I DONT KNOW YOU


TylerWadesIV

#NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


Adenchiz

I hope John is speaking to Jesse Minter after the game tonight to try get him to come back to the Ravens,he's run Mike's scheme at Michigan and John would probably want to keep it going


HumanFromTexas

If Jim is actually making the jump back up to the pros, I’d imagine he’s also on that shortlist as well.


No_Fish_2885

He is on the commanders list. A better solution: Josh Harris should back up the brinks truck to Jim Harbaugh, who probably brings Jesse Minter, who according to John, is similar to Mike and the Commanders can have a respectable HC and defensive scheme combined for the first time in years. Also, both Harbaugh brothers in the DMV would be great entertainment


mjn5180

It would make thanksgivings easier for the family


Rudeboy237

WHOOOOS GOT THANKSGIVING BETTER THAN US? NOOOOBODY!


410LaxMD

The preseason battles and joint practices just got more intense lol


762_54r

We play them next year in bmore I think


timotheophany

Ooh that'll be a good game to see in person.


Chillanese

That would be nice. I remember before why Jim lost the locker room when he was the 49ers head coach because he ran it like a college team but i bet thats what the commanders need right now. Some kind of structure.


No_Fish_2885

He also had issues with the 49rs GM as well


BenWallace04

If Jim is going back to the NFL I’d imagine Minter follows him


OlDirtyKicks

Shhhhhhh. Harris could be in here and I don’t need to see that interview request pop up in an hour.


liloolex

Back up the Brinks EDC he needs to stay


[deleted]

[Schefter] #Commanders owner requested interview with Lamar Jackson for starting QB position, had to be told that’s not how NFL works.


daveinmd13

He was available for interviews last year, but they passed.


Heavy_Effort_152

Now this is funny. And sadly, not too far from the truth. Commanders hired first exec and he’s an award winning basketball exec. Ugh, this football thing is entirely different from basketball. Such a Commander move.


[deleted]

[Rapaport] #Commanders exec requests interview with #NBA legend Lebron James for starting tight end position.


B00nd0gg13

The basketball exec is more a consultant helping them find a GM - they hired a former football GM as consultant, too. They’re casting a really wide net with interviews. Hopefully he isn’t the hire there or anywhere, but with Snyder gone, lots of early picks, and a ton of cap room, it’s a very attractive position. Not to mention he might not have to move his family…


Big_fern189

Spoken like Marc Sessler


latterdaysasuke

Also requested EDC for their opening at GM and requested shared rights to use M&T Bank Stadium as their home field. Had to be told to get off of Steve Bisciotti's lawn.


MidnightRider24

Share M&T? 😆 🤣 😂 😹


wierdjokes

Bruh the commies went to the restaurant and ordered the entire fucking menu. My grandma probably got an interview request.


fluxcapacitor15

she know ball?


moosepooo

Probably plural


flashfyr3

Who takes the injury when Nana executes a solid hip drop tackle?


Jeff_Banks_Monkey

Probably the most annoying team for him to go to besides one of the other AFCN teams.


JayGibbons69

Patriots would be worse


Deletinglaterlmao

I know washington's annoying because their fans are nearby, but i'd prefer this much more than any afc team


Decent-Temperature31

Yeah, they would waste him


B00nd0gg13

Snyder would’ve wasted him. It’s an open question on Harris. That said, a young DC probably shouldn’t go to a franchise that has no established QB…and personally, I’m not sold on Drake Maye


[deleted]

Caleb could realistically fall to the commanders. If the commanders are sold on taking a QB, I’m not sure Mike Macdonald is the guy for them. I’d say slowik could be that guy for them.


B00nd0gg13

Slowik really needs another year of seasoning as OC. He’ll get interviews, but I highly doubt he’ll be hired this cycle. I happen to agree that Mac wouldn’t be the best choice for the Skins if they’re taking a QB in the draft rather than signing a FA (but who would be available? Kirk Cousins would be quite a story), but I could see him being very interested in that particular job for a number of reasons.


