Because they had to do SOMETHING. Orr has been in over his head and he played under Pees who he still had a great relationship with...when there are no other viable options, you have to do the best you can. For me..."bend don't break" is still better than a complete breakdown. The "breaking" we've seen with Orr calling the plays is worse than anything Pees did, imo. I'm still in favor of just having Pees take over--I mean at least he did do well enough to win a SB, lol And really...this offense is great enough to carry "bend don't break" (although the communication of defense HAS to improve). And besides...what other moves are available for the Ravens to make at the point?

Better to not speculate until we know. It could be a sprain too.

Or...the offense could just be having an off night no matter what the gameplan was. They're out of sorts for the first time all year. But this is where if you had a better defense...you could withstand it, lol

I don't remember it being THIS bad. I'm starting to wonder about age here...

Pssh not even that long...Day 10 at the latest! We saw can kicks happen two weeks out...so you almost wonder if it's better to just go from discreet threat to discreet threat!

As always, great points. I will say this too: For those millennial like me, I think the perspective is a bit skewed, because if you're like me and your working memory for snowstorms started at the blizzard of 96...the span from then to 2016 was one in which you still had those 3-6"ers, and every 3-4 years you'd get a good-sized storm of either a foot, or maybe two feet every 6-7 years or so. So the dud years in between were normal and expected. What we didn't see? This long of a stretch without seeing more than 5-6". Like, that never happened. It was always 3 duds then a good one. Not 8 straight like this! So I guess what I'm saying is that there is generational slanted perspective for some of us. What was a realistic expectation seems to have changed.

Please do, lol

Man how long has that dang heatwave been off of Japan anyway? 5 years? Seems like every winter there it is...

Oy if we're talking about the MJO already that tells ya where things are, haha MJO! For when nothing else is working and we wanna grasp at straws

Hasn't there been a warm anomaly there the last few winters? Seems like I've seen "wpac warm pool" a lot...

Why do Ninas tend to repeat like that anyway? Annoying as heck!

I don't know what you sound like, but I can hear the grumpy CAPE Ravens voice all over this, hahaha So again my question is...what are our options? (Real question--if there's an alternative I'd be all for it, lol)

The way I see it...at least Pees is a veteran DC who can get this defense to play to a serviceable level. Bend-don't-break is still better than what we got now, lol

Yeah I don't this uh...sorta whining everytime Harbaugh doesn't completely skewer somebody publicly after a loss. "Keep working" can mean a lot of things and we don't know what's being said in-house.

All they gotta do is get to "serviceable". Just to not suck...I think there's still time to get them there IF they make the right moves.

Let me ask ya something....what would be the positive of him throwing them under the bus right now? This is typical coachspeak they all use. This doesn't mean they're not gonna make some moves at the trade deadline (and even coaching). EDC has a track record of making moves if they're available.

Man our entire secondary except Humphrey had stone hands, lol Mercy

What do y'all think about what it could look like up at that Liberty Resort in PA this year? I'm not familiar with how this climo has been up there. If there's potential I may try skiing for the first time this year...just to see some snow, lol

I'd argue though that that was them staying aggressive instead of being passive...even if the play call was wrong. We've given up too many big leads late!

Yep--we gotta stay humble. This is reminding me of the drop-off we had from Pagano to Dean Pees in 2012 (but this may be slightly worse). Goodness gracious...but what are the options here if Zach Orr doesn't get it together? I mean...would re-hiring a now old Pees with past issues be worse than what we have? Lol

Oh yeah I wasn't questioning the data just wondering in how many the AO did what it did in 2020.

Trying to remember...did the AO ape both times or was that just 2020?

Any idea why he left? And...fantasy weather? That's not like Fantasy football is it? Lol

Dang it dude! Hahaha Where was this?

Pretty much. Even the most optimistic poster here can't really color this better as far as snow is concerned, lol
