Baltimore Beatdown
The Baltimore Ravens have completed their first round of head coaching interviews.
Probably.
After meeting with Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady and 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh on Sunday, the Ravens have interviewed all of their known candidates to replace John Harbaugh. It is possible that the team still has unreported interview requests for other coaches.
The Ravens also have at least three candidates whose teams will be playing in the conference championship round next weekend. In-person interviews with those coaches will have to wait until the following week, so the team could take advantage of the extra time by interviewing a few more candidates.
More likely, though, Baltimore is ready to move to their in-person interviews. They were reportedly trying to line up a second interview with Kevin Stefanski before he accepted a head coaching gig with the Atlanta Falcons. That cut the Ravens’ list down to 15 coaches, though again, there could still be a few additions to that group.
At the moment, it seems like Kubiak and Chargers DC Jesse Minter are the likeliest candidates to get a second interview. Former Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel probably belongs on that list, too. Broncos quarterbacks coach Davis Webb could be a dark horse, especially if Jarret Stidham puts up a solid performance in the AFC Championship Game. It is not hard to imagine Saleh impressing in his interview, either.
News about the Ravens’ second interview requests should trickle out this week. Be sure to check Baltimore Beatdown’s head coach tracker for the latest updates!
