he was never close to going down 10 times. He was close to going down once, maybe twice.

No, I agree, with the writer. You're right in that Cam was never close to going down, but he just makes escaping pressure look that easy. Several plays started out with me thinking "He's going to get sacked!" I'd say about 10 times. But Cam escaped every time. An average QB would have been sacked at least 6 times in that game. Clausen would have been sacked 10, plus threw three desperation pass interceptions.

How sack-proof and fumble-proof Cam has proven to be gives me a stiffy.

We knew he'd be hard to bring down, size wise. But he seems to have the innate ability to keep one eye on the backfield and the other downfield.

That same "sense" protects him as he's running the ball. He seems to have eyes in the side and back of his head seeing the defense converge on him. And, when they finally do, he has the athleticism to (usually) avoid a direct hit.

      I like DC. I liked that after game 2 last year - which was game 2 as him being a head coach, he benched Young.  I like that he has those balls. I was then confused when he didnt start to feature Rico after his run.  DC is in a tough place with Young. He has an offence he wants to run but a QB that cannot do it. So do you bend to try to work with what Young can do.. or force your system?

      Yeah This is a big part of the challenge.  It’s the blind leading the blind without established guys.  At the same time the saying is you lose a game fle every rookie you start.  Still, I like that we are playing young guys overall.

      Oh he said a lot. He’s spreading blame. It’s a classic tactic for shielding a single person. You spread it out evenly so instead of one person getting hit with a club, everyone gets a tap on the hand. You protect the individual but eventually lose everyone else after the hand taps add up. He’s going to rug flip him, watch. He's playing the nice guy “trying to make him successful” and defend him, and protect him, and then towards the end of the year, he’s going to rip the rug out from under him.
