Cam has been pretty good in the 1st Quarter

With all of the Cam threads and how bad he’s played nobody ever points out that he’s started both games pretty perfect. 4/4 at the beginning of both games. 

I decided to look at the stats and found something interesting. Cam has been really good in the first quarter. The really interesting thing is that he’s also pretty solid in the third and terrible in the 4th. 

So there’s two theories you can form here:

1.He’s still hurt and he’s better when’s he’s fresh at the beginning of the game and after half. 

2. The offensive line breaks down as the game goes on which of course affects Cam. 

1st Quarter

14/19 | 73.7% completion | 7.9 avg | 96.6 rating 

2nd Quarter

13/24 | 54.2% completion | 5.5 avg | 70.0 rating

3rd Quarter

9/16 | 56.2% completion | 10.1 avg | 90.9 rating 

4th Quarter

14/30 | 46.7 completion | 4.3 avg | 45.0 rating 

Just a different take to the Cam is washed conversation.

Curious out of those 1st quarter throws.  How many were attempts of further than 15 yards.

 

It seemed a lot of the OL breakdown started after the 1st quarter when they realized he waa barely 1 dimensional. 

With time and feet set, he was slinging it 5-10 yards over guys heads (guys who were WIDE open)

Once you do this teams can easily and adjust (yes the word our staff has historically struggled with) and can just sit with 1 single high safety and trust the CBs in 1 on 1 matches because they know he Cant hit a guy down field.  That allows them to stack the box bringing preasure to this already bad OL and shutting down those short passing lanes (such as those short pssses to CMC, Samuel, and Moore) in the 1st

He threw 51 times Thursday night 

let that sink in

i bet  he couldn’t brush his teeth with his right hand Friday morning 

this offensive line, OC, and line coach has to figure out at least five plays that can be executed and run them or the question of Cam’s viability won’t matter 

The game plan was mind boggling

Maybe its because he's gone 100% vegan and they have lower testosterone levels then real men and incidentally he's started cross dressing....but whatever ...I'm just saying .....science

 

 

and just to add to this....I'd be fine with a 6'6 Broomhilda being the panthers QB if she could play.......and eat red meat

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
