Cam's bad day the WR's fault.

I don't think he was blaming the receivers directly, just making a lame excuse and trying to explain away his lack of timing. I would honestly be more concerned about his comments referring to "selling cleats and lifestyle apparel"... poor choice of words at a bad time.

I saw his interview with the NFL network post workout and I don't didn't think he came across as demeaning to his targets at all, he just basically just admitted he wasn't in synch, timing routes are difficult and that he has alot of work to do in that area. He also said he his comments the past week were a reality check and he realizes "the NFL doesn't need you".

Not saying saying I want the Panthers to draft him, but I thought he came across well and this article just seems to be aimed at stirring crap.

The only quote with any kind of meaning in the entire article.

In all seriousness, how do you do that if you actually play quarterback? I like that he acknowledges the error, but what exactly did he underestimate? The importance of working with receivers?

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
