OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- John Harbaugh defended the complexity of the Baltimore Ravens' offense after former tight end Dennis Pitta suggested it was a one read-and-checkdown system.
"I've been in every single offensive meeting and I know how the reads are built," Harbaugh said Wednesday. "And they're not one read and dump it down."
The Ravens offense has struggled mightily this season, ranking 30th in total offense (310.6) and last in passing (167.7 yards). Part of the problem has been Baltimore's inability to stretch the field. Joe Flacco's average pass is traveling 6.
