Why has Cam been the worst QB in football on deep passes this year?

Haven't seen anything like this since the injury.

I sniff rookie troll. Experience yields much more patience than that. Way too direct. 

Newbtroll or experimenting I’d guess.

That’s a legit question,..

does he have the yips from surgery or is it some problem from not having enough practice on them with the emphasis being so heavily on short passes?

I love how you guys complain about accuracy and then the very clip you show has Cam 4-14 in the game where he is supposed to be accurate. Cartoons don't have to be consistent I guess.

The most impressive thing about that is it was off his back foot.

Been asking around about this well into last season.

 

Part of the reason I made the "how would you beat us" thread.  Without the threat of the deep ball, this offense is going to get bottled up.  Plain and simple.

I do think that we have the personnel, and we have the OC that likes to push the ball...is it that we can't or we won't?  We shall see as the season goes on.

I am really starting to lean on it being Ron holding Norv back.

I personally think it's the shoulder. 

As many have been saying here for a while, it's not the big injury that slows down the Cam's of the world...it's the nagging small injures that whittle away at athleticism and ability.

Cam will need to adapt if he want's to play well into his 30's.  It's why I'm real cautious on saying that he will get to 100 rushing TD's in his career.

His arm strength is there, I dispute the notion that the cause is the shoulder surgery. On the missed TD pass to McCaffrey, he overshot him.

this play is cracking me up too.

not criticizing cam's decision making here for the same reason the dude who posted it isnt BUT you can bet your ass the same people blaming cam today would have lost their minds if mccaffrey and moore were switched here and mccaffrey came that wide open and cam "missed" him. but their favorite got force fed another touch so no real complaints on that play.

That play proves that nobody is gonna respect Moore and even guard him all that well until we actually start using him more.

By my previous numbers, it would mean that Cam is 39/50 in passes from 6-14 yards.

That means his completion percentage in each range:

Behind LOS-5 yards - 80%
6-14 yards - 78%
15+ yards - 43%

I think this is because of a few things:

1. We run too many out routes.
2. We rarely pass in between the hash marks.
3. Our WRs that are getting PT can't run open routes.
4. We stopped using CMC as a receiver out of the backfield, which would help out or WRs.
5. Cam still has the occasional overthrow.

When 51% of your passes are for 5 yards are less, it is kinda hard to stretch the field and take the pressure off your run game, too. Teams are just going to stack our box every game until we start stretching the field more.

I suspect they're all already keying on CMC so much because we're using him way too much and they know our game is the short game. TBQH This is 100% on Ron and Norv.

 

This x1000. It doesn't take a football expert to watch our team and come to this conclusion.
