Update: He's hired per Gantt:

Offensive line coach John Matsko not out of a job long. Fired by Baltimore, he was hired by Panthers Thursday.

John Matsko, who was fired as #Ravens O-line coach today, is interviewing with #Panthers tomorrow, a source said

The Ravens fired offensive line coach John Matsko on Wednesday, two league sources said.

Matsko coached the offensive line for the past three seasons. The offensive line struggled this season, one of the reasons why the Ravens dropped to No. 14 in the NFL in rushing.

The Ravens are expected to promote Andy Moeller, who was the assistant offensive line coach.

According to the source, Matsko is interviewing with the Carolina Panthers on Thursday.

looks like some even-minded folks on this ravens message board (knew somebody was going to post the link)

http://boards.baltimoreravens.com/topic/33141-john-matsko-fired/

partly thinking he's a scapegoat for inconsistent line play, partly thinking he's the scapegoat for too many injuries, partly thinking it's a move to serve notice to cam cameron.

cameron is a real nfl vet, can't see firing one of his coaches to serve notice to the guy. might just be one of those things?

So why did they fire him? Other than somebody has to take the blame for something.

Probably because the line had a bad year this year...

The Ravens allowed 40 sacks during the regular season and struggled to protect quarterback Joe Flacco in the playoffs.

Mostly due to injuries on the line. Before this year, Baltimore's like was pretty good the previous 2 years.

Yeah, this guy is the one I'm most skeptical of. 40 sacks isn't something that sits well with me personally. Gotta read some more on him. Could be a steal though.....

You have to remember, also, that Gaither was hurt for a while.

      Well if you are gonna put it like that I probably would have to agree with you.  We’ll see how it goes. I am kind of rooting for seeing some Picket this year just for a change up. I root for a change up every year though lately.

      OK honestly I don’t identify like that but if I did I would think about being the first raised on TV generation (bad), we were probably latch key/before the term was invented - because I was raised by a single working parent, stuff like that. No baby sitters until after dark. Afternoons you just waited for an adult to show up. We were the bussing generation where they tried out their social engineering and forcing the races together in school (good and bad in that), and definitely the first bunch to have to deal with the threat of the big bomb going off. I, like everybody else was taken out in the hallway at school and taught how to and where to sit and receive my radiation dose if someone nuked us. And then they killed our president right in front of us. That is probably the most destabilizing thing that gets the least attention. The atomic bomb and the potus killing.  Around t(e same time we had the Beatles and music becoming a youth thing, with the youth gaining economic power they still have today, and top it off with a good memory of childhood - all tne Coke bottle caps had pictures of NFL players in them. We collected them. I particularly remember Mick Tinglehoff Minnesota Vikings lol. Complete with flattop haircut. We had pro football before there was ever a super bowl and in those days baseball was the king of sports in the US.But football was coming for them. And soccer was what weird funny talking foreigners did lol.

      When Kenny Pickett's arm looks noticably zippier than your starting QB you know problems are ahead.
