Would Cam be better with a new coach? (NFLN Segment)

That's a dumb question. poo Jim harbaugh made a scrub like Alex Smith look good. You think RG3 would look this good with Dave wandstadt (sp?) as his coach?

Folks always want to say that in the NFL coaching means so much more than any other sport. Or say some crap like football is the ultimate team sport. Then at the same time will say that it's all about the QB like the coach, system and other 21 teammates don't matter.

I can't take it with these fools in the media.

I don't know what it is about the media, but for some reason, they actually think this read option offense suits Cam. They celebrate Chud like he is a genius, when the read option offense is the major reason why Cam regressed this year. Unbelievable. Why don't these talking heads just sit down, watch Cam's rookie year, compare it to this one, and tell it like it is.

John Gruden was talking all night long about how our offense was designed to help Cam out. Like he couldn't adjust to the NFL unless they ran some plays he ran in college. That is just lazy. Let's forget his rookie season, where he ran a pro set offense, and threw for over 4,000 yards. The only rookie to do so. Man, I'm about sick of all these lies.

Last year Newton and the offense was at its best when they were using the option and everyone loved it. Everyone loved Chud, everything was rosie. Now that they can't execute and defenses aren't fooled by it the revisionist history has begun.

With good OL play.....and a healthy option RB. It is deadly. 2011 and Washington prove it.

This year we have bad OL play, a gimpy Stewart and a RB who stinks at it.

Washington actually runs their read options out of the pistol formation. This allows their runner to get a gust of speed going toward the o-line, much the way a regular NFL snap would have it. The way we do it, Cam and the runner are bumping into each other. This actually takes away some of the vision of our runner, and he is not able to adjust well when the ball is in his hands. (Unless the defense is completely fooled)

The read option, running it the way we run it out of the shotgun, kills an NFL offense.

Casserly said absolutely nothing in that video, reaffirming what an idiot he is. The only point or opinion he came close to making was that Chud has been good for Cam. True last year, complete 180 this year.

Because last year it was used 1 or 2 times a game. When it's every play, and ain't surprising anyone, it's easy to defend. Common sense. It's less a problem with execution and more a problem with predictability.

Very true. And, I will bet that they will have much less success with it next year.

Defensive players and coaches are too good and too fast for it to work long term. They adapt to what you are doing too quickly. This is the same dynamic that you saw when Miami ran the Wildcat. they had a ton of success.....until teams had sufficient tape on it and began preparing for it. Then, the success fell off a cliff.

In other news RG 3 thinks him and Luck can be the best 1-2 QB ever...

RG3 seems to run his mouth a little too much....

Where is Thomas Davis when you need him to legally power bomb this punk on the sideline like he did in Washington.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
