My concern going forward is just this.  Todd Bowles laid the gameplan on how to beat us.  The left side of our line isn’t going to get any better.  The game plans will be pressure and man coverage. And take away CMC   Make Cam beat you with his arm.  

If Cam wants his next contract it’s there for the taking   But can he actually get it done

Going to have to commit a TE/FB to chip/block on every passing play....otherwise rinse and repeat every week. This Oline just doesn't have the ability to handle it without help.

That suggests that the people in the know in the NFL do not see this as mere rust.  A game plan--and this has all the signs of a game plan and not an adjustment---that disrespects an NFL QB's arm is telling.  What do they know?

Back when Cam was running, lowering his shoulder, getting hit repeatedly---did you not think there would come a day when he was just unable to play any more?

But this is the thing before, and I stand by the idea that I think his foot is worse off than we're being told, if teams ran man vs us he could get loose for big gains because the DBs have to turn and run. 

I think TB saw the lack of mobility vs LAR, and full well took advantage of that, because all off-season it was about the shoulder, no word about lower extremity issues until the sprained foot in the PS. 

So without his ability to escape and our inability to hold up vs speed rushers in particular this could be annoying, ARI may be 0-2 but they also run a 3-4 like LAR / TB, and have an All-Pro in Chandler Jones, and a guy like Suggs that can still make plays and plenty of speed at the second level. 

Our coaches need to start earning that money and implementing better game plans, also off topic, have we even run any under center PA passes?

    • Yeah but at least that QB would be not short.  I keep going back to the fact other than Wilson no other short QB has ever won a Super Bowl. The success rate of short QBs is very, very low. Like count on one hand low.  Yeah some people would include Brees too but I don’t consider a 6 foot tall QB short, imo. 
    • I just rewatched all the highlights from after Bryce being benched. The Bryce hate needs to calm down a little bit. He showed a ton of potential the back half of the year. Same with Legette. They both made great plays when it mattered and a few mistakes when it counted. If we didn’t have a historically awful defense last year we could have ended even a bit better. Going into a brand new season we should be optimistic at least before game one. 2015 no one expected to go anywhere and the team steam rolled the league. I’m not saying that will happen, but hopefully we made strides to improve on the end of last year. Bryce put both Super Bowl teams in a battle last year and if we had a better D we could have taken them both. So at least look forward to the season and not past the season until it at least begins. 
    • I’m not mad at Moehrig.  He’s great at what he does.  And to be honest, a lot of my favorite safeties in our history were box-first type guys - Maxie, Minter, Mike Mitchell, Chris Harris…  they’re first and foremost objective was to put people on their backs and coverage was secondary.  There is a place for that.  There is a definite need for that.  Physical guys that set the tone.  So cool, we have that in Moerhig. But what we have lacked for the vast majority of our existence is a true free safety that cleans everything up on the back end.  Sometimes they come in the form of a JOAT, like Peppers.  I think he would be a fantastic compliment to Moehrig’s strengths and weaknesses.  If we don’t go after him, I certainly hope Ransom is given the chance to grow and develop in real-time with real game reps, because what he did in preseason was very encouraging to see.  I hope he can grow into that roaming center fielder with a little bit of an edge to him as an enforcer as well.  He has the tools.  In the meantime, adding Peppers would only help.
