Refusing to get a shot in the arm and ended up shooting himself in the foot.

As far as prospective teams go, I think Houston is probably his best bet. 


Great point. Houston could use him.

I think Steelers make most sense if they cut Haskins who looks like garbage

I think he ends up with the Steelers (probably the best spot for him) b/c he will have a chance next year if Ben retires

Or the Texans will sign him since Tyrod is going to be their starting QB as of now.  BTW we play them Week 3

I'm surprised by this move. However, it highlights some real discrepancies between how good our fans see him vs how others see him. Two franchises cut him instead of trading him. He took relatively very small contracts to get on a team. He fairly good this preseason but that's now what other's see.

 

I think most of the Huddle realizes he's done, just a few people in denial left over.

It also highlights the liability of being unvaccinated in the NFL right now. Had Cam not had that recent COVID "misunderstanding" he's probably the week one starter. Instead, the Pats got a glimpse into the future of what having a QB unvaccinated this season is going to lead to and decided to clarify their QB situation. I don't blame them. It's hard to find a bigger Cam fan than me but this is 100% his fault.

If I was Cam, I would retire before playing on that horrible team

I wish Cam would just announce his retirement.  Hate to see the ending get worse and worse. 

forget Houston.  Cam's ego and career has already taken a big hit......he would just get murdered in Houston.   He went to NE to prove everyone wrong.  That opportunity doesn't exist in Hou.

I think you're right, although he would have been on a very short leash.  I think Mac was going to start at some point but Cam would have at least been the backup.  Now he's out of a job.

    • It probably would be. Given that most 6th and 7th rounders aren't NFL game day material except on the Panthers, the pick might improve us slightly with a drafted player, but I'd like to see us actually be able to open up the field. I do think some of our offensive problem stem from defenses aren't afraid of Bryce's arm. They cover a short field and that makes life a lot easier for them.  If it doesn't work though, unless we get rid of the scouting department and whatever drafting algorithm Dave is making us use, it won't really matter anyway. 
    • I think the Baker/Darnold thing has been overblown. QBs that struggle with the team that drafts them and go on to find success elsewhere often do end up going to multiple new teams before they figure it out and/or find the right situation. It just so happened that we traded for both guys in back-to-back years and neither player had quite figured it out yet. Baker, I think, needed more time and a better supporting cast. Darnold, I think, benefitted from a year on the bench in San Francisco a ton. I don't really have any ill will towards either of them. I think they both came here with the best intentions after coming from difficult circumstances; unfortunately the Panthers were - and still are, it seems - also in the process of figuring things out.
    • At this point this is all I want from this team. I'm done hoping for wins. I just want to see a competitive team for 4 quarters. Come out of the gate hard and don't give up no matter the score.
