Cam is not healthy

[TN05]

We haven't seen Cam play this poorly since 2014... when he was hurt. I don't think Cam has looked 100% since at least the first half of the Denver game.

We have a Monday night game coming up against Tampa. It may be wise of us to give Cam the week to rest and get healthy. DA is more than capable of beating Tampa, he's done it twice.  That will give Cam two weeks to get healthy for the Saints game, where he'll need to be sharp.

I think he's been playing with an undiagnosed concussion, and I fear he may have a stinger or some sort of nerve issue with his shoulder/throwing arm.

I agree he's clearly hurt and it's up to the staff to protect the franchise...we don't need Cam to go 1-3 we can do that just fine with DA....just Ron isn't a smurt person.

He should've been pulled week one. But they trusted him when he said "no I'm fine." But they said he passed protocol.

It's pretty obvious his decision-making and physicality are both impaired. He's being asked to do too much.

2015 CAM WAS LIKE A DREAM THIS LOOKS LIKE A WORSE 2014 ALL OVER AGAIN. ITS UP TO THE OLINE AND HIM . WHEN CAMS HAPPY HES THE MVP WHEN HES POUTING AND NEGATIVE HE SUCKS . SIMPLE AS THAT . HE NEEDS HIS SWAG BACK 

[GoobyPls]

I think he's fine, just in a rut. Today's concussion  didn't look that bad, compared with Luke's last year.

 

The problem is he's not trusting his line. And we are constantly in 3rd and long.

Not sure where he's pulling that swag from if he can't stay healthy.

No doubt Shula is asking too much in the run dept. Cam is not healthy or this never happens.

Cam had a very good game against 49ers, and was dominate coming out against Vikes. I dont think he was concussed against Broncos. I do think his left leg is bothering him. Since that injury against Vikes, he's not moving well and his mechanics is off. He's not planting it

He's playing fine... but that's not what he is. He's the best quarterback in the league. Even if I didn't personally believe players should sit for at least one week after a concussion, he needs time to rest.

His line isn't playing that badly. The issue is he's holding the ball too long. He's Ignoring check downs that could get big chunks in hope of a big play. He's being relied on to run way too much. Derek Anderson gave us a spark because he was throwing quick, sharp passes. Cam did that last year and isn't now.

His decision making is off. He missed that read-option where Tolbert could have gotten a first. He was overthrowing guys, waiting too long on slant routes. He's just not playing as sharp as he ever has.

Can Seahawks and Panthers fans stop with this utter nonsense? You do not sit franchise QBs (one of which just won the damn MVP) unless they truly cannot go.

Crazy thing is that the Lions, Dolphins, and Bears fanbase would absolutely ban you for saying the same thing and their QBs who are not even half of what Wilson or Newton is.

It's not a benching. It's not even sitting. It's giving a man time to recover from an injury. That's standard procedure and applies to anyone, including quarterbacks. 

I'm not on the hate Cam bandwagon or the Anderson bandwagon. Cam is the best quarterback in the league. But something is off. If we're going to demand Cam do everything, he needs to be healthy.

Cam is fine. Mentally he isnt. That oline has to give him time. He has got beat up the first 3 games. He is frustrated. He was fine when they scored on defense out there celebrating. He was fine first series doing his iconic first down. He may have a couple dinks that is average for football players. But nothing that is effecting how he plays. Its he dont trust the oline to give him time. He got rid of the ball earlier today because the oline cant hold up. The result, bad feet mechanics, overthrowing less time in the pocket. Last year he had 5 secs to get rid of it. This year 3secs. Put the blame on the oline. It really has nothing to do with Cam its just he is taking the heat for a bad oline.
