Oh, comparions. Here's some more then.
Redskins have a better ranked defense, but the lack of a pass rush(21 sacks) and a recent propensity to giving up big plays does not make it top tier. Falcons protect their rookie very well(14 sacks given up) and are a little better in getting to the QB(28 sacks). Flacco is sacked more times(25), but that's still less than the 32 Jason has. Dolphins are in a similar boat as the Ravens, but they have 6 MORE sacks than the Ravens.

Also, I would say that the coaches you listed aren't rookieish as Zorn. Sparano and Smith have coordinator experience and Harbaugh coached Special Teams and Defensive backs at different times in Philly.
