And the offensive line. They have to at least get in the way of somebody.

 

 

lol

 

He thinks Cam needs to stay in the pocket more, have less run plays designed for him considering how he's getting beat up. Can't be a runner and throw the ball surgically too when he needs to. Nothing new. He says that Cam is asked to do it all.

 

He & Sharpe pick Carolina to win. Billick picks Atlanta.

I understand what  Michael Robinson is saying but, #1 Cam is just not accurate enough to be a pure pocket passer QB. #2 For the Panthers to move the ball on the ground, Cam has to be able to run the ball a lot. Neither of these choices are good ones,so thiis limits the teams options for success.

 

Well, we know that isn't the problem. Or at least the way to for sure solve our offense's problems. Robinson's been playing the last few years, not analyzing so he doesn't have history. Because he would know that Cam has done that and did it well and there's more than meets the eye for him to have these problems now.

 

I did love his statement about the oline though. Almost as if he was pleading for them to do something. :D

And he's exactly right. Been saying it forever and we all got a taste of it at the beginning of the year. Cam wasn't flashy and didn't get the stats for his fanboys but our offense clicked and was very effective. Real Panther fans don't give a poo about his individual stats. Problem is our coaches are too stupid. They need to gain yards rushing with stewy instead of running Cam. We have an expensive backfield yet plays are called for Cam to rush on opposing defenses to open up some passing, which is sad. Despite this however cam doesn't have the oline to stay comfortable I the pocket.

What a waste of money on the RBs part and waste of talent on cams part, just dumb.

I'm not talking about goal line or short yardage sneaks, I like cam to run those. I'm talking about picking up real yardage to make downs more manageable...those are yards the RBs need to be getting.

Shocking how this philosophy was actually working the first part of the season. Then out OC basically decided he was going to go FULL SHULA on us.

Yes he is. Cam is more accurate than Luck. It's working out okay for him.

It's amazing how better receivers can make a QB "more accurate"

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      I suppose it depends on what you mean as 'elite'. I typically mean someone that can play with lower level pieces around them and still win. There are very few of those.

      The running back situation....

      By frankw · Posted

      It would obviously be incredible if Brooks came back and just ran away with the job on his opportunities like Rico Dowdle did last year. But any Panthers fan that has been around the block knows better than to go ahead and make plans for that. Brooks has missed a ton of not just playing time but meaningful early career growth in a league that has increasingly devalued the position from an investment standpoint beyond one or two superstars. There's really not any comparison to look back on that lines up with the current iteration of the league at least not favorably. The key thing that this RB room has going for them is our investment in the OL. The highest paid OL in the league two years in a row paired with our staff should make it easier for just about any RB to get into open running lanes. But that is also anything but a given considering our OL was largely middle of the pack last year. In the end it might all be a moot point anyways if we again struggle to establish a viable passing attack.

      I don't have him making the team and I think same goes for the staff, but they are hopeful for a PS spot.    I mean of course I'd like 3 all-world at RB and every spot, just doesn't work that why. Panthers normally carry 3. dan always talk up Etienne, even called him a future star.....I think Brooks will be fine as a 2 with health pls.....  Chubba can carry a seasons load as lead dawg.    Its fine, I mean backup OGs or CB is much higher on my worry scale(Id even put QB room as worse than RB room too...)
