 Now, this is probably my favorite candidate in the Ravens Hole offensive coordinator search so far. Let's just read the report straight from Adam Schefter. He said, chiefs, offensive coordinator, Eric Bieneme has been requested to interview for the Ravens offensive coordinator job per sources. Bieneme also remains under consideration for the coach head coach job that he has interviewed for and the Titans offensive coordinator job amongst other situations. So, I really like this. I seriously do. Reason being because, I mean, this is somebody I put in a request for the Ravens to request to interview, but this is the Ravens actually moving. So many times, whether it comes to players and now with this whole thing, we've heard it about coaches too. We hear, oh, Ravens are interested in such and such. Ravens are interested in that guy. Ravens are interested in him. Ravens are interested in that, but then we see a lack of action behind it or even a lack of closing. But this process, them starting like this and them actually putting in the request, like, hey, we're not just interested in Eric Bieneme like the report that we heard about a week ago. No, we're actually going to request to interview Eric Bieneme. So, this is another step in the right direction in my opinion for these Baltimore Ravens. Now, with Eric Bieneme, it doesn't stop there though. The report that followed that came from Ian Rappaport. He said, the commanders have yet to hire an offensive coordinator. And one reason why? They've requested permission to interview Chiefs Offensive Coordinator Eric Bieneme. And he's emerged as a potential key candidate. Sources say he also was requested by the Jets, the Titans and the Ravens for offensive coordinator jobs. So, Eric Bieneme is a hot commodity. And the game, well, the game today against the Bengals, this, not that it will make or break his chances really with anything, because it is just one game and we already see the resume of success that the Chiefs Offense has had. But the game against the Bengals could just, that could speed up the process and just make people's interest that much higher. So we'll see how that goes. And Bengals like, Bengals like the Ultimate Trolls, man. You gotta give it to them. They are the Ultimate Trolls, even with the mayor jumping in. And it's, oh yeah, I think Patrick Malone's, Joe Barone needs to take a DNA test to see if he's Patrick Malone's father. I said, whoa, whoa. But anyway, so Eric Bieneme, he is very hot out here. Now, while this is probably my favorite request for the Baltimore Raven so far, and it's just a request. It's not an official interview, but it is a start to actually be able to get an interview. I think this is actually the hardest person that it would be, that this person would be the hardest for them to actually land Eric Bieneme. Reason I say that, now one, the Ravens offensive coordinator job, if Lamar Jackson is going to be a Baltimore Raven, who knows, we'll see. Because we don't know yet. I know there's a lot of people who like, feel like that deal is going to get done. There's a lot of people who don't feel like the deal is going to get done. There's a lot of people that hope the deal gets done. There's a lot of people that hope, that doesn't hope the deal gets done. For those people that hope the deal doesn't get done. But anyway, we don't know what's going to happen with Lamar Jackson. So that is something that makes, not just landing Eric Bieneme, but really landing any offensive coordinator, that makes this very difficult because there's so much uncertainty. But even before that, with Eric Bieneme, he's obviously well sought after. But then on top of that too, on top of both of those things, this would be a lateral move. So with this being a lateral move, I think that that makes it that much more difficult to make it happen. Because it wouldn't just be a lateral move with the Ravens. I mean, you heard about the other teams that have been requesting to interview Eric Bieneme, also for offensive coordinator jobs. So with the uncertainty that the Ravens have, but also him being requested by several other teams for the same position, hey, the competition is there. It's there. Now, another thing too, on top of that, what happens if he gets requested for a head coach opportunity? Because yeah, being an offensive coordinator at another team, it could be cool. You could add to your resume and whatnot, but I'm sure he wants to be a head coach. Like if an opportunity comes along for him to actually be a head coach, you could be looking at all the offensive coordinator stuff. Oh yeah, yeah, that's cool. Yeah, that's nice. But oh, oh, head coach? Oh yeah, let me get on that. Let me talk to them. Let me see what they talking about. So that's something else that I think could be in the Baltimore Ravens way when it came to the possibility of bringing on one Eric Biennamy. Now, another thing, I always hear people say, they always say, oh, Eric Biennamy, he doesn't even call the plays, and Andy Reed calls the plays. Eric Biennamy doesn't even call the plays. So, and I see people try to make that like a bad thing for Eric Biennamy. When a QB coach gets hired to be offered, does a QB coach call plays? Unless I said something I don't know, but does a QB coach call plays? But there have been plenty of QB coaches that are requested to become offensive coordinators. But does a QB coach call plays? I don't think so. We always see them get requested to be offensive