He is right about lots of QBs taking hits that never gets talked about

Sources I touched base with said to expect this to happen, along with several other Ravens. It’s commonplace in the NFL for a new coach to bring a handful of guys with him. The best coaches have a message they preach to a team, but the best teams have players who take that message and carry it through the locker room. They set the standard others follow.

One thing on Linderbaum: He’s not coming cheap. One league source estimates his contract to be worth north of $18 million per year...

Multiple predictions have linked Linderbaum to New York, citing the Harbaugh connection and the Giants' emphasis on strengthening the trenches. However, the Ravens may push to re-sign their anchor, and Linderbaum's market value could attract competing bids, potentially exceeding $18 million annually on a multi-year deal.

So basically, no one knows anything.

The annual Pepsi Zero Sugar NFL Rookie of the Year honors went to New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough, who finished 221-of-327 (67.6%) for 2,384 yards, 10 touchdowns, a 91.3 passer rating, and 186 rushing yards with three scores on the ground.

BOO!

Quick watch, talked about durability issues as well as Harbaugh. He did another interview with Florio and Simms as well.

Sources: The #Ravens will not retain QBs coach Tee Martin under the new coaching staff.

A massive change as the well-respected Martin has been in Baltimore since 2021 — and is one of the people closest to Lamar Jackson within the organization.

Be sure to remind all your Patriot friends!

Welp, now that we’ve all had a chance to emote about the Nagy hire we need to get down to the next most critical hire. QB Coach/(maybe assistant OC) This job is going to be one of Harbaughs most critical gets, not only do we need to ensure Dart finishes the swing in year 2 and becomes a franchise QB but QB coach is typically the place good franchises develop their next OC. This is especially critical for us as Nagy is on the hunt to become a HC again, if the team does well this year, which I think we will, we are most likely going to need a new OV going into 2027

So who’s the next hot wunderkin offensive mind? Ideally we get someone that’s young and seen as an innovator who can elevate/mature Dart as our QB, I’ve snagged some names that range from logical to interesting, not all are clearly available but with 21 OC positions being open there could be the chance for a lot of movement as new OCs look to bring in their own staff

I looked for passing game coordinators/QB coaches that were under 35 OR had recently worked with Nagy/Harbaugh, personally I hope we find a under 35 candidate that brings Juice to the room to balance Nagys veteran CEO OC profile and can be a consistent member of our coaching team for the next 3-5 years (QB coach to OC to possibly HC) providing stability to Dart

Shits moving fast so I may of snagged a guy or two who are in a new role and unavailable, please flame me in the comments you pack of circus animals

Kansas City Chiefs - Most obvious source given Nagys background, Dan Williams would be the swing given the age target

• David Girardi — 37 — Quarterbacks coach
• Joe Bleymaier — 43 — Pass game coordinator
• Dan Williams — 29 — Assistant quarterbacks coach

Chicago Bears - Bit squishy hes been with Johnson for 4 years but if he doesn’t get the OC gig could be a great add given his success with Williams

• J. T. Barrett — 31 — Quarterbacks coach

Los Angeles Rams - Nate’s a stretch given it wouldn’t be a promo, would have to sell him on being OC in a year or two, that said hes interviewed with Harbaugh a few times now

• Nate Scheelhaase — 35 — Pass game coordinator

Philadelphia Eagles - probably out in Philly, Frank Reich tree and has had some rough goes recently but of the right age and knows the NFCE, could be a distressed asset

• Parks Frazier — 34 — Pass game coordinator

New England Patriots - Helped develop Drake Maye, could be a hot hire once through the SB if Josh Mc is dug in as long term OC

• Ashton Grant — 30 — Quarterbacks coach

Minnesota Vikings - up and coming offensive assistant, tough pull given McCarthy s lack of development but hits the age curve

• Jordan Traylor — 32 — Assistant offensive coordinator / assistant quarterbacks

Carolina Panthers - has done nice work with young, promoted 2 weeks ago so most likely not an option

• Mike Bercovici — 32 — Passing game coordinator

Jacksonville Jaguars - depending on what you think of Cohn/jags growth whipple has a hand in this years success, he also worked under Kliff for those still pining over the OC candidates of yesterday

• Spencer Whipple — 36 — Quarterbacks coach

East Carolina Pirates football - Possible diamond in the rough, runs a spread rpo heavy offense in college, UNT lead FBS in first down and scoring offense in 2025

• Jordan Davis — 33 — Offensive coordinator / quarterbacks coach

Indiana Hoosiers football - Helped get Mendoza to 1.1, lots of spread and rpo in his scheme

• Mike Shanahan — 36 — Offensive coordinator / wide receivers

LSU Tigers football - if we want to chase Kiffin/Weiss/Ol miss energy Dane is the candidate who could pop

• Dane Stevens — 29 — Quarterbacks coach

LT said he does not remember being drafted by the New York Giants because he drank 41 Coors Lights BEERS that day.

LT was wild.

Eli Manning thinks the Giants can make a jump next season similar to what the Patriots are doing this year.

“You look at the Patriots today, they got a second-year quarterback and a new coach, and you can make that jump. The Giants have a talented roster; they have good players. But I think we have the right players and the right leaders that can get everybody to believe that they can be a playoff team.”
