Cam is sick


Recommended Posts

Oh boy....let's hope it's nothing serious.

You know if we lose another game I'd love to go ahead and put Anderson in just for the heck of it. I just wanna see what would happen if Cam misses a game. Because something tells me he's not even a real plan B and more of a symbolic back-up QB.

It's obvious 80% of our offense is designed squarely on Newton's rushing ability, even the passing plays, so what would happen if we try to run the same plays with a guy who can't run? I don't think the D's are going to be fooled.

I foresee this: hand off, hand off, hand off, hand off, hand off, pass, hand off, hand off, hand off, hand off, fake pump to hand off, hand off....

I doubt that....Chud digs the deep ball. He dug it when Anderson was his guy. For the same reason you couldn't get Fox to not be ultra conservative.....Chud is going to always go big IMO.

He may dig the deep ball...but we run a pistol like 60%. That only works because D's know Cam can be an option.

I don't think Chud has a completely different playbook that he practices for Anderson running I formations and other under-center designed plays so if it ever happened, it means we strip out our playbook.

Who's going to take our looks and formations seriously with Anderson in there?

    • So we cut him if we don't give him the option?  I'm pretty sure there are players who didn't get the 5th-year option that played year four of their rookie contracts with their draft team.
    • I didn't say do nothing if we don't draft one in the 1st and I"m not counting on a FA to magically become a franchise QB. But signing a FA to be our starter for the year and then re-address the next offseason would be FAR better than reaching on the wrong QB in the 1st this offseason. Feeling we HAVE to find our long term solution just because we need a new QB is how we got into this mess.  We thought Two Gloves would be at worst an average level QB for a few years, that didn't happen, so we went out and traded for Darnold.  That didn't work so we went out and traded for Baker, that didn't work so we went out and traded up to get Bryce. Our last 4 QB moves were all trying to force a solution, none of them worked out, and we're still trying to find Cam's replacement all these years later.  We'd just have been better off spending a year or two building up the rest of the team and going year to year on FA QB's while doing so.  I get it, it will be frustrating to deal with, but then when you find that actual long term solution, they plug right into an already built out roster and you're ready to contend immediately.
    • Great win, should be 3-0 but I'll take 2-1. LaMelo is an MVP caliber player, period.   This is looking like an incredible draft so far. Sion James looking like the exact type of role player that all contending teams need to have, absolute steal in the 2nd. Kalk is a work in progress and I question how much upside he has but he's already been a considerable upgrade at C for us compared to the last several years (outside of healthy Mark which of course was rare).   Really seems like new ownership/front office has change the culture here significantly. Every guy looks bought in now.
