C.Biscuit97 Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 That would be a massive mistake. They should sooner get rid of Ozzie and Flacco. If they got rid of Ozzie, I would fire Bean in a second for him.
HappyDays Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 If they got rid of Ozzie, I would fire Bean in a second for him. I'm not saying they should fire Ozzie, just that he's more to blame for the problems there than Harbaugh. If they're trying to make a drastic change it should start with him. The talent on the team just isn't all that good right now, in no small part because his last few drafts have been subpar. The Flacco contract is also a big reason so he would be my next choice if we're playing the blame game. Â More realistically they should probably focus on trying to find Flacco's replacement while keeping everyone else on board. That's what I would do anyways.

They also been really good for a decade and some of their players are just getting old and Flacco isn't an elite qb to make up the difference. Â I still believe Newsome is one of the best talent evaluators in football.
Stank_Nasty Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Â teams lose players. sometimes that happens. it's not all on flacco. it's the most important position and to have the consistency at that spot is worth every penny of his deal. he's been consistent alright.... consistently middling and underwhelming. Â did anyone actually think that was a good deal back when it happened? hell, i even think ozzie was wincing at the thought of it when it was getting done. like "ah crap, this guy just messed around and got us a title. now we gotta pay him"... excluding a 4 game stretch in 2012 the guy has been average to slightly above for his whole career. downright bad at points.
BringBackOrton Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) Roman would probably shoot himself if he got handicapped to another one read mobile QB. Â All they do is get him fired and scapegoated. Edited July 27, 2017 by jmc12290

Â I still believe Newsome is one of the best talent evaluators in football. They haven't been the same since Tyrod left... Â No but really, Flacco's post SB-run contract hurt their ability to retain key pieces as well.
CanadianFan Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Don't begrudge or question the guy retiring, but kinda a Richard move so close to camp though no? Â He did so due to the CTE study. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/194836-cte-in-nearly-90-percent-of-football-players/?p=4441722
IDBillzFan Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017   Hmmm...  @RapSheet #Ravens coach John Harbaugh told reporters he's been in contact with Colin Kaepernick this summer. There is interest. Depends what Kap wants   This is interesting. Given how the NFL has been so brutally desperate to get Kap signed somewhere, the Ravens better come up with a damn good reason if they don't ink him.

Â Seems like just the opposite to me with no team wanting to deal with the associated distraction that he brings.
IDBillzFan Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Â Seems like just the opposite to me with no team wanting to deal with the associated distraction that he brings. Â I was referencing the countless articles on NFL.com. It seems like every other week there is a new article about him: what he still brings, who should look at him, why aren't teams looking at him, he can win it all!! Â Funny how you don't see those articles about RGIII, and Kap is every bit the crappy quarterback that RGIII is.

Â Funny how you don't see those articles about RGIII, and Kap is every bit the crappy quarterback that RGIII is. RG3 threw 2 tds and 3 INTs last year and gets hurt every game. CK threw 16 tds and 4 INTs last year. But yeah, they are exactly the same.
GunnerBill Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) Word here in Baltimore is that Harbaugh's gone with another playoff miss. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Â If that happens the Bills should speak to him say "take a year off, rest, recharge and we will make you the highest paid Head Coach in the league in 2019." Â I'm only semi serious... I do like the McDermott hire.... but I love John Harbaugh. I think he is a brilliant, brilliant, brilliant football coach. Edited July 27, 2017 by GunnerBill

Rico Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 That would be a massive mistake. They should sooner get rid of Ozzie and Flacco. I like Harbaugh a lot, but this is his 10th year as HC of the Ravens, and that's a long time. A fresh start may end up being best for everyone.
GunnerBill Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 That would be a massive mistake. They should sooner get rid of Ozzie and Flacco. Â I think Ozzie deserves firing more than Harbaugh. He simply hasn't drafted well enough the last 5 or 6 years. I'd keep both of them though. 2015 was a 1 off with all the injuries... other than that their "bad" years are 8-8.

cba fan Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Ravens window has closed. They will stumble along and try to regain old glory, but at the end of the day they need to think about rebuliding.
eball Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Ravens just signed an Arena League QB for another camp arm since they only currently have two healthy QBs.