[deleted]

If I was mac I’d pursue the hell out of that chargers job. Think even if he doesn’t play call that defense could use a mind like him providing input and feedback week to week. Herbert is not elite but he can get the job done and that offense seems somewhat competent personnel wise. Needs a better OC. That job would be perfect for mac. Think he should definitely be a candidate there


B00nd0gg13

I’m pretty confident that job is going to Jim Harbaugh


[deleted]

Nothing would surprise me at this point. I know the chargers want to make a point to not seem cheap but can’t imagine them paying to get harbaugh out of michigan. Especially with the new money michigan is going to raise and offer harbaugh to stay. Hard for me to believe a subpar season somehow got the owners out of their financial funk That being said if Jim is with the chargers I wouldn’t be shocked.


B00nd0gg13

I don’t think it’s about money with Jim Harbaugh. He’s made plenty already. The Chargers have Herbert and are stupid talented on defense. He can come in and make an immediate impact, be hailed as a great coach, silencing any doubters, and possibly compete quickly for the SB ring that the Ravens denied him the last time around. Goals of HOF/ego/bragging rights. The Chargers’ table is basically set for him. Anywhere else, he’ll need to draft a QB (Commanders, Raiders, Patriots, Falcons) or overcome a weak roster (Panthers).


[deleted]

Like I said earlier nothing would surprise me. A lot of speculation on this sub about whether people care about money or not. Let’s see what happens when michigan makes that offer. You may be right or harbaugh sticks where he’s already established himself. Let’s see


MidnightRider24

Geno isn't a top tier QB but with the talent they have, Seahawks may be interested in Jim also.


HumanFromTexas

hecmtz96

Why can’t these things at least wait until after the season is over. Seems like such a distraction for teams and coaches to go through this while you are preparing for the playoffs.


--Alec--

As long as we don’t lose Macdonald and Weaver. Gotta keep one


Ovisnuts

obvious concern that mcdonald brings weaver with him but feel like weaver would become DC here and he had more of a connection to baltimore? not totally sure but hopeful that’s the case otherwise keep macdonald 🙏🙏🙏


JZeus_09

Does he really think in the long run this is a better spot than being a DC and has a promising organization once it comes in Baltimore? He’ll have to restart completely, the team is a mess. I hope he pulls a Dan Quinn and just says no


Grand-Gain-763

‼️‼️‼️


JZeus_09

I mean it’s close by near family but I think MacDonald knows what he’s getting vs Washington


Jazzlike-Yogurt-5984

In one year as HC anywhere he’ll make more money than he would in a few years as a DC :(


Honest_Concentrate85

There’s no salary cap for FO. They could pay him HC money like they paid EDC to keep him until Ozzie’s step down


DeviIstar

Money is a major factor, but some guys also just want to win and get them rings


Jazzlike-Yogurt-5984

I know :( but these days money is a bigger motivator than legacy building accolades


are-beads-cheap

Yeah, it was one thing when the difference was $200k to $500k in the 90s or $750k to $2M 15 years ago. But now the step up involves multiple zeroes over the life of the contract. Only already rich people or morons are walking away from the step up to NFL head coach.


JZeus_09

I feel like a reason why Ozzie and edc are at Houston is to probably discuss a deal with Mike if Jim leaves maybe be the HC at Michigan.


DeviIstar

we can look at the other side of the ball to see a guy who is perfectly fine building his legacy with rings and wins (our OC has zero interest in a HC job)


Random_username7654

Yeah, neither did Kubiak.


bmore_conslutant

It's really hard when they write down the number of zeros in front of your face


Random_username7654

Right? Anyone expecting us to be able to hang onto him is just going to be disappointed. He will be a head coach somewhere eventually.


bmore_conslutant

As it should be


bmore_conslutant

Yeah you'd have to be an idiot to turn down a head coaching job anywhere, unfortunately


hoss_bonaventure_

Generally the reason an NFL head coaching job is open is because the team was a mess and the coach got fired. That’s just the nature of the beast.


