 No it’s not. Ravens run a very different offense. If you haven’t faced it, you will struggle with it. Browns struggled mightily in the first half but figured it out enough in the 2nd. 

Ravens getting the charger was a horrible match up for them becuase the Chargers have faced them once alrwady. They have film on them and won’t be surprised by anything at all. 

This offense would have been nothing if it started week1 and the Division teams played the Chargers twice but the ravens never faced the Steelers and faced the browns and cincy once with this running scheme. If Jackson doesn’t improve his passing big time this will be a very quick offense

Every coach has faced it.  Probably when they were in high school.

We should have been selling out tomstop the run from the first snap.

I'd say we did sell out to top the run. We went to a 46 defense, which is notoriously great at stopping the run. Our problem was the lack of talent in that game. Our edge defenders are god awful and Schobert played straight up bad. Missed tackles and a lack of physicality hurt us in that game.

That being said, I don't like Gregg's defensive scheme. I love his personality and don't mind keeping him (I actually would lean towards keeping the culture the exact same), but I find his game plans to be pretty bad. Moreso last year than this year, but still, we got outschemed quite a bit this season.

Yeah, it usually works well, but it didn’t and he stuck with it far too long. 

Get in a goal line defense for all I care, make that dude beat you with his arm.

I don’t like either tbh.  Yellers don’t do much for me, neither does false badassery.

The Chargers have been playing Safeties at LB most of the game 

 

I imagine that is something Jabrill and Kindred could both do when we play the Ravens

This is the defense I want us to run. I think it’s the next trend with these spread offenses and qbs who run.

Yeah, I'm not worried about Jackson. Dude can only hit a WR if they're wide open (and even then he sometimes misses them). Only reason they made a comeback in the fourth was because of LA's penalties and them playing a soft, prevent defense. One big pass came from Derwin James going for the INT instead of covering the receiver, and the other was the Crabtree touchdown when he was pretty much wide open.

Unless Jackson drastically improves as a passer, he'll never be very good.

I'm sad that Baltimore will be keeping Harbaugh, though. He's a really solid head coach.

Hopefully Harbaugh forces his way out.
