CMC....I think we have forgotten just how good this guy is

I think if the question were who is our best player, he'd be the most common answer (and it'd be correct).

Favorite player is a little different though. Each person can have a separate rationale.

I was implying you'd left him out of your list of lunch-pail guys.

He just didn't pop in my head.

While it may be unpopular maybe a part of me feels like the others never quit on us the organization quit on them often after their bodies failed them.

Luke was a different story. He has all the right in the world to retire but me personally I would trade 15 years off my life to have played 1 snap in the NFL. While I don't logically have an issue with his decision maybe I have an emotional one?

Idk. I endorsed the decision from the moment it was announced and it didn't surprise me, either.

What did he have to prove? Pro Football Reference already ranks him ahead of guys like Urlacher as a Hall of Fame linebacker. What was he gonna do, sacrifice his body for two more middling-to-bad seasons for two more All-Pro nods to add to a career already more than enough for the Hall of Fame?

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce

      Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
