Coaching Carousel: Rex in effects

January 19th, 2008 by Stephen

Rex RyanJust because the Ravens hired a head coach doesn’t mean that the coaching carousel stops — or even slows down.  As Harbaugh fills out his staff, many questions remain.

Jamison Hensley of the Baltimore Sun is reporting that the Ravens are attempting to retain Rex Ryan as Defensive Coordinator for Harbaugh’s staff. Whispers around the Castle (okay, so it’s the worst kept secret) have Harbaugh tapping Eagles QB Coach Pat Shurmur as his Offensive Coordinator.

If you’re Rex — and had your professional career placed in limbo while being told you were out of the Ravens head coaching search — how do you react?

Well, the way I see it, he has two options if the Atlanta HC job doesn’t pan out:

  1. Tell Bisciotti and Cass to get bent; a job will eventually open up (coordinator or otherwise).
  2. Take the DC job with the Ravens, but make a Jason Garrett power play and cash in.

What would you do?

    I like Pat Shurmur as the OC. I wonder what his playbook would consist of. Also, Cam Cameron is in the running too. That’s Harbaugh’s first choice.

    If I’m Rex Ryan, I’d try to find a HC job in the NFL. If not, then return to the Ravens. He has no leverage, for the most part.

    Also, if Rex Ryan doesn’t comeback, Ron Rivera would be in the running for the DC job. Rivera is the linebackers coach for the Chargers. He was the DC of the Super Bowl losing Chicago Bears team. So he isn’t exactly a slouch.

    You can probably throw Brian Schottenheimer’s name in that hat of OC, especially with the hiring of Bill Callahan.
