Cam Newton was absolutely atrocious

Recommended Posts

I know I defended him last week, but this game was completely out of the usual for him. Balls were constantly behind the receivers, he missed wide open throws, he delivered balls late, he was almost intercepted thee different times. I know the protection was awful, but even when he had time he was downright awful. I am not sure how much longer you stick with him if he continues performances like these, he let the defense down, he had single high coverage 90% of that game.

So you're ready to clean house, and trade players for picks? We're not going to find a quarterback overnight. This team sure as hell doesn't have an elite defense, or a good enough offense that some random can just stand back there and game manage.

As bad as Cam was, I do not understand how we didn't attempt a ton of screen passes with the Bucs literally running jail break blitzes rushing 7 or 8 guys. Doing that a few times would not only result in big plays but also force the Bucs to chill with their blitzes. The god awful playcalling only encouraged and rewarded the Bucs for blitzing every single down

I don't know how you do much worse the way he played tonight against a soft Bucs D.

I'm not sure it's the right path either, but if Cam can't get right/get healthy then this season is lost anyway.

Could Cam have put the ball on target?

Yeah every time you saw them creeping up to the line and playing press man on the outside you could just feel the sack/hit coming.  Must have been utterly demoralizing.

how many qbs could play for this coach and in this offense behind that oline?

you have two dinosaurs coaching the team, a radio host as GM and an owner who is too weak to pull the trigger on firing anybody. it's like an 80 year old driving a ferrari, driving 10 below the limit in the passing lane.

I don't care about how much some may defend him, he's done so much for this franchise, but his play tn with this coaching staff will result in a cascade of losses.  Factor in the OL play to the left and we're going to have some MAJOR issues.  This wasn't even a great defense, just one who knew how to attack our offensive weaknesses without Cam running.

    • He will be good but I don't think he has that level of speed to be elite.   
    • Canales never comes straight out and says he and Idzik were JO buddies, but man is it difficult to read it and come away with a different conclusion. 1. the book isn’t edited. They it through spellcheck once and published it. It’s really disjointed and at times the story kinda chanted within like two paragraphs. 2. Neither of them are going to write the great gatsby any time soon and it reads like they dictated it. Except the part where Dave talks about his apologies which is VERY carefully crafted (comparably) with lots of “I felt like I was being honest at the time, but I NOW realize I wasn’t” type poo. So there’s tons of stuff that really shouldn’t be in print. And it’s a combination of stuff where after you go back and read it you say “excuse me what?” off the top of my head within like two pages he’ll say something like “growing closer with the staff than my wife,” “late nights using porn to relax,” “bonding with the coaches.”  The book opens with Canales getting the Bucs offensive coordinator job and they both tell a different recollection of it. Someone (probably Idzik) comes over to celebrate. Dave remembers saying “we were just so excited to talk about how this new role would help us share Christ’s message” or something like that.  Izzy was getting wine drunk in bed (always a sign of a happy marriage) during all this and heavily implies they went out to a strip club to celebrate then when they come back home drunk she says something like “Dave always loved to relax with his friends and a thick cigar.” Like damn Dave get your wife under control. Idzik is also an evangelical who has a lot of…unfortunate…”sermons” on Facebook that’ll probably stop him from ever getting a job away from Dave. Also an impressive gay affect if you’ve never heard him speak. Sheena mentions one time the reason Dave wouldn’t give up play calling duties was because the offense was in rough shape and he “cared about Brad too much to do that to him.” Go watch the clip of Bryce and Brad celebrating after the packers game. Makes all the more salacious whispers about young make a little more sense. 
    • It's less him they dont trust and that offensive line. Hes been sacked more than anybody in the country.