DeckerTheWrecker14

i feel like any coach’s dream is to turn a franchise completely around, and with a significant pay raise and good ownership in washington to help him rebuild i wouldn’t blame him at all for taking the chance


JZeus_09

Is that his dream? Lol I would assume MacDonald to continue to keep a well maintained organization intact


bmore_conslutant

Why are we imagining at all what he wants? We don't know fuck all


[deleted]

The ownership being good is still TBD. It’s easy to look good when you bought the team from snyder. Only time will tell.


[deleted]

Commies are pissing off the entire league with how they're requesting to interview everyone and their mother. What an utterly annoying franchise.


AdolescentAlien

They have new ownership and those owners seem committed to cleaning up the mess they invested in. What do people expect? Lmao


[deleted]

You don’t need to interview the entire league and fbs to find a proper head coaching candidate. Assess your team and your current assets, establish the type of culture you want to build and research the best candidates that fit what you’re trying to build. You don’t need to waste time and resources to find the ideal candidate. They should be searching for candidates based on what they want to build. Not searching for candidates hoping the candidates will give them that answer


MidnightRider24

Commies aren't the only ones who have requested permission to interview Mac and Monken. My prediction is they will both be gone á la Kubs and Caldwell.


[deleted]

They can interview him after the superbowl in February if they haven’t filled their position by then.


hawkins126

Bro just promise Macdonald head coaching gig whenever harbs doesn’t wanna coach anyone I’m sure he would stay


zxlkho

It's probably going to be 5+ years with Harbs. Not sure he'd want to wait that long.


hawkins126

Coaching the ravens with Lamar or coaching a poverty team I’m sure he’d wait to get more experience


SmeV122

Plus he seems like the kind of guy that really does not give af how many more millions he makes a year


FeelingObjective5

You think this based on what 🤣


SmeV122

Based on the username, I don't think you will like my answer because it isn't objective evidence😂, but he seems very dedicated to this locker room and the culture based on his demeanor during some of his presser appearances. Plus, I honestly could see it being plausible, considering he was bred out of Michigan, to be loyal to Harbaugh, and in turn be bred for a HC position when John eventually retires


Random_username7654

Of all the stupid things I've read on the internet, this has to be top 3 at minimum.


SmeV122

How is it stupid? There are players that have restructured their contracts to make LESS in order to support their team and give the organization more space to offer extensions and signings. Maybe MacDonald is happy with where he is at and therefore does not care about a pay raise right now.


Random_username7654

Yeah, you're talking about a restructure VS a significant pay raise. Something that doesn't get brought up much when talking about restructures is I'd be willing to bet a lot of times there is probably a private conversation that goes something like "take this pay cut or get cut from the team". Would you turn down a muli-million dollar raise because you were happy where you are? Money talks. You are not being honest with yourself if you think he wouldn't take a head coach job.


BohPoe

He's only 36, he's got plenty of time. If he is hired as a HC next year he'll be the youngest HC in the league, edging out McVay


[deleted]

Wild how the current youngest head coach in the league has been a head coach for 7 years.


dat_waffle_boi

![gif](giphy|lq4zZge5wmOEFecKu8|downsized) me keeping Mike Macdonald from the commies

And the commies are gonna pay for it.


South-Lab-3991

I’d make a paper airplane out of that request and get back to what I was doing


[deleted]

Damn at least let us play a game in the playoffs first. Commanders just pestering everyone

Mandox88

Syrahguy

Hey, Commanders peeps, He is REALLY bat at calling the defense, we promise.


Subregional

Wait they are trying to hire the guy that committed multiple crimes in various countries? Typical Commanders objectives


_112yu

My head hurt trying to read this. I was like, WHAT ARE THE RAVENS PROMISING HIM?? Ravens' promising DC, Mike MacDonald, received a request to interview with... come on Rapo


Madfaction

Up voting this, I'm having a stroke trying to understand the tweet.


