Choosing Offense:

I crave an offense that is fun to watch. I’d love to see the offense making things look easy, alleviating the pressure on the defense. A couple of superstars makes an average team good and a good team great. If the Ravens choose offense over defense the plan is simple. They should bring in two receivers in Free Agency. One should be a number one receiver, the other should be an aging possession receiver (a typical Ravens pick up). Think Brandon Marshall and Pierre Garcon.

Next, Ozzie Newsome and Eric Decosta should find a diamond in the rough on the offensive line prospect like they did with Alex Lewis in the fourth round. With the rest of the draft they can fill holes on the defense, making it just good enough to work.

Think about how that would look. Joe Flacco would have two weapons he could trust to come down with the football. Breshad Perriman’s speed still comes into play and Dennis Pitta isn’t going anywhere. If Mornhinweg doesn’t ignore Kenneth Dixon, that offensive ensemble could do great things. Flacco would have the help he needs.
