This is foolish. Nothing inconsistent about anything but the offensive line. He came in first week 2 touchdowns no ints next week 3 touchdowns no ints this week 1 touchdown and 2 picks and his arm is shot and way to inconsistent lol

There are several factors in our offenses struggles lately. Cam not knowing the offense since he just got here a few weeks ago, OL, etc. But fact of the matter is that anyone who has watched Cam the last several years can see that his throwing shoulder is not stable at all. He cannot drive an offense with his arm at this point. He has some solid passes but way too many of them are completely off the mark, and it's not just normal inaccuracies that any QBs have, it's his arm clearly being unable to consistently throw accurate balls. It's tough to see and his energy and return were a welcome sight after Sam, but Cam is absolutely not the answer at QB going forward.

Does anyone nowadays actually care about watching the game or is it all shitty hot takes and Twitter edge lording ? 
 

I mean cam did not play good but the whole team in totality look like slop, it would be a world difference if his play was solely the reason we lost.

play cam, you know what you have in Sam and Pj

He generated plenty of velocity on his pass to Moore today so to say his arm is all gone is one thing. He won't ever be gunslinger cam again yes that injury destroyed his elite arm strength. But him not knowing the offense is just the price of doing business when you since a qb midway through the season. You could go with PJ but you see what that would get you.

There is no fix for this that time and another season  baking in the oven will only fix. I think most of cams inaccuracies come with no time to release the ball and pressure. Sure that first int was on him. Second one I think 50/50 Moore got beat up badly and Howard an elite corner won.

What Rhule also admitted in his explanation of sitting Cam today was, if the other team gets the lead, the game is over because we can't protect our QB when they know we have to pass, Brady can't call a game, and the defense can't stop the opposing offense when they can't commit to the pass.  The end.  Fin.

Stop it dude P.J came in and immediately 2 sacks taken and then sends up the Ole PJ special a Pick right on Que.  This tells me it's not a Cam problem it's a offensive line problem qbs aren't magical creatures that create offensive line play and make wrs good. You need players around them especially the offensive line.

Look at Jacksonville they landed a generational talent in Lawrence.... he's getting destroyed. Look at Wilson the qb many of us wanted for the jets... getting destroyed. It doesn't matter who the qb is if he can't turn around after a 5 step drop.

So it wasnt a Darnold problem either right?  Right?

Darnold had a 4 game stretch of putting up what 1-0 touchdowns and the ints. More ints than cam on a weekly bases. Cam before this game 5 touchdowns 0 ints. Even this week 1 touchdowns 2 ints is about as good as daronld does on a average week. So it's a combinations of the 2 

Cam even while playing bad is scoring more than darnold. Darold throwing ints and not scoring thats the difference and the level of competency at the position.

So everyone else is at fault when Cam does the exact same thing Darnold got ripped for?   Got it.

Darnold isn't scoring like at all..  Cam is battling and scoring.. Darnold going 3-4 games without a touchdown and you want me to say he's better than cam? Cam in 3 games has scored more than darnold in what 7? How is that equal?

May as well start Cam. Absolute floor is he keeps sucking, but gets a proper send off from the fans. Upside (and more likely) case is he knocks off some of the rust, gets up to speed on the playbook, and has a decent run to end the season (and gets an even better send off). Not really anything to be gained by trotting out PJ Walker or Darnold.

Realistically, it’s three dudes who have no medium- or long-term future in the league, but one of them is 1) beloved and 2) very probably still the best player of the three. Pretty easy call, IMO.

    • So let me ask you this, and this is assuming you watched the first 2 games of the season. The falcons game was a back and forth between to 2 bad teams until bryce throws 2 crucial picks to help atlanta pull away. The second game was a sloppy game where the defense scored and our offense did absolutely nothing till the 4th quarter, bryce even fumbles and saints return for a TD. If Dalton starts both of those games is the outcome and playout still the same for both games?
    • sure.  I acknowledge we had a rookie making rookie mistakes.  You fail to acknowledge a pushing 40 Dalton however paired up in this trainwreck wasn't going to yield significantly better results. good results.   And Dalton didn't even win his game vs a wrecked Seattle D.  Andy Dalton couldn't even find a way for his team to beat the Carolina freaking Panthers in 2022.  A team with an interim HC, that couldn't score, playing like it was 1970.   And Andy Dalton had REAL weapons on the field at his disposal.   All Dalton had to do was score more than 10 points.  He couldn't pull that off.    I probably got as little faith in Bryce as anyone here.   But I'm not willing to go this Andy Dalton route.  Maybe he wins 4ish here.  But he wasn't doing much here.  Dalton isn't Cincy Dalton.  
    • What do you think really happens here?  Do you think that Seattle loss with half a secondary is a realistic game for Dalton to consistently have?  Do you expect 40 year old Dalton to throw it 60 times and rack up 361 yards while constantly getting hit to work against other teams?  If we played him all year do you think he would rack up 6,137 yards 34 TDs and 0 INTs on over a thousand attempts?  That games wasn't a great game.  We were trailing all game and he threw it against a terrible secondary 60 times averaging 6.6 yards an attempt.  He had one "deep" pass to Chark (wide ass open) for 27 yards who ran another 20 for a TD.  That's not happening against other teams.  I would be surprised if Dalton made it two more games taking those kinds of hits and probably losing both of those games.  Our OL sucked, Our coaches sucked, and our weapons sucked.  Remember Rhule beat Andy Dalton and his Saints offense (which has a better OL and better weapons) just the prior year.  Yeah Matt Rhule...  Darnold put up 43 yards and 2 INTs and Dalton STILL couldn't beat him.  That's embarrassing.
