OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh hopes to name a defensive coordinator soon.
By holding off on an announcement, the perception is Baltimore is waiting on a candidate outside the organization -- likely former Indianapolis Colts coach Chuck Pagano -- to decide whether he wants the job. The Ravens traditionally promote from within, but they could've named linebackers coach Don "Wink" Martindale this week if they wanted him to replace the retired Dean Pees.
At Thursday's season-ending press conference, Harbaugh said the priority for his defensive coordinator hire is continuity.
