Here's my take on Ravens offensive coordinator Marc Trestman: He was not doing a great job, but he should not be blamed for all the Ravens woes ("Marc Trestman would probably still be employed if Ravens had dependable offensive front," Oct. 11).
Much of the team, including all the coaches, need to enroll in Football 101 to understand more about the game.
Inside linebacker C.J. Mosley's desperate attempt to get into the end zone only makes sense if it is the last play of the game — protect the ball and give your offense a first and goal (Football 101).
For placekicker Justin Tucker to line up in Cecil County on the fake field goal pretty much told the Redskins what was coming down the pike — don't let your opponent know what you are doing (Football 101).
What was head coach John Harbaugh thinking with two seconds left in the first half with first down and 80 yards to go? An avoidable injury took place, and quarterback Joe Flacco never threw the Hail Mary, which is the only thing that would have made sense (Football 101).
Risking "for sure" points (field goals or extra points) does not bode well when we are forced to go for the touchdown at end of game, which was the case in our first two losses — always take the points in the first three quarters. Always! (Football 101).
