Coaching Carousel 2026

I know nothing about this guy. Anyone?

 

[rossihunter2]

The texts are starting to slow so here's my recap of what I understand. My info is going to be from the FO perspective because that's where the line is with my guy...

They were planning as of this morning for Harbaugh to be the coach, and Monken to be let go. Unsure on what they thought was going to happen with Orr.

Harbaugh and Bisciotti met today, and Harbaugh wanted to run it back with the same staff for the most part. Bisciotti wanted a new face on offense. Harbaugh resisted. He was informed he was being let go rather abruptly. FO did not fully know that was how Harbaugh was approaching the meeting, but there's nothing more to that other than them prepping for their own meetings amidst all of the chaos.

DeCosta also met with Bisciotti at some point over the last couple of days. He was told that Bisciotti wants to win and to make it happen. Expect some aggression.

Bisciotti also knows this is Lamar's team right now. They're fortunate enough to have a superstar QB. Go win with him.

Can also say there was a group of veteran players that felt the message was growing stale and relayed that up. Don't know if that had any impact on the decision ultimately, but thought it was notable.

Names I've heard of interest so far: Kliff Kingsbury, Jesse Minter, Brian Flores

Minter and Flores both make a ton of sense for there to be interest
I dont get it with Kingsbury

I know nothing about this guy. Anyone?

if that's to be a DC for a potential HC candidate then sure
but he's a DC who doesn't even call the defence for his own team

 

[rossihunter2]

Haven't drafted a HOFer in a long time? Do Lamar Jackson and Kyle Hamilton not exist?

lamar's literally 1 more MVP or a first superbowl from being able to retire right now and still be a HOFer

Not sure if this guy is legit but sharing anyways

- The fact Harbaugh wanted to run it back with the same staff is insane. Something needed to be changed after that loss, whether it was Harbaugh, Monken, Orr, something needed to change. Harbaugh being that delusional to think we could have made a run with the same staff sealed his own fate.

- Eric DeCosta feeling a bit of pressure, good. The way this team has been built roster wise, Eric certainly deserved some of the blame for the shortcomings. Especially not investing in our offensive line and defensive line. Also, Maxx Crosby....... YOU ARE A RAVEN!

- So that basically kills every report out there in terms of Lamar being traded. Steve wants Lamar here and it sounds like he's willing to pay whatever to keep Lamar here until the end of his career.

- Kliff Kingsbury..... no. Jesse Minter sounds good, I'd like to think due to the Michigan connection, Jesse Minter might be highly pursued by the Raiders and Tom Brady. Flores would be a great choice, the only problem is Flores I think still has that lawsuit against the NFL and the last thing we need is more BS penalties because the league wants to punish him. He's perfect to fix the defensive issues but offensively, who does he hire?

so at least one team that hasn't got a HC vacancy has been in touch with Harbs lol

Miami

The only thing that I do know about him is that he does call the defense. Ryan’s handed it over

TBF, not much of a rocket science - release the dogs up front, we're good.

I had the same thought. Orr could probably look decent calling that defense lol

 

[allblackraven]

Bring Alec for HC.

 

[rossihunter2]

I've been incredibly impressed with how much the Rams have grown their offensive talent. Especially across the offensive line, which currently features a UDFA LT, a 2nd round LG, a UDFA C, a UDFA RG, and a 5th round RT. Obviously so much credit goes to Les Snead and Sean McVay. But I'd like for us to bring in Mike LaFleur for an interview.

semantics but their RT is a backup, their starting RT going into the year was Rob Havenstein who was a 2nd rounder

so in fact it's:
LT: UDFA - homegrown - high-priced extension
LG: 2nd rounder - homegrown
C: UDFA - not technically homegrown but basically is
RG: 4th rounder - big free agent signing
RT: 2nd rounder - homegrown

Steve saw what we saw on offense and wanted answers. Why is John so damn stubborn man.

I like the heat on DeCosta, get aggressive. Steve wants to win and he wants to win with the superstar QB.

 

[Darklight1216]

That's incredible. Every single team in just 45 minutes.

Ppl used to say that he'd be picked up immediately. They weren't lying.

 

[gtalk12]

My boss wants the Ravens to get the coach from Notre Dame.

I told him no because he paints his hairline way too much

My boy Warren McClendon, yes. It would be tough for Rob Havenstein to regain his job given how terrific the former has been, so he's likely the presumed started. My other boy Justin Dedich will sit in favor of Kevin Dotson when the latter returns, given that the latter is possibly one of the best RGs out there. So current was meant to be taken as literally as possible.

Miami

Mike McDaniel is still the Head Coach in Miami. Unless us firing Harbaugh is going to make a team suddenly fire their guy to go all in on Harbaugh or something like that. I remember @Simba mentioning that if Lamar had left a couple years ago, we were going to go after Baker. I think Tampa would be the perfect spot for John, Harbaugh then gets to work with Baker in Tampa with that talented team they already have. Plus it's a soft division, and even then Atlanta would also work for Harbaugh. Harbaugh will likely chase the big money from the Giants but I think he'd be better off in Tampa or Atlanta.

It depends on how many more years he wants to coach.

Someone posted something saying the owner of Miami is infatuated with Harbaugh or something like that
