It was the TD run when he bowled over half the secondary that got me onboard the Cam wagon.

My "what if" with Newton will always be what if his early development would have been trusted to someone like Norv Turner rather than Mike Shula.

The modern NFL offense more closely resembles a 2010 college offense than it does a 2010 NFL offense. The college game has been driving the innovation in the sport for the past couple decades.

45 Lions, Bears 14. I stopped watching the game partway through the 3rd. But apparently the Lions scored again lol

I think it would have been worse for Cam. He racked up 400 yards in each of the first two games, in part because (imo) the lockout hurt the defenses worse than the offenses. In fact, if memory serves, there were more 400 yard plus passing games in those first two games than for the entire rest of the season. Tom Brady had a 500 yard game.

Preseason three (at that time, the 'dress rehearsal' game) he looked horrible. Played great when it mattered though. These days,the college game just doesn't teach pro level skills like it once did. Makes it much harder to identify QB talent.

Yeah this and then cutting Renfrow, only to bring him back as a starter is only further confirmation that we need to clean house after the season. Only poverty, clown franchises do that.

Opposing defenses would've had full off-season too though. Given Cam's skill set coming in I honestly think that situation may have helped him. NFL defenses of that era just were not dialed in to defend the read option and RPOs. Nobody ran that stuff in the NFL.

Yes those are the hindsight correct choices. At the time it was all but a given that Young/Williams were going #1.

Yeah but we were picking #1 so our fate was and would have been filled. We would have passed on Daniels too

Looks like Seattle is going to beat the Steelers here

I still wonder what it would have been like in 2011 if Cam actually got to have mini camp and the full offseason instead of that bs lockout.

Just to be a contrarian, the other choices in either of those seasons would have been CJ Stroud and Jayden Daniels.

27 -10 L. Bryce 2 INTs. Post game reaction…

Tet Offensive with 2 TDs today.

I wanted Cam but it was only because of the relatively new rookie wage scale. I would've been much more apprehensive projecting him to the NFL without that cap space protection back in the days when you were paying top picks like surefire HOFers right out of the gate. With the rookie wage scale I thought he was the obvious pick given his massive upside. Mobile QBs no longer have as much stigma around them and Cam was a big part of changing that.

We pur in as much effort making thr game day thread as XL put in last week.

Skattebo with his 1st career score.

There's always good Italian beef sandwiches to help get over the losing.

That’s the sad truth.

Agreed. I think the Giants are actually fairly talented, but their coaching staff is not.

I hope Ben Johnson is enjoying Chicago

He also had a nice sack earlier.

I've been down on Bryce, but I think he looks okay in this game and the huddle will flop again.

Mac Jones 42 yard TD pass to Jawuan Jennings. Mac Jones is on fire today !! 3TD passes and 0 INTs and 253 yards passing!! 26 San Fran, 14 New Orleans
