he f*cking sucks, throws a few picks and can't bounce back. has the mental fortitude of a 6 year old. 

I noticed that ever since Cam started at QB, whenever the starting QB (no matter who it is) throws an interception in a game, we have a much, MUCH higher chance of losing. It's almost a guaranteed loss once the QB throws a pick. I am sure there is some advanced stat out there for it.

Well of course he drops back too quick.  If he doesn't, his linemen would be being pushed back over him otherwise.

That's actually....a valid point.   Sadly.

He's probably thinking that if he takes too long in dropping back, he'll have a defender basically teabagging him the moment he stops his dropback.   

Sam sucks donkey dong but once again it all comes down to the O-Line being a bag of dongs, too.

No wonder we're in the mix for Watson...

What a f*cking mess this is...

Well as he points out.  That isn’t what is actually happening on all these plays he is referencing.  It’s Sam out of whack.  And the right throw doesn’t happen.  And if it does, it’s then late and wrong since Sam isn’t in sync with anything.    The playcall works.  But Sam is so out of whack he can’t make it work.  He just fugs the works up.  

and you basically are defending Sam for playing poorly because of the belief of what could of happened.  That didn’t.   And it was just him in the end being bad.  So it’s faulting the OL when they do their job

It’s why the right call was always for him to be sitting somewhere like Trubisky.   To see if his game can ever develop be fixed to get back on the field.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • 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
