Too be fair...those same mediocore, cheap tackles helped lead Cam to an MVP season and a 15-1 record last year..

Nah nothing was stopping cam last year.. rarely made any mistakes and did the right things.. namely step up in the pocket and throw the damn ball away.. I think cam's play really masked how bad the OTs really are.

And were bad while doing it. This is the problem. Dave thought the same way you did. That they were good enough and that if we just left it be it would improve.

 

It doesn't work that way in the NFL. If you have a weakness its going to be exploited and mined. Regression was inevitable. Regression is always going to happen if you leave things as is.

 

The team may have very well been better off shuffling their weak areas around if nothing else.

Half the reason they gave Cam MVP was cause he surrounded by a bunch castoff journeyman bums.

 

What Cam did last season was other worldly. We literally had the cheapest, least experienced, least productive receivers and line in the NFL.

There is a salary cap- it is highly, highly improbable you will have all-pros at EVERY position unless you draft perfectly and get free agents for deals way under market value. That's an unrealistic expectation. 

 

I swear some of you didn't learn ANYTHING from Hurney. fug man.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.

      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.
