Why Ravens are easily the best HC vacancy in football

1 hour ago 2

The Baltimore Ravens are on the lookout for a new head coach, and for most, it is one of the most attractive and sought-after head coaching positions in football.

Lamar Jackson, and several All-Pro weapons, plus a stable front office, everything is there.

Others thought the Buffalo Bills, but after that train wreck of a press conference with owner Terry Pegula and general manager Brandon Beane, that's a circus right now.

Still, The Athletic's Jeff Howe spoke with several executives and NFL personnel to get a gauge on the best head coaching job available

And while the Bills came in first on a points total, the Ravens could be first after that press conference debacle.

“Best overall organization,” a coach said of the teams with vacancies.

“Baltimore is the model of stability,” a team executive said.

Ravens still a top destination

With Lamar as the centerpiece, along with multiple top-liners, the Ravens are as good an opening as there is in football.

Will Buffalo's horror press conference hinder their ability to find a head coach? No, but it might hinder getting a top coach after seeing the owner effectively lay the blame at Sean McDermott's feet while giving Beane a free pass.

So, Baltimore might have moved ahead in the queue, with Los Angeles Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter the frontrunner for Ravens HC, according to various reports.

Either way, the Ravens are still one of the top vacancies in football, and you can make the case, the best one.
