Steve Bisciotti: My instincts told me this was the time to fire John Harbaugh
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti began considering a coaching change late in the season and was nearly certain he would fire John Harbaugh after the season-opening loss to the Steelers.
- The missed 44-yard field goal by Tyler Loop, which would have clinched the AFC North, did not influence the decision; Harbaugh would have remained for another week if the kick was successful.
- Bisciotti consulted key players, including Lamar Jackson, who expressed no issues with Harbaugh or offensive coordinator Todd Monken but acknowledged the need for changes.
- The decision to fire Harbaugh was finalized based on Bisciotti's instincts, citing repeated blown fourth-quarter leads and playoff underperformance as key factors.
- Despite Jackson