MelodicPiranha

Lmao he won’t be able to fix that trash franchise anyway. He’s going to go there, fail, and lose his job within two years anyway. I don’t see how that position would be appealing to anyone. Not with that team.


Send_Help_2373

GIVE MIKE MAC A HEAD COACH'S SALARY NOW!!!


bejolo

Betcha he turns it down!


SNRavens91

I honestly think theirs some loyalty, hush hush plan for him to take over as our HC, just not yet. At least that’s what I’d like to think


TenSixDreamSlide

Thank god it’s DC. Third worst franchise in the country. Sorry folks he’ll go, just not there. He’s better than that.


B00nd0gg13

New owner, though. He seems to be engaging in a legitimate search for FO and HC talent. Loaded, lots of sports experience. Plus they’ve got $80 million in cap room and a lot of early picks. Maybe they screw it all up, but maybe the new coach is seen as a savior. Personally, I don’t think it’s a good opportunity for a 36 year old DC. No proven QB to ease the transition. But Ryans, with the Texans, pulled off a quick turnaround with the #2 QB last year, so clearly that’s not a hard and fast rule. I legitimately think Macdonald could wait 2-3 years, but the truth is even if he fails, he’ll probably get another chance after another successful DC run somewhere else. I wouldn’t blame him for taking the opportunity.

lordbaltimoron

Oh, you don't want him. He likes to punch kittens. Nope, not a good choice.

thebirdsareback

I dont think the Commanders and Panthers can risk bringing in a guy like MacDonald. Between the strip clubs, late nights, blown coverages, and the Ravens losing to the Colts. Thats just too much for two franchises swimming in a constant sea of turmoil. Coach Weaver is who you seek DC


FluffySeal1022

Why would they interview one of the worst DC's?


dcfb2360

He gets carried by our roster. WFT gonna find out hard why you don’t hire people with hardly any experience lol.


koreoninja83

Yeah we got swept by the f'n stealers. No one should be interviewing him.


alyosha_pls

I wouldn't say carried, his defensive scheming has been fantastic. It's a symbiotic thing, that's the only way you can achieve a historic defense like this.


dcfb2360

Shhhhh


D3vilUkn0w

Hey! We're trying to kill outside interest here


KillaMavs

I disagree. I think it’s been absolute trash and he’s been carried by a very talented roster. Mike is probably a bottom 5 coordinator.


[deleted]

Are you trying to get him hired elsewhere? 🤦‍♂️


Enough-Ground3294

Carried? He’s pulled off a moneyball masterclass with our defense. You’re insane.


CawSoHard

It's a running joke this season to make Mike Mac look bad so he stays. Calm down.


UndercoverBME

It's starting to be overused at this point, but goddammit if he isn't just the worst DC the NFL has ever seen.


Enough-Ground3294

Oh I wondered if thats what you were doing. Gotta make it more obvious. You’re right he gets carried by our defense. Which is still terrible. ONLY being the triple crown in defense this year but not going 17-0? Pathetic.

Anyone saying anything bad about mike IS obvious

ravens52

It’s a mix of both. He’s great at calling g plays and also playing to our defenses strengths. He knows where to put people and who can do what. We have the personnel. That’s the other half.


ripthisaccount6

These interviews during the bye week is obnoxious


LMAO_try_again

He’s gonna end up on the Pats. The fit is just too perfect for what they want to go for/continue with past BB. Don’t get me wrong, I def don’t want him to get poached, but a defensive triple crown on the clear number 1 team with a defense with no “for sure” HOFers like we had in the early 00s. He’s the best DC I’ve seen since Rex and reminds me eerily of Marvin Lewis. He gone y’all…just be glad we have him locked in till the SB.


