Who says the Dolphins are better this year? Based on what?

I don’t think you understand the concern very well.

Which is how his shoulder holds up. He looked great for the first 4 games in 2018 to. Then the shoulder went flaccid.

If he is slinging it around week 10 I can agree with you.

Exactly.  He has had a lot of time for it to heal because he has played how many games since Dec 2018?

So RE: Cam's play today -  I only caught some of his plays during the game, but I went back and watched a lot more, and he played well.  Fit the ball in some tight windows.  He did not even try to go deep. But man did he BURN the Fins on the ground.  And he was so effortless in his runs - really reminded me a lot of how he was pre-injury.  He is really fun to watch when he can move around the field like that and has coaches that call plays that make use of all of his skills.

Cool charts from NextGen Stats from this game for Cam:

Kyle Allen threw for 261 yards with 4 TDs his first game of the season last year.  His next 7 games, 6 total TDs.

Amazing how good QBs can look when the defense doesn't know what they are going to do.

Nothing Cam did is unexpected.  It is what he has has been doing for years.  He has always been difficult to stop when he was hitting intermediate throws (even moreso deep balls, but the Pats do not really have the personnel for that right now IMO) and moving the ball with his legs.

Not really comparable to Kyle Allen IMO.

How the hell you compare a “rookie” qbs performance to a veteran qb, let alone a former mvp is beyond me lol

Trust me, nobody expected Cam to rush 15 times considering the last time he did was in 2014.  If anything, I'd say that's indicative of a bigger problem with his passing game.  It's too bad he can't play the Dolphins every week.

Maybe if that's all Cam did was pass but 75 rushing yards and two rushing TDs as well as many highlight worthy plays as well as the VICTORY signals hes more of a dominant QB than any QB the Panthers could have hoped to replace him with. Sucks to suck buddy.

Belicheck is going to ride that man into the ground on the way to a couple early season wins. He's just a rent-a-player to Bill and he's going to use him as such.

This is silly. Cam had 10+ double digit rushing games total in 2017 and 2018 including two 14 rush games in 2017.  So in his recent play time we are talking about more than a third of his games having double digit rushes... Whether 15 rushes or 14 it makes no difference.  Anyone that had done research on Cam should have expected that with healthy legs, they would execute a game plan to give him space to run. was it a guarantee he would run a ton? No. But it seems weird to gameplan against Cam and not expect. Or maybe they did and just couldn't stop it - we have seen that plenty of times.

I do think he will need to stretch the field a little bit deeper to open up more running lanes against better defenses though.  But maybe he was playing smart and taking what they gave him given his personnel. I didn't see much of the game, really only highlights and a few other plays I tuned in for when not watching us, so I can't say.

Cam's next gen stats chart is dink and dunk defined. He will need to show he can throw a ball over 15 yards if he plans on beating Seattle.

Kyle Allen is now on par with Cam according to this guy lol
