Before the 2023 season began, some observers believed that the Ravens offense would start slow. It was to be expected. The offensive system being implemented by new coordinator Todd Monken would take some time given its schematic departure from Greg Roman’s four-year-old blueprint. And let’s not forget that the preseason is no longer viewed as an opportunity to put the new plan in motion. In the modern NFL, it simply represents a chance to avoid injury.
So, the sluggish should be no surprise and at its controls – none other than Lamar Jackson.
Lamar has played decently.
