Talk about it: Ravens hire John Harbaugh
Share your thoughts on the Ravens' hiring of John Harbaugh.
JH will be fine please stop all the worrying. As long as he listens to #52 and Dick Cass before speaking to the press and choosing players before the upcoming draft, he'll be ok.

I have been impressed by Coach Harbaugh's energy and enthusiasm He seems to be a great motivator and communicator, which should have a positive impact on the Ravens team and fans.

I think he will do a very good job with this group, but I feel the expectation are very high with the players and fans. This is a group of players who are good enough to win the division next year. 13-3 was only a year ago, anything less then playoffs is a failure in many people's minds.

Possible Ravens coaching candidates
Billick fired
Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti shocked his team as well as Ravens fans yesterday by firing Brian Billick, the coach who brought a Super Bowl title to this football-hungry town.
Mike Preston: In end, Billick couldn't overcome offensive struggles
The Ravens' Brian Billick became like the emperor with no clothes on, with his greatest weaknesses as a head coach becoming exposed more and more every year.
David Steele: Bisciotti should take chance, put Ryan in charge
Rex Ryan should be hired as the Ravens' next coach before he gets away.
Brian Billick: In his words
"Why would that be? This is the National Football League, whatever their circumstances are. A loss is a loss." -- December 2007, when asked if losing to the previously winless Miami Dolphins was tougher than other losses
The fans' take on Billick's firing
"I think it was an unjust firing. You have to look at his entire body of work as opposed to this season. I think it was a knee-jerk reaction." -- TEDD BODNER, GLEN BURNIE
The Players React
Players' reaction to Billick firing: 'A tough time'
