very intersting article. So This comes down to a simple question; Do we keep Cam? Why or Why not?

Cam was in charge of the offense, and had them scoring points, with AND without starters.
Dom Capers, oln the other hand, couldn't stop even the Bills offense with starters and without. Our defense is worst in the league and you want to fire our offensive guy?? YEAH OK! -
we've been scoring huh? Greg Camarillo had our first TD pass since the London game. Before that Gado had our only TDs since London
-
Field Goal or Touchdown, passing or rushing are points. No way around it, our defense cannot stop teams and that's not Cam's fault. That's Dom's fault. You win games in this league by preventing the other team from scoring while putting points up yourself. You can't win games by simply outscoring them, unless you're the Patriots.
I hope you guys are happy when Cam gets fired then we have a the same broken defense still not able to stop teams. -
It doesn't matter if Cameron is an offensive guy, he has to be held accountable for all aspects of the team. You can't run a team like the Redskins do, with several guys acting as head coaches. If Capers isn't doing a good job, he needs to fix it, whether it means changing his job or seeing to his termination.
Cameron did do good things, like utilize Brown, but that might be more of how bad our last coordinators were and not how good he is.
When our offense scores 31 on the Browns, they score 41. When our defense holds a Steelers team to 3, we get shut out, even though we were in field goal range twice. They were tough field goals, but if Feely makes half of those we go into overtime.
Parcells won't be keeping Cameron. Its well known. Cameron is auditioning for an offensive coordinator spot on another team at this point. -
You have to admit though, the Pittsburgh conditions were terrible. The field was literally falling apart, and raining. Conditions like that are always low scoring. If we do get rid of Cam though, we need to get rid of Dom too. He was ok when Saban was helping him with defense, but he simply cannot figure out a way to make our defense work at this point.
*EDIT and the only person who knows whether Cam will stay is Bill, and unless "league sources" are Bill himself, I wouldn't buy into that too much.Last edited: Dec 26, 2007 -

Maybe he fires cam. I kinda am hoping that happens. Then hoping we can have hm be our OC, for the departing Fairchild

(Ginn) I think everytime you see this young man return the football you going to being very excited. I haven't been excited in weeks! -
Keep Cam to keep the coaching staff consistent. That way we can be disappointed again next year...and the next...and so on. This team needs to be torn down and rebuilt from the ground up. No doubt about it. Hopefully the Tuna is the guy to make that happen. There is not a soul on the team or staff that should not be worried about his job next year.
JMHO, of course. -

Pretty much getting a massive downgrade in his career because of his poor showing here in Miami, like Mularkey.
But I agree with everything you said. -

If! Cam stays you can bet he WILL have an OC working for him. He signed on so late last year and it seemed by the time he hired staffers the good OC's were gone. I also think that IF he's here next year BP will have him dissect every decision he made during the year to evaluate his effectiveness and see if he can eliminate mistakes and improve for next year.:confused2:

I think you might see a tougher, more physical training camp, so maybe we don't have soooo many injuries.

Dom Capers should be far more afraid than Cam.
1) His unit has fallen from #4 overall to dead last
2) Jason Allen's turnaround is attributed to Cam Cameron's direct involvement, not the secondary coach's or the DC's. If it all took to turn him around was for a coach to sit down with the guy and clearly spell out to him what he needed to do why did it take a year and a half and the HC to do it?
3) Defence is Bill Parcell's forte, and I think Bill will want to get someone to install a Bill Parcell's style defence built on physical intimidation, not a Saban or Capers scheme based around executing complex schemes.
It won't surprise me if Cam goes or stays as there are good arguments both ways. I will be shocked if Dom Capers is retained. -
The simplest answer is probably the right one. JA got better because he finally got playing time. He didn't earn that time in practice, we were desparate. And he has played good, he hasn't turned into Sean Taylor (RIP) -
