Pete Prisco also thinks the read option is to blame for Cams problems

Also watched Cam Newton: Problems are mechanical. Reason: Read option.6:07pm - 24 Oct 12

 All the faking, ball-faking, leaning. His mechanics have suffered.

 he throws so much better as a real QB.

Chudzinski better change this poo or he should be relieved of his duties this month.

LMAO I just posted this in Zod thread

They must want to be fired, if I was Cam I'll say to hell with ya. Rivera deserves to be fired

Is Chud unable to see this or something? Has anyone asked HIM about why does he insists on running the read-option? We need some reporters with some BALLS.

The option may open up some nice throwing lanes once in a while down the seam but Cam's mechanics look terrible. Play action with the option is the reason. He throws without a real drop back. QBs still drop back in shotgun in order to step into throws. Cam is always flat footed when making option-play action throws.

Not good. Been saying it for weeks.

I don't care we require him to stand on his head for running plays, he still should be able to throw a 5-10 yard pass.

I don't like the run option crap either, but it seems to me Cam's problems are mostly mental and not handling the pressure of being a nfl qback with a lot of attention on him. I do think he will get better as he gets older.

I said this last year, and I'll say it again, we need to use him like Big Ben, don't run him, he's too good of a passer to do that, get him to use his legs to extend the play and he could be a perennial pro-bowler.

Dan Patrick also said about as much about Cam today on his show, this is what needs to be done.

I am of the honest opinion that the read option is worthless in the NFL, and any OC or HC that thinks it's what the need to do needs to be fired.

    • The problem is if he leaves, all of the Bryce fanboys will use it as an excuse for any regression or lack of progress that Bryce shows. Despite having an expensive OL and 2 first round picks at WR. I really would like to see the real Bryce this year before the 5th year option next spring.
    • As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.
