Don't get me wrong watching Cam play and develop has been a blessing to watch but it's a bit unsettling when one play he throws a perfect 50 yd bomb and then misses a simple 5-15 yd pass. In the off season there was a lot of talk about him improving his passing but there have been a decent amount that got away from him this season, is it something to worry about? Or maybe the chemistry with these WRs isn't where it should be?

Yes. 

The panthers could have scored fifty if cam had hit his intermediate routes. 

The offense has very little margin for error due to the way the coaches want to play the game. 

When they're constantly in third and long in the second half, either cam needs to be more accurate or we need to start throwing on earlier downs.

Did you notice that Aaron Rodgers missed some throws too?  You can't always be perfect against NFL defenses.

You can't tell me Rodgers would have missed Olsen on that seam route and Cotchery on that out route if he had the time and space Cam did. Not sayin he should be 100% but hitting those kind of throws would do his near 50% completion percentage some good.

In the first half, Rodgers missed some throws that were that easy.  He caught fire late, but he really struggled early on.

No QB is perfect. As Linville said, Rodgrs missed some unpressured "easy" throws too. Every QB does. Cam doesn't miss many, and makes up for th slightly higher percentage of throws than the Rodgers, Bradys and Breeses do with other attributes they couldn't dream of doing. Imagine seeing Brady front flipping over the Texans DL for a good mental chuckle heh.

As damn big as Cam is, he said he couldn't see Cotch on that route.  He was throwing the route, and misjudged.  That wasn't Cam just missing a target right in front of his face...

Yes indeed.

In fact, I would recommend panic!

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.

      Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
