[@dallashanson_]

I think fans undervalue coaching. I’m not worried about our players vs the chief players. I’m worried if our coaching staff can out coach their coaching staff.

[@justenhayes3774]

Hey Bobby we have to give the man some grace considering what he's done for us. I think the unfollow is probably clearing his headspace personally. That's a lot of pressure as the face of the defense.

[@jefferylord3068]

Pride, the unfollowing is tit for tat.

[@NeverStop909]

You can’t throw stones and hide your hands

[@hamesrm1]

RO will make it count this next game I believe on him

[@curtsuneson6161]

Bobby's job is not to coddle players feelings. This is the NFL. When you are not playing up to the standard people are going to point it out. Especially those in the media space. Surprised at the amount of fans that think we are supposed to just coddle these players.

[@kingroyalty9621]

I called this from game 1…I’m glad everyone else finally catching up ….he clearly out of shape !

[@KiB4nditX]

Out of shape and is the 4th leading tackler in the league.

[@TheButcher-w7z]

I don't see it...He's a linebacker who specializes in the run stop and has never been lightning fast. He has always been a phenomenal tackler and still is. What he does he does extremely well. I think the issue is the secondary personally.

[@melaninknowledge3658]

​@@TheButcher-w7zi agree, our secondary is so bad that they're taking RO away from his main role and using him in a different role where he doesn't exceed.

[@seanwarner2617]

He's slower this year.... definitely looks heavier

[@TheButcher-w7z]

@@seanwarner2617 doesn't need to be super fast and there's plenty of heavier linebackers. Dude's takes a beating and has played almost every snap. Out of shape is laughable.

[@briizy300]

IMO our best defenders this season have been the Kyle’s & marlon

[@lariojaalta890]

Agree - with a shoutout to Wiggins. Also Van Noy early & Madubuike lately.

[@melaninknowledge3658]

Wiggins, marlo, and Hamilton

[@RoyalJones-nw2si]

What if the issue is not the palyers, but couching? These guys were studs just last year and demolished most of the teams they faced. So, to me, i truly believe this has everything to do with couching.

[@TheButcher-w7z]

As much as I hate to say it hey have looked poorly coached all year. And not just on defense. It's week 11 and we still haven't gotten over the penalty issues on either side of the ball. Basic fundamental stuff.

[@GoddeKnows]

Roquan is the one usually out of place. Everything can be the coach. Plus we dropped picks in almost every game, so that’s lets you know he has them in good enough positions to make plays.

[@TheButcher-w7z]

@@GoddeKnows Fourth leading tackler and a huge part of the reason ravens have best run defense in the league. Pass coverage is not his specialty nor does it need to be. And that's not to say he hasn't been out of position a few times I'm just saying I think he deserves benefit of the doubt a whole lot more than the secondary. They didn't give up 260 passing yards to the running back last week it was Jamar Chase.

[@GoddeKnows]

@ man he plays clean up most of the time and he is not a huge part of the run defense. Even if he was a huge part of the run defense, he is the biggest liability in the middle of the field.

[@TheButcher-w7z]

@@GoddeKnows He cleans up and isn't a part of the run defense? You clearly just don't watch. 🤣We have been getting burned deep WAY more than the middle of the field. Every single corner has been lackluster with the exception of Marlo. That's just my opinion. And again I'm certainly not saying Roquan hasn't made mistakes too I'm just saying they haven't been as costly. And his exceptional tackling outweighs that for me

[@GoGoOpie]

Every week for 10 weeks the defense and the secondary in particular say "we've just gotta get better" yet the DON'T!!

[@RickAnderson19]

Your video is inane. Smith isn’t the reason teams are dropping 20 yd bombs on us. If our ILBs have to cover deep for us to win, then we’ve already lost. Ask Zach Orr why RO keeps having to cover WRs coming across the field. Stupid video.

[@BIGMIKESTROCUM]

Patrick Queen covered up a lot of Roquan's inability to cover

[@tavonb6478]

Ro and The Ravens players just want Baltimore fans and media to support the team and have their backs and not cry and complain after every game😫😂. I can’t remember hearing so much complaining in the media, Jesus!!Its the NFL, every team will have greatness and weakness which needs adjustments as the season go on.

[@rochyns8567]

Ro is right. It was embarrassing. The first unit that the Steelers are going to target is the secondary, namely Stephens and Williams. Even if there are new coaches and loss of some players but it baffles me as to why it's THAT bad!

[@thebrickflair]

Bc the new guy isn’t very good

[@micawells4608]

Yea but can he cover a TE

[@lees5953]

You put a rookie barely beside him and new dc who’s learn of course Ro looks bad. Trent is always out of place looks like, no pass rushers so the backend looks weak. EDC is failing Lamar’s greatness that’s who to blame.

