With Leach Back Home, Ravens Have an Official Plan B

7/30/2013

Vonta Leach is back. As you may have read, I was not a fan of this signing a week ago. However, situations in the NFL are fluid, and you need to be able to adapt when things out of your control change. Dennis Pitta’s injury created a major hole in the offensive plan for this season. Leach provides a needed security blanket by making the run game that much stronger, especially in light of rookie fullback Kyle Juszczyk’s early troubles. How will this impact the direction of the offense?

Well, that was a swift shot to the gut. Dennis Pitta (or as my lovely wife calls him, Dennis “Pita Bread”) dislocates and fractures his hip, sending him to the sidelines for, most likely, the season. The cliché of “Next Man Up” will be truly tested.

With Super Bowl XLVII officially laid to rest at the Ring Ceremony and training camp looming around the corner, what can we expect from the 2013 Ravens? The original outcry of the free agent mass exodus has subsided, an under-the-radar early free agent signing period has been completed, and another stellar draft (on paper) was executed. What are the real questions that loom before training camp, and are there underlying positives that may actually offset these questions?
