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?

    • I saw an interesting point the other day about our type of situation.  It could have been wise to hold him off for 1-2 weeks, but that would not have anything to do with Bryce and you could easily communicate that from a PR standpoint.   Why? Well, we just brought an entirely new staff into town, new offense for the returning OL, and had wholesale turnover elsewhere.  So just run Dalton out there the first game or so to see how things are shaking out.  Dry run to make sure we won't kill the kid.  We weren't eyeing the SB.  Get a sense of the line, the receivers, the playbook.  It gives you a glimpse of what Bryce would be stepping into and a good barometer on where things stood sans him.  I suppose we sort of did that with Dalton, but that was a reactive switch and like @Ricky Spanish mentioned, it was against an injured SEA defense where we threw a ridiculous amount.  Who knows, maybe we could have at least won a game or two more that way.  You can adjustments prior to Bryce stepping in, better tee it up for him, and maybe we end up winning game 1 or 2. Last year was such a sh*tshow.  One of the worst seasons I've ever experienced in any sport for any team.  Absolutely nothing made sense together.  Happy we cut the cord early, but should have never hired that crew in the first place.   
    • Johnson is gonna want $20M+ next year. That's why they should have drafted Ladd.
    • It's like folk didn't even watch the game. Dalton took a beating, and barely avoided a lot more violent hits. No 35 years old QB is going to survive a season like that. Imagine him against Dallas or Houston or Indy or Detroit or New Orleans twice! He played better than Bryce in that 1 game, but he wouldn't have lasted half the season.
