Keep this in mind about Sunday

Mainly when it comes to Cam.

Cam is being asked to do as a rookie QB something that simply has never occured before in the NFL in terms of rookie draft picks starting week 1.

New scheme for his entire O, rookie QB, and the entire team missed OTA's to work on the offense. If Cam doesn't suck pretty badly.....that will be a good thing. You are not going to see the Pitt preseason Cam all game.....maybe a drive or two but there will be a lot of Cincy Cam....and that will be normal and okay.

If we manage over 17 points with him, I will be a happy dude

He doesn't have to necessarily put up any particular stats but if he can lead us to a point total that can win games with a solid D, that'll do. I just wanna see him play regardless; Cam's fun to watch.

Yup, based on the limited amount of preparation time he's had thus far compared to previous rookie QB's, if he doesn't totally suck that should be considered a success.

plus, in addition to the entire offensive still trying to learn a new scheme......Cam will see stuff all Sunday from the opposing D he has yet to see at the NFL level.

I mean given Cam's circumstances.....if Carolina did win and Cam was decent.....it would be one of the greatest rookie debuts in the history of #1 overall QBs. So beating on Cam and Carolina going in there and walking out with a win......really is saying a lot.

Greatest debuts in history?

Beating the Cardinals?

So if he plays bad, it's still a success because he doesn't look totally retarded and if we beat a team that is a notch above us but still pretty terrible, it's the greatest rookie #1 pick debut ever?

I guess Cam can really do no wrong.

    • Give me Anthony Hill Jr or give me death
    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