coordinator, but Eric Biennamy is an actual offensive coordinator. So he coordinates the offense. So I'm sure he knows the plays. He can call the plays. I'm sure he's even called plays before. He may even call some plays now. But like this notion, oh, Eric Biennamy, he doesn't even call the plays. It's like, come on now, like really. And I see that conversation among so many people. And I just like, that's not a reason for me to be like, oh, wait, no, okay, he doesn't, no. This would be the one that I would want the Ravens to hire. And again, it's, I feel like the chances are slim. Obviously not impossible, but they are slim. But it just depends on so many, so many factors. Now, well, one good thing about Eric Biennamy, if he is, if the Ravens could add him, I think it would be, and again, so much obviously depends on what happens with Lamar Jackson. Like so much depends on what happens with him, man. Like really every, the way that the Ravens move, moving forward, like this off season, everything depends on Lamar, everything does. Everything depends on Lamar Jackson. What's gonna happen with him? It's like, it's so crazy, man, thinking about it, man. Because the offensive coordinator, who's gonna be your offensive coordinator? That could have been on Lamar Jackson. How are you gonna move in the draft? That could depend on Lamar Jackson. How are you gonna move in free agency? That could depend on Lamar Jackson. Everything depends on what they're gonna do. Because, well, obviously, y'all know, he ain't got to explain it to y'all. But with Eric Biennamy, with him, and I mean with a lot of other guys as well, but with him especially, because it's been a year, and I don't know what it is. I don't know what it is, but it's been years where Eric Biennamy, every off season, his name comes up, or it's a possibility that he goes there, it's a possibility that he goes there, it's a possibility that he goes there. I remember last year, last year, his contract ran out with the Kansas City Chiefs, and I was like, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on now, there, buddy! But obviously, they had other plans. Now those other plans that they had didn't quite work themselves out, but there he is, it's all good, it's over with now. But every year, his name, it pops up. Maybe he'll go here, maybe he'll be a head coach there, maybe he interviewed there, maybe he likes it there, maybe he'll leave the Chiefs and go here. His name keeps popping up, but nothing has happened yet. Nothing has happened yet. Now, I don't know if it's been one of those cases where the team's just been like, no, Eric Biennamy, no thanks, but then you would have to think like, man, we've seen other offenses that have not been as good as a Chiefs offense, and we've seen them, and teams have hired other offensive guys that have less on their resume than one Eric Biennamy. So it will be weird. Or on the flip side too, maybe Eric Biennamy, it was one of those Eric DeCosta type of things. Well, maybe and not even necessarily him taking over as a head coach from Andy Reed. So maybe I shouldn't have said Eric DeCosta, but what I meant when I said that is that he could just be waiting for the right opportunity. Eric DeCosta was different because he already had the opportunity and he was just turning down whatever. He was going to interviews and stuff or whatever, but they had their plan with him taking over as a Ravens GM. They had that plan in place for a while, but with Eric Biennamy, he could be turning down these opportunities or possible opportunities because he's just waiting on the right one. And because you don't wanna just jump ship, just to jump ship. You don't wanna say, oh, I'm taking that job just to take that job, just to get away from the Chiefs. And I learned that, I learned that at my last job before we started doing this for a time. I learned that because before I would, before I had gotten my last promotion, the position that I was in, I hated it. I did not like it at all. And I would be applying to this job. I'll be applying to this department, that department, that department, that department, that department. So I would have, sometimes I would have interviews. Sometimes I wouldn't get an interview for these different departments. And I will never forget, there was one recruiter because the company that I worked for, they had a recruiting department. And it was their job to help find jobs for people within the company. So there's one recruiter. I appreciated her so much for this because I would have never known. She was like, she took the time to speak with me, get to know me, find out what was going on. And they can see everything. They can see everything. They can see all the jobs that you applied for from within, they can see all of that stuff. So she was like, man, you've really been applying for a lot of jobs. You've really been applying for a lot of different departments. She said, when, I was about to say when teams see that, when other teams, but when departments, when other departments see that, they're hiring managers and whatnot. When they see that you've been applying to so many different departments, it makes it look like, it doesn't even make it look like you want to work for their department, but it makes it more so look like you just want to get out of there. And I was like, oh man, well that's true, but I don't want it to look like that because she told me that that lessens their chances of even not even just hiring you, but even