Through eight games, Cam has a higher QB rating Andy completion percentage than Brady and Rodgers

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.

Hypophora overload!

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!

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
