I like him. Too bad he didnt have anything left to bring to the table.

Well, that might not be true. I'd like to see him in the minors proving something outside of extended spring training. I don't know why, but I feel that he'd be better than Ubaldo. But we'll never know.

      Great OP and agree with what's been said. Today's game started with a lot of first pitch swings and outs. I guess that was the game plan but that drives me crazy. I quit watching. I just don't understand this team's approach to hitting. I admit to being old school but to me it's more than just the talent or lack there of. If all of a sudden, they can do a 180, it will be a miracle of the ages.

      2024 Week 2: Ravens vs Raiders

      Yep..and PQ last year when he said something to the effect that this can’t keep happening (said it after Colts game)..and then Kc last year saying they knew the Ravens would abandon their game plan. These are all direct shots at Harbaugh. There is no other way to say it. You can say some is also directed at Lamar as well but this isn’t just Lamar. It’s everything and most of that is on Harbs.

      FIX THE DANG HITTING!

      It’s hard to believe the coaching isn’t working. Overall, they have been an excellent offense with him here. They rate highly in traditional stats, statcast stats or advanced stats.    But you have a lot of bad players right now, a lot of good players playing bad and a lot of young guys still learning how to play. The injuries are killing things. Coaching can only do so much for sub 600 OPS guys.

      Great post.  You have summed up the lack of excitement perfectly.     Just a boring team to watch now.

      It's like Tomlin said, just stay close with the Ravens and they'll beat themselves in the 4th quarter.

      FIX THE DANG HITTING!

      You and I agree that Fuller's take is that the reason (or part of the reason) for the failed offense is Oriole hitters' inability to take their advice. But you say that when the problem is hitters pressing too hard,  "no coaching can help that." I can't accept that. Maybe Fuller's coaching team hasn't gotten through to the Oriole hitters. If that's the case with a lot of valuable players, and it goes on for months, you need a new coaching approach or new coaches. The alternative is to conclude that you're stuck with a bunch of flawed players who can't perform well under pressure and may never be able to turn that around.

      Let’s not overlook Harbaugh’s complete disregard for timeouts with his awful challenges. All of these little things add up over the course of a game. The Ravens continuously shoot themselves in the foot.
