Could cam succeed in a fox type of offense?

I'm sure Cam would've been a pretty damn good game manager. Instead of letting him try to win the game by his arm and turning the balls 2-3xs a game.

I told myself after the 2010 season that we would probably be a better team if we decides to keep

Foxy around. We probably would've been a better team with an identity also. With RR, we have no identity of who we are. RR came in and talk about being physical and how we needs teachers. I still haven't seen that.

Oh well, no one could help it bc like it or not it was Foxy's time to go. It wasn't going to happen and I think we all feel the same.

If you replace chud with dan henning would it work?

Absolutely. But there is a middle ground here. We don't have to go all the way back to guaranteed draws on 3rd and 15.

Think of Jake, only with more deep throw ability, who can break off a 20 yard run occasionally.

Hell yes it would work.

cam wouldn't have been drafted had it been up to fox. if cam had been drafted he sure wouldn't have gotten the start unless forced to do it...just like he was with clausen and The Golden Calf of Bristol and even matt moore. he has never had any interest in grooming a QB. i remember a comment he made several years ago where he essentially said it was a waste of time.

if cam was forced to play in a "fox offense" we would see him stay in the pocket and we would be seeing cam, the true dual threat QB, forced to play in a way that isn't natural to him nor would it have taken advantage of all his skill set. it would have been a square peg getting forced into a round hole...and he wouldn't have smitty to throw to because there is no way smith would have stayed.

fox with The Golden Calf of Bristol last year happened because fox was forced to go with The Golden Calf of Bristol by orton getting traded away...just like fox was forced to go with another QB by jake getting released. with The Golden Calf of Bristol's play last year fox essentially just threw his hands up in the air and gave up and let The Golden Calf of Bristol be The Golden Calf of Bristol because he sure wasn't going to be fox's ideal QB. they went out and got fox's ideal QB...an old QB that has been around the block a few times already groomed and matured.

this whole scenario just has so little basis in reality it's funny....well, not really funny either. it's just kind of ehhhh.....

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
