Ive been saying Kyle wasnt the answer all along. I didnt ever bash him. Im glad he played as well as he did before this game. I truly appreciate it. He was a unproven commodity, and I was always irked how quickly our fan base wanted us to kick Cam to the curb. Im thankful for Kyle because he actually gave Cam time to heal instead of forcing to play injured to keep Ron's job. So despite this game, Kyle salvaged the season, now if we get back the Cam we all know and love we can get another streak going again. Our only shot is the WC, even with two games left vs brees.

missing option for Allen already is a franchise QB. a lot of those plays people thought were bad were actually good if you know anything about football. for example, when he dramatically underthrew or overthrew receivers on every deep pass attempt he was trying to keep them from getting winded because he knows that it sucks to have to catch the ball and you can get tired or even hurt. he's playing at a level that we aren't used to seeing around here so fans dont know how to handle it.

I want Cam back but not against Tennessee and its 8th ranked defense. I rather have Allen the next two games and hope that he can split one. Then bring Cam in vs Atlanta. 

If Cam is healthy why wouldn’t you want him back? If he’s healthy and you still don’t want him to start because he might play badly against a solid defense then he definitely isn’t the guy either. We might as well start Grier for the rest of the year to see what he has if that’s the case.

If Cam's totally healthy you have to start him.  I gotta be honest though, I'm not sold that he's going to remain healthy enough throughout the year to be effective.  If he could become more of a pocket passer that would help.  Stop running him unless totally necessary.

I always believed he got crushed and hurt in the pocket a hell of alot more times than when he ran. Only time I know he got hurt running was his concussion in atl at the goaline.

Broke his ribs in 2014 against the Pats in preseason running as well and the shoulder was chasing down an interception but yes most of his big hits have been in the pocket.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