bringing you in for an interview in the first place. And I was like, oh, well that is something right there. Never thought of it like that. So she was like, you can continue to obviously apply to other departments or what, but slow it down. Take it down a notch. Because again, it's not a good look. If you just sending out your resume here, here, here, here, here, here, because it almost looks desperate, even though I was kind of desperate to get out. But with Eric B. Enemy, it could be with him, like he may not be so desperate to get out. And he may not, he may be like, you know what? The grass ain't necessarily gonna be greener if I go over here. Oh yeah, I see that organization over there and they ain't, nah, I ain't feeling them. I don't like the way they do business. Oh, I see that history. No, that's not a good fit for me. So he can take his time. Obviously he can take his time because he's still with KC. He's still with them. So this is wherever he chooses, man, I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a well thought out process. Now, if that just happens to be with the Baltimore Ravens, they're obviously well respected around the league, but I think if he could come to the Baltimore Ravens and really, and again, so much depends on Lamar Jackson. A lot depends on Lamar Jackson. I wonder, think about this too. For whoever the Ravens end up hiring as their next offensive coordinator, I wonder if, nah, I don't think they would, but I don't know, man. Again, everything depends on Lamar Jackson. I wonder if whoever they hire for their next offensive coordinator, if they would take a one year deal, or if they would want a one year deal. If they would be like, you know what, I don't wanna be stuck here, man. I don't know what's happening with y'all quarterback. And I don't wanna come into a situation and then everything, the whole script gets flipped on me. So anyway, but with every enemy, if he was to become an offensive coordinator for the Ravens and if Lamar Jackson stayed, or if Lamar Jackson didn't stay, and he still ran a successful offense, it'd be tough. But that could go good on his resume and possibly even provide him with another opportunity to be a head coach. Because he could go to, he could have been offensive coordinator to franchises and had success. And especially with the Ravens, like, whoever the offensive coordinator is next. And if they can, especially if they can get that passing game, right? The running game gonna be fine. But if they can get that passing game right, ooh. That would just look so great on their resume. Like this Baltimore Ravens team who always like top five, excuse me, in Russian, but they be at the bottom in passing. Or that passing just needs significant improvement. That passing game needs significant improvement. If they come out here and they get like 2,000 y'all receivers, not receiving tight ends, but receivers. And obviously still get Mark Andrews involved a lot that running game doing this thing. The offense is just, they moving. They scoring in the red zone, their red zone efficiency goes up. Just everything improves. Their situational play calling gets much better. That could just look so good on an offensive coordinator's resume, especially for the Ravens offense, because it's obviously been pointed out just how lackluster it's been. But with Airbnb specifically, maybe this could catapult him to a head coaching job possibly. And obviously it would all depend on what opportunities are out there. You don't wanna just jump at the first thing, but still. So anyway, I love y'all, team keeping clean. You know what? I really appreciate y'all for just everyday just listening to our thoughts on whatever's going on with this team. I appreciate it, cause y'all don't have to but y'all do, so I appreciate you supporting. Thank you. Enjoy the AFC and NFC championships. Gonna be some great games. Some really great games. I seen some people say, oh, well, since my team's not in it, that seems Ravens fans say it too. Oh, my Ravens ain't playing and I ain't watching. I'm like, I am, I don't know what you're gonna watch. That's fine, but I'm watching. I ain't gonna be like, you know what? The Ravens ain't in it too. They ain't turning on the TV. They ain't turning on football. No, I'm watching and I'm going to enjoy. So I hope y'all enjoy the games too. I know a lot of Ravens fans gonna be rooting for the Chiefs Heavy. Cause it's like, I mean, it's like a lose, lose anyway. I mean, Ravens ain't in the Super Bowl obviously. So that's already a loss. But then it's like, man, Chiefs will be back again. And this, if Chiefs win, that would be their third Super Bowl, right? Cause they beat the 49ers. They lost to the Bucks. And if they get there, now that'd be their third Super Bowl in what? Five, six years? Something like that. And then if the Bengals win, like, whoo, two Super Bowls in a, oh my God. But even the fact that they're in this position, they've passed the Ravens. I don't know Ravens fans don't like it. The Bengals have passed the Ravens. They've passed them. They are in the position. Two years straight. Two years straight to be playing in the Super Bowl. Two years straight. But anyway, so it's like, it's a little loop up for Bengals. Like they got bragging rights right now over the Ravens. They got it. They got, we can talk about injuries. Oh, what if and that, two years straight. Two years straight. So that's that. Anyway, I love y'all. I appreciate y'all and we out.
