How about a coordinator overhaul?
Jerry Rosenburg excempt. Although I wanted him gone last year, he's done fine so far this year. Pees and Cam (especially you, Cam) need to come up with something better. They are holding us back.

[RavensWin09]

22 times vs cincy, 6 times last week. that says it all harbaugh. what are you talking about? stop defending your horrible coordinator.

[kash96ravenstotalfan]

In the first game I thought that Cam had finally decided to make a game plan that Joe was actually comfortable in - the "no huddle/hurry huddle". Then we didn't see it so much in week two. I don't understand Cam's logic. Why won't he game plan with Joe's strengths in mind? Case in point, look at how the Redskins are playin to RG III's strengths. Also, why didn;t they give the ball to Rice in the second half when Joe was obviously struggling? I just don't understand how we game plan, but I am just a stupid, devoted fan - so what do I know? L0oking forward to next game with the Pats at home. Hope we get the game plan right for this game. GO RAVENS!

Just like last year, the death of us will not be lack of talent, lack of leadership, lack of work ethic, or even a lack of good strategies - it will be inability of this team, especially the offensive side of the ball, to establish an identity and stick with it. You want to be a no-huddle fast paced offense, fine, but stick with it. You want to have a dynamic running game, great, but stick with it. Good teams try as much as possible to do what they're best at, even if it plays somewhat into the hands of the defense. But in Philly, they were GIVING us the run, and we didn't take advantage despite having one of the best backs in the game and some backups who I think can be pretty special in their own right.

If Flacco was hurt to the point where he couldn't throw well (which I think he was), then it's up to the COACHES to recognize this and switch to a strategy that doesn't rely on him, like say, giving the ball to your stud running back.

@display name... gave you a neg by accident, sorry about that

I agree 100% and really believe Cam should be fired. 3rd and 1 and he calls pass with Ray Rice and Leach at his disposal ? What the blank is that ? He's a blanking idiot !

[btfan2]

Is it me?? Our coaches always seem to have some stupid excuse for everything. Harbs you coached at that stadium for how many years??? You didn't think to make it known communicating would be a problem?? OR were we flying by the seat of our pants which seems to happen a whole lot, then when things go south - here comes the lame excuses.

People may hate on Belicheck but; he wins and wins because of attention to detail.
The season has started and 150% of your focus and your coaches focus should be on preparation, preparation, preparation.

I think Harbaugh and his staff are just a little to comfortable...... hey I'm just saying.

[Heubs]

Cam needs to go. Drew Brees was pretty average in Cam's offense. Crowd noise is no excuse abandon the no huddle. Touchdowns kill crowd noise.

[EpicRavensfan2!]

I blame our coaching staff... pees did a pretty bad job... Cameron again does a bad job..... fire cameron and Make Caldwell the O.c...

[EpicRavensfan2!]

Cameron is scared of success.

[display name]

Caldwell for OC, Ray Lewis for DC.
Who's with me?

[RaVeNsNaTiOn20]

YES!! That's what led to the slump. We had a nice pace and mixture with Ray Rice and Vonta Leach in the first half. Then it disapeared. If that's what you wanted....we have a problem.

[RavensWin09]

displayname ray lewis as DC is really scary to think about in a good way but i just don't see it.

@ Cam Cameron:

Don't forget to pack a warm coat for the trip to New England this weekend.

[RavensWin09]

you're right. drew brees didn't explode until he got out of that crap scheme and joe will too IF cam ever leaves. he knows we are the only team that will give him a chance and he still feels some sense of security or something. i don't get it.

[Purple Dawg 96]

That bad call with Jacoby is making everyone kick up some Negative Dust and Point fingers! That play would of put the game away! The no huddle did dissapear slightly but, I hope its here to stay! The Ravens are still getting the bugs out and looking pretty good to me! You cant judge a team until week 4 or 5 anyway! The only bad things Im hearing about the Ravens is Here! My squeeler friends couldnt say nothing! And their game started at 4 something but, they were at the spot at 1pm with me!

[outkast1]

Pees just can,t coach that number 1 defense! Well Cam is what we think he is?

[ravenstonyd]

We play here not New England what a stupid comment.

[CorvusCorax]

3rd and 1? Buckle up your straps folks 'cause we're sending this one deep. Nevermind we have potentially the best RB tandem in football. SMH

[ravensfan1986]

Remember, the Giants lost 7 games but went on to win the Super Bowl. No sense in putting a lot of stock in one loss.

[Crabcakes&Football]

Harbspeak for SSDSeason? Did sticking with the no-huddle just make too much sense? Our opponents took our game and beat us over the head with it.

[killaflacco]

The only part of the play calling I was mad about is the fact we didnt no huddle more and put the offense in Joes hands.I feel just as comfortable with Flacco throwing the ball to our loaded receiving corp as I do with Rice running it,so I dont care if we decided to throw it on 3rd and short.We shouldve spread them out with 3 wrs and our 2 tes throughout the game.We have the ability t create so many mismatches.We should start taking advantage of that.

[BillicksEGO]

Of course Harbs will say that we were running the pace we wanted....What's he gonna say, that they screwed up, and should have run more no-huddle? I don't care what you run, when you stare down receivers then throw to them while guys are draped all over them, or just totally overthrow guys.....I know it's Cams fault, yadayadayayada....Flacco should have said nothing except this one was on him period!!

Lol you're right.... All of us see it and understand it but harbs is on the sideline and doesn't. Ozzy has to be concerned.

[Raven8]

they are worry about crowd noise; we are playing on the road of course there will be crowed noise. if that's what keeping us from running the no huddle that's just sad. the no huddle is our offence we have to run it no matter what look we get from the defense all we have to do is balance between the run and pass and know when to run the ball i don't think cam understands that part yet.

[notorious ravenfan]

i could care less if we ran QB sneaks all game as long as we get into the ends zone. all this up tempo no huddle only works if you can get constant first downs and points.

[breden16]

the only thing i didnt like was the way cam used the personnel. I saw a number of times we had 3 wide sets but the three receivers flanked were pitta boldin and t smith. Boldin was in the slot with t. smith next to him and pitta was on the other side. When cam does that hes matching pitta against a corner which besides the size difference its not a good match up. We need to get pitta matched up against linebackers and i think if we go three wide it should be jacoby jones on the outside not pitta. imo i think its time to move on from cam and just promote caldwell which is one of the reasons i believe we brought him in

[Balmere Boy]

Flacco is talented but inconsistent. He's always been talented but inconsistent. He will always be ...etc.

That's my take. If he plays great one week he has some metal hangup about doiung it again. he even looks likea different guy in the next game, hangdog, and interior. It's almost like he won't allow himself to be great.

He needs a shrink or SSRI's...

You either have no wit, sense of humor or lack both. And that goes for the other four that gave a neg as well. It was a joke that went completely over your head(s).

[BillicksEGO]

Flaccos game stats..22/42 232 5.5 1 1 2-18 24.6 Yes, the 24.6 is his QB rating. And Joe feels he can blame the refs? Wow, at least Cundiff was a stand up guy.
