Lowest Passer rating and completion percentage of his career.

Why is this, in your opinion.

Possible explanations:

Inept play calling unable to compensate for league adjusting to Cam.

Bad offensive line

Told not to run, thus removing a threat and allowing defenses to pin ears back.

League approved Head hunting and concussions.

What say you?

Are you not even going to consider the possibility that he has a part in his play quality?

I think the reasons are numerous and varied. Team got complacent. Even DG seemed to half-ass the offseason. Cam had other priorities over the summer with his TV career. For whatever reason, Cam is not running this year which totally changes the way defenses play us. The number 1 wideout is struggling to get his game going. Olsen has had a few more drops than normal. Cam's mechanics have regressed. This season just sucks ass. Goodbye 2016.

A player doesn't go from league mvp to low point in career without help.

 

A player doest have the season Cam had last year and win MVP without a lot of help either.

 

While Id put the lions share of the blame on an O-Line that couldn't block a Pop Warner defense, there's plenty left over for the lack of offensive adaptation to a scheme that works with what we have.

 

But to ignore the fact that Cam has regressed mentally and physically this year smacks of some Blind Delhomme Newton Jock Sniffing

The hits in the first game rattled him...  he realized the league wasn't going to protect him and the coaches solution was for him to run less, which caused problems to the overall offensive scheme... inept playcalling and lack of adjustments by the coaching staff...  carousel on the O line...  and once we got on a losing streak, it went downhill from there.

Plenty of blame to go around.

My opinion is not popular    My opinion has changed

I have also been a huge supporter of his until this year, as early as the 3rd preseason game he seemed to not want to be here

until he learns to handle a blitz and play smart football he will continue to be an unsustainable, one trick pony.   As Atlanta figured out and Denver reiterated , neither he or Shula can handle a blitZ

he has  zero touch on the ball and throws into a crowd...  his throwing the ball up and hoping for a miracle against Seattle was poor

note to Cam, if there are three defensive players around your first read, someone is open  it is your job to quickly read the field and find them

he needs to work on his  craft and evolve or he will be short lived in the NFL

of course, he could always model but he needs to understand he got that opportunity from winning football games.  Of course 67 million guaranteed ...

Things that are interesting and endearing when winning  aren't so much losing 

tie thing was ridiculous but he had been on the team for 6 years the rule was not new   Why not follow it.?  

No, let's be different as after all Cam 'wins his way.'   He loses his way too

Win against the Redskins Cam. National TV you know. Make a couple of plays .  Team feeds off you and there have been elite QBs in worse positions then you are now who in addition to not having  an oline didn't have Olsen, Stewart and two receivers drafted specifically to hide your accuracy issues

sorry. Have the guy's jersey. I realize now it should have been Luke's 

superman became more so when the chips were down. How about you, Cam?  ..or is image everything?

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
