Can we talk about Cam’s ‘escape ability’

Everyone wants to talk about Cam’s shoulder / zip / velocity

 

 What about Cam’s ability to shake defenders? In years past he’d scramble in the pocket to get that extra couple of seconds to get a pass off. I’m just not seeing that anymore, any hint of pressure in the backfield and he’s down.

 

 That ability and his scrambling ability made him a legitimate dual threat, it was what made Cam the QB the world knew

 

 look at the gif here, he looked bigger/stronger where now he looks a bit leaner

he definitely looks leaner, but i wouldn't be surprised if that was an intentional choice. 

it's just difficult for someone that size to keep that mass on and not have a bunch of nagging injuries. Zion Williamson is an obvious example of this. Roethlisberger is a different example of this because he stayed by just getting fat. 

I doubt it's effected his arm strength though as that is more structural than a question of mass moving mass.

Says "any hint" shows clear and obvious

 

Also I too can't believe he's not 25 anymore, I figured uniquely he'd stay young forever.

    • Many of those posters are still around. The ones who compared him to hall of famers in this and other sports. They're just biding their time waiting to see if Bryce will suddenly turn into a great QB. I think the way you frame it indicates the problem. It's either on one side people who as you put it "don't like him" (in most instances impossible to truly know on an anonymous chat board) or people who need to see him with stacked talent to form a conclusion after hyping up as a one man show a year ago. You say there are discussions to be had but if it involves anything remotely on the side of negative instead of the "everything is awesome" end of the spectrum it is met with talk of what some are now describing as a pathological need to be critical of him. As if the rest of the sports world doesn't have these same blunt discussions whenever he is mentioned. If there were truly other more notable discussions to be had right now that haven't also been discussed endlessly we would be having them. We just had yet another uniform thread. Instead the top 2 threads dominating the front page for the last 24 hours since the first blueprint episodes dropped have revolved around the starting QB. That's just the modern NFL. Some people want to shoot the messenger over that because they don't like the banter that follows 🤷‍♂️
    • #1 thing you need for any rookie QB (as far as personnel goes) is the OL. Second thing you need is a run game that takes the pressure off the rookie and allows him a chance to grow. run games are just easier to manage for someone still learning the ropes. third thing you need is reliable bail out option receivers who can 1) get open and/or 2) just catch the ball. last year we had none of that in place. this year i think we've gotten together everything that he should have had last year. 
    • Seriously? That's 34 air yards at best. I have yet to meet a Bryce defender who doesn't have laughably low standards by which they judge QB play.
