Jimmy Smith’s Awkward Response

Print this article

There is no denying it; the Ravens pass defense has been horrendous in the first half of the 2015 season.

Much blame has been directed toward the secondary through the first eight games. They can’t hold leads late in games. They can’t get off the field on third downs. They can’t create turnovers.

They are the biggest reason that the Ravens are sitting with a 2-6 record.

Many fault defensive coordinator Dean Pees. Others have pointed fingers at starting cornerbacks Jimmy Smith and Lardarius Webb, both of whom have struggled mightily.
