The Flock Rundown

In today's episode of The Flock Rundown, we react to a shocking development in the AFC North as former Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken is named head coach of the Cleveland Browns — meaning the Ravens will now face him twice every season.

We break down what this move means for Baltimore, how Monken knows this Ravens roster better than anyone, and how the AFC North power dynamics may be shifting. We also dive into the league-wide coaching shakeup, including which offensive coordinator candidates the Ravens are interviewing and which names are still available.

Plus, we take a closer look at the Ravens' evolving coaching staff:

• Dwayne Ledford joining as offensive line coach and run game coordinator
• The decision to keep Tyler Santucci on the defensive staff
• A full breakdown of where the Ravens coaching staff stands right now

A lot is happening in Baltimore — and around the division — and it could have major implications for the Ravens moving forward.

In this episode of The Flock Rundown, we break down the Baltimore Ravens hiring Mike Mickens as their new defensive backs coach and why this move matters. We dive into Mickens' background at Notre Dame and his strong connection with new head coach Jesse Minter, and how this could shape the Ravens' secondary moving forward.

We also discuss the Ravens interviewing Joe Cullen for their vacant defensive coordinator position and what that signals about the direction of the defense. Plus, we take a look at the remaining offensive coordinator options and why clarity on the full coaching staff could be coming very soon.

We get into more staff members heading to New York to join John Harbaugh, why it's notable that Dennard Wilsonwas chosen over Zach Orr as DC, and what that decision could mean long-term.

To wrap things up, we congratulate Mike Macdonald on reaching the Super Bowl and share his high praise for Jesse Minter — a strong endorsement as Baltimore turns the page and builds its next era.

We also react to Diana Russini's report that Anthony Weaver remains firmly in the mix, plus new insight that Lamar Jackson and several players have interest in Kliff Kingsbury as offensive coordinator.

On top of that, we cover major league-wide coaching news, including:

In this episode of The Flock Rundown, we break down the full list of head coach candidates the Ravens have interviewed so far — and the additional interviews scheduled for this week. Baltimore is casting a wide net, lining up roughly 14–15 candidates across a two-week stretch, which tells you just how serious this reset really is.

We dive into which names stand out, what each candidate brings to the table, and why two specific interviews this week are especially intriguing when viewed together.

We also address a weekend report claiming owner Steve Bisciotti fired John Harbaugh over the phone after leaving the facility — a detail that adds even more weight to this moment. With Bisciotti set to speak publicly for the first time in years, all eyes are on his press conference as he looks to explain the decision, reset the narrative, and outline where the Ravens are headed next.
