Don't you hate when Cam overthrows a WR deep on 3rd and short

He had more bad throws that game as well. The issue is most on this board only watch Panthers games. Every game you can give example after example of elite QB's making bad throws but for some reason these people hold Cam to a higher standard.

Oh Peyton does it too? That's cool then.

but you were filming a TV...

Then the Thunder should cut Westbrook then because he isn't Lebron and can be inconsistent.

He overthrew the same route on the down before that on 2nd and two. They went for it on 4rth down and got it. Cam is inconsistent, but a large part of that is inconsistent play around him.

This is fantastic logic Boogie.

While your at it why don't you watch The Chargers game from this weekend? Rivers has an O-line that's as bad as ours and 1 decent receiver and 1 decent receiving tight end. He still pulled a win out of his ass in that one game. 

 

I guess what your saying then is that Cam is on a par with Peyton but worse then Rivers? 

 

Bravo.

He's doing a great job at overthrowing his wide receivers since his first year as a pro.

[csx]

One is completing 57.9% of his passes, the other is completing 66.8%. I'll let the OP guess which is which.

Tom Brady against GB overthrew an open receiver across the middle of the field by about 20 yards and then later short hopped a pass on a quick out without any pressure on either throw.

 

It isn't saying that Cam is as good as Brady or Manning.  It is showing that bad passes are part of playing QB, and Cam normally is no worse or better than most QBs

 

 

I have never in my life seen a QB so closely scrutinized by a fanbase on a pass to pass basis than Cam Newton.

Not saying Cam hasn't had check down opportunities because he has, that last game was the most checkdowns he's thrown all season. The problem is these down field slow developing routes Shula dials up. Shula Rarely calls routes over the middle of the field, seems like these routes are always to the sidelines.

This is part of his philosophy.

 

Remember, Shula's entire ideas of calling plays comes from the old days of the NFL. There were no timing, no 5/7 drop stick routes, no seams. You couldn't throw over the middle because A.) offenses weren't yet sophisticated enough and B.) safeties were allowed to commit murder on the field.

 

So you stuck to sideline throws, post routes in favorable situations (3rd and short), tight end curls etc. 

 

When you watch the Panthers now, you're literally watching an offense from about 20 years ago. 

 

Here is the 1996 NFC Championship game. The Panthers oc at the time was Joe Pendry, who retired in 2010 after serving as an assistant at Alabama. 

 

 

This is the offense the Panthers are running, with the exception of some single wing/option plays that I really don't think Shula fully understands. Just look at Willie Green and Mark Carrier running the same routes (and about as fast) as Cotchery.
