Cam's Footwork in Pictures


Zod

Recommended Posts

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.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
