Re: Coaching Change?
Well, I certainly hope that Harbs feels it is warranted - and I am not saying it is not - it is just that I would loose a ton of respect for Harbs if this is being done in response to external pressure! I would hope that Ozzie (in consultation with Harbs) feels a change, if it is coming, is in the best interests of the club.

Re: Coaching Change?
I just think the instant an opposing D saw both on the field they would be like "what the hell are they doing". Cam must think that would be too easy to confuse a D. Just run that sideline route again, that will trick 'em. They'll never see that coming. I mean - who runs the same play all game? It's brilliant. In bizarro world.

Re: Coaching Change?
Guys if its a major change like it is everyone is making it seem to be the last thing that will happen is the actual news get leaked before the Ravens want it leaked. They are VERY good at keeping coaching and front office moves quiet until they want the info out. Other teams are terrible and the news leaks hours before the team wants it to.
I think we hear something at harbs pres conf unless they issue a press release before. They wont let this leak.
THe only rumors that leak and are true are regarding players and those leaks come from player sources and not team sources as the team is good at staying quiet till the last min.

Re: Coaching Change?
They will line up in a single back formation and motion Rice to the outside to empty the backfield once or twice a game. Problem is, defenses watch tape, they've seen that and know it means the Ravens are looking to match Rice up on a LB and get the ball to him quick. Defenses adjusted and now it doesn't work anymore.
The whole point of going empty backfield is to set up a mismatch somewhere, make that the primary target, and hit it quick cause you know pressure is coming. They don't have enough variety or imagination in their playcalling to make that work.
While we're stargazing, another thing I'd like to see them do is line up in the I formation with Rice and Leach, Boldin tight to the left side, then motion Rice out wide. Now you have 3 wides against the defense's run package with Boldin in the slot. Rice is versatile enough to run a few routes as a de-facto wide receiver, AND you can still hand the ball off to Leach who has shown he's got some ball-carrying ability of his own. Leach can also stay in and pass block which he does well. That way, you're in the formation that keeps Leach on the field but still opens up the passing game.
