Didn't see this discussed before.  I know my opinion is going to be a bit biased but I have a hard time believing there were 86 better plays than Cam's 72 yard TD run vs the Falcons this year...

 

The poll has that play comfortably in the lead as the best play of that block of 10, I would guess most agree with me that it should be ranked higher.

Yeh, it prob should. However, rg3 did the same thing and from a few (very few) more yards out. Plus he did it before Cam. If he didn't it would be ranked higher. Because we all kno how much love they are giving the rookies from last year because their team made the playoffs. But Andy Dalton was in the playoffs cam's rookie season, but no one considers him better than cam. He has just been overlooked this year, but that will change soon.

Damn guys.....stop with the fuging pity party every time you feel we are slighted.

 

You guys care WAY too much what the media thinks.

 

We shut them up on the field.  With a 6-10 and 7-9 season the last two years, we are not going to get any love or respect.

 

Laugh at the media now....and it will be even sweeter when we prove them wrong this year.

Cam's TD run was 10 times better than Bob Acronym's run yet Bob's run gets all the hype as the worlds greatest football play.

Heh yea, Cam's dancing and weaving at the end to ensure he got into the end zone was a thing of beauty.  Almost as beautiful as Smitty's hustle and blocking.  A lesser man (with a lesser WR as his wing man) would have been tackled at the 20 when the defense caught up.

The coolest thing about that play was that Cam didn't even look like he was trying.  Its like he knew what he was going to do and knew that they couldn't stop him.  I don't know if I have ever seen a player be able to just do whatever he wants to do.  Peppers was the closest but he didn't want to.  Cam wants to and has that Peppers like athletic ability to dominate.

I'm not whining, it doesn't matter where they rank it. I just think they would have ranked it higher if rg3 didn't already do basically the same thing from 76 yards out. They are giving lots of love to the rookies, which is mostly deserved. They played great. But they have thrown Cam to the side right now, but like I said as well as others, that should change pretty soon.

    • Bryce just didn't maximize Hunter Renfrow's skills. ***rant incoming*** But this isn't just about Bryce Young mistiming passes to Renfrow so bad that he's going to get Renfrow killed or hurt, this is also about incompetentence by Dave Canales. Renfrow can still play. He's putting DBs in a blender out there---making them play twister at the top of routes to keep up with him, and dumb Dave has the nerve to cut him. How about putting Hunter in the best position to help the damned offense by appreciating his skill set, DC? You're letting Bryce's apparent inability to make an accurate throw, or at least his timidity to push the ball down the damned field cloud your judgment and miscalculate talent---or maybe just miss on talent just as much as Bryce misses passes due to playing pussified football. It's fúcking unacceptable.  Speaking of misjudgment, I don't know if it's Dan Morgan or Canales, but Eijiro Evero is not the business at DC. I have said a few times that his scheme is not conducive to run-stopping efficiency. Hell, and after watching some clips of plays, now I absolutely know why. The gaps are at least half open before the play even fúcking starts. You are setting the opposition's RBs up for success with too much damned space at the line and in the second level. If our guys are taken out in these areas---at the line and in the second level---then the defense is screwed because it must rely on the safeties to cover too much ground to make the tackle. At least put Ransom in who is motivated to seek and destroy if you're going to effectively leave the safeties on an island.  And speaking of rookies, get our two new defensive ends more snaps to see if we can't generate more of a pass rush. For all the good the continued sorry display of defense that you're putting out for fan's to see (Ejiro, Dave and Dan), you may as well get the rookies generously involved. Fúck that money we gave second-rate (maybe second-rate) vets, we need a damned spark getting after the QB. Watch it, it's just another breakdown of the sh¡t we were subjected to last week. I say this with all respect: Fúck you, Dave! Fúck you, Dan! Learn how to run a fúcking franchise. Maximize the players, regardless of what you think you're supposed to do by the book. Cut the dead weight before another season is lost and fans lose interest in September. EE is "Ew!" Or for emphasis "EEw!" /end rant
    • But nobody is saying he is a good deep ball passer.  But the facts are since he's returned from his benching, he has been throwing downfield.  Whether you want to credit the scheme, Bryce himself, or whatever, he has been pushing it deep.  Not to any positive results mind you, but it has been happening.
