Stats - Cam and CMC


ClawOn

Recommended Posts

Just some facts here. I don't think 1 speaks to Cam's talent, rather his evident misuse and other well documented problems. 2 speaks to the much discussed promise (or lack thereof to some) of our #8 pick:

1. In the past two seasons,  Cam's 5.32 yards per attempt is worse than Bortles (5.49).

2. McCaffrey is on pace to tie Anquan Boldin's record for most receptions by a rookie in NFL history (101).

The thing about CMC is that I think he has helped raise Cam’s completion percentage but I don’t think we needed to spend a first round pick to do that. We have a game plan in mind this season and, yes, CMC is good but I don’t think he was worth the pick when considering that if we made a conscious effort to change the plan any player in rounds 3-5 could do this.

Fozzy isn't nearly as good as CMC in catching the ball.

Outside of 3 maybe 4 catches this year, every single reception has been rudimentary

 

Shoot his best game this season came against the saints playing prevent defense letting us have the underneath throws  in a blow loss.

Why do you guys care if it is a run for 4 or 5 yards or a catch for 4 or 5 yards? If I am the coach I would call designed short passes to CMC every fuging play until the other team adjusts to stopping it.  We move the ball when we use CMC in the passing game. We grind to a hault when we don't -simple as that.

We don't wait for that adjustment to come though, we just stop doing it when it is working. When the other team adjusts, that should help free up a receiver or maybe even take a guy out of the box for stewart, depending on where CMC lines up.

Thats all shula..no matter what playcall is working he will quit using it and try a play call that does not work and use it over and over again..Anybody thinking this man is any good is lost. On top of that guys that looked good during preseason don't even get a chance to play look at CAP..he played better to me than CMC but where is he at not even been activated. We need a spark for someone..throw Clay in the game to lets see what he can provide..it appears we are lost on offense anyway.

The thing about CMC is I dont see the hype. He does provide Cam some underneath passes but he isnt getting rac. I dont see the shiftyness they were talking about. I dont see the big play potential he was suppose to bring. Granted its his rookie year. Also he is costing us valuable yard on special teams by not far catching the ball at the 40 and letting it bounce to the 15. He isnt playing up to his potential and is playing hesitant I guess due to his size.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
