Cameron to be new OC in B-more

ESPN - Source: Cameron agrees in principle to join Ravens' staff - NFL (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3210229)

"Former Miami Dolphins head coach Cam Cameron, dismissed after winning only one game in his only season with the club, has reached an agreement in principle to join the Baltimore Ravens' staff.

There remain some details to be addressed in Cameron's contract, a source close to the negotiations told ESPN.com on Wednesday morning, but there are no significant sticking points and the deal almost certainly will be finalized at some point later in the day.

Cameron, is expected to serve as offensive coordinator or assistant head coach under new Ravens head coach John Harbaugh, who on Saturday was introduced as the successor to Brian Billick.

Harbaugh was on the staff at Indiana in 1997, when Cameron was the Hoosiers' head coach and the two men have maintained a close relationship in ensuing years.

The addition of Cameron is the first major hire by Harbaugh, who may attempt to retain Rex Ryan as his defensive coordinator. Ryan has interviewed for three head coach vacancies, but it appears he will not land any of them, and he technically remains under contract to the Ravens.

Before his one season as the Dolphins' head coach, Cameron, 46, was the offensive coordinator for the San Diego Chargers for five seasons (2002-2006). He also served as the Washington Redskins' quarterbacks coach 1994-96, before taking the Indiana job in 1997."

Good luck with Kyle Boller and Steve Mcnair. I would start Troy Smith. He looked solid in his two or three starts.

Troy Smith looked good coming off the bench. I have to agree with you though and I think this makes some sense. Cameron had a good thing going in SD with Brees and Rivers. Now WM is no Tomlinson but he's something they can work with.

I would of loved having him been hired as our HC or OC. We'll see how much better Baltimore we'll get on offense and all of you who laughed at me will believe he's the real deal.

He may be the real deal as a coordinator, but he ain't the real deal as a HC. You can't argue that.

One year is not enough to judge someone by, look at Jimmy Johnson's first year. Miami had a lot of problems left behind by Saban, Parcells will clean house.

Cam Cameron isn't any better than anybody else. He's just another Norv Turner type guy.

I dont know about playing smith. A lot of QB's are good college quarter backs, and he may be one of them. He isnt very big and he doesnt have that great of an arm. Maybe they should pull some strings and draft/trade for a qb.

same was said of Brees and while he's no Tom Brady, he's done pretty well for himself.
