Dude are you high or is this a joke!!!

you can’t fix accuracy with a better scheme or less or better talent. 

For real.. I saw Cam get a change in scheme where he didn't always have to throw to 50/50 hand wr in tight window down the field all the time.. To having better pass catchers and players who made plays off easier throws to a 6 to 7 point jump in completion rate... I saw Josh Allen go from a career 60% comp rate guy jump to almost 70% last season why??? Oh wait that added better pass catchers around him and gave him way more easy throws during a game...

What are you talking about??.. If you've have watched football the last 5 years you would see this trend happening all around the league...

These are the passes we were consistently asking Cam to make with 1 proven pass catching targets. 2014-2015 season...

2018 -2019 we give him better weapons and a scheme that didn't asked for always throw needles threw screen doors.. Before he got hurt in the Steelers game was his best comp% season ..

His arm is strong enough to throw it 40 yards in the air and he can make all the throws. He will develop more velocity as he improves in an NFL program physically and mentally.  He won't be confused for being athletic but like Brees he is elusive in the pocket which is very important.

The dude wins games.

Something we could stand to do.

Alabama wins games. But… Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Justin Fields, Trey Lance, Mac Jones, Kellen Mond, Kyle Trask and so on and so on all won games. Teddy B in college won games.

I'll trust the staff if he's the guy, but I'm not getting excited about the poor man's Matt Ryan when Teddy already exists. 

When his selling points are "he can throw the ball" and "he won games" that's quite the low bar.  When you toss in the details of "he can throw the ball to the best skill group ever assembled in college with an amazing OL and run game" and "he won games at Alabama where career backup QBs can win a national title", it's a little less appealing.   Dude just screams safely mediocre and not much else.  So if the Kirk Cousins & Alex Smith's of the world get you all hot and bothered, go nuts. Couldn't be me though.

I'll still take the 2001 Canes.

McGahee, Portis, Gore, Johnson, Winslow and Shockey. Two certain HoFers.

    • You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that truly elite players will always have a market because they're elite difference makers and that at the "devalued positions" the NFL has discovered that those are spots where unless you have an elite talent there you have an opportunity to get similar results out of run of the mill talent for run of the mill money compared to good talent for good money. The drop off in overall unit performance isn't dramatic dropping down from "good" to "JAG" and it saves money to invest in the premium positions. It's about skill sets and what is hardest to find, simple supply and demand. There's just more serviceable LBs and RBs and safeties out there than their are CBs and pass rushers and QBs. And honestly, a big part of our historic lack of consistent success has been investing too many premium draft and cap resources into those devalued positions. Yeah, we've had a lot of great off the ball LBs and RBs on our way to be a franchise with an overall losing record. Pointing to our success at those positions is proving my point because I just point to our W-L record and overall lack of historical quality at premium positions like QB, WR, CB, etc. We've sucked in large part because we've valued the wrong position groups. In a vacuum it doesn't matter. But in actuality every high pick or big chunk of cap you spend on an off the ball LB or RB or IOL is a high pick or big chunk of cap you couldn't spend on a QB or CB or WR or OT.
    • Right before Kuechly retired, we had some of the worst D line play that year.  We were ranked 29th against the run in 2019.   I remember even Kuechly struggled to get off the blocks at times because the linemen were on second level so quickly due to our porous line made up of Kyle Love, Vernon Butler and a washed up Gerald McCoy.   
    • fingers crossed for BlueSky embeds to come with the board update at least all the schedule reveals will be on the youtube
