Eagles interested in Urban

What about hiring Freddie Kitchens as QB coach to replace Urban if he leaves? Or Bobby Petrino?

The team is not going to react emotionally to the loss as many fans have and still continue to do, they aren't firing Roman FFS.

Make him assistant head coach and QB coach. Give him a raise. You can block then

Teams can block their coaches from ANY job below HC. Doesnt matter promotion, coordinator, whatevs: if it's not the head job, teams can block it.

That said -- tough to see Harbs blocking Urban from taking an OC position. That's such a huge rung on the ladder.

Completely false. The only one the Ravens can't deny is for Head Coach. They absolutely could deny permission for Urban to interview for a coordinator job.

Correct.
Correct.
Correct.

Anyone else see it as an indictment of our fucked-up world, that our white QB coach is generating more coordinator-job interest from outside, than our FAR MORE EXPERIENCED black Passing Game Coordinator? Who also coached in Philly, same time as Urban was there but a longer stint?

Anyone else see an issue with that?

I think I'm getting this right. I read that Hue Jackson said that in order for black coaches to get HC interviews they had to be either QB coach or OC. If that's true, yes, but it could be mostly job title related, which is still messed up but at least logical if they are only basing the interviews on title, but that's still screwy.
