Idk... I never really considered him a candidate. If they are going to do this right, it has to be a younger guy. But even that doesn't sound right. He's not an old guy, but older school. I think we really need newer school. I'm sort of glad he's not an option. I'd like someone who will actually challenge Harbs. someone who might puch him to the office and take his job.
Frank Reich is 60 years old and the type of offense he runs is probably not far from what The Eagles are running now. Not many coaches at 60 years old get head coaching opportunities unless they have had some success at the head coach level previously in their career.So I guess you can call him old at the coaching level.
I think a guy like Reich would probably be more of a challenge to Harbaugh job than some young guy that hasn't called plays before and adjusting to the leadership role that a coordinator must have. I would love for The Ravens to hire a innovative coordinator but I think it's deeper than creative play calling that this offense especially LJ needs. Im just not sure if a young guy will really push LJ to be at this best.
Ravens need a coordinator that's going to really key on LJ playing fundamentally sound more consistent because it's happen two often since after 2019 where his throw mechanics start off hot early in the season then gets cold as the season goes on. I think James Urban has been a good QB for LJ and maybe his coaching has been limited due to Roman offense but overall I think The Ravens offense need a creative play caller at OC but also one that really commands the room. I think this is why I'm more of a fan of Todd Monken right now but thank you for joining my Ted Talk
