Browns

Ravens

  • Ravens HC John Harbaugh said it is โ€œon the tableโ€ for them to deploy a more up-tempo and no-huddle offense. (Jeff Zrebiec)
  • Regarding finding solutions for dealing with pressure on Lamar Jackson, Harbaugh said they will look at things โ€œschematicallyโ€ to deal with pass rushes: โ€œThere are going to be things that you got to work on that you got to work through and get past schematically, personnel-wise, execution-wise, idea-wise.โ€ (Jamison Hensley)
  • Harbaugh believes the added pressure from defenses is the โ€œnature of a long seasonโ€ with teams scheming against them: โ€œThatโ€™s the nature of a long season that youโ€™re going to have turns in the road that you got to work through. Itโ€™s not the end of the world. Weโ€™ve made plays against, whatever youโ€™re talking about, blitz or whatever it is.โ€ (Hensley)
