Isn't it funny how this stuff always seems to "fall into place" for the NFL's "preferred" teams

#32

While the Ravens may end up hiring a high quality Offensive Coordinator,   there's two related concerns that Ozzie Newsome and John Harbaugh have to deal with:

 

1.  The Ravens could lose one or more Assistant Coaches to the Lions.  Reportedly,  Jim Caldwell is targeting Ravens DB Coach Teryl Austin to be the Lions new Defensive Coordinator.  In seeing the great progress of Ravens CB Jimmy Smith,  losing Austin could prove significant for the Ravens if this indeed happens.

 

2.   It remains to be seen how well the Ravens new Offensive Coordinator fits with the returning coaches on the Ravens staff.   Already,  Wilbert Montgomery was fired as RB Coach and Juan Castillo,  the team's running game Coordinator,   is becoming their Offensive Line Coach.

 

In fairness to all of the 2013 Ravens Offensive Coaches,  the Offensive Unit was hit hard by injuries,  the salary cap situation that led to the Ravens trading WR Anquan Boldin to the 49ers for only a 6th round pick,  and the underachievement of LT Bryant McKinnie.   Then when Eugene Monroe replaced McKinnie at LT after the trade with the Jaguars,  there was a major learning curve for Monroe in the Ravens Offense.
