Love the hire! Kingsbury next for OC
If mack can make a nfc championship with sam Donarnold, Minter should, ……. with Lamar. Got it, luv the setup too. Minter get me Jacob Rodriguez, Ray 2.0, and im in with yah. Rebuild us a championship defense, and the offense, well that ownership falls on a yr 9 veteran qb. Somebody gone have to be held accountable 😅
Great hire hire Joe Brady as OC now
We're fucked
As long as we fix the OL…LJ & King Henry can handle the Offense…
I got Joe Brady as our OC
Good God is building my Ravens Flock the right way starting with Jessie Minter he is going to do wonder for us and now we focus on our OC and DC
Absolutely love this hire! Minter has had great success wherever he goes and the players always spoke so highly of him all around. This is who we needed to get over the hill we’ve been stuck on!
If we hire a coach named James, we could become Team Rocket
Here in 2026, and the Baltimore Ravens still have never had a black head coach. They could’ve done something bold and hired a female coach as well.
Jesse welcome back to Baltimore! Plz Plz Plz, hire a OC that does not take his foot off the gas in any quarter and any score.
Let's hope his hiring will turn things around for the Ravens-the SB window for this current Ravens team is closing fast.
This team needs a coach who can rally the troops, as EDC said. It felt like the team wasn't playing like a team this season. Optimistic for next season!
EDC hired someone who won’t change his authority
I hope Harbaugh’s nepo baby works out 🤷🏽♂️
Hopefully he mints superbowl rings.
Gotta bring back Weaver for DC
EDC always takes the best available whether in the draft or coach 🤣
You don't owe us an explanation, EDC. We all know why.
EDC needs to invest more in trenches and in Lamar Jackson. If he doesn’t do his job by not addressing and neglecting the trenches again this offseason, then he’s needs to go. Get Lamar protection (get Faalele and Vorhees off of the team), get some dawgs on the d-line that could rush the passer consistently, and find a number 1 wr for Lamar please. It’s going on year 9 for Lamar and still has never experienced a top wideout like this other top qbs have. No more building the team through the secondary. Building the team around Lamar should be the main focus.
Lamar Jackson is a BUM – Get Rid of Him NOW.!!!!
I was hopeful for the first minority head coach for the franchise.
Yes. Baltimore has been a DEFENSIVE team since we began.. but we don't have the leadership of Ray Lewis, Ed Reed Terrell Suggs.. etc… WE NEED TO LET LAMAR BLOOM. Let that dude throw for 30+ a game.
Or let our RBs run 30+ times a game.. remember Flacco years? Flacco would throw 30+ a game, 30 rushes a game by Ray Rice, blah blah… petition to get Marshall Yanda back
I was excited to see Lamar Jackson with a safisticated elite offensive system instead of these college predictable offenses. I was hoping we got McDaniel or kubeyak. Looks like Lamar is getting a Kingsbury his offense is predictable and not suited more for a rookie, Brady is limited, too. It is what it is . Welcome, Minter.
Poor EDC looks like he needs a nap in a bad way.
I hope EDC never leaves
Listen, if you’re not here to help Lamar succeed throughout the season, playoffs, and Win a Super Bowl then it’s pointless. The new OC needs to be one that Lamar likes and can connect with in order to pull the best out of LJ. BUT, you have to fix both sides of the TRENCHES as well in order to do so! #SBOB💜🖤👿😈🐦⬛🐦⬛
the reason why yall hired him is because you cant get out of harbs coaching tree worried about familiarity instead of whats best for the team .. should have kept harbs if you trying to keep the same culture …. and the fact you even let Joe Brady make second round of interviews over mike mcdaniels just proves how clueless this team is with a coaching search
OL WAS STRUGGLING LAST SEASON HELP THEM PLZ
I felt like he was our guy
Find us some 500 lb bench press offensive line men and two dogs at pass rushers and boom 🤯
Fire EDC
