 You two team keep it clean sit down. It's gonna be a little while What's going on? Now? They sing Raven here with another video and in this video. We need to have ourselves a little meeting We need to have a Ravens a a meeting and when I say a a I'm not referring to alcoholics anonymous I am referring to two things that we need to see the Ravens change moving forward to the biggest changes we need to see moving forward with this team and that is accountability and adjustments and In this video, we will speak about every coach every coordinator and even every player That I feel could step up and it would be very beneficial to the Ravens as a franchise as a team and For their success moving forward now. The first is John Harbaugh I don't want anybody to get anything misconstrued or misunderstood when it comes to the way that I feel about John Harbaugh Respect John Harbaugh love John Harbaugh for what he's done for this team He gets the guys to fight he gets the guys to really give it there all this team one thing You could say a lot of things about John Harbaugh, but one thing that you can never ever say is That the team quit on Harbaugh You can never say that no matter how many people are hurt no matter how many people are out No matter what the situation is they never quit on John Harbaugh And again, we all know that he is the ultimate players coach the players love John Harbaugh They love playing for him and you rarely rarely rarely really there's only been like two people that when they leave They like oh, I ain't like playing for him. I don't like that guy. We had our riff this and that But anyway with John Harbaugh Accountability and adjustment. How does that apply to him? How can he get better at that? Well, in my opinion it starts with the hiring process With John Harbaugh and just really with the Ravens team period I've been saying it for a while now that the philosophy it has to be Changed it has to be adjusted it has to be Different and that just has to be their approach to so many different things when it comes to this Ravens team One of those is John Harbaugh with the hiring. No John Harbaugh is responsible Usually responsible nine times out of ten for the hiring of the offensive coordinators now If John Harbaugh for whenever the Ravens make their next move at offensive coordinator I do not anticipate it being this offseason. It's not gonna be this offseason Greg Roman isn't going anywhere That's fine. Okay. Well John Harbaugh. You need to hold both your coordinators more Accountable for their actions. You have to you need to adjust your thinking when it comes to that We know John Harbaugh. He's like a Greg Roman. You do you I'll step back. Hey wink. Martindale. You do you I'll step back That's not working. It's not working John Harbaugh as the leader as the head coach. He needs to realize like hey Greg Roman. What you're doing here This is not working. Hey, look what we what we're doing here. This was working. Let's stick with this. Hey wink I love what you did here, but when you did this, it's just not good for it for this game right now It's not good going against his team. We need to change this up. We need to fix this So John Harbaugh I feel like he needs to adjust when it comes to how he holds his guys accountable and then himself One big adjustment with him would be in the whole the hiring process itself Moving forward whatever happens with Greg Roman or wink moving forward Even after this season if John Harbaugh is still here Then the way that he goes about the hiring process has to be adjusted He needs to do better Really getting the best man for the job and not getting a friend not getting an old buddy Not getting an old co-worker not getting the family member. No, he needs to get the best man for the job and This is especially When it comes to offensive coordinator because yeah, usually with defensive coordinator The Ravens they do a lot of promoting from within because that's where we came from wink I believe was the Ravens. He used to be their linebackers coach but it would be wise of Harbaugh to just Hire the best man for the job and I know a lot of people talk about oh Harbaugh He doesn't hire anybody. That's a threat to his job now I wouldn't expect somebody to do that. Like hey, let me bring you on even though I know you could take my job, but I've spoke to leaders before to managers and one of the things that they do one thing that makes a great manager is Somebody that is willing to hire somebody that they could see replace them in the future and We know that Harbaugh for everybody that he brings on they are not people that he could see replace him in the future and The one thing about it is and it's not even like Harbaugh would necessarily be replaced by these guys because we've seen enough times when Harbaugh will bring somebody on it and they'll go somewhere else They'll go be a coordinator somewhere else. They may be go back to the college. They may go back to work with Jim But we we need to see people who are ascending and not descending Harbaugh also needs to be held accountable himself We look at this season And we look at again after the Super Bowl in the Super Bowl ultimate level of success It was amazing those five years. I says Ravens fans. We were on top of the world You couldn't tell us nothing nothing Playoffs playoff wins AFC championships a lot of heartbreak But in that five-year period in that fifth year it ended the best way that it could possibly end Holding that Lombardi trophy and that was amazing amazing That was also what nine years ago Not that a team is gonna win a Super Bowl every two three years minus the Patriots Or Brady period but not that a team besides them is gonna win a Super Bowl every single year Not even every four years even every five years But you do want to see the team's best foot put forward and we have had