Cam scrambling

Recommended Posts

I'd love for Cam to get back to scrambling. I think we call so many designed runs for him that when we do call a pass he's bound and determined to throw the ball. These days when he scrambles it's as if he's scrambling with virtually no desire to take off down the field but only to buy more time to throw. I love the fact that he's going through his progressions but getting baco to tucking that thing and taking off as a runner on a passing play will only make him that more dangerous as a QB and our offense that much harder to stop.

Depends what you count as a scramble...hopefully not that bullshit against the Chiefs where he slid a few yards from the 1st and there was nobody near him....

I mean where he goes through his progressions and doesn't like what he sees so he takes off. Not designed read options or qb draws etc.

I woul too, I was just wondering because the last couple of months analyst have said that he looks at his primary and if he's not open he takes off. I could have sworn he barely does any out of pocket scrambles.

Typical lazy "analysts" going with popular talking points rather than actually watching some damn games.

This is right on the money.

I think I saw it on here last year, it was the number of times cam took off and scrambled (not a designed run). I am having troubles finding it, anyone know the number of times he took off?

He was so good at it in 2011 & 2013 hopefully those lanes opens up with the additon of new weapons

As long as the refs allow head shots anytime he takes off I think his running days are over. He is too valuable to allow open season on him.

Hell, he takes more head shots in the pocket - where a QB is supposed to the protected the most- than he does when running.

    • In May of 2026, it looks like a challenging schedule...and it probably is.  I rarely listen to the "strength of schedule" conversations that light up social media this time of year. Each year teams improve and decline. I think there's chunks of the year we need to take care of business and the week 5 bye is not desired.  I do think if we don't hit the bye week at 3-1, it's going to be a major uphill battle given the schedule in front of us. This season falls on three people, regardless of schedule strength: Canales, Bryce, Evero.  Canales: Finally can truly coach all aspects of the team and not focus with gameday prep for OC duties anymore. He drives the bus and needs to get these guys in position to win each week. There's no way vets come in and put it on the line every week to watch our QB sh!t the bed (See: SF game last year). Bryce: Despite everyone's obsession with thinking Bryce is a guaranteed extension, I think this year will truly be his "prove it" year. If he comes out the way he has the past three years, I really don't see how vets and coaches can continue to put him under center long-term. He might play out that fifth year as the starter, but I think next offseason his long-term replacement is found. I also think there's no excuses with the weapons and commitment we've made on offense to insulate him with every possible weapon.  Evero: Best personnel he's had since he's been here...no excuses. Figure out how to blitz effectively. Figure out how to use CBs whose strengths are press/man. Figure out how to utilize a talented front-7 to get the hell of the field. Outside of FS and maybe....maybe ILB, there are few weaknesses on this unit. 
    • Canales can never get his teams ready in the first week of the season so far. Hope that changes or Ben Johnson is going to take his azz to school.
