The Baltimore Ravens' offensive struggles this season could have been expected considering their roster construction and number of injuries. The issues they've experienced on the other side of the ball, however, -- including being last in the league against the run -- have been significantly more perplexing.
Ravens defensive coordinator Dean Pees suggested the issues could be related to the unit trying to do too much.
"We're struggling a little bit right now. I think we're pressing a little bit," Pees said. "We got to get back to just letting it go and playing football and playing defense. I think we're all pressing -- me included sometimes -- and that's usually not a good thing."
