I noticed . . .

Not sure if anyone else did . . . but our offense with Kyle Allen was quicker in and out of the huddle.  We were getting to the line with plenty of time to look things over.  It's only one game, but if it continues this way, you have to consider that our offense under Cam is paced the way it is because of Cam, not because of Ron, Norv, Shula or whoever.

or they just worked on that during their mini bye week and got better

I’m not saying this is on Cam but this has been a theme for him under center even after bye weeks. 

I really don’t know what to think. It could be an anomaly, it could be that Kyle is better at getting the info out quicker, or it could be that the team is working on it more and there starting to gel after 3 games. 

Cam isn’t stupid. Remember 2015 when we’d get to the line real quick and Cam would pick between 4-5 different plays and audible in and out of plays. Wtf happened to that? This coaching staff needs to play to his strengths. He can read defenses and make plays. I’d love to see more of that when he comes back.

If Kyle keeps winning Cams not coming back

I know that’s your wet dream since that’s the only thing you singled out. But a 100% Cam is better than Kyle Allen. Sorry. You should be hoping Cam comes back to 100% if you want to win a super bowl.

I hope cam comes back to 2015 form but I doubt it. If he’s not running he can’t compete with Allen as a passer

It is because of Cam. It’s always been an issue because of Cam. People try all the time to put it back on the coaches. But it was the same thing under Shula is it is under Norv. When using reasonable deduction, there is only one common denominator. 

When Cam gets to the line quicker or he’s given a “no huddle” offense he plays better.

I imagine Norv gave Kyle a simpler game plan and paid more attention to getting calls in quickly so that Kyle would have time to read the pre-snap defense. Norv takes his time with Cam cause he overcomplicates the game plan and takes longer to figure out what he wants to do. 
 

Cam looks too frustrated when the call takes a while for it to be on him.

I definitely noticed. Not only were we getting to the line more quickly and not risking burning a time out, but our quick play calls, and Allen's presence of mind directly led to that crucial 12-men-on-the-field penalty against Arizona that set us up for the third touchdown drive. I honestly can't remember the last time we caught a team so out of position and then were actually able to capitalize on it!

I don't know if it's Allen, or the coaches identified this as a trouble spot and wisely used the long week to improve on it. (LOOOOOL!!!!) But I like it, and I hope it's a trend.

This has been a recurring theme across multiple offensive coordinators

cam is the common factor

    • When I tell people I was at that game, they usually say oh that’s so cool you had the experience. I call it soul crushing. Why? The weeks and months leading up to it were great, the team was fun to watch every week…some weeks the offense was unstoppable and carried the team (saints and giants road games), other times the defense carried the load (jaguars, tampa). Lots of back and forth games against good teams (Seattle and Indy). Good young players on the team, but the veteran leadership was incredible…from Cam, Olsen, Kalil and J Stew to Luke, TD, Norman, Tillman, Jared Allen, CJ. Role players like Fozzy Whitaker, Cotchery (he caught that MFer), Philly brown, Kyle love, AJ Klein, and so on.  The Friday before the nfc championship my wife and I after a few drinks said let’s see what prices look like for flights/accommodations and we got to talking about how much prices would increase if we waited until we found out if we would be in the big game. We said screw it, we are only out $200 if we have to cancel.  Of course we come out and just pulverized the cardinals in front of the most raucous crowd by far we’ve ever had. We had no idea what we would do for game tickets and then found out a neighbor who worked for the team could get us 2 for face value (each employee got two of their own for free, something cool that JR did).  But then the NFL mafia decided that the storyline of manning going out on top like Elway would give them more goodwill than a non traditional QB who didn’t connect with their target demo and the rest is history. I never have and never will watch that game again. I am just hoping I can see them win one in the 2nd half of my life.
    • Dude you are smart fan. 3 on 0 breakaways won’t matter who is in net. You gotta be better on this one. 
    • Raiders are gonna get a good one. Rather have Mendoza fly out and play for the Panthers tomorrow than Bryce
