Baltimore Ravens zero in on Jason Garrett
While Cowboys fans may not be happy about the Giants surprising win this weekend in Big D, Ravens fans may have gotten exactly what they were hoping for. Jason Garrett, the Cowboys OC and this year’s hottest head coaching candidate, is heading to Baltimore for a second interview. Garrett, who is also considering a 2nd interview in Atlanta, appears to be the odds on favorite, particularly now that Marty Schottenheimer has officially closed the door on interviewing.
Thus far, the Ravens have interviewed five candidates:
- Jim Caldwell, Assistant Head Coach/WR Coach (Indianapolis)
- John Harbaugh, Secondary Coach (Philadelphia)
- Rex Ryan, Defensive Coordinator (Baltimore)
- Brian Schottenheimer, Offensive Coordinator (New York Jets)
- Tony Sparano, Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Line Coach (Dallas)
The Cowboys could be the fly in the ointment here, particularly if Jerry Jones wants to keep Garrett badly enough. Recall, Garrett was hired by Jones BEFORE Wade Phillips, and was given the ethereal title of “either offensive coordinator OR head coach.” If Jones thinks Garrett is the real deal, he may have to do something drastic in order to keep him in the fold.
