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.

    • the way it should be. the way it has to be.  when you get a rookie (no matter where he is drafted), you don't expect him to play like a vet or even get a grasp on NFL offenses like a vet. if you intend to have him running the offense, you build the offense around what they do and what clicks.  not Young's fault, but he was sold as someone who would be a rookie but has the mind of a seasoned vet. guess what...he wasn't. reich and "his" crew had no idea how to work with a rookie QB or groom one. they thought they knew, but they didn't and it was obvious in the lack of plan they had for him. their plan was to treat him like he was a seasoned vet. even with that, i don't think they had any clear vision not just with Bryce, but with the offense. There was no cohesion between all the various coaches. nothing fit together and reich wasn't a strong enough leader to pull it all together.  i like the approach of starting over with the fundamentals and i think it's good for any new coaching staff or new QB to a system. you don't know what to expect so you start from the beginning to make sure you're on the same page from the beginning. and as you get more used to each other, you learn what works, what could really work well, and what won't work and you form the playbook around that. contrast that with chud who had been working on a playbook for years and just wanted to use it regardless of whether the situation called for it or the personnel he had (on the team or even on the field) fit what he wanted to call.   or last year when we had coaches from completely different backgrounds trying to put something together that was supposed to be a blend of what each brought to the table, but just ended up being a sloppy predictable mess that didn't fit anyone on the team, QB, WRs, and OL.
    • I've always been super pumped up for the upcoming season but I've never been so uninterested in a new season. After six years under Dipper I've been left at end of season drunken and wallowing in my own piss... not invested in the team right now but hope Canales and Morgan make a good team together...
    • There's no discussion anymore, it's just a circle jerk about how bad Bryce is, and it got old a while ago.
