It's indicative of what Panthers fans have known for a very long time. 

Does Cam throw high at times?  Yes.

Has he been running an offense that puts him in the worst possible position considering that deficiency?  Yes.

Are other top tier quarterbacks consistently asked to make the throws Cam is?  No.

Is Cam now in an offense that is designed to make things easy for the QB like other said Quarterbacks?  Yes.

Is Cam a top 5 QB in the NFL?  Yes.

Again, nothing about Cam's changed really, he still does basically the complete opposite of everything you want a pocket passer to do from the neck down when he throws the ball. Leans back, drops his elbow, plants his back foot and generates power by torquing his entire upper body into the throw. He only manages to make it effective because he's so fuging big and strong. The downside though is that it's a longer, more exaggerated motion, that's more prone to accuracy issues when everything isn't perfect in the pocket.

So what Norv has done is basically limit the amount of passes Cam has to make while facing pressure in a collapsing pocket, and when he does, it's the kind of pass Cam excels at. Basically, power shots down the field where he's essentially outracing a defender with his arm. You don't see him throwing a lot of those sideline fades or corner routes that he tends to miss on. And you see him getting a lot more basically "free" completions, like those jet sweeps where he flips it forward instead of back, that counts as a completion!

      There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
