Baltimore Ravens Coach Takes The Blame For Their Shock Defeat Against the Miami Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins pulled off an absolute belter against a fearsome Baltimore Ravens as they pulled off a dramatic victory, turning the unstoppable run of Lamar Jackson into a strut. He was sacked multiple times and the offense of the Dolphins pulled off a couple of rip-roaring wonders to give some hope to their debatable season.

The Ravens coach, John Harbaugh made himself culpable for the drubbing that the Ravens received at the hands of the Dolphins. Harbaugh was seen rattled after a rare slump from the Ravens who have so far been pretty impressive, thanks to a Lamar Jackson showdown. However, every single Ravens player seemed to run out of gas and struggled vehemently against the imposing Dolphins.

This is what John Harbaugh had to say about their loss against the Miami Dolphins

John Harbaugh was heard quoting to the Athletic, “Outcoached us, outplayed us. Bottom line is, this falls squarely on me as the head coach. We were not prepared the way we needed to be prepared. Our schemes weren’t up to snuff. And we weren’t prepared to execute the way we needed to. So that’s it. Not on one player. Our players played their hearts out. … We just weren’t ready, and that’s on me.”

This was the worst outing for the Ravens as they just racked up a minimal 10 points and a negligible 304 yards. What took the Ravens by surprise is the blistering speed of Dolphins. Every time Lamar was on the ball, his space was cut short in the flash of an eye and the Ravens receivers were being crowded at the other end. Hardly, there was anything for the Ravens to smile about on the night. In fact, the young quarterback for Ravens was seen slapping the ground in frustration.

Lamar Jackson

Jackson was heard quoting, “I was hot. We weren’t scoring any points. We were putting our defense out there. They played a great game. The Dolphins had their great plays on offense, but I feel our defense played lights out, man. We just weren’t getting it done on offense. So that’s why I was mad. If you were on offense, you would be mad, too.”

The Dolphins used the Cover-0 tactics to outclass the Ravens while Jevon Holland and Brandon Jones converged on Lamar. This is a very risky tactic considering the fact that you don’t walk out of it just like that. It is a one-way ticket. You either keep on pressing hard and gain fruitful sacks or you simply lose it all.

Tight end, Mark Andrews chimed in with his opinion as he was heard quoting, “(Cover) Zero is like one of those things where you have to make them pay, you know. I don’t think early on we did that enough. That’s one of the things, you make them pay early on, they kind of get out of there.” Holland and Jones were absolutely emphatic with their blitzes that left Lamar stunned.
