[Blogs] Colts Hire Pagano As Head Coach

[55 ways to rush the passer]

Like we needed another reason to hate Indianapolis.

[Big G]

I thought I saw a Mayflower truck!

[jrs034]

now what to do about Cam

[TruRavenFan4ever]

what the heck, this is unbelievable, yes it's a great opportunity for chuck but why can't other freakin teams develop their on personell, they are always taking our coordinators, this blows big time, NEXT MAN UP, and cam get out of town.

[ashleemarie]

I guess now we know why Jim Irsay was being nice about the Ravens before. He planned to soften us up before he stole Pagano.

[Joe Flacco is #1]

I know who the new d cordinator is gona be :DDDD Rex after this past season come on back home boy >.

[bdog920]

Weeks after saying he was fine not being a head coach and he goes and stabs us in the back. I hope the colts got 0-16 next year and we win the super bowl. These are the type of people we dont want in the locker room. Good coach but he lied to the Ravens and the fans. Next man up or just give the job to Ray Lewis

[TruRavenFan4ever]

Cam must go, s.b. make that move.

[Marc Eaton]

Dear Chuck, thanks for what you did for us.......PS can you use a Offensive coordinator there?

[truss12truss]

i could be wrong, but i see a contract coming down the line for cam. i can't see the ravens organization trying to replace both dc, and oc in the same year. this sucks!

[TruRavenFan4ever]

Ray Lewis as our DC, awesome

[SuperBowlDreamin]

So, has anyone caught on yet? These teams think they can recreate the havoc without the talent. Sadly, I cannot root for Chuck Pagano now. I will continue to root for Indy to lose. If he loses for two years, will they give him a third? All these dynamite Coordinators had Ray Lewis when they were here.

[higgins2052]

either LB coach would do a good job

Now we need a new offensive and defensive coordinator!

Could do with a new special teams coordinator too after their performance this year

[barrystrassler]

Will Pagano succeed with the Colts? Lewis, Nolan and Ryan were not wildly successful with their respective head coaching stints. Either Pees or Brooks will be as successful the as defensive coordinator as Pagano was.

[IdahoRaven]

He could have at least waited for the wound of the loss to the Patsies to heal over! Man this roller coaster ride needs to end for one week.

[CharmCityRaven]

Well this is off the NBC sports site, might make actually wonder if Cam will really return next season.....

Come 2012, the elder statesmen of offensive coordinators in the AFC North could be Jay Gruden of the Bengals.

The Browns don%u2019t have one, though they reportedly plan to hire a coordinator in order to reduce the workload on coach Pat Shurmur. The Steelers have fired/retired/not rehired Bruce Arians. And, according to Chris Mortensen of ESPN, Ravens offensive coordinator Cam Cameron could be on his way out of Baltimore.

Per Mort, Cameron%u2019s contract is expiring after the season, with no new offer on the table. It%u2019s well known that tension exists between Cameron and quarterback Joe Flacco, who bristled publicly last year when quarterbacks coach Jim Zorn was fired.

An obvious candidate to replace Cameron would be former Vikings coach Brad Childress, given that Childress and Ravens coach John Harbaugh spent several years together as colleagues with the Eagles. Then again, there%u2019s a chance that Harbaugh knows from his experience with Chilly in Philly that it would be a programmatic non-fit.

UPDATE 1:15 p.m. ET: An even more obvious candidate would be former Raiders coach Hue Jackson, who served as Flacco%u2019s position coach in 2008 and 2009, before joining Oakland as offensive coordinator.

[RavensScientist]

good luck! Chunk. We love you. just one request, don't take good players here to indy, please

[RavensCanada]

It's disappointing to see our one good co-ordinator leave and still be stuck with Cam Cameron.

[jrs034]

wonder if you can hire Raheem Morris even though he just got into a new contract with the Redskins

[jrs034]

@RavensCanada were not stuck with Cam his contract is up and hopefully they can hire Hue Jackson

[scrock]

The next guy just needs to keep it going, get after the QB and TACKLE

[ravens7575]

I can't believe some of the comments here. We all knew Pagano was top quality head coaching material and knew this was coming. It's a bummer though... I loved Chuck and wish him success (unless he plays us, of course).

[WestCoastRaven20]

We have an amazing organization. We're one of the few franchises to have good impact players leave for better opportunities or bigger roles and Assistant Coaches or Cordinators to leave and become Head Coaches and still remain Championship Contenders year in and year out. BALTIMORE RAVENS are a CLASS A organizition

[ravne05]

Boy was I wrong on this one I did not think he had a chance.

[TruRavenFan4ever]

What a different team we will be next year, hopw its for the. Better. In front office we trust.

[ravensfan2001]

love pagano but didn't he say he wanted to saty with the ravens for a year or two i am sick of these coordinators mattison one year coach pagano one year coach rex was the only coach who stuck it out for more than a year or two but i am not worried as long as ray is there the next DC will be fine but i would want a more agressive offensive coordinator i am super excited about the offseason dont get me wrong super bummed about not playing in super bowl but now its all in ozzies hands

[riseNConquer81]

the NFL (&^%)#^$@^&)@ hates us. its official. we cant win anything right now...
Best season in a decade and it ends like this... (-_____-)

[ravensfan2001]

@jrs034 good point never thought about that

[RavenRampage]

Dang, this one stings