[@kennedid243]

You're making excuses for roquan. Fred Warner is playing with a scrub beside him beacuse of the greenlaw injury and he's still ballin.

[@Parasite_Eve_1776]

Bandwagon fans are starting to get old.

[@cordariusjohnson2601]

Man stop that shit they put Kyle beside him and he still be getting cooked. Quite honestly Trent does better than him in coverage most of the time. Ro need to figure shit out

[@GoddeKnows]

The guy beside him ain’t a rookie and Trenton Simpson is actually playing well. Roquan doesn’t know what to do in coverage. His reaction time is bad and other times he is playing way to close to the line of scrimmage leaving the middle open. He also doesn’t make contact with people running across his face.

[@TheLinkremmy]

Smith is getting paid 20 million a year it should matter who's lined up next to him.

[@plumberdylan1058]

It’s either one of two things either Roquan does not trust the other people to do the coverage and feels he needs to do it all himself or with the absence of Patrick Queen Roquan cannot focus knowing that he has somebody next to him that can handle business

[@DITBC]

I have friends that are Bears fans. When this trade happened the immediate reaction from them was “he’s a huge liability in pass coverage.”

[@DionMorley]

That’s why you have DB’s, they getting torched

[@micawells4608]

When I say stuff like this about certain players on our team people think I'm wrong He been lost whole season

[@PalindromeDesign]

They play zone to absolute death. Harbaugh was quoting about three or four "types" of zone, blah blah blah...passively aggressively trying to intimidate the press corp that he is SO casually in command of the situation. IOW, it's SO complex that y'all in the press corp can't understand, but the team' will work it out eventually (Next year?? WTF?) If that's the case, then obviously your DC and players don't understand it either based on the ridiculously bad results. Pissing away ANOTHER season of God-level Lamar.

[@JamesBerry-y6o]

The ravens lost their own defensive coaching staff

[@ravens76bmore54]

Bobby you not being Negative. We all see this train coming a mile away. We want Lamar to hoist that Lombardi trophy. Get it together defense!!

[@thelakeshow499]

Let me take up for my guy Roquan Smith let’s get this straight he’s Not a deep cover zone linebacker why the hell is he take far down the field guarding anyone he is not a safety he is a big hitting read and react thumping linebacker like Mike singletery !!! Get him back closer to the line an if you must use him in pass coverage let be in just a zone middle read an react guy let everyone else man up simple fix !!! Play two high safety man to man on the slots an on the outside Wiggins an Marlon can handle that an keep two linebackers in a tight zone in the middle of the field where roquan an Simpson or hamlition can roam free in the middle an not worry about getting beat deep !!!

[@RickAnderson19]

YES!!! YES!!! I didn't read your post, but I wrote the same thing! Our ILBs aren't even playing their traditional roles because they are way the fuk downfield in zone pass defense covering freaking WRs. YES!! Thank you!

[@jawayne224]

we should have kept Dennard Wilson instead of Orr. Wilson is just as inexperienced as Zach and Tennessee has the #1 defense. he's doing more with less

[@ericjohnson8348]

FACTS

[@GoddeKnows]

Naw them numbers a fudged. They also 29th in scoring defense. And that one game against Detroit they got the ball ran on them so bad and and 4 turnovers so the lions stopped running the ball with like 60 yards which helped their rankings a lot. Then they started off the year with 4 really bad passing teams.

[@jawayne224]

@GoddeKnows hes doing more with less. kind of how our running defense numbers are fudged

[@GoddeKnows]

@@jawayne224no he just playing bad passing teams, but yeah our run defense numbers are misleading the same way.

[@ljonas31]

Now I definitely agree with that

[@Randy-ce3yb]

Thats my Ravens, finally build an UNSTOPABLE offense around the incredible Jackson, and let all their badass defensive players go. Baltimore has ALWAYS been a tough deffensive team. Stop being cheap if ya want the ring. Lamar will never get his respect without the ring. We paid him 250 million dollars for five years, guess what we want? Yes a ring. So now you have failures on the deep passes I MEAN HORRIBLE EFFORT FAILURES. MAYBE MAYBE MAYBE.....

