Re: Schefter: Caldwell to be Ravens QB coach
Caldwell came from the Colts air coryell so there shouldn't be any philosophical differences. The developent of Jim Sorgi and Curtis Painter tells me a lot about Caldwell's coaching acheivements.

Re: Schefter: Caldwell to be Ravens QB coach
This would be my one argument with what all youve said here. The line breaks down before he has time to make a decisive throw. Thats not always because of Joe, not always the line, and not always the scheme. Its usually a combination. Although Air Coryell will always put that extra strain on the OL to hold longer when the routes are all down field further. It takes time for them to develop and that is directly effected by the scheme we run. As long as we run Air Coryell i dont think our QB coach will have much ability to help in that aspect.

Re: Schefter: Caldwell to be Ravens QB coach
?
Wow. Ok.
You have to have some talent to work with. Most teams would have Sorgi and Painter as their 3rd string QB's. They aren't starters or even remotely close.
If you're not insinuating that, then ok, but that's what it sounds like you're doing. That because Caldwell couldn't turn Sorgi or Curtis Painter into quality starting QB's then he isn't a good coach.
Norv Turner is considered to be one of the better QB developers in the league. How'd he fare with Gus Frerotte? Heath Shuler?Disclaimer: The content posted is of my own opinion.

Re: Schefter: Caldwell to be Ravens QB coach
So, Caldwell spent a year in Tampa Bay before following Dungy to Indianapolis?

Re: Schefter: Caldwell to be Ravens QB coach
I like how people discredit Caldwell towards Manning's success, but they want to blame Sorgi/Painter sucking all on Caldwell. Funny how that works.

Re: Schefter: Caldwell to be Ravens QB coach
He did a decent job with Brad Johnson too. Johnson was a mess at the time.

Re: Schefter: Caldwell to be Ravens QB coach
What the Colts run looks like a a three WR set heavy version of what Cam runs, with more slants. When teams defend them with two high safeties, the Colts scheme does a good job of running slants and ins, to move the ball down the field at a slower pace, proving the two deep coverage ineffective. The safeties cheat and they hit you with either a stutter and go or slant and go.
They don't run a lot of complex plays. They are more situation-efficient. Manning wants to go deep. Everything they do sets up that opportunity. Cameron and Flacco want to go deep, but they don't do enough to set it up.
Caldwell has experience with Johnson, who was asked to not screw things up for everyone else, although Johnson and the Bucs didn't win the Super Bowl until after Dungy and Caldwell left. He has experience with Manning, who was asked to dominate."Please take with you this final sword, The Excellector. I am praying that your journey will be guided by the light", Leon Shore

Re: Schefter: Caldwell to be Ravens QB coach
Overall I like the hire. Caldwell's demeanor should fit great with Joe and I think he only develops with Jim here.