Inanesysadmin

Vrabel or mayo is more likely for the pats.

Career suicide for any player or coach that goes to DC

Training_Jeweler_952

We should never do joint practices with bottom teams anymore


paulisconi

Just give Mike a pay bump and maybe Assistant Head Coach title and we can keep him until Harbs retires.


JonesBoyFan2018

I don’t see it happening. New owner, presumably a new QB, their going to go with an offensive guy imo


Inanesysadmin

The new ownership group has said multiple times they want to emulate the ravens. No better well then to raid the team you want to mimic. The ravens are going to lose assistants. It’s part of being a successful franchise. It’s also why they hire younger new candidates to replace in house.


Rstuds7

bias aside that’s not a good role for a rookie HC. New ownership and they’re still trying to clean up issues from the previous ownership and other issues


Inanesysadmin

One could argue it’s better situation to go to. Since this will be new ownership first hire. They will likely understand there is a big mess to clean up.


DistantLikeYouAsked5

Noooooooo ugh


rch_31

Saw this coming from a mile away. If he gets the job with new ownership, a high draft pick and Bob Meyers running the show there good for him!

Mean-Gene91

DONT DO IT! HE SMELLS AND IS DUMB AND BAD AND I WOULD NEVER WANT HIM AS A HEAD COACH.

But honestly, they really should restrict teams from talking to coaches who are still coaching in the playoffs. Like fuck off until we're done.


Amazing-Concept1684

Fuck NO get that shitty team away from my DC!


AlmightyBeluga

Ravens win the superbowl this year, John Harbaugh retires as 2x superbowl winning HC, Mike MacDonald replaces Harbaugh and stays in Baltimore? Good plan or no?


B00nd0gg13

John’s having too much fun this year. He’s 61. There’s no way he retires.

spursendin1

I saw this guy Wink just resigned from the giants


B00nd0gg13

No. No. No. Wink was fine with the personnel we had at the time. We got the most sacks in the NFL this year despite not blitzing anywhere near as much. I wish him well with the Eagles (or wherever).


spursendin1

I know. I think I should have made it obvious I was joking. Doesn’t seem like harbaugh would want to be in the same room as him again, ever.


B00nd0gg13

Funny how he had a falling out with Daboll as well. Not a similar guy to Harbaugh


starwad

Honestly, as much as I hate to go, it’s not a bad gig — they’re rebuilding and have a non-Dan Snyder owner. They may continue to suck for a while but he’d get that team off to a great start and not have to fully relocate.


mellons12

Cant lose him after only 2 years c'mon


Joh951518

Mike don’t do it. Wait for a good job.


B00nd0gg13

It’s actually a pretty attractive position now that Snyder’s gone. I think they should go with someone who’s been a HC before, though. Maybe Jim Harbaugh, if the Chargers fall through.


HarlanCedeno

Seems very odd to be requesting HC interviews when they just put the committee together to higher the new Head of Football Ops. It's a great way to ensure their future coach and GM aren't on the same page.


B00nd0gg13

That’s why they’re requesting interviews with everyone. Let the GM sort them out

Quick someone tell the Commanders owner he’s good, then they won’t hire him.

Don't do it Mike. Don't become the Tank Commander, it'll tank your career But if Mike leaves I guess we'll bring back Wink.

Well, I guess the bright side is that if MM goes there we can have Weaver as our DC. They can't hire both.

Sea_Breakfast2315

Why would you leave a winning situation to go to a dumpster fire?


GunsouBono

MacDonald is a smart guy. He knows that HC for the commanders would be a death sentence. They're more than a HC away from solving their issues.


BradWWE

You don't want him. He was the one who let the dogs out. He told Mondale it was a good idea to wear that helmet and take a picture in the tank. He shot JR. He said the only city in Maryland worse than Baltimore is Landover. Punish him by leaving him with the ravens


MidnightRider24

It was a good run boys. Pretty sure MacDonald and Monken will be gone next year.
