Cam's throw to Shockey was amazing!!

Not the TD throw; the incompletion when Cam was nearly sacked, got his legs rapped up, and then threw the ball 27 yards down field, on a rope, with no legs, while falling down to Shockey who was interfered with (which wasn't called) or else it damn well cold have been a completion.

It clearly wasn't Cam's best decision of the night. But looking back on the throw, to throw the ball with that much velocity, 27 yards down field, without his legs, and in a game situation, is simply incredible

It is around the 2:40 mark of this clip.

Another cool little thing I noticed is on the very next play when Newton breaks off a 20 yard run Steve Smith is completely pumped up after the run. He is pumping his fists and talking poo. I love guys like him who get pumped up after big plays even if he isn't the guy with the ball. I love me some Smitty.

he made the right decision.

the days of playing it safe and being a game manager are over. if cam has the ability to make throws like that - which he clearly does - fug taking the sack, if we wanted that we'd start clausen.

personally i look forward to these types of throws in the future.

He made the right decision, but it has nothing to do with being conservative or aggressive. The fact was that the ball was thrown at a great place, the defender didn't turn around in time and there was some interference there. The matchup was good, the risk was actually much smaller than what people think it was. That made my jaw drop.

meh. just another incomplete pass. I get a tad more excited when he completes them. Every QB in the league can make that throw (incompletion.) He did show amazing athletic ability to get the throw off though.

It wasn't an incomplete...Check ur video again. The ball was right at shockley's gut. It looked like the Steeler grab his hand, not knock the ball down.

    • At this point the Tepper's seem to be leading you around by the nose based on how much time you spend carrying water for them so I'm not surprised you're struggling. We are the only team who saw fit to install Andy Dalton with his zero career playoff wins as a culture cornerstone and a key mentor. Even the putrid Saints wanted no parts of that. Truth hurts 🤷‍♂️
    • They have drafted two QB's since they took Hurts in the 2020 Draft. Tanner McKee(6th - 2023) and Kyle McCord(6th - 2025). In that span we have drafted Bryce Young(1st - 2023) and Matt Corral(3rd - 2022). Technically, we have invested significantly higher draft capital on QB's(albeit one less than they). It's not the investement that is the issue, it's the results. Corral was literally not a rosterable player with a THIRD ROUND PICK. We gave up a king's ransom for Bryce to basically get Davis Mills results(so far).  
    • No QB from the draft or free agency was going to change this being a losing season for us. I mean we’re rebuilding, everything we’re doing is meant to be for winning tomorrow.
