Cam's Footwork in Pictures

Many of us have commented on how absolutely god awful Cam's footwork is this season.

Here is a prime example from the Giants game...

1, Which foot is his weight on while throwing?

2. Do you see any players in his face?

3. Look at the trajectory of the ball. Would you guess that to be long, short, or on target?

4. The third frame, one knee almost touching the other. Clearly moving backward by throwing.

This HAS to be fixed if Cam has any shot at being a star in this league. The longer it is allowed to go on, the longer it is going to take to fix the issue.

I'm not worried about it... We were also running the read option into the ground that night, as well as most of the season. His footwork plagues him most when we have him run the option and when he's been pressured, the latter being the problem when most QBs footwork fails. He'll get it together.

Not nearly as bad and as frequent as cam's. Not even close.

Well, no....it isn't as bad as often as a young guy in his 2nd season but it was close when they where that young.

Current version of Eli throws off his backfoot just as much as Cam....he just doesn't have all the other issues.

Cam has terrible mechanics on screen passes even when there's no one around him. I've never seen so many passes where a running back would have to leap into the air to bring the ball down. Watch Brady, Ryan or Brees. That ball just drops into the receiver's laps because the QB isn't just chucking up a can of corn.

You'd think a coaching staff hired so they could be teachers or whatever would try to fix that but hurf durf *makes jacking off motion*

I mentioned this a few times like others.

Go back and look at the pick 6 he threw this past Sunday. Even though Smith fell down, causing the pick 6, look at Cams footwork on the play. He looked like a shortstop or something making a throw from deep in the hole. Telegraphed all the way. Smith falling down might not have saved it, who knows.

I'd accept shoddy foot work for a couple years if he'd stop fumbling the ball away.

He must be approaching Clausens single year fumble record .

Throwing off the Blackfoot too much and I dnt blame Cam for it. I blame Rivera and his coaching staffs for doing a poor job developing Cam for pretty much two years now.

Rivera wanted "teachers"? I don't see any of our students learning anything from these teachers. We may arguably have the worst coaching staffs in the whole entire league.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
