Cam's throw to Shockey was amazing!!

[HeatCheck]

It's throws like that that help you realize why he hasn't focused on his lower body mechanics. It is because he can get away with just using his arm strength.

Amazingly dumb. Jake got burned at the stake for making such throws. With Cam, it's cool.

Jake threw up ducks for grabs. Jake wasn't throwing darts on a rope to the sideline. there is a difference.

If Cam had lobbed it up then it is a different story

That was a nice throw. Too bad it wasn't completed

teeray were you the one uploading these?

No. I stole the clip from the other thread.

I'm not going to say it was a good decision. That ball may have needed to been thrown out of bounds.

And I realize that it was incomplete. But the sheer physics of the play are amazing.

He was tackled from behind so he had no legs. He was falling forward so he had no trajectory Yet he throws a pass 27 yards down field with velocity.

If you can't see why that pass was amazing even though it was an incompletion then you are...

Darts can't be intercepted? Bad decision, though very athletic play.

[Panthro]

True. Cam has thrown a lot on INT's this preseason.....

not a bad decision.....Cam could of stood in the pocket and made an identical throw with no pressure and it wouldn't of been a bad decision. Cam can do things others can't......can't apply the standard rules Jake Delhomme played with to Cam.

He threw it to the sideline, well placed, on a rope, in one on one coverage.....avoiding the sack. It would have been a horrible decision for Clausen to attempt the throw b/c he doesn't have the skill set to attempt it.

If he threw that ball differently and in more coverage....it would have been a bad decision.

Throwing the ball down field, falling down with defenders hanging on to you is not a good decision. Granted, he got enough heat on it that the DB couldn't jump the pass. Shockey did a good job shielding the DB too.

You may be right on that particular play in a microcosm but what I fear is that suddenly he feels he should make that throw all the time and instead of taking sacks or throwing the ball away he is making tough, risky throws that could lead to turnovers.

oh yeah bro total double standard

that pass should have moved the chains on the pass interference and if shockey wasn't interfered with it's probably caught. i'm pretty sure jake has never made a throw like that in his career so if he was ever burned at the stake for it, someone should apologize to that man. he didn't get sacked, he didn't fumble and he didn't panic, so i'm not seeing the delhomme comparison.

Missed the point entirely.

How exactly do you shield someone when you are behind them with their head in your chest?

[Dpantherman]

He is a risk taker. Its risk vs. reward, can that get you in trouble? Hell yea, but if you hit it you look great. Favre made a career out of it. (Spare me, I'm not comparing him to Favre).
