What do you make out of Cams press conference?

We know, we know. How dare Gman not bow down to the mighty Josh.

 

Before the year started, and even after we lost Josh. Most folks still had us vying for a playoff spot. But because the wheels fell off, it is all Gmans fault?

 

That is the life of a fan. We can think what we want. We are not bound by the reality of actually running an NFL team.

 

 

We had the worst pass defense in the NFL because of Dave.  That falls on him. 

It was more than the Norman fiasco.  He didn't equip the coaching staff with the bodies needed and everything about his coaches identity is about playing off the defense.

so yeah, it is on Dave.  His coaches do X and believe in X....and he botched their D.  Which impacts everything they are.

DG is also responsible for providing better players for our weaknesses which he chose not do to. DG and Rivera's job went hand to hand in this seasons huge fail. You don't look at your weakness and assume you'll be good enough the following year by not addressing them.

Our weakness this season was injuries...  You cannot predict injuries.  Common sense.

I don't wanna trade Cam. But three first rounders?  I'd trade my mom for three first rounders.  Honestly, that would be tough to pass up for any player.

I'm not really sure we could get that though. Heck, even a franchise tag only carries two firsts.

You'd have to be in Herschel Walker territory before I'd be ready to entertain this idea.

Carson Palmer went for a 1st and 2nd.

I think the Value of certain players is too unrealistic...Cam would be worth 3 easily but who could/would do that.

they are blinded, but one has to try to enlighten them.

I agree that DG is very much to blame for sitting on the 3rd most cap space in the league - doing nothing to improve our offensive line or secondary. ANYONE should have seen those problems on the horizon.

We should just spend on someone right?  Cause it worked out amazing for Hurney.

Injuries didn't make our defense stink. Healthy we gave up some of our worst D performances in franchise history.

Injuries didn't cause our pass game issues ....Wade Phillips informing the league not to allow us to help the weak OL was our problem (and our coaching staff knew that was coming)

That wasn't the only reason. Everyone saw that OT, TE2, FB, DE, S, and CB were our weakness. The only thing DG did to help those areas was draft 3 CBs. Which tanked at least the first half of the season until they got better.

Cam seems like the type of player that would retire when the game no longer becomes fun. He thrives off of energy. When the league is against you and your protection isn't up to par and you don't have enough weapons, that would suck the fun out of any QB. We need to give this guy protection and weapons soon or else I can see him leaving the game real early.

Maybe we should go QB at no 8?

Yes, injuries played a big role in bad passing D.  Go back and look at all the injuries in secondary and LB position this season.  We also had one of the best OL in football last year.

GMs are not fortune tellers, they are people just like you and I.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
