The Baltimore Ravens lost arguably the most important game of their rivalry with the Pittsburgh Steelers. As they were eliminated from the playoffs, head coach John Harbaugh was also under pressure. However, he still sees a future with the franchise.

“Yeah. I love these guys,” Harbaugh said in his post-game conference.

However, the Ravens will also need to consider their moves carefully, as Harbaugh has the most wins of any franchise head coach (180-113). Additionally, there has been no indication from the owner, Steve Bisciotti, that he will be fired. In fact, Lamar Jackson was also asked about his coach’s future with the team.

To which, the quarterback stunned everyone by choosing to stay quiet over Harbaugh’s extension. When the reporter asked if he wanted to see the head coach continue at the franchise, the signal caller said:

“I’m so caught up in what just happened tonight. I can’t focus on that right now.”

The Ravens had a playoff berth and the AFC North on the line today. They went into halftime with a seven-point lead. However, the Steelers raced ahead to 13-10 when the third quarter ended. The fourth quarter had the peak of excitement for the Ravens flock and Steelers nation.

However, the 26-24 loss would cast a dark shadow on John Harbaugh’s future at the Ravens.  As a result, the calls to fire him are getting stronger.

Fans want John Harbaugh gone

The head coach has a wonderful 180-113 record in 18 seasons. But after their Super Bowl win in the 2012 season, they haven’t won the AFC Championship again. The losses are happening with the top-tier talent of their quarterback and other players, like running back Derrick Henry.

One fan requested that the management fire him and shared photos of scorelines from different matchups when the Ravens were ahead but lost. It happened in the season opener against the Buffalo Bills when they allowed 15 points in the last 10 minutes to lose. It happened in the season finale as well.

The pressure was evident throughout the matchup, but reached its peak in the final minute. Steelers kicker Chris Boswell hasn’t missed an extra point attempt since the Week 15 game of the 2023 season against the Indianapolis Colts. But he missed today. The Ravens kicker, Tyler Loop, also had a similar story. The sixth-round pick (185th overall) has missed only three field goals in his rookie season. All of them were in the 50+ range. But his kick also went sideways off the right upright.

One fan argued that they could have pushed for another play and passed the ball downfield instead of relying on a rookie kicker under extreme pressure. They also wanted the Ravens to get rid of the longtime head coach. The “Fire Harbaugh” chants have echoed throughout the 2025 campaign.

After they lost the Week 6 game to the Los Angeles Rams and slipped to 1-5, fans at the M&T Bank Stadium wanted him fired. Now, they are waving goodbye to their Super Bowl dreams in 2025. Bisciotti will break more hearts if he takes decisive action.
