What do you attribute to Cams shaky start today...

First, lets give him credit, he was poised and made the right throws to lead us down the field to have a game winning drive in the 4th. However, he was shaky a lot of they with overthrowing guys, what do you attribute it to? Was it his ankle and he was timid to step into throws, was it just him being a rookie? FYI, im not worried either I know Chud, Rivera, and Shula will all sit down and disect and correct it.

I think we finally saw him act like a rookie. Why? Don't know, maybe b/c he 'knew' he should win this game & was pressing too hard. I think he will get it corrected...with the help of the coaches. He has shown that he's very coachable.

BTW, I do not like your avatar. Cam is our superstar, not a criminal! Yeah, I drank the kool-aide. :-)

If he has time in the pocket and is throwing it high then it's all mental. I think his mechanics are great unless he his rushed and that tends to put him in the throwing off his back foot mode. Everyone was comparing him to MJ and Tiger Woods all week on the Tele'. I think he was nervous and thinking about things too much. He will adjust.

Playcalling had nothing to do with missing wide open receivers.

Agreed Jack. Not sure how that could be based on playcalling. I don't even agree with the comments some made about his foot. He stepped into his throws & ran with it. I did not see him favor that foot at all.

Cam's foot is why I think he was inaccurate today, but we kept calling pass plays down the field when Cam was struggling instead of more screens or short passes or more runs. So yes play calling had it's share in why Cam struggled.

    • Number 9  Carolina Panthers  Bryce Young, the first overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, produced career highs in completion percentage (63.6%), passing yards per game (188.2) and passing touchdowns (23) in 2025. However, those numbers aren't exactly stellar by NFL quarterbacking standards. Even though the Panthers backdoored their way into the postseason in 2025 as NFC South champions with an 8-9 record, Young's performance was up-and-down. He threw for the third-fewest passing yards by a quarterback to make the playoffs in the last 20 seasons, per CBS Sports Research.  FEWEST PASSING YARDS BY QB TO REACH PLAYOFFS, LAST 20 SEASONS (MIN. 16 STARTS) PASSING YARDS PLAYOFF WINS 2012 Christian Ponder (MIN) 2,935 0 2008 Joe Flacco (BAL) 2,971 2 2025 Bryce Young (CAR) 3,011 0 2006 Steve McNair (BAL) 3,050 0 2019 Josh Allen (BUF) 3,089 0 Young did deliver some high highs, like when he threw for a franchise-record 448 yards passing in a Week 11 overtime win at the Atlanta Falcons and when he went toe-to-toe with Stafford in the playoffs in a 34-31 defeat.  Kenny Pickett couldn't win the Cleveland Browns' quarterback competition a year ago, and Will Grier is a career backup. This is Young's team.

    • That thread has all the huddle legends either posting in it or mentioned in it. I remember everyone of those folks and I truly miss seeing them post here. This place was so much better with them here.
