BALTIMORE - Marc Trestman had options. So did John Harbaugh.Ultimately, they realized that the best choice for both would be Trestman spending the next stage of his coaching career as offensive co-ordinator of the Baltimore Ravens.Trestman was hired Tuesday, 22 days after being fired as coach of the Chicago Bears and just 24 hours after his only interview with Harbaugh.Harbaugh also met with former Denver Broncos offensive co-ordinator Adam Gase on Monday, but by then the Ravens coach pretty much knew Trestman was the ideal replacement for Gary Kubiak.The main thing was the fact that hes such a good fit for us moving forward, Harbaugh said Wednesday. His experience level, his background in this offence, he can take us exactly from where were at offensively, in terms of the terminology and the system thats in place, and build off of that. That was the determining factor.In his only year as Baltimores offensive co-ordinator, Kubiak produced an attack that set franchise records for points (409) and yardage (5,83. So after Kubiak opted to take the job as Denvers head coach, Harbaugh went looking for someone to take the offence to the next stage.Enter Trestman.This is going to be a good thing, Harbaugh said. There were good candidates available. We just moved quickly.Trestman, 59, lasted two years with Chicago. In his first season, the Bears were the second-highest scoring team in the NFL. This year, though, they went 5-11.That left Trestman without a job, but it quickly became apparent he wouldnt be idle for long. He was interviewed by Cleveland, Jacksonville and Oakland before choosing Baltimore as his final destination after meeting with Harbaugh.The bottom line is, we had a very good conversation. I felt a strong connection, Trestman said. I couldnt be more excited to be a Raven and to be working for and with John.Trestman and Kubiak have more in common than merely being former NFL head coaches.Gary and I come out of the same training ground in terms of learning what people know as the West Coast offence, so to speak, Trestman said.Under Kubiak, Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco put up career numbers in yards passing (3,986) and touchdown throws (27). He was also sacked only 19 times compared to 48 in 2013. As a result, Baltimore reached the second round of the playoffs following an 8-8 season.I had a chance to talk to Joe, and Joe is on board, Harbaugh said. He knows Marcs reputation. Personality wise, theyre going to hit it off very well because theyre both very smart, theyre both very detailed and theyre both direct in their communication.Trestman knows all about Flacco, who has never missed a start and was Super Bowl MVP following the 2012 season.Hes been extremely effective, Trestman said. Ive seen a courageous leader and a very tough guy.Trestman will receive aid from Marty Mornhinweg, who was hired as quarterbacks coach on Wednesday. He replaces Rick Dennison, who went to Denver with Kubiak.Im really looking forward to working with Marty, Trestman said. This is all going to be part of a formula to continue to play a high level offensively and continue to get better.Trestman is the Ravens fourth different offensive co-ordinator in four years, all of them former head coaches. He follows Cam Cameron, Jim Caldwell and Kubiak.I think thats an advantage, guys bringing that experience to the table, Harbaugh said. It helps in a lot of different ways, from perspective to a big-picture view of things.Before taking over in Chicago, Trestman was head coach with the Montreal Alouettes in the Canadian Football League. Before that, he was offensive co-ordinator for the Browns, San Francisco 49ers, Arizona Cardinals and Oakland.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP_NFL Brandon Weeden Jersey Retro .com) - The Dallas Mavericks had a five-game winning streak snapped last time out, but theyll try to get back into the winners circle Sunday evening when the Milwaukee Bucks pay a visit to American Airlines Center.

Rodrigo Taddei, Adem Ljajic and Gervinho scored to help Roma to its 24th league win of the season, matching the record by Luciano Spallettis side in 2007-08 and achieved again under Claudio Ranieri two years later. Giulio Migliaccio headed in a consolation for Atalanta. Roma moved provisionally five points behind Juventus, which visits Udinese on Monday. Ljajic had played just 25 minutes in the past six matches but the Serbia striker started, with Mattia Destro, Alessandro Florenzi and Miralem Pjanic all suspended. He hit the post as well as scoring and providing an assist. "I havent played a lot recently but thats football," Ljajic said. "The coach decides. Im always ready and once again I gave my utmost to help my teammates. It went well. "We gave an important sign today. We played well and we won. Well watch the game on Monday and hope for the best. Unfortunately it doesnt depend on us, it depends on them. Well do our part and well see." Atalanta remained in eighth place following a second successive defeat as it lost ground in the race for a Europa League place. Earlier, Sassuolo picked up a vital point in its fight against relegation as it drew 1-1 at home to fellow struggler Cagliari. Taddei gave Roma the lead in the 13th minute when Dodo hooked the ball back off the byline for Francesco Totti but it fell for the Brazilian, who fired in poowerfully from the edge of the box.dddddddddddd Totti was looking dangerous and went close several times to scoring the goal which would have seen him draw level with former Juventus star Alessandro Del Pieros 289 goals. The Italian World Cup winner provided Ljajic with Romas second goal with a delightful chip over the defence to Daniele De Rossi, who controlled the ball before cutting back for the Serbian. Atalanta almost got back into the game early in the second half but De Rossi blocked German Denis shot with goalkeeper Morgan De Sanctis grounded. Gervinho sealed the result shortly after the hour mark after being put through by Ljajic following a backheel flick by Totti. Ljajic also hit the right post in an impressive performance and he was applauded off the pitch when he was substituted three minutes from time. Atalanta pulled one back 12 minutes from time when Migliaccio powerfully headed Yohan Benalouanes cross into the bottom left corner. Cagliari had a new coach after Ivo Pulga replaced the sacked Diego Lopez but Sassuolo was full of confidence after last weeks surprise win at in-form Atalanta, and took the lead nine minutes from halftime. Simone Zaza escaped Cagliari defender Davide Astori to run onto Nicola Sansones through ball and fire in under the crossbar. Cagliari levelled when Luca Antei tripped Victor Ibarbo in the opening minute of the second half and Agim Ibraimi converted the resulting penalty. Sassuolo moved provisionally level on points with Livorno in the bottom three, two points off safety. It remained eight points behind Cagliari. ' ' '
