Thats pretty obviously all on Cam at this point... its no secret Cam does/did things his own way.

Rivera enabled that.

We've heard that Rivera  never allowed Newton to have "hard coaching" from Dorsey (or much of anyone). He basically made Dorsey Cam's buddy / sounding board.

I have criticisms of Ken Dorsey, but none of them relate to his performance in Carolina.

The same Rivera that suspended Cam for not wearing a suit? I find it hard to believe that RR was on the "be soft on Cam" train....

Point being that you need to look for more than just a profile similar to McVay.

Dont let perfect be the enemy of good enough.


The only "perfect" candidate is Sean Payton and its not happening until 2024 when his contract expires in N.O. 
 

i think Ken Dorsey checks every checkbox with the information available to us.

I’ve never seen idiotic billionaires, you may not like him because he’s made some ownership mistakes but idiot lol

plenty of rich and educated fools out there. some clumsily and luckily stumble into success and some just get lucky while some are near savants in one area of expertise, but idiots in just about any other. 

it depends on the realm of knowledge. being an expert in the world of hedge funds doesn't necessarily mean you'd be an expert in running a football team anymore than fixing a lawn mower or directing a high school musical.

There's actually still quite a bit of season to go, but I'm on the "young offensive minds" subset, I'd be more interested in Ben Johnson than Dorsey.

I need to see more from Ben Johnson before jumping on that train. Still plenty of season to go. At least with Steichen he has a resume for building offenses and coaching young QBs.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
