Although the Baltimore Ravens enjoyed a fantastic season in 2023, their failure to make the playoffs again tarnished the season. Even though Lamar Jackson received his second MVP award, he was not able to use it to secure his long-awaited first Super Bowl trip. Consequently, the Ravens have been diligently working to enhance their squad for the 2024 season once more. Jackson hasn’t received much assistance from his supporting cast the last few seasons, so in order to win games for Baltimore, he has had to stand up and perform really well. Derrick Henry is one of the major signings to help achieve the goal of making his life easier under centre. Head coach John
The Baltimore Ravens had a great 2023 campaign, but it once again marred by a lack of success in the playoffs. While Lamar Jackson won his second MVP award, he was unable to turn it into his much-desired first Super Bowl appearance. As a result, the Ravens have once again been hard at work finding ways to improve their team for the 2024 campaign.
For the past few seasons, Jackson hasn’t always gotten a ton of help from his supporting cast, which has led to him needing to step up and do something spectacular to win Baltimore games. The goal is to make his life easier under center, with big additions such as Derrick Henry being brought in to help accomplish that. Head coach John Harbaugh still wants Jackson at the center of what the team does on offense, and he’s been impressed with how he’s taken on the challenge of finding new ways to make the unit better moving forward.
“He’s got a lot of thoughts. I think he’s looking at every aspect of his game. He starts with himself; that’s what I love about Lamar. [He asks,] ‘What can I do better?’ And that’s why he continues to improve. Then, he goes to what we need, what we need schematically in his view, and he trusts the coaches. We talked and shared ideas schematically, also personnel-wise.”
“We’re kind of working on that now, and then, he’ll come back, and he’ll look at everything, and we’ll want to know what he thinks. Like, ‘Do you prefer this or this? Are you comfortable in this direction or that direction? What do you like? [Are there] any other ideas you had since we talked last?’ Lamar will be part of the architecture. I believe he’ll be a big part of the architecture of the offense.” – John Harbaugh, BaltimoreRavens.com
