The word out of mandatory mini-camp is aggressive. Garrett Downing shared his thoughts on the Ravens’ new defensive coordinator, Zach Orr. Downing noted that the Ravens got a great pass rush last season without blitzing at a high volume. He sees Orr’s tendencies to be more aggressive while staying true to the main principles Mike Macdonald put in place last season. The long-time Ravens media man said this:
“Now, I don’t think we’re talking about a drastic transformation here, I don’t think it’s going to go back to when Wink Martindale was the defensive play caller for the Ravens, often led the league when it came to blitzing, I think it’s going to be somewhere in the middle of where it was with Wink and where it was with Mike.