some teams That can compete. We've had some teams that could get the job done. We've had it What we had it in 2014? We had it in 2019 of course We had it in 2020 Now this year, of course, everybody got hurt we understand that but whenever I speak about John Harbaugh It's not just about this year. And I feel like that's where so many people get it misunderstood They think oh man engraving when he talks about John Harbaugh. Oh, he's not he's not accounting all the injuries that we had Did he forget about the injuries? Did he forget we had everybody hurt? It's not about that my friends. It's about the way that I feel about this team Overall moving forward It's not about back then. It's about moving forward now Said it plenty of times Harbaugh in order for this team to really have the best success in my opinion I'm all doesn't even have to be fired. He doesn't have to be but the philosophies have to change They have to adapt they have to adjust To their situation they have to adjust to the league they have to and I feel like if if Harbaugh can make that adjustment that would be a huge change on his part really on everybody's part All right, cool. But if he can't make that adjustment Then I feel like the Ravens. Okay. Well next man up and it doesn't just apply to players It would apply to the coach as well So Harbaugh again, he's still on the light He's on the last year of his contract. There hasn't been any extension announced it as of right now today January 19th, 2022 Yeah, we haven't heard of any extension and the extension talks nothing like that So Harbaugh got a lot to prove right now and again actions speak louder than words You know the Ravens. They absolutely adore Harbaugh the staff the players all that not can understand why but Actions him still on being on the last year of his deal. That says a lot more than any words that they could say about him could Because that shows like all right. Hey time is time is up. This is it. What you gonna do? That's why I really believe that they are going to let him play this thing out on the last year of his deal And see what stuff is looking like Because as much as a lot of fans may not want to say it as much as a lot of fans may not want to see it I do feel like the Ravens the front office. They are looking at John Harbaugh. They sure are and They are thinking about the long-term future. He's been here for a long time Long time, but the Ravens are certainly thinking about the future. There is no way that they aren't Especially when you got somebody like and it's not just a random player on the last year of his deal So, no, this is your head coach who has been here since 2008 He been here for a long time man a long time So we'll see what happens with that and like I said before Harbaugh is the ultimate players coach. They love them love love love love Harbaugh the players love Harbaugh but he is also not the end all be all he is not the only coach in the world and I think I know in a lot of times and people say, oh man Harbaugh He'd know what who's gonna be better than Harbaugh. Well, who was gonna be better than Billik? Huh? Who's gonna be better than a marching bro? Who's gonna be better than those guys Ravens have only had three head coaches in Their existence in their entirety they've had three head coaches and the last two that they picked Ended up getting them Super Bowls. So I would think in the hiring process I would think that the Ravens they got that down pat You would think that right you would think that when they move on from one coach It's great when they move on from a coach They end up getting a Super Bowl then they went up when they moved on from another coach They end up getting a Super Bowl and one of the things that the the coaches Billik and um Harbaugh had in common was that they inherited some really good players Some generational talents and on top of that they also drafted some really good guys too So if the Ravens were to move on from John Harbaugh, I feel like they would be just fine Do they have to move on from Harbaugh to get a philosophy change? We'll see this year We'll see this year because again Everything's on the line right now for John Everything so I would hope That he would make the necessary adjustments and also hold himself accountable A lot more moving forward Next Greg Roman Greg Roman is one Oh boy, Greg Roman are so many Ravens fans And actually it's a lot of Ravens fans on the fence on both sides of the fence Someone like a man Greg Roman needs to go. Someone like no no no Greg Roman needs to stay Greg Roman accountability and adjustments One of the biggest adjustments that he can make Is inside the red zone situational play calling So many times and even not even just situational play calling but just play calling in general But definitely situational play calling. There's something that we've been talking about so much So I know a lot of y'all have heard it before But inside the 20 When it's crunch time when everything's on the line It seems as if that's when Greg Roman just he comes apart And and it's like with um with Greg Roman too in the biggest of the big situations It's like whoa, wait a minute. What what's going on? Whether it's playoff time Uh, sometimes with these some of these two-point conversions now the one versus Steelers That was a nice one. That was a great play call But that just execution left. I don't know if it was planned that they were going to leave tj watt unblocked Um, but that just was executed sloppily But the one there was the one uh the the rollout The rollout eliminated the whole left side of the field and focusing in on mark angels The rollout and and it's it's just it is that it's the situational play calling It's it can be just the the use of players or the lack of use of players We see so many times when a player will be hot And and it's not all on Greg Roman