Baltimore Ravens 2024 Team Preview w/ Ken McKusick
Manage episode 432333003 series 3390846
The Baltimore Ravens have undergone some significant changes this offseason, notably the loss of Defensive Coordinator Mike Macdonald. Under Macdonald, the Ravens' defense was a top-three unit in terms of EPA per play, excelling with a "positionless" defense that confused opposing quarterbacks. Despite a low blitz rate, they led the league in sacks. Stepping in as the new defensive coordinator is Zach Orr, a first-time play caller who has been with the organization since 2014, first as a player and then as a defensive coach.
On the offensive line, the Ravens face challenges after losing guards Kevin Zeitler and John Simpson, as well as right tackle Morgan Moses. The team has opted not to bring in free agents, choosing instead to promote from within. Ken discusses what the offensive line might look like, including the potential impact of second-round pick Roger Rosengarten.
The Ravens' offense, led by Offensive Coordinator Todd Monken, seems confident in its pass-catching options despite losing Odell Beckham Jr. and making few offseason additions. One notable addition is Tez Walker, a fourth-round draft pick. Ken explores whether the Ravens might use more 12 personnel in 2024, given their depth at tight end with Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely, who impressed during Andrews' injury last season.
