Someone let me know when TheRed comes in crying about pointing out a Cam Newton mistake. 

 

Thanks. 

I hate to say it but Cam deserves as much blame for this year as anybody else. I don't know what the hell happened but he looks like a different player from last year. And no it's not due to the OL.

He was sacked 32 times all of last season.  He's been sacked 44 times so far this season.

That's what happened to Cam.

Some of those sacks were on him though for holding onto the ball. 

 

This thread for example.

Wait... There's some of you that are actually putting this on Cam?

Ginn is 5 yards away from the sticks with Sean Smith playing at the 1st down line and already starting to make his break downhill the second Ginn stops. Cam was just about to throw his way anyway but even if he does get it to Ginn there's no way he picks up that 1st

You are right. Getting sacked was much better decision than letting Ginn try for a first down. Nevermind that Ginn had already gotten a first down after the catch earlier in the game.

Honestly, Ginn wasn't getting to the sticks anyway.  Yeah, I would've rather he got the ball and had a chance rather than a sack, but that DB was in perfect position to close on Ginn and was watching Cam.  Had the ball been thrown, he probably meets the ball at Ginn. I'm not even sure if it would've been a completion, much less a 1st down. That DB isn't playing Ginn as much as he's playing the 1st down sticks.

    • Considering you previously struggled to understand BTT despite it being explained in a video, write-up, and multiple replies, I get why this might be a little too complex for you. Happy to clarify again! Just let me know which part tripped you up this time. 😉
    • And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.  
    • The most telling sign, IMO, of a team on the upward swing is who we lost in the off-season. Who left that even saw the field? Woods, Clowney, Sanders, & Hekker. OK...no big deal. Clowney is the only 1 that I raised an eyebrow over and I get that it was a money decision. No need to pay him over $7M to take snaps from our draft picks when he was just OK last year.
