Cam Newton was absolutely atrocious


Verge

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.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