[@jamiesenger7821]

Our 2 worst players on defence are costing this team $170mil combined! That’s a huge liability

[@AdversaryGaming]

Lamar needs to go to the nfc if he wants a superbowl appearance.. every year its something with the ravens that goes wrong lol this team is exhausting to watch

[@harunrashid6093]

[@GenXMediahiphopbattlerap]

You know what is funny we talk more about how bad this defense is more then we ever use to talk about how bad the offense was for years we have had a offense that didn't score a TD in the month of October 🤦🏿‍♂️ we had a defense that held Peyton Manning to all field goals and a offense that could get one TD my point is I don't remember these daily conversations when we had bad offense at this point we know the Def has been bad all I know is we 7-3 with the number 1 offense

[@GenXMediahiphopbattlerap]

Everything with the defense is not all bad we wouldn't have been able to get back in that Cincinnati game without the defense forcing insecuring that fumble we wouldn't have been in the position to take the lead if the defense didn't get stops so yeah they historically bad this but as long as we can get them to make a play here and there we will be just fine

[@Ghragle-]

But that was our identity. And we obviously complained. Remember how upset we got when Joe flaccco got at the time the highest paid contract in bfl history?

[@tyroneallsup1072]

Its not Roquans fault , hes not a corner , or a safety you act as if its his fault Jamar Chase got the 300 yards receiving on him , sometimes i think you need something to talk about. If you knew what you were talking about you would know that there are layers to the defense and it starts up front with an effective pass rush.

[@jarmalbrooks9005]

My thing is he wasn’t lost last year in coverage?? What’s really the problem??

[@jahvonbarnes]

My only issue with ppl who do stuff like this is how can you criticize somebody job that you can't go out and do?? Like how can ppl complain and criticize somebody job you can't physically go out and do ?? I know it's there job but come on now y'all act like ppl don't have bad seasons I just think ppl just be trying to get views

[@SoFlyBmOr3]

The chiefs had a bad defense and they shaped it up quickly last year in the last 7 games of the year I'm Confident the defense can be fixed we have the players. I'm confident we can do this

[@TheGreatness-gg1jx]

0 isn't the problem exactly. He's trying to do too much because #23 just isn't up to speed. 14 is trying to do a lot to make up for #23's inexperience too but he can only do so much up front because his unit is struggling so hardon the back end. Roquan isn't an elite coverage LB. He looks a step slow because he's trying to do too much and is THINKING. That's where PQ became so good. PQ was faster and much better in coverage last year at least but it took him what, 3 years, to reach that point. I think everyone expected 23 to just step into Queen's shoes and not miss a beat but things haven't worked out that way. The weak DL just makes EVEYRTHING worse.

[@micawells4608]

It's Smith to I'm sorry he's lost out there period

[@jefferylord3068]

Whats his pff ranking among linebackers right now? I know Marcus Williams is very nearly dead last

[@aggie7978]

OK so we ALL can see how bad our defense is RIGHT NOW. But here's the thing we all need to encourage these guys more than this take here. They know how they are not playing up to par. What does it do to a team where the commentator and fans, not all, are just brow beating them to no end. That is unacceptable and needs to stop. Speak positivity when you talk about our defense. Put some positive juju out here. OK you might not want to but consider me one who does. Let's Goooooooooooo Defense. Put these critics to shame!!!

[@Fmr.PBAJoeJenkinsII]

I'm guessing that Roquan won't be back on the Vault anytime soon???

[@BADDAZZBLACKBIRDZ]

I can't wait till we play Sunday so you can get off of this game.. That was last week's business. We have new business to take care of

[@briizy300]

Secondary is abysmal Middle linebackers are average roqaun elevated Patrick but Patrick complemented roqaun D line has been better the last 2 games

[@mickeywiesner9810]

An Easy Fix: More Man, specifically on outside receivers. Stagger, Layer, Zone in between numbers with ROQUAN exclusively on short and intermediate - nothing else. Let Simpson roam like Hamilton does, Blitz, Flats, TE coverage, etc So That Kyle can Be A Safety with Ardarius. Try out the rookies, too. No More Marcus Or Eddie! Let Tre White Cook!

[@jarmalbrooks9005]

Don’t understand why they ain’t letting Simpson blitz.. may they don’t trust em idk bc PQ damn sure was blitzing last year

[@mickeywiesner9810]

@ Exactly. And he’s got Ro going out to cover WRs on the outside sometimes. There’s a few things that don’t make much sense.

[@briansmad1]

I guess Ryan Clark forgot the Ravens destroyed the Bills, this year, with this terrible defense.

[@dcarroll221ify]

Unfortunately the folks we have on defense and the defense coordinator will not let us win this year. We can't go into the playoffs with the way we playing. If one player can burn us up like chase did what's going to happen when we go against two top wr on one team

[@aritaeus1432]

I think man to man 80 percent of the plays and a little zone on 2nd or 3rd and longer then 12.

[@number1chiefROKKA]

I'm sorry, I have no idea what am looking at on defense for the Ravens. Lamar is going to get blamed for losing in the playoffs again because they are atrocious. I mean horrifically bad. Chase had numbers you don't even accumulate on Madden. It's bad bad.

Ro is too focused on the qb. When he's in coverage he has no idea what's going on behind him. His eyes are in the wrong place at the wrong time.