because the quarterback, they still got to throw that person a ball Offensive line still got a block Why receivers got to catch tight ends and etc players got to do their part too and we'll talk about them in a little minute but A lot of times with the play calling In this the situational play calling and just the the lack of being in the flow of the game So many times we've seen where it's like, all right. Oh this defense their weakness is this But Greg Roman will do something that's opposite Even when the defense has a weakness they Ravens may attack it and Ravens may be doing a good job of attacking it for a while Then Greg Roman will go do something else and it's like what what is going on? I just I don't get it Why What what is what is the problem? What's not clicking? I don't understand So Greg Roman needs to hold himself more accountable and realize like hey Okay, I tried this. It's not working If my plan a is not working. All right. I gotta have a plan B Because that's another thing a lot of times it seems as if with Ravens if their original plan ain't working Then it's like oh What do we do from here? So Ravens have to make better adjustments and they need to make earlier adjustments Oh, man, we saw that so much this season, especially the beginning of the year Where we saw like they have to do a better job of adjusting to the situation Helping out their quarterbacks and whether that was Lamar whether it was Tyler Huntley Whoever it may be they got to get better at adjusting to the situation a lot earlier We saw it this year Where the Ravens where the offense will be struggling the offensive line is struggling. Why is it that Greg Roman been our offensive coordinator since 2019 19 So that's 2019 2020 2021 three years Same starting quarterback A lot of offensive line has changed and some players have changed in and out But 2019 why do we not have a screen game? Why can't we still not run screens? Why? What is that? And this is with a good or bad offensive line. It's just something that we don't do Where are the and that's that can be so much simplicity Sometimes I feel like Greg Roman almost over things the situation so many times There can be success with simplicity, but the Ravens they they don't do that. Greg Roman doesn't do that He spoke this off season. He said it He said it We are going to have Lamar Jackson under center a lot more We got a lot of plays for Lamar Jackson under center Under center is not the pistol. Under center is not shotgun Under center is directly under the center Lamar taking a snap from underneath Bradley Boseman's behind That's under center What do we see that like three or four times? Maybe You you can't just talk your talk and another thing. This is why he got to hold himself accountable You can't just talk the talk but not back it up. Oh man, we we got a lot of plays in the vault We got a whole lot of plays in the vault Where were they? I remember one maybe two because was the flea flicker after the vault coming or before I think it might have been before but regardless. I remember so so two two vault plays Because there was the one that I loved and I never saw it again Never saw it again. There was the one that I love where they faked it. They faked a little end around to devon duver name um So he came he came over lamar Act like he put in his chest then took it out So he faked it to him and then davante freeman was here and he handed it off to davante freeman And the design of it was just so beautiful. It was lovely. Never saw it again Never saw it again ever So it's like You you got to hold yourself accountable to your what be a man of your word. Let your yes mean Yes now with wink Oh with wink And again, we know with him too just like with greg roman and john harbaugh. Yeah, a lot of guys were hurt We got to adjust to the situation, but with wink. He got to adjust to the situations a lot faster now Hold yourself accountable. Now. I think wink did hold itself accountable with his His comment before the season About sacks being overrated Now we know that wink scheme for some reason the sacks just don't get there We just don't get a bunch of sacks with guys underwing scheme Now I do have some things that I feel could change that and could help that could help wink in that manner But we'll talk about that in another video, but as far as wink Don martindale adjustments A lot of times this year. It was my biggest complaint that with wink We knew guys were hurt, but even when marlin humphrey was still in before a lot of guys even went out He was he had been getting toasted He had been struggling this year this year was definitely a down year for marlin humphrey He did make some plays, but he struggled a lot this year a lot more than usual And could it be because marcus peters wasn't on the other side? I think that had a whole lot to do with it But marlin humphrey he struggled Anthony avid he had some good games and he had some really bad games too But there there would be such a lack of adjustment To helping your guys out you will see these cornerbacks struggling and you will still continue to leave them on islands Ravens past defense was terrible this year. Yes, so many people were hurt that past defense was terrible But you know what's crazy. You know what just didn't make any sense to me at all Why did it look like and let me know if i'm wrong, please do Well, why did it look like the defense played better down the stretch when so many guys were out Anthony avid out marlin humphrey out obviously marcus peters out the sean elliott out Why did it look like a lot of times the defense played better down the stretch with so many guys being out Because wink finally finally made so many different adjustments He changed so much stuff down the stretch that we wish he would have done a lot earlier wink has to make quicker adjustments wink Is he a bad