Will Cam adjust to a short passing game?

What will it take for this to be something he can excel at. Hopefully the improved Oline will give him the time to be more accurate. Saying that Brady did it during the SB means nothing in the scheme of things. If Cam doesn't get his high throws under control, things may get messy. Opinions please.

I never thought he had trouble overthrowing the short passes. He tends to sail the football more on the downfield passes. But still, hopefully with CmC and Samuel; along with the stanford rb roach; I see our offense evolving and bringing out some brand new plays for Cam. He will adjust if he wants to succeed.

If you go back to 2015, Cam completed 76% of his passes behind the LOS and 64% of his passes that traveled 1-10 yards. Even last year, with Fozzy coming out of the backfield, he caught 25 of 33 attempts.

Yeah, I think Cam can adjust to the shorter passing game. This doesn't mean we're going to stop attacking down the field, hopefully it just means that we aren't so damn predictable with nearly every passing play consisting of keeping additional blockers in to help protect and then three guys running slow developing downfield routes. That's not a recipe for consistent success.

Last year I remember somebody posting how Cam is deadly when the ball gets out of his hands quick

If he got time, our guys get separation, I think we're going to be fine.

Some times he gets it out too quick and rocket arms it in a short yardage situation.

Cam has shown pinpoint accuracy in the quick passing game, especially the hurry up.

As long as our OL can keep him clean, Cam will be fine. He's the least of our worries at this point. We're still hinging our season that Matt Kalil will become a legit LT.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  I'm less comparing them as players and using him as a reference point.  I legitimately think Bryce is capable of being a better NFL QB than Kyler has been.  Kyler has no clutch gene and doesn't seem to have a grip on the locker room, or much love for the game.  Much different body types/strengths and weaknesses.   Crazy to think-- but Kyler is at year 7 as a 1.01...38-48-1 on his career, 0-1 in the playoffs. He's somehow played well enough to keep it going but crazy to think he's barely even touched the playoffs.  Hasn't done anything that special for the Cards.  That's what you don't want to be stuck in.  Cardinals are in softball purgatory with him.

      It's not analysis. There was no attempt to analyze anything or even convey new information at all.

      As to the topic, I've complained before about "superstar" mentality, i.e. the notion that you can win championships with one superstar player surrounded by a group of mediocre fill ins. It just doesn't work. The Manning-Brady rivalry was something of a showcase for that. The Colts general approach focused everything on Manning. The Patriots? Oh, they also had a superstar quarterback but they built a complete team, especially on the defensive side. This sort of thing is why I've argued many times that "system quarterback" should be to considered a description, not an insult. I know everybody loves the "MVP" athletic types, and they're fun to watch, but that's not necessarily the true path to consistent winning and championship glory.
