    If "turning Joe loose" means becoming a pass happy team that reduces Rice's carries, then I don't think it will work. Flacco will turn the ball over in key situations. IMO, the problem with Cam wasn't that he wasn't calling enough passing plays, it was that he was calling way too many slow developing plays. I wanted to see more passing plays that had Flacco getting rid of the ball faster. More screens, slants, and motion plays. Basically, incorporating a bunch of plays from the Patriots offense. Doing so, would hide some of the deficiencies in the Ravens OL. The offense still needs to go through Ray Rice though IMO.

    His contract extension was just through this year. He was most likely done at the end of the season anyway. Why not use the last 4 games to give Caldwell a shot at getting the job next season?

    Supposedly some players are not happy with the move. Of course those are "anonymous" players being quoted. I wouldn't be surprised if the move came from Steve himself.

    Not sure about your theory piece, but the opinion piece is 100% right on imo.

    I agree. Some people, apparently including Cam, seem to think Joe is incapable of throwing those types of passes. Or maybe he was so enamored with his big arm he only wanted Joe to throw sideline routes.

    Either way, we need to incorporate more varied passing into our scheme. I sure hope Caldwell implements these changes.

    Nothing really. Just talking about OL tendencies, etc.