defensive coordinator? No, he's not a bad defensive coordinator, but again, he needs to be held accountable he has to be Because they've The and there have been times too when um and i feel for him in this case where the defense is doing a good job They are holding the teams out, but then it's on the offense because they don't be getting nothing going So the the defense will have been out there for forever and ever ever be holding it down Then at the very end it's okay. We can't do it anymore Then they have a collapse they have a late game collapse. They have a late game meltdown But then again, it is on you. That's on you That's on you as a defensive court. So he would have to be held accountable He would have to be And it's tough. It's these are some tough jobs being a head coach being a coordinator of an NFL football team. Oh, that's tough That's extremely tough So but these guys they they've had their positions and they've had their positions for a while because they haven't reached a level of success But these are just my opinions on how I feel like they can reach another level of success Now moving on Eric Dacosta Eric Dacosta, he's been the GM since what the 2019 season, I believe And overall he's had some great things that he's done and he had some things that he needs to improve on too Now the great things that he's done. I feel like he does a really good job of making this roster Um, he especially this year, even though we literally lost everybody But he has done a good job of making the roster now Well, I where I feel like he could make a few adjustments The biggest to me with Eric Dacosta is draft picks and It's not just a simple two word answer with draft picks. It's a lot deeper than that in my opinion Now it's a couple of things now His the the back end drafting it hasn't been so pretty The the depths the depth of his drafts It hasn't been so pretty so far the impact of his drafts Overall, it has not been pretty so far. There's been a lot more misses than hits but We know the Ravens. They love their draft picks. They covet draft picks They want all the draft if the Ravens could pick 32 times In each round they would if it was possible if they could trade with literally every single team in kid 32 picks for seven rounds. They would do it. They were because you know, they love them draft picks But my thing with that And we know Eric Dacosta is aggressive an aggressive gm. He tries But that's a thing right there. We always hear about tries now There have been some successions of course for Marcus Peters him trading for Marcus Peters And that was huge him trading for Kalaeus Campbell. That was huge him trading away care Vedvik So somebody actually him getting a draft pick for a kicker slash punter that we know he wasn't gonna keep Like how do you do that teams could just wait it out and be like, all right They about to cut him anyway, but for him to get a draft pick for him and he wasn't even gonna keep him. That's big That's huge but with all the uh the the trading we hear so much almost And usually when we hear about almost, I know a lot of teams Oh, well this this person the the team didn't want to trade them in the afc They were they didn't want this player to be in the conference Okay, but a lot of times too is that the Ravens they don't want to give up It's something that they don't want to give up and it's usually a draft pick It's usually the draft pick I feel like they're they're love for draft picks Sometimes it can be a little bit overrated and what I mean when I say that Is that and of course, you know, like with the draft The the more times you got to swing The more chances you get you get you get to hit The more swings you take the more opportunities you get for a home run and that is true That's the law of averages More the more attempts you take at something the more chance that you have at succeeding But How much real value is placed? on success for of these draft picks Because think about this Hollywood brown for example 2019 first round draft pick Patrick queen 2020 first round draft pick rashaar bateman and adafi away 2021 first round draft picks All of those guys saw significant time On the field and the Ravens were extra invested in them because of where they drafted them at They were first round picks Now again the more chances you have to swing The more chances that you could hit a home run But if say for instance you you you up to bat And it's like all right. It's it's the bottom of the ninth and your team y'all y'all already up and You you don't got nothing to swing for Are you gonna put that same effort into hitting the home run? No, you're not Because the game's already over and it's the same way that I feel with the draft the all these late draft picks that they always accumulate They're not as invested in them as they are these first round draft picks second round third round Whatever as the higher draft picks. So they're like, all right. We're technically swinging and we hope for something But okay, if it doesn't work out, uh, oh well This is why I feel like these all these draft picks can can be overrated a lot of times And we know if the ravens were to like move up in the draft, we know it's gonna cost more money But still it's also gonna cost you more of an investment You're gonna really be invested in this player and really do your best to get the most out of this player If this player is a a fifth round pick a sixth round pick a seventh round pick And that's no disrespect to anybody that's drafted There's no disrespect to them at all But the ravens are just simply not going to invest in those players as much as they would a higher pick guy And we know a lot of it has to do with money, but a lot has to do with draft status and whatnot, too So this is why I would I would rather instead of them taking 50 shots I would rather them take 25, but