Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson addressed the speculations of internal frustration with Offensive coordinator Todd Monken on Tuesday. Inside reports have said that a host of players have become confused with his play-calling amid a disappointing 2-5 start.
Ahead of the Ravens' Thursday night game against the Miami Dolphins, Jackson has backed the coach, who is in his third year with the team. His first two seasons in Baltimore have been record-breaking making the quarterback believe the fault is not on him.
“We've been winning all these games over the years with him,” Jackson said. “It's been about 3 years. The start of a slow season, I feel like everybody plays a part in their own way. You can't put that on one person.”
In his first two seasons, Todd Monken generally adhered the game plan outlined during weekly preparations. This year, however the offensive coordinator has caught some players with the group red handed by deviating from the plan with unexpected play calls.
This tactics has reportedly sparked a rift with players, who rehearse specific plays all week and feel confident in their execution, only to see a different plan employed during games. Nonetheless, Lamar Jackson thinks everyone is to blame for the team's collapse.
