Is it the system…is it the play calling…is it the players? Why is the offense still so inept? Now that OC Jim Fassel has been dismissed and head coach Brian Billick is taking over the play calling we have the rare opportunity to compare the offensive production between two offensive coordinators within the same season.
This is the first time in the Ravens history the OC has been replaced during the season. Can Billick right the ship and make the offense better? BTN will track the production from the first six games with Jim Fassel and compare it to the remaining ten games with Brian Billick on a weekly basis. The stats below show where the Ravens ranked after the first six games. Check back each week to see if the offense under Billick is making any progress.
