Derek Anderson , Damian Lewis talks about Cam

[mc52beast]

Former b/u qb Derek Anderson and d lineman Damian Lewis were interviewed on WFNZ,;

Said only idiots judge Cam on what he wears

Said his sprain is still bothering him, one reason why he isn’t running. Could be mid season before he can run effectively.

Said his shoulder is probably fine, just needs to get time with his weapons and get comfortable in the pocket

Said it’s not Cam’s fault that the o-line is allowing so much pressure

Said Darryl Williams need to be moved, start Greg Little

Said Hurney, Ron and others will lose their jobs if things don’t turn around

[Mr. Scot]

Definitely hope Newton heals quicker than that. By midseason, we could potentially be in a really bad spot.

Agree with moving Darryl Williams, but not replacing him with Greg Little.

Sounds spot on

[beastson]

Why fire Hurney if things don't turn around? He went and got pieces for the defense. He didn't tell the coaches to switch Williams and Moton. Its not Hurney fault Cam shoulder fuged up and its taking time that we don't have to work through it. The same goes for Gettleman. They both put "enough" pieces around to NOT lose 9 out of last 10

That's Ronald to blame. I understand the concept of cleaning house and Hurney goes, cool but don't put the blame at Hurney feet for this.

So why play someone hurt that can't run or throw. That's smart and if I was players I would want out. You're not giving them best chance to win with a hurt QB

Rivera has done it throughout his entire career.

That's kinda like asking "Why fire the coach just because other teams are coming up with better game plans?"

I don't see the correlation

Are you saying other teams rosters are better than ours?

[hepcat]

All pretty reasonable takes. Even if this team rallies and finishes say, 8-8, I would be extremely angry if they kept Ron. It's playoffs or bust. He's supposed to be a defensive guy, taking over the play calling, and his defense still isn't that great despite numerous 1st round draft picks and highly paid players. Cam's struggles aside the defense should be dominating and it isn't. And it's not like Tampa Bay is sporting a world beater offense yet they still got torn up by Chris Godwin (WHO?)

Who would you put over there? Moton?

Yep.

With the technique problems that Little has, even an only halfway decent professional defensive end would eat him alive.

All you have to do is stay just a little bit out of his radius and he'll reach for you and put himself off balance.

I'm saying winning seasons are hard to come by when Marty Hurney is in charge.

That's not a coincidence.

This thread will be glossed over for the obligatory “Cam shouldn’t dress this way thread” that’s bound to pop up in an hour, but it’s still great getting some affirmation of Cam’s status that doesn’t rely on shitty takes from JoeBlowPanthers62 on the Huddle.

And I agree, Cam’s ankle has got to be the reason (or at least a source) as to why he chooses not to run anymore.

Yeah, trust me, I think Little is a lost cause. Not sure Moton is the answer. 

One thing we can both expect, changes won't happen.
