Cole Added to Pro Bowl Roster; Harbaugh to Coach Ravens?

    Trent Cole notched career-highs with 70 tackles, 12.5 sacks, and 4 forced fumbles.  Now he’s getting what he deserves. Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reported today that defensive end Trent Cole will be added to the NFC Pro Bowl roster.  Cole replaces Seahawks star Patrick Kerney, who will be going under the knife instead of playing in the NFL’s version of backyard football.  Cole should have easily been voted into the Bowl in the first place over Osi Umenyiora. 6 of Umenyiora’s 13 sacks came in that disastrous September 30th game against the Eagles.  Cole was a much more consistent force over the season, and should be in the Pro Bowl in years to come.

Also, KFFL among other news sources reports that the front-runner for the Ravens head coaching job, Cowboys offensive coordinator Jason Garrett, has signed a huge contract to remain in Dallas.  Speculation is that Eagles defensive backs coach John Harbaugh will now receive top consideration for the job.  The Ravens are expected to bring Harbaugh and Marty Shottenheimer in for second interviews.  It would be great for Harbaugh to get this job.  While Harbaugh is a fantastic special teams coach, his first year as defensive backs coach has appeared to have left something to be desired.  Harbaugh’s departure would be a great opportunity to bring in some new blood.
