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.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
