I'm glad he's getting his turn. It's time to utilize this guy in any way possible. I'd trust him more in the Wildcat than D-will. At least he can actually throw the ball.

On the throwing play I would have liked if he threw to Olsen instead of Smith. Olsen was coming open on his route. I lol'd at cam just standing there.

not a bad pass... kind of wish we would do it more and let cam actually take a route to the endzone...at least it would be another look defenses have to prep for.

throwing a pass to cam on a go to the endzone would be money. Maybe run it right before a 2 minute warning or something to allow him to catch his wind during the break...yea Cam is the qb, but he is also 6'5 and the best athlete on the field.

Peppers did it. Why not Cam?

The guys on "Bustin Loose" said it best, Why take out the best Wildcat player in the leauge and insert Edwards. That is a stupid play when you have Cam Newton under center!!

Look at the way the Falcons played it. They all came up into the box to play run. Smith was left in single coverage, which he most likely wouldn't have been had Cam been back there. It was a good play call that caught the Falcons relatively off guard. It just didn't work out.

If we keep using Armanti to throw from time to time, teams will have to respect that a throw is a possibility and start double covering a receiver or two, which makes those inside wildcat runs a little more easy to work with.

We really don't want our star QB running up the gut on plays like that, and Armanti gives us a more robust Wildcat look than DeAngelo Williams does.

Agree with Ivan, the only way the wildcat will be effective is if there is at least some threat that the ball could be thrown. When DWill lines up to take the snap, he's gonna run, period. No surprise there.

I'm not saying it should be done much, but it's possible... hell, Cam would be a hell of a receiver to with his athleticism, at least make the D consider it.

Otherwise, if Armanti isn't going to return punts, and is only going to play WR 1 or 2 plays a game, cut him and put someone else in there on Defense that can play more.

conversely, armanti doesn't seem like much of a threat to run out of the wildcat either. I don't know who they think they're fooling.

      fug the HATERS

      By t96 · Posted

      We agree here dawg. I'd love for Bryce to succeed as would all huddlers. I have not seen a single huddler hate Bryce for anything other than his play on the field / potential / skillset. He hasn't gotten any of the irrational hate having nothing to do with football that Cam got. And yeah I understood going into this season with Bryce again as there weren't a ton of options, but man we missed the fuging mark on upgrading at backup QB with someone who could actually push Bryce. Bryce had zero pressure on him with a 100% washed up Dalton being the only other NFL caliber QB in the system. That absolutely needs to change this offseason. Ideally with an actual starter upgrade but that seems extremely unlikely due to not having many FA options and a bad draft. But at the very least with someone like you mentioned, young/upside and/or day 3 pick in the draft.   Another note, we have a top paid and top performing OL, great young talent at WR incl. likely OROY, great RB group, average all around TE group, offensive coach with creativity in the system and good play designs (poor situational playcalling but still I put out current offensive coaching staff over Shula who held Cam back for instance). Not the absolute best situation for a QB to be in, but still a very good situation around him. And yet we have a bottom 8 offense (6th lowest points scored). Imagine taking a victory lap for a QB leading his team to the 6th lowest points scored in the league and the 22nd highest passer rating (despite being asked to do less than many other QBs; i.e. Bo Nix who isn't great either and has a slightly lower passer rating but Sean Payton actually lets him try to throw the ball deep and has him throw significantly more than Bryce).

      similar to Atlanta and the NHL.  Atlanta has lost two NHL teams (and lost a minor leaguer).  Now there's another coalition pulling together another proposal for Atlanta to get an NHL expansion. While I'd like hockey to be back in Atlanta 'cause hockey is fun, I am skeptical that it'll happen based on previous teams' experience here alternatively: similar to Atlanta hosting a Major Tennis Tournament in advance of the US Open every mid/late summer.  Aside from the fact that Atlanta is said to be the country's largest Tennis playing city (with both USTA and ALTA, along with a number of side leagues) - playing tennis outdoors in Atlanta summer is miserable *and* they had difficulty attracting players... ticket sales were not good. So the Atlanta Open closed after 14 years.  They just couldn't make it happen, even if for all intents it appears to be massive tennis interest in the surrounding area.

      Like Kuechly….. still picking off QBs

      So I saw where Luke was doing that show parallel to the game. Whatever it was, statcast something something, knew it would be a good watch. I don’t get ESPN any more but that would be one of the about few things I would watch outside of games.     He doesn’t fool around on the radio broadcast.
