The offense has sunk without so much as a whimper while franchise quarterback Lamar Jackson nurses a hamstring injury, and defensive coordinator Zach Orr\u2019s unit continues to be among the most generous in football.<\/p>\n<p>Harbaugh was forced to publicly defend Orr\u2019s position after Week 5\u2019s 44-10 demolition at the hands of the Houston Texans. Similar questions will increase in both number and volume, but Orr still has the backing of a senior player.<\/p>\n<p>Offensive coordinator Todd Monken might not be able to say the same after he\u2019s been unable to scheme creative ways to still move the ball without Jackson. Monken lacked the right calls even when Pro Bowl backup Tyler Huntley, who was smartly elevated from the practice squad before the visit of the Rams, replaced erratic Cooper Rush.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019ll take more than Jackson\u2019s anticipated return to restore some of the goodwill Monken had enjoyed.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>John Harbaugh Feeling the Pressure<\/h2>\n<p>Harbaugh hasn\u2019t experienced what he\u2019s going through now often during his 18 years in charge. He\u2019s beset by questions about the quality of his coaching and the soundness of his decisions, specifically those made to choose the coaches around him.<\/p>\n<p>An increased level of pressure might be alien to Harbaugh, but it\u2019s inevitable after the Super Bowl winner has developed a damaging habit of not winning when it\u2019s expected. The difference now is this isn\u2019t any playoff curse, but misery in the regular season.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s worse is much of the misery has been self-inflicted in ways that don\u2019t reflect well on Harbaugh and his staff. Wasting double-digit leads has been a trend for too long, just like failures to protect the football, but the Ravens are also finding new ways to lose, and Harbaugh\u2019s coordinators seem to be out of answers.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Ravens\u2019 Coordinators in Focus for the Wrong Reasons<\/h2>\n<p>The most common way the Ravens are losing games this season involves a once-proud defense folding too easily on a weekly basis. The Rams weren\u2019t anywhere close to their best, but they still amassed 255 yards and scored a touchdown through the air and on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Orr has long looked out of his depth as a play-caller, but the 33-year-old retains the support of a player who\u2019s seen the lot during his pro career. Nose tackle John Jenkins is a 13-year veteran of eight teams who\u2019s \u201cseen a lot of football,\u201d and believes \u201cZach is a good DC,\u201d per Ravens.com (h\/t Ravens Vault co-host Bobby Trosset).<\/p>\n<div id=\"f00ee4bece96108ab29ceaf5b0b7ca0b\">\n<div>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>13-year NFL vet John Jenkins on Zach Orr:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve seen a lot of football. \u2026 Zach is a good DC. I\u2019ve been around a lot. I stand behind him 110 percent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>via @Ravens<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>While Orr is winning over experienced figures in the locker room, Monken may need to do some damage control after his short-yardage calls failed miserably against the Rams. He should start by explaining why he kept the ball out of two-time NFL rushing champion Derrick Henry\u2019s hands at the one-yard line.<\/p>\n<p>Henry didn\u2019t hear his number called until tight end Mark Andrews had been stuffed on two \u201ctush push\u201d style QB sneaks with the game tied at 3-3 in the second quarter. Henry had been working the Rams over, averaging 5.1 yards per carry en route to 122 rushing yards, but he was dropped for a loss on fourth down.<\/p>\n<p>Harbaugh was content to blame a lack of push up front for the failures, per Shaffer, but Monken\u2019s decision to take the ball away from Henry was bizarre.<\/p>\n<div id=\"276d7087c0982a86f15a88cd1ad46917\">\n<div>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>John Harbaugh on the Ravens\u2019 tush push failures: \u201cIt should get pushed in on the first one. And if not the first one, it should get pushed in on the second one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Harbaugh said the Ravens failed there because they didn\u2019t get any push up front.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>It\u2019s one more reason why Harbaugh and his staff must use the bye as a time for some humbling self-assessment. They haven\u2019t been good enough at putting the healthy players available in positions to succeed.<\/p>\n<p>Problems at the coaching level have only been magnified by high-profile injury-enforced absences. Those same issues can still cost the Ravens when their lineup is back on a par with the league\u2019s most-talented teams.<\/p>\n<p>James Dudko covers the New York Giants, Washington Commanders, New England Patriots and Baltimore Ravens for Heavy.com.
