Re: No ring for Cam!
I think anybody that was on the team (or practice squad) for any significant time this season (more than a couple of weeks) is probably getting a ring. Yes, that includes Kindle.
Regarding Heap and Mason...as much as you would have liked to see them get a ring for all the years they put in with the Ravens, and all of their outstanding play, I just don't see it happening...what about Kelly Gregg, Jarrett Johnson?, etc., etc...and Chuck Pagano?, etc. etc....I think you have to limit it to the contributions made by members of the team this year. Period. But I could be wrong.....it is entirely up to Bisciotti and/or the team as to who gets recognized.
Lastly, I think folks are taking too much of a black-and-white perspective on Cam's contribution or lack thereof.
Did he "fail" and did his firing result in Flacco and the offense taking it to the next level? Yes.
But it was still his offense they were running...the major difference in my mind was that they were more agressive on first and second down, and more quick to make an adjustment when the original game-plan was not working.
And it was his offense that won them 9 games....and good-to-great offenses just don't happen by themselves, nor do good-to-great-to-elite-to-SB-winning QBs happen all by themselves. So I guess what I am saying is that while Cam didn't take them to the ultimate goal, he had more than ample opportunity to totally screw-up this year's offense and to make Flacco regress. Don't think so? Just go back to the offensive coordinators of the prior regime...or look around the league (yeah, I am looking at you Todd Haley).
For that, I think Cam gets offered a ring....if he wants it.Last edited by JohnBKistler; 02-07-2013 at 08:36 AM.

Re: Cam will get ring!
He will get one, and deserves it, but it will still be hard for him to brag about it or show it off.
Cam: Checkout my SB ring!
Peanut gallery: Nice! Is that the one where the team went on an epic tear as soon as they fired you?

Re: Cam will get ring!
Bisciotti always does the right thing.
CAM deserves it. Not all the Ravens wear their rings. Some put it in their trophy case
but CAM contributed to a lot of wins and he has a lot of pride.
