Well, he got fired from the Ravens for not giving the ball to Ray Rice enough and letting the Super Bowl MVP air it out. Also, his offense just steamrolled the NFL playoffs, even if it was without him.

I believe the issue with Cameron and Flacco was that they were often at odds on how the offense was managed. I don't see how anyone can argue that he did not utilize Ray Rice. Cameron was the reason why Ray Rice became a star player with his physical limitations.

Man, that is not honest at all.. I don't know if you're just repeating what you heard, but that isn't factual.

Rice averaged 1 more carry per game with Caldwell.

They had to shake things up and he was in a pissing match with Flacco about playcalls.

He is one of the most respected OC's in the game. He has succeeded nearly everywhere he's been in charge of calling the plays.

It is a pro-style running offense that baits defenses with play action for deep strikes.

No. That's not why he was fired.

He called out Harbaugh in front of the team for going-get this-conservative at the end of the first half of his last game.

Harbaugh had no choice but to axe him if he wanted to retain the respect and authority he had in the locker-room. He's already said CC's getting a Super Bowl Ring. Not sure if CC will want it.

So no, he didn't get fired for schematic problems. He didn't get fired for playcalling problems. He got fired because he was mad someone was putting their foot on the brakes of his offense, piped up about it at the wrong time and had to get Fredo'd as a result.

John Harbaugh was a position coach on CC's Indiana staff. He also coached Jim Harbaugh at Michigan, where he was on staff alongside Les Miles.

Nice try, though.
