Re: Run defenses the Ravens have faced
I think you have a solid point. Theyre not bad against the run for obvious reasons. outside of Denver, who i think is just scoring so damn much its forcing teams to be pass happy and abandon the run completely, the other two boast 2 of the leagues better defenses across the board. I think sunday will be more telling of where were at if only because our OL has had some time to gel and its obviously a focal point that Harbs is trying to address.

Re: Run defenses the Ravens have faced
I've seen elements of ZBS for the past 3 years or so, but we discussed in another thread that it seems to have changed this year. They're not running much outside ZB like they were last year or two.
Ultimately it comes down to winning the 1 - 1 battles, which many times they are not.

Re: Run defenses the Ravens have faced
Teams change year-to-year, but in the interest of getting a larger sample set, here are last year's run D rankings:
1: Denver
7: Cleveland
9: Houston
30: Buffalo
And in terms of yards per rush:
1: Denver
2: Cleveland
5: Houston
22: Buffalo"Chin up, chest out."

Re: Run defenses the Ravens have faced
I actually think this is the game where the running game opens up the post and fly patterns. Small sample but they seem to play man on those routes and they can be beaten.
