Cam was let down by his offense

Did you know that Cam was sacked (tied) for a super bowl record 7 times?! Cam's reaction is one of a person who has been let down by his supporting cast. Cam may be made for the big lights, but are those around him? It appears to me everyone around him shrunk leading to him eventually following suit (avoiding to recover the fumble). Get these guys who have no desire to be the greatest at their positions off the team ASAP.

At least he didn't throw his teammates under the bus like Manning did in 2006

Oh and a disturbing comment I read on NFL network

Kevin Alexander

What a little bitch Newton is! There he was at the after game presser lookin all Trayvon-like in his hoodie, pissed that he had to lower himself to answer questions from the media he said last week didn’t know how to handle a black quarterback like him. Then the sore loser took his Skittles and ran.

Yeah it's not about race. SMH

goodness, i knew i shouldnt have shown up here today. Cam missed a lot of throws, not sure what kind of defense mechanisms need to be derived to make people feel sorry for Cam

Yeah, I think we have established that genius.

But when your QB is getting hit within 2 seconds, especially blindside hits, it's time to alter the gameplan a bit, instead of long developing routes.

It's perfectly reasonable to criticize Cam's performance without being a hater. Shouldnt be a need to try and absolve the guy. He had a bad game. It happens.

Everything around him outside of the defense did him no favors, but he didnt do his part to try to weather the storm and let the defense get the victory which, outside of some costly fumbles, may have been possible.

Everything that could have gone wrong did. Cam included.

Did you read the stat line about the superbowl record for sacks? That's where it starts from.

Both of the sack fumbles were opposite of blind side hits, genius.

The offense let the defense down and Cam was a huge part of that. Just not fumbling the ball twice inside the 10 would have changed the game totally.  He played very poorly while guys like Ginn and Philly Brown did very well. He gets no pass in my book.

That's fair but I see it differently. He trusted his oline to protect him so he can focus on his reads. Can't blame him for any of those fumbles. Last thing you want it a QB who doesn't trust his protection enough to go through his reads.

Did I say they were blindside hits? No? But those hits attribute to mistrust throughout the game in a QB's OL.

If you can't see that, then why exactly are you posting here?

Cam didn't play a bad game. He didn't play a great one either. He missed two throws. He also made about 5 throws that should have been caught including the one pass challenged-- there was no reason for Cotch to bobble that ball-- and other Cotch drop that would have put the Panthers inside the 5. 

Cam's WRs are what they are. We need to get better and more explosive in that area.

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
