I see what is going on here....

that aside, it is worth the the time to poo on Ron for that horrific timeout at the end to give the refs a look at the PI in the endzone.

I'm sorry, but I find it very hard to believe the NFL would call a PI after review on that play.  DB had his eyes on the ball, and the Jag WR got both hands on the ball and was able to go up and catch it without interference.  

Ron calling a timeout there isn't terrible, I realize in the emotion of the game, you just want it to be over and think it was really bad.  I just think he knew it wasn't very likely and it was more important to make sure the defense was correctly set-up.

With less than 4 minutes remaining in both the 2nd and 4th quarters, the Panthers had 3 timeouts.

 

I think we can conclude that it's not a coaching problem with burning unnecessary timeouts, no?

I think regardless of whether you love Cam or hate him, this is a very fair observation.  I tend to support Cam more than focus on his shortcomings, but I'm also coming to this conclusion.

The announcers on CBS pointed out that Jacksonville immediately subbed in a different fresh receiver that Cockrell would be covering. Their notion was that maybe Ron called the timeout because he was worried the CB who just had to go max effort on that play would have to cover a guy who was completely fresh. Most of the time announcers are worthless, but this actually struck me as a plausible notion and a timely observation if true.

I honestly don’t think Kyle calls audibles or has access to full usage of the offensive playbook, these past few weeks while we’ve seen standout plays from Kyle unless I can be corrected I’ve yet to witness anything like described.

    Yeah, because every game plays out the same. We had time outs left, and we did not have Cam. Ergo...Cams' fault.

 

    The Huddle, you gotta love it.

No I'm more Cam supporter than Cam critic. I try to be evenhanded and I have no anti Cam agenda, but I have noticed that since Allen has been our qb, both timeouts and play clock have been far better managed. I think the evidence suggests there is something to this notion. This isn't just a today thing, this has been marinating for several weeks now. Keep an eye on it next week and beyond and judge for yourself.

What I want to know is why does the communication look fast with Allen but Cam seems to have issues.  I wonder if they skimmed down terminology or something for Allen.  Odd. 

Me too.  I truly believe the playbook has been custom made to fit around Kyle’s abilities. Things like the read option (which honestly is a blessing to have been removed) hasn’t been seen in weeks. Hell, I don’t even seen him call for blitz pick ups. It’s an interesting take for sure.

I'm wiling to consider this as a possibility.

Cam haters are in heaven right now. Every little thing that goes right while Kyle plays will be a Cam weakness. 
 

Y’all really need to get a grip. Allen is nowhere near even close to a 100% Cam right now. With a healthy Cam we aren’t giving the ball to CMC at the goal line so he can throw a pass. 
 

And a healthy Cam is for damn sure throwing for more than 185 yards against that Jags secondary.

Allen right now is a game manager. It’s clear Norv doesn’t want him throwing deep, either because of trust or because the line can’t protect him. Maybe Allen improves and becomes a really good qb but right now he can’t touch a healthy Cam

      I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

      This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
