As I previously reported, contrary to other reports, the Ravens retain Ryan's coordinator rights and can block a lateral move. They appear to be doing that. The sides may reach an agreement, but Ravens ownership badly wants to keep Ryan, who the players love. Fassel and Ryan spoke as recently as last night sources said and Ryan interviewed with Snyder Sunday night, according to sources.

Zorn, as we were the first to report, interviewed for the offensive coordinator job. He is set to depart around 5:40 and if all goes well he would be the leading candidate to replace Al Saunders (with whatever fancy title they want to use).

Everyone is waiting to hammer the contract details out but barring a last second change of heart, disaster, whatever, this is how it's shaping up."

THis is going to cost us dearly. Good thing we stock up on draft picks (heavy sarcasm)

I simply do not understand our fanbase anymore...
In years we had everything figured out and thought we were concrete GUARENTEED to go 11-5, 12-4, etc... we go 6-10 or 7-9 and fall on our faces.

LET'S PLEASE WAIT AND SEE!!! If JF becomes Coach Fassell to us - so be it, IT IS WHAT IT IS! He has my supports, should have yours and I will bet the mortgage if we started 3-0 you would ALL be all over his johnson... (so to speak).

The earth will still rotate after this is announced, if it is - someone will still die of hunger, babies will continue to be born and deaths will happen... life moves on, the Redskins move on and you too Fan's should show your belief in this franchise and move on.

HAIL!!!

Best statement of this thread!

It is impossible to replace a HOF Coach with anything nearly identical.

(There are no other Active HOF Coaches!)

Hail!

It has very little to do with "Coach Fossil". Many of us think he sucks, sure, but there are just as many other options who maybe don't suck as much, or even at all, who I also don't want.

Don't confuse resentment and disappointment with the direction of the franchise ownership with any issue over an individual coach or assistant.
