This catch makes me feel at ease.

"Hey Cam. We're getting rid of Smith, LaFell, Ginn and Hixon."

Good to see a Panther's receiver catching his QB high ball like all the receivers on those so called elite teams. To be competitive, you've got to give your team weapons that they can compete with.

 

True. 

 

I love how people (even Panther fans) love to point out Cam's high balls, as if it's something unique to him. 

 

Just watch the Sunday ticket and red zone every weekend, or even the Playoff's. QB's all over the league (elite, good, bad, indifferent) throw high and under thrown balls all the time, but they're caught on the regular, so no one mentions it or cares.

High throws are in the footwork, and a lot of big qbs tend to have questionable footwork. A big running qb is the most dangerous combination because he is using his feet for potentially 2 purposes.  Cam throws high when he is pressured a lot or is in that zone where he thinks he may have to bail.  To correct the problem may lead to more sacks (in my opinion).  However, I think his accuracy issues are documented and not the norm around the NFL.

 

Cam had more bad first halves due to this problem.  He was getting the defense's best during the first half and he was often forcing the issue.  However, since our defense was holding the opposition to three and outs, he was able to get more chances and the opposing defenses started tiring in the fourth quarter--the same problem that afflicted us during RR's first years-our Defense gave out late in games.

 

That is how we won with the 28th ranked offense in the league.  Take away Cam's runs and we really were not effective on the ground or through the air.  I do not blame Cam for this, however, I blame injuries on the offensive line and our pathetic WRs, who struggled to get open and hold onto the ball when they did.

Not sure what you mean by this line (bold). But I don't think Cam is any more in-accurate than most QB's around the league (especially for his tenure). If anything, he may be in the more accurate bunch, throwing to small and not so talented receivers since in the league.

 

You know how many QB's get bailed for their high, short and near off the field passes on the regular every weekend (which gets dropped, tipped, missed or intercepted by Panther receivers)? Doesn't matter why it happens (pressure, footwork, etc.) They throw bad passes on the regular, and their receivers bail them out on the regular This is why I'm sure Gettlemen gutted the entire WR group. They sucked, and did Cam no favors (leaving aside the offensive line, and how Cam had to adjust/make due with the pass rush, and it's effects on his throwing). 

 

Bottome Line: Anyone who watches other teams play on the regular KNOW, that all QB's throw high balls and bad ball numerous times during a game (for a multiplicity of reasons, having to do with the QB, Line, and Receiver). I think Cam is singled out here, quite honestly cause most Huddler's appear dumb, insular and oblivious to what happens in the rest of the league!! 

 

Give Cam protection and better receivers, and watch the magic. He's already demonstrated this, when the line and his receivers (first year) were better.

    • I had started typing my post hours ago and didn’t finish it and just came back to finish it, posted it, then saw yours and saw we were pretty much saying the same thing - even the games that stick out to us most.  I don’t think a lot of people remember that SF playoff game, but I felt like I had just got mugged in broad daylight.  I remember them calling Mitchell for unnecessary roughness, and then I remember watching Boldin take a super late cheap shot, dead in front of the ref and then showing him watching the whole thing in replay…  the refs let them have a fuging field day and didn’t do jack poo, but if we so much as breathed the wrong way it was fuging 15 yards.  Each team playing under two completely different sets of rules.  poo hurt.  I was enraged.  I’ve never went back to watch either that game or SB50 and never will.  fuging robbery.
    • I’ve said it a million times since, but it’s impossible to keep them from affecting the game.  In SB50, they literally took the game from us, and they did it early.  Cotchery’s no-catch?  The miraculous amount of times we converted for a first down only to have it suddenly called back make it a 3rd down and 15+ against the best defense in the league that specialized in rushing the passer and man coverage on the back end?  And you do that enough times, you kill the morale and confidence of the team you’re doing it against.  It’s telling the one team “you can do whatever with impunity” and the other “you can’t do whatever they’re allowed to do.”  It changes the aggression level.  It essentially neuters one team and allows the other to do whatever the fug they want.  Imagine you call the police for help and they get there and tell you to sit still while the other party beats the poo out of you and you can’t defend yourself.  That’s what the officials do.  There is no way to avoid them affecting the game.  And more often than not, it’s the most subjective calls they use to do so.  Even in SB50…  you saw the Broncos commit more egregious penalties than anything we did, and barely any of it was called.  Their OL was holding all fuging game and the refs did nothing.  We already had our work cut out for us against two future HOF edge rushers and the refs played to their advantage with that.  From what I remember, both Oher and Remmers were called for holding at various times and their hands were in the INSIDE of the defender.  It was garbage, but all by design. Also, if there is any video of it anywhere, go look at what the refs did against us back in 2013 against SF.  The fix was in there too.  They stepped in early and often and ensured we knew we were not allowed to play with the same aggression or intensity SF was.  It was disgusting as well. at this point, I hope Vince McMahon, errr, I mean Goodell just finally scripts us to win it, because this poo is not won via competition or off merit.
    • You can go back to the New York Knicks somehow getting Patrick Ewing.  I saw a story where they place the New York Knick card in the freezer right before the drawing.  It was simple.  Show everyone the cards are undetectable to the human eye.  All they had to do was grab the coldest card. IMO ever since Goodell took over the NFL it has been fishy.  Patriots winning the SB after 9/11, New Orleans after Katrina and Peyton Manning's going away gift against us. The terrible calls during that game were blatantly one sided.  New England should have been stripped of their first 3 SB when they were caught spying on the other team in their SB wins.  I think the evidence against the Patriots was so damning Goodell felt it could ruin football and they brushed it under the table.   In the 2004 SB, How did we go from practically no yards in the first Quarter to setting a record in the 3rd Qtr.  Dan Henning changes the game plan.  IMO probably the greatest half time adjustment of all time.
