was one of the worst calls I’ve ever seen from an NFL coordinator. Alex Collins just so happened to bail Mornhinweg out.

You're right. I just read an article saying
He's their senior personnel advisor, he and his wife kept their Denver home after he resigned, and two of his sons work for the Broncos. I can't expect him to come to Baltimore under those circumstances. Now who am I going to daydream about?
Could have been possible they asked Weddle to take the deep middle drop and he got caught up in the tight end and shirked off Boyd up the seam.

Yeah Billick knew how to call plays. Hair ball is useless coaching offense and defense. Where is his presence now?? He has a franchise QB something Billick didn't. Yet missed the playoffs 3 yrs in a row. And if not 4 Kubiak helping Flacco to his best season as a pro and career year from the running back. And best ravens offense ever. The Ravens would be going through a 5 yr playoff drought. Something else Billick never accomplished. Hair ball is a butt kisser and a yes man to management. He praises managements every move. Billick often clashed with management.lol

Ricky Proehl could be a great offensive coordinator. He played and learned under Vermeil and Martz
I know people want to bitch about Marty but you can't argue he's been among the reasons for Flacco playing his best ball in the last 3 years. I have no qualms letting him continue his work with more weapons next year. Flacco has seen enough changes at OC, why change when suddenly it starts working?

Only way that I see Marty getting replaced is if we can lure Kubiak back. That being said, Harbaugh is on his last legs, at this point, so if he can find another suitable replacement then I could see him making a change. At the very least, Marty is going to be on a short leash going forward.
I also wouldn't mind making Roman OC. Much of Marty's "success" this year can be attributed to the improved run game which Roman is responsible for anyway.
