Well he did a great job coaching up Flacco to be an elite NFL quarterback.

Caldwell might take Ravens secondary coach Teryl Austin with him as DC.

They should bring back Matt Millen as GM if this is who they're going to hire as HC

Do you think he'll be fired in two years or three?  Also the rest of the league is pissed because their go-to Rooney rule coach is gone.  You're up Leslie Frazier!

I don't think I've ever been more confident in a coach's ineptitude than I am with Jim Caldwell. I've never seen him look anything but terrified and confused on the sidelines.

Another reason we needed to keep Rex. The list of guys available and getting hired so far is pretty far from impressive.
So it turns out, Italian Seafood was right an everyone can go freak themselves.

If they fired Rex, I would rather see Brian Schottenheimer then  Jim Caldwell, I think he would be more "successful".

What the freak are you guys talking about? He almost went 16-0 and won the Super Bowl in his rookie year. Great hire!
