Marty Mornhinweg is in his third year as the Ravens' offensive coordinator, originally assuming the role in Week 6 of 2016. Mornhinweg, a 34-year coaching veteran and former NFL head coach (Lions), has an extensive background coordinating offenses and tutoring quarterbacks. Under Mornhinweg, the Ravens' offense has seen recent gains both in the run game and passing game and has increased its scoring numbers as well. Baltimore finished the 2017 season ranking ninth overall in points per game (24.7). Over the last nine contests of the season, the Ravens scored the NFL's second-most points per game (29.4). During the same span, the Ravens also ranked No. 1 in fewest giveaways (5) and No. 2 in sacks allowed (10). Mornhinweg originally joined the Ravens in 2015 as quarterbacks coach, helping guide QB Joe Flacco to a career-high and franchise-best 4,317 passing yards in 2016. That season, the Ravens' offense also featured 1,000-yard receiver Mike Wallace (1,017) and TE Dennis Pitta, who ranked No. 1 in the NFL in catches by a tight end (86). In his first season with the Ravens (2015), Mornhinweg helped Baltimore rack up a franchise-record 4,271 net passing yards (266.9 ypg) and the second-most total net yards in team history (5,749).
Additional Coaching Highlights: Throughout his NFL coaching career, five quarterbacks have earned Pro Bowl honors under Mornhinweg's direction: Michael Vick, Donovan McNabb, Jeff Garcia, Steve Young and Brett Favre. As offensive coordinator of the New York Jets (2013-14), the team's rushing attack ranked as the NFL's third best (138.7 ypg) unit, which includes posting the league's No. 3 average (142.5 ypg) in 2014. Prior to joining the Jets, Mornhinweg spent 10 seasons (2003-12) in Philadelphia, including nine (2004-12) as the Eagles' offensive coordinator/assistant head coach. In that role, he helped the Eagles set single-season franchise records in total net yards (6,386 in 2011), total points (439 in 2010), average per rush (5.4 in 2010), third-down percentage (42.4 in 2007), net passing yards (4,119 in 2006), passer rating (96.7 in 2006) and fewest INTs (9 in 2006). He and John Harbaugh spent five seasons (2003-07) together on the Eagles' coaching staff. Mornhinweg earned his first NFL head-coaching post with the Detroit Lions from 2001-02. His first NFL coordinator job came with the San Francisco 49ers (1997-2000), where in 1998, the team set franchise marks in total yards (6,800), first downs (381) and rushing yards (2,544). San Francisco also became the first team since the 1941 Chicago Bears to lead the NFL both in rushing yards and gross passing yards in a single season. Only three teams have accomplished this feat in NFL history: 1998 San Francisco 49ers and 1939 and 1941 Chicago Bears. His first NFL coaching opportunity came in Green Bay (1995-96), where in 1996, he served as the Packers' QBs coach and helped guide Favre to NFL MVP honors and a victory in Super Bowl XXXI.
