Ravens Ring of Honor
1 playoff win in 4/5 years with a franchise qb on a rookie contract isn't good enough.
pure averages should mean it's the other way around lol

For me it seems like that has been going downhill over the years. We went from a team that fought really hard and over achieved in the biggest games to faltering in big games and collapsing when we need someone to step up.

I don't even know if I should laugh or cry at this.

For years, I maintained that the Ravens are not allowed to enjoy long-term offensive prosperity. I don't know how long it has to continue, but this is straight up punishment for having the audacity to defy the football gods like the 2019 season.
It sure would help if that same quarterback on a rookie contract was able to finish the season for the past two years. The last time LJ played in the playoffs in 2020 he wasn't even able to finish the game against The Bills cause he sustained a concussion which was a pretty winnable game if he was able to finish. This not a shot at LJ but The Ravens simply have not been able to build momentum off their first win in the playoffs cause LJ hasn't been available down the stretch of the season.
Regardless of that it's very understandable that the coaching staff still take blame and the fingers are pointed at them more than anyone.

After last season, I said to give Roman one more chance with an improved OL, fully healthy Bateman, Hollywood, Andrews, and our running game. Obviously, Hollywood getting traded didn't help, but it helped us get Linderbaum. Bateman goes down in week 4 and whatever. Clearly, Roman has to go. Nobody in their right mind can defend him.

DeMeco Ryans, the DC for the 49ers is someone I would love to bring in. He's been great at adjusting his game plans to who he has available and who he's facing, and it'd be great if he brought some of their offensive staff with him.
Ben Johnson, the Detroit Lions' OC, also comes across as someone who could potentially get the most out of his players. And Frank Reich could potentially be good here.

Inexcusable time mismanagement with season on the line.
And I don't care that OC has an autonomy on play calling. Game after game after game.... the best offensive player is not on the field in the red zone. Serious coach just doesn't allow shit like that.

I'm sick of the Bengals starting to think that they are our equals and better in this division man. Sick of'em!
I mean they are

JK in his presser said he talked to people on the sidelines about not being out there. And well.... he clearly didn't make it out there. Had to be Roman not listening. Really confusing. He was underused in 20. Missed 21. Underused here at the end in 22. And he's pissed. Rightfully so. Roman is not the answer.