those 25 shots, they're really like trying to make them count That's what I I feel like they should do But that's just my opinion But yeah, besides that Eric Dacosta has been doing good But with the draft picks And the draft and all that and the just the the hoarding of the draft picks That's why I feel like he can make an adjustment Now players Lamar Jackson, we're not gonna go through every single player because it's just it's too many Lamar Jackson That's your franchise quarterback. Now for him Accountability, you know, he got accountability But he got to show it too and he's got to make the right adjustments on the field Now we know a lot has to do with play calling, but a lot has to do with execution as well What Lamar Jackson needs to do Better Is get rid of that ball Get rid of the ball And we know that and again a lot has to do with play calling, but we know that he can get rid of the ball We know he can And again the the best example of it would probably be that coach game. Oh boy, there were so many plays Where especially when when that up tempo start rolling Oh, yeah, that that's him all day that that's quick pace fast pace Lamar Jackson and that up tempo offense that no huddle Oh boy, that's that's him all day Greg roman we we try to tell you earlier, but he's like, oh no, we don't anyway Lamar Jackson has to do a better job of taking care of the ball He has to do a better job of uh making some better decisions Now we know he got so much trust for mark andrews and we can understand why And mark andrews got so much trust for him, you know, mark andrews look at that little 54 million dollar contract He's like oh Lamar. Thank you so much. I love you But it can't just be mark andrews and hollywood It can't the mar has to do a better job of seeing the field He has to because there have been opportunities that he's missed It's certainly were opportunities that he's missed and even when he had time Now when he hasn't had time for another offensive line, okay, I don't blame you but There have been times when he's he's just missed people like straight up. He's missed him And there have been times when he has made just some varied some bad decisions this year And with with Lamar Jackson, um, I would just love an adjustment for him to make Is to really get a firm grip Of this offense and I don't mean no You gotta know the playbook because he obviously does but really take control Of this off command this or let it be known like a This is what y'all need to and get with it and quick There's a lot that I don't know when it comes to getting the play calls in so i'm not sure if uh because that But that whole thing and that that's something else with greg roman With greg that that has gots to go It's got to go With all the the the play calls being so late. I don't know. I don't know what the process for that is I don't understand the entire algorithm when it comes to that But that is something that holds this team back and then now I got to go backwards Now I got to go backwards to to harbour again With the adjustments and the accountability For ravens. We see this Too often 12 men on the field. We see that too much That's that's got to go but we see that too many times, man 12 men on the field illegal shift illegal motion delay a game Wasted timeouts because they weren't about to get the playoff in time I don't know what's going on in practice Because when you practice something so many times repetition just helps the process go that much smoother But I just coaching has gots To get rid of these silly penalties that to where the ravens end up being their own worst enemy Because it's one thing if the play call is good and then the safe instance of the ball is dropped or it's overthrown or Get sacked or somebody fumbles or something That's one thing But if you can't even get the playoff If you fight in with yourself before the plays even started That's terrible, man That's terrible and we've seen that so many times They gots to fix that And then I go back to the defensive side of the ball The there seems to be I don't know if it's because the the scheme is just overly complicated or what? But you see so many plays when the players they they talking to each other They have these longer drawn out conversations Right before the ball is about to be snapped by the by the opposing team's offense And it's like a lot of guys just seem to not know what to do They just seem to be lost out there so many times like oh, what do I do? What do I go? What do I go? And to me it was seen as if they have they maybe have too much responsibility So they say do I go later? I go do I drop back to a blister? What what do I do? So that's on wink as well So it's just Those are the the the main things that I feel would just if the Ravens can adjust those things Like I said, we know that this coaching staff 9.9 times out of 10 I'm sure that they all gonna stay intact and it's okay. Cool. Well, let's get better Let's improve Hey, we know what we do great at and that's great, but we also know what we could get better at So let's do that. That's that's the biggest thing I want to see I want to see people hold themselves accountable and people be willing to make adjustments Being stubborn is not good for anybody No matter where you are no matter your whatever. It's never good for anybody So we know that these coaches they got these their certain characteristics about them They got the certain things that they do we get there and they've been doing it certain ways for years. Cool. We get that But a true leader Is somebody that's willing to make changes They're willing to adjust to the situation And they're willing to hold themselves accountable Team keep it clean. I love y'all. I appreciate y'all And just like I hope ravens won't be next year when it comes to being in the playoffs and even in the super bowl too I'm out
