Source: Ravens To Fire Cavanaugh After Season
Baltimore Ravens offensive coor-dinator Matt Cavanaugh will be fired after the season, a highly placed team source with knowledge of the situation confirmed Wednesday night. The Ravens rank 31st in the 32-team NFL in total offense, and Cavanaugh has become a target for criticism on talk radio, Internet message boards and newspaper columns. The team source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, cited the team’s offensive struggles since Cavanaugh became the coordinator in 1999 as the primary reason behind the decision. Under Cavanaugh, the Ravens have never ranked higher than 14th in total offense. The source also cited the intense public pressure Cavanaugh has fallen under as a contributing factor. Ravens coach Brian Billick would have to sign off on Cavanaugh’s departure be-cause Billick’s contract grants him the power to hire and fire his assistant coaches. Several Raven officials have refuted this story as of press time.

That's pretty weak. Their QB sucks and their best RB and their best WR (Heap) have been hurt this year.
Isnt Brian Billick supposed to be an offensive genius? Seems pretty unfair to blame it all on Cavanaugh.
