Head Coach John Harbaugh left the door open to adding a quarterbacks coach for next season.



This past year, Offensive Coordinator Cam Cameron doubled as the quarterbacks coach, putting him in direct daily contact with signal caller Joe Flacco.

But there could be another person added to the process.

“I think we’ll see where all that goes down the road. I mean it’s a possibility,” Harbaugh said.

Cameron and Offensive Assistant Craig Ver Steeg were in the quarterbacks meeting room this past season after the Ravens parted ways with 2010 Quarterbacks Coach Jim Zorn, who moved on to Kansas City.

Harbaugh liked how that arrangement worked. Flacco threw for 3,610 yards and 20 touchdowns, won 13 games and showed his progress in a sparkling AFC championship performance.

“The way that it worked out last year on offense, to me, was tremendously successful,” he said. “[It] was the right move at the right time.

“I think the quarterback and the offensive coordinator need to really be of one mind; both relationally and football wise. Those guys being in the room together to me was a smashing success. I think that really helped Joe grow this offense, and it was a direct communication every single day, all day long with the offensive coordinator, the play caller and the guy who was building the offensive system.”

Whether that will be the best arrangement for next year, however, Harbaugh hasn’t decided yet. He said they are talking about that right now.

Harbaugh said Flacco will have a “tremendous amount” of input in the decision, along with Cameron. Harbaugh said “all options are open.”

On Friday, Cameron spoke about his relationship with Flacco.

“I’m fortunate,” he said. “I’ve known Joe longer than anybody here. We have a great relationship. Joe has grown so much in so many ways, not only as a player but a man. I say it every year, you see the greatness developing in this guy.

“We all want more stats out of Joe. We live in a fantasy football stat world, offensively. I understand where that comes from, but Joe has all the major bases covered at this point in his career. He’s right on track to where a lot of the great ones have been and that’s encouraging for us, our relationship.”

In regards to other coaching moves, the Ravens are in the process of figuring out who will replace Dean Pees, who was promoted from linebackers coach to defensive coordinator.

Harbaugh isn’t anticipating any other assistant coaches leaving his staff.

“Our guys have done a great job,” Harbaugh said. “You never know as things kind of shake out, but all of our guys are under contract right now, and we’re looking forward to having everybody back.”
