First off, sorry blue@orange. Leave the NHA out of it this time.

The Baltimore Ravens hired Philadelphia Eagles Special Teams Assistant Coach, John Harbaugh as head coach Friday Evening. Congratulations on a great find to Baltimore!

I have heard this guy's name pop up throughout the season, and I had su####ions that he might be promoted to Head Coach after Andy Reid. I thought that Reid would be out after this season, so the guy from that squad you want is Harbaugh. I did not think that he was that widely recognized around the NFL to be given a Head Coachign job that quickly. When you have your name up there next to Jason Garrett of the Cowboys, you know you are doing something right.

Personally, I was leaning towards Garrett. After he said no, I immediately thought of Ravens Defensive Coordinator, Rex Ryan, or perhaps Rob Ryan from the Oakland Raiders, after they fired him earlier this week.

I doubt that anyone besides the Ravens front office could honestly say that they saw this guy becoming their head coach.

There are now two open head coaching jobs: Washington and Atlanta. Here are my picks for the front-runners:

Atlanta

Rob Ryan, formerly Oakland Coordinator

Steve Spagnola, Giants Coordinator

Washington

Gregg Williams, Washington Coordinator

Steve Spurrier, Collegiate Coach of South Carolina

Give me your front-runners! Congrats to John Harbaugh!

Thanks for reading! Have a great weekend!
