1. He's grown as a passer -- the numbers back it up, but his mental and physical progression is clear. Not leaps and bounds last year but he's grown from the raw product we saw when he came from Auburn.
2. Cam's cleared two of the benchmarks for NFL quarterbacks: he's been to the playoffs and he has a playoff win. He's the only NFC South quarterback to EVER win back-to-back division titles. 
3. He has no one around him! Kelvin Benjamin helped last year and adding Devin Funchess is big too, but let's not act like Cam is working with a stacked deck.
4. His offensive line has stunk. It's getting better too but he's been a quarterback under fire.
5. He's working in a limited offensive system. Plug him in the Philadelphia Eagles system with Chip Kelly and he's shattering records. 
6. What's the alternative??? This is the biggest one for me: if you DON'T pay Cam, you want to go and try your luck in the draft or in free agency? The top players available were Jameis Winston and Josh McCown. You don't want that life, Mox. 
7. The minimum amount of guaranteed money on the deal is going to be $40 million because Cam's owed $14.5 million for 2015 on his option and would get $25 million(ish) for a 2016 franchise tag.
I bet this ends up looking like a Matt Ryan type deal from the Atlanta Falcons -- his agent has to understand it'll get beat by Philip Rivers and Andrew Luck in the next year so it should be a current top-5 contract.

And Point Four is silly. For whatever you thinl of Shula, the Coryell system is one of the best established offenses in the league. Kelly's using a gimmicky system that wears out his own defense.

​It wins though, and his offense is always near the top even with Mark shitty Sanchez.

​The Coryell system is great. Shula is not.

It hasn't truly won much of anything yet. And there were signs late last season that other teams had caught up to it. We'll see this coming season.

I'd add that records don't mean jack.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
