Cam Cameron Hatred

**RavenMaven52** · 06-07-2012, 08:44 PM

I am obviously new here so I just want to get a feel on what I have been reading here and on other (less cool) Ravens forums. There is an awful lot of negative Cam Cameron talk going on, and I'd like to know why? You guys realize he isn't the guy that drops passes right? Nor does he throw untimely picks. Flacco, Boldin, Housh, and Evans are not Cam Cameron. Just because you all don't think he is creative doesn't mean he isn't successful and good at what he does, nor does it mean he isn't creative. I actually think his pre snap shiftiness can be very creative. He has also run wildcat, double reverses, hb passes and many others. I know winning a Super Bowl would be great, and last year Cam did in fact call all the right plays to get us there. The players were the ones that dropped the ball last year and in years past, not Cameron. I'll be the first to say I don't always agree with his run/pass ratio, but he knows how to win games. That cannot be argued. Basically I think the play calling has been okay and the scheme is relatively good, but the execution has been lacking in key moments.

Anyway, can someone tell me how some random new O coordinator would be better than Cam? Because I don't necessarily think that person would be.

Oh boy.

Here we go again. I'm gonna kick back and watch this one play out.

You lost me at pre-snap shiftiness.

Just go back and find Greg Cosell's comments about how Cam's offense is a 40 year old dinosaur and how shocked he is to see it being used in the NFL. That's all you need to know

Ok thanks I'll check it out. But are we really the only team that runs this system?

Us and the Chargers.

There are some teams that run a more modern version, like the one that Mike Martz ran on multiple teams, but no team runs it the way Cam does. The Chargers and Raiders are probably the closest to the system Cam uses.
