What I want to see from Cam

So with Cam's debut over, here are some things I would like to see from him on Friday. Cam has had some time to watch some tapes and practice, so I hope/expect to see just a slight improvement.

Accuracy: The throws Cam made in the opener were all around good for him being a rookie. However, I would like to see higher than a 50% completion rate. Any improvement in this area would be great. If that means taking fewer shots down field to get a big gain, I am for it.

Keep the drive alive: Cam didn't run at all last week, which I was fine with. But with him starting, I would like to see him escape pressure and extend plays. If Cam can get a first down without getting destroyed, I say let him do it.

Get a touchdown: Whether it be a throw, a run, or a hand-off to a RB, I want to see Cam put together a drive that ends in a TD. Although I won't go crazy if it doesn't happen, I think running with the 1's should give him a better shot at scoring a TD. But field goals work too.

No fumbles: Since Cam is a rookie I can understand if he makes mistakes. Interceptions will happen. But I think Cam has much greater control over fumbling the football. I want to see him play smart, and remember to protect the football. If he is scrambling, sensing pressure, or just taking the snap from center, I want to see basic fundamentals.

That's about it. Although I want great things to happen for Cam, I only expect the basics. Smart play, slight improvements, and solid mechanics.

What do you want to see?

    • This season only ends one way... We win this Sunday. Bryce is decent. We take back 1st place...   Only to then get our brakes blown off in the last two weeks.
    • Here's one of the most maddening things, that will be shown in full light over the next three weeks. The same people around here that called Darnold a bum and Mayfield a washed up over draft are also the ones saying Bryce is a catastrophe. Yeah, and I've been one who said Bryce wasn't big enough, brave enough or capable enough. I said back in the day that Darnold had a lot of fight in him and got shouted down. And on Mayfield, heck I didn't know, I just knew we had a very, very bad team that was run terribly. But I saw both of those guys go out there and resurrect their careers and be play-off bound since shaking the Carolina clay dust off their cleats. And we sat there and cat called their cars as they pulled out of the parking lot, laughing at what nobodies they were. Over the next three weeks, those two guys may just serve us sh!t sandwiches and then settle down to their just desserts. And then we'll probably let Bryce go off into the realm of other teams. And when that happens, will we see him coming back, better than before and we're left to re-sit this cycle all over again? Same naysayers, same results, same revolving carousel of ponies and pundits?  Will we end up looking like the Temu version of the San Diego Chargers back in the day watching Drew Brees come to fruition in the previously moribund Superdome while we whiff on a Manning pick just to be jilted for Phillip "Always a Bridesmaid" Rivers?
