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.

      He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes

      Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
