Very good hire. Trestman knows talent. When he went to Chicago he drafted 2 O linemen to correct one of The Bears' most glaring problems. Then he went on to make a good QB out of Josh McCown. Trestman's biggest attribute is that he knows talent a valuable asset when we need to restock the O line.

He can't cover or tackle. What else is there? He's a bust so far.

Kaepernick is so good he won sb47 if aint for bad call

Don't you mean the no call on the hold that gave Frank Gore a touchdown?

Did you see Montana the other day...  He was VERY upset about Manning breaking records....  Talking about how he and Brady have always been protected, and play a completely different game...  and that there was a time with QB's were football players....  Some still are.  There are a chosen few that are vastly protected.

Seems the NFL doesn't care about AFC North QBs. Flacco, sprained MCL and double spear to the jaw, no call. Big Ben Roethlisberger, broken nose, no call. Yep, I do indeed believe some are protected.

Great hire which is true to John Harbaugh's form. Again hired a former head coach with a great resume for leading an offense. Best man available for the job. I don't think for a minute, now that Coach has made his decision, that Biscotti had his hand in this. Kubiak gives us exactly what John Harbaugh said he was looking for.

I don't like any of the 4 candidates mentioned. Harbaugh is good at picking talented coaches. Not always the best but often is the case that the coach he chooses has been very successful in his field previously. I was unaware of Jim Caldwell's success at developing a tremendous passing attack in the college ranks until he got the job in Detroit. Unfortunately for Caldwell we had such a horrendous O line this past season He really couldn't get anything going however his ability was showcased in our Superbowl run. Harbuagh is right in wanting to develop a balanced attack. Only that will reestablish the Ravens in post season. Harbaugh will probably look to the college ranks. Also look to shore up the offensive line!

Certainly Harbaugh will bring in an offensive coordinator that is his pick and not a high profile guy brought in just to save his own neck. Agreed Kubiak and the rest would be good but they may look at it this way. "I'm coming in to save your neck. You are on the hot seat and you want me to save your career." Kyle Shanahan worked under Kubiak and may have some of the same skills but reports are that he is a spoiled brat. He's not a Raven. I feel strongly that Coach Harbaugh will look to the college ranks for who we need. I don't know of any at the moment as my knowledge there, as in many cases with pro sports, but I'm sure many of you learned fans have some great suggestions. Let's get it going and see who we can come up with!

Game over! Call Hue's agent.

Slightly different situation though - Hue was fired after the 2011 season, which is the season after Jim Zorn was fired because Cam didn't like him getting too close with Joe.  I don't really recall any bad blood between Harbs and Hue - I think the reality of the situation was Cam wanted to go it alone as long as he could - and the way I understand it, hiring Caldwell was a decision influenced heavily by Steve Biscotti.  I really don't see any reason to suspect a rift between Harbs and Hue, not hiring him back doesn't necessarily mean anything.

Hope not. If Cincinnati loses today then Harbs can talk to Hue who happens to be my #1 choice for OC.

Yep, it's Harbaugh who didn't like him.

Harbaugh is the one who hired Hue Jackson. Hue accepted a promotion in Oakland as an OC then to head coach. When Hue was fired Harbaugh didn't hire him back. I guess that could lead one to believe he didn't like Hue.

relax everybody ,,, Cadwell only had a 1 year contract so whether you like him or not,, he is GONE,,, I  would love to get            MR NORV TURNER(wanted him last year) plus I think a head coaching job may a long time away ... I hear  talk of hue he may be good but after that oakland fiasco (trade for carson along with his proclamation) , well idk .My  2 and 3 is chud and kubiak . Lastly mr pees will not go anywhere this year maybe next year,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 

What Oakland fiasco? Hue Jackson ran a rag tag bunch of misfits picked by a run down old owner to 6th best in the league. Look at his body of work with the Bengals then Falcons, Ravens for the 2 years he was here, the Raiduhs then again for the Bengals. He traded a few maybes for a proven veteran. I will not give up on Hue Jackson. Best OC in the NFL.

No to Kubiak because his offense is all based on the run game. Once the run game is gone, then it's downhill from there.

 

Kyle Shanahan is someone I would look into since he knows the ZBS, but he's also bringing in the WCO, which is not part of Flacco's strength.

 

Hue Jackson... Ravens need to pull the trigger on this guy since he can work magic on the team like he did with the Bengals Running Game.

 

Send Jim Caldwell back to QB Coach!

I agree on Kubiak. He had a great offensive line with Elway and Terrell Davis behind it. He went to Huston where he again had all the moving parts. When the parts went away so did his effectiveness. I am the biggest Hue Jackson fan on earth. Hue is a true genius of offense. he can make a silk purse out of a sow"s ear on offense. Look at our offense the first 2 years he was here. Best time of possession in the league, rookie QB taking us to the AFC championship, Ray Rice the most yards from scrimmage in the league and in one game 2 of our running backs scored on 70 yard running plays against Dallas. Hue Jackson was just our QB coach at the time but he had much influence in the offensive scheme. Everywhere He's coached that offense excelled. My hat is in the ring for Hue Jackson. It is an absolute crime he isn't running an offense or head coaching somewhere in this league.

 Mike Martz will get Flacco killed  and he doesn't used tight ends in his offense as much as the ravens like to .

You brought up a good point. I remember J.T. OSullivan in San Fran was nick named J.T. OSmelling Salts.

I thought Chud will be interesting  as well but he likes the vertical offense and im not sure if that's whats best for our offense as  a whole. The ravens basicly already run a vertical offense  or should I say  the Air Corydell

If they want to go with an Air Coryell system then Mike Martz is the best choice for that.

I'm still hoping we hire Hue Jackson as OC but Kubiak will do fine. We certainly need an offensive strategy that the players believe in.
