NFL - Billick fired by the Ravens - The Postgame Pub

Crono139 · 12-31-2007, 01:23 PM

The Ravens have fired Brian Billick, according to FoxSports.com's Jay Glazer.

Everyone knows what the defense is capable of, but they have never really had a consistent offense, even with all that talent.

they never really had an offense. People saw this coming weeks ago. He will fina a job somewhere, probably as a Defensive Coordinator

no surprise there . . . ravens definitely wasted no time, day after the last game of the season haha

this was a very bad firing in my opinion. the man brought a super bowl to baltimore for christ's sake. i blame the front office for this year's blunder, although the pat's game was billick's doing

Thank god they fired him. He has totally lost control of this team. There are reports now that Jason Garrett is the front runner for the job.

that'll bring them back into the post season. why offensive coordinator's are given coaching gig's i will never understand.

The supposed offensive guru couldn't put a decent offense together in all his time in Baltimore. He lost his team so this really had to be done.

Damn, I hope he doesn't leave Big D.

I am sort of surprised; I thought his job was considered "safe?"

Garret is not going anywhere. It has been all over the radio about him going to Atlanta and possibly the Ravens blah blah blah.. Jerry Jones has made it clear that he wants Garret here for when Wade Phillips is gone.

When Wade Phillips is gone?

Jesus, what does a man have to do to keep his job these days. There obviously isn't any talk of firing him, unless JJ has went clinically insane and I don't know about it, but with the improvements he made to the team this year he should be there for a LONG time. The defense did pretty good considering they had a lot of injuries to key players. Ware and Ellis/Spencer are IMHO the best OLB tandem in the league, and that is a direct reflection of what Phillips is doing with the defense. They are third in sacks, four more than the Chargers so obviously his more aggressive schemes are paying off. With this team's youth and talent, I think they can be a/the elite team in the NFC for years to come. The Packer's youth and talent make me very excited; it will be just like the 90s again except the AFC actually has competitive teams, much less better

I wouldn't mind Rex Ryan being the new head coach.

They fired Ryan along with the whole staff with Billick

Now that Jason Garrett is staying in Dallas. I think RR will be the head coach.
