So the question is how many games could we afford to potentially drop to do that? 

The only guarantee for our season is that if we go undefeated the rest of the way we'll get in.  That's a tall order, yes.  However, if we do manage it, no one will be able to say we don't deserve to be there.

Past that, you're rolling the dice.

Don't see Cam not learning playbook as criticism, just a fact about any QB in a short time. Don't want to be a team or fans that has to find insults in every comment so we can play with a combination of butthurt and chip on the shoulder.  Rather just find confidence in what we can do and roll with it.

Rhule said they weren't going full playbook, but rather the game plan.  The thing is, Cam needs to get the timing with the guys down more than anything else.  Cam's thrown all of the routes in his career.  They just have different names.  So long as he and the receivers are close, then WFT has to respect the pass.

I still expect a LOT of running the ball.  The main hope for most of us is competency.  We don't need to throw for 400 yards and 5 TDs.  We do need to string drives together.  We do need to convert downs, and score points.  If we can score 25ish points a game while having good ball control, then that's about all we could ask for.

If we pop off for another 30+ point game, I won't complain!  But I don't think anyone is expecting a miracle.  That reminds me of something I heard:  Who is under more pressure?  Cam or the Coaches?  While I know Cam wants to win, it's really up to the coaches to make it happen via the game plan.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
