The Coordinators - Breakdown of the Ravens Scheme

[GreatWhiteNorthRaven]

One of my big takeaways on the air yard issue:

This has been an issue for multiple weeks. In fact, the last time Lamar completed a pass with 20+ air yards was from Q4, 8:13 of the Kansas City game.

Since the KC game, Lamar has gone 0/7 on passes with 20+ air yards. The attempts have been there, but the completions haven’t.

This was the bread and butter in the first two weeks. The Ravens were running the ball and short passes that set up the deep ball. As mentioned last week, defenses have adjusted.

I would argue the Ravens adjusted back to that though this week, finally (again, because I assume Roman read last week’s article). If teams want to sell out to take away the deep ball and it opens up these easy looks, then the Ravens need to continue to take them. They were easy pitch and catches and they opened up YAC opportunities.

For example, the Ravens took advantage with the number of crossing routes and drag routes. On drag routes, for example, Jackson went 3/3 for 36 yards with 33 YAC.

If they continue to execute them then defenses will have to adjust and that’s when you hit them over the top.

This all just goes to show what a chess match this sport can be. Luckily, this game serves as an example of how Roman and Jackson are starting to take control of their chess pieces.

Nice write ups you all explain yourselves very well. That Stanley block was nasty he’s an athlete.

Thanks man!

Translating the numbers and videos into a narrative has been a challenge. A lot of trial and error but we're hitting our stride.

So kind of like Lamar and Roman in the chess match
