Rumors Surrounding Cameron s Dismissal

The web is packed with swirling rumors behind the dismissal of the Ravens former offensive coordinator Cam Cameron yesterday.

As receiver media s job to try to get the inside scoop on potential issues behind a bold and dramatic move like this with three games remaining in these season.

And the media suredid its job

Steve Bisciotti s Involvement?

Bisciotti wanted to make the coaching change a week ago (ESPN Adam Schefter): I think there s been speculation around the league that the Baltimore Ravens were unhappy with the job that Cam Cameron was doing and that they could go ahead and make this move. There was some speculation and thought that Steve Bisciotti wanted thisdone about a week ago.

Harbaugh s response to Bisciotti s involvement: "I m not getting into any of that. We do a great job in this organization of communicating and talking, and we have great leadership here, all across the board, and I ll just leave it at that.

Bisciotti made the final call (WNST s Drew Forrester): is what I ve been told by folks with knowledge of it all and it goes all the way back to mid-season, when players started to air their frustrations with Cameron and the offense. The Ravens dropped an unthinkable game in Washington on Sunday afternoon. At some point on Sunday night, Bisciotti stepped in and said, essentially, Cam needs to go now. It must have been more demanding than that, because Harbaugh apparently didn t fight the owner on it, simply saying, Let s meet at the facility in the morning and decide where to go from here. The parties involved showed up again at the facility on Monday including Bisciotti and Cameron was gone by 9:00 am.

Forrester later continued: he Ravens decided their future is more about Joe Flacco than it is Cam Cameron. Faced with a potential $17 million franchise tag payment or a $25-$30 million signing bonus check, Steve Bisciotti is the man most interested in his quarterback s well-being. Yes, John Harbaugh is the coach of the team. But it s not HIS money that gets drawn out of that special account marked Funds for really good football players.
