The Ravens organization is stuck in the past.

Baltimore is the only organization that gets a Super Bowl MVP Caliber QB and, rather than use the majority of their resources to build an offensive system around him and try to make him the most deadly weapon in the game, stubbornly continues to put more resources in the rush offense and the defense. Yet, they wonder why the offense continues to struggle.

So many plays today I see Gino and AQ literally not blocking ANYONE. Okay AQ should have been a back up and he shouldn't be playing. But on the flip side so many good teams have lost offensive linemen and kept it together. Our contingency plan was exposed this season because frankly we don't have one.

Yay we have Suggs and Ngata and this defensive player and that defensive player. NE with a rag tag bunch of defenders plus some key guys (Jones, Hightower) make our offense look archaic.

Talk about beating a dead horse.......LOL

The AC has to go. Period.

What part of, "It's a Quarterback driven league", do they not understand. You know the best way to make the playoffs consistently? Let your QB take advantage of the crappy defenses during the regular season, pad the team record and get in easier than the Ravens seem to make it.

We need a new OC bottom line, not a retread from the NFL but a young hot college coach who can energize the offense. Caldwell is not very good. LAst year during the playoffs when he wanted the job he was serviceable but know ..no so much

That's what people are figuring out. JOE MONTANA TYPE RUN. Without that, they don't have a Super Bowl Championship. Yet, that is used to declare that the system is working. Joe's ridiculous ability to convert second and long, and third and long, is an indictment of his superior skill, which isn't being fully taken advantage of, not the system.

It would be one thing if we were talking about how Joe has all day to throw. Or how he constantly has open WRs. Or how he constantly has WRs bailing him out of bad throws. Or if we even remotely discussed those things consistently. Then, I could agree that the system is a success. However, Greg Cosell, Ron Jaworski, they've both talked about how this system has put so much strain on Joe to make pinpoint throws, compared to other systems (WC variation in New England, WC with vertical elements in Green Bay, Quick passing system in Denver), where QBs have more easier throws at their disposal.
