The deep-ish ball to DJ moore that drew PI….

[electro's horse]

That was a walk in TD with the right throw. 
 

was that a miscommunication or did cam just throw a duck?

miscommunication is understandable. If that were the case it looked like cam should have thrown the ball sooner. 

Or…..is his deep ball still toast?

He’s rusty. Give him an opportunity. 

[ForJimmy]

The timing it just way off because he hasn’t had the reps/practice in with his players. If he let that pass go a second earlier it was of been right on. 

[Smithers]

He’s had a total of 4 hours of practice. Not sure it’s fair to critique his first deep throw with the team.  

[Khyber53]

At the time of the throw, it actually looked pretty steady. I chalk it up to being a bit short because the two haven't had much time to get their timing down. It didn't look like a wounded goose, just looked like his spot was a bit shorter than DJ was running for.

Could be a number of things, but if you're expecting 2015 Cam back you're going to be sad.  In looking at Cam's tape from last year, he can still get you the 40-50 yard ball if he can set and throw.  But he can't make the 60 yard falling backwards pinpoint bomb.

This is a different Cam physically.  We need to care for him.  We need to use him to his strengths and not overuse him.

[Pejorative Miscreant]

Not sure but he needs more reps before concluding. He just got off the couch mid-week and probably needs a week or 2 to get fully acclimated.  Reserving judgement.

Agreed. He’s got to get used to our receivers game speed

Yeah this. Like Cam's deep ball ain't what it used to be, and even if it was a "duck" it's still miles better than anything we've seen since 2019. 

he can still get it down field don't you worry.

Hard to say. I don't think any of us should expect Prime Cam cannon. That is probably gone forever. But, he can still be a dynamic playmaker and run the offense efficiently.

THAT is what we need from him.

I don’t really care if he doesn’t have the arm anymore to throw that deep for a td as long as his throws give our receivers a chance to make a play.

He can still do it on occasion, not sure he'll be able to even attempt it in week 18.  My biggest concern about Cam is his shoulder and whether it can hold up throwing 25 - 35 times a game.

Even if Cam is just a functioning role player in this offense that's a million times better than what we had.  Especially with an aggressive defense that can give him favorable field position.
