One ridiculous Cam play


Peppers90 NC

Recommended Posts

I think it was the 4th quarter, 3rd and 10 or so, maybe 12.  It was the play Cam got facemasked, I would love to see another video of this:

 

He evades getting sandwhiched by two DE's(one of them pulls his facemask), then he drops his shoulder and trucks another defender, then he somehow gets the ball off to Tolbert.  Tolbert gains a few but we get the first down because of the facemask penalty on Bennet. 

 

The will is there, the skill is there, I think he is going to have a great season once things start clicking.

I don't think it was a facemask on the play. If it was I missed it in the replay. It looked to me that the Seahawks' player got his hand in Cam's shoulder pads and cam had his head down when it happened, the ref on the opposite side interpreted the jerky motion from the tug on the shoulder pad and Cam's helmet being down as a face mask.

 

Either way, it was a great escape from a collapsed pocket. But after the escape it only result in a small check-down. Wilson launched his pass about 30 yards for a completion when he escaped traffic.

Wasn't a facemask but still a blow to the head.  Still a penalty and still 15 yards.  You can not touch a quarterbacks head.  Thats been the rule for who knows how long.  And both defenders reached up and smacked the poo out of his head.  Tolbert had his facemask ripped too on that play.  Easily could have been 30 yards in penalty yardage.

easy team to face..  you could be right.  long term though?

i think they are a pretty decent team, they were on tv up here along with the Jets/Buccs game so I was watching both those along with the Panthers, they should have beaten NE.  

 

Other than the heartbreak fumble yesterday, i felt pretty good about our team.  yea we could have been better, and we will be.  7 points will never be enough, but there is reason for optimism, at least right now.

there have been reasons to be optimistic for years now...  until they earn optimism there is no reason to feel it.

 

they are a good team.  means nothing until they stop losing games they should win.

    • I look at it like get on top of the situation. Stay ahead of it. If it costs you a year of not drafting a starter at number three WR in the first so be it. We need new blood there in 2027 if not 2026, and need to get some OL on rookie deals.   At the same time the big picture is considered, we have a QB that has yet to earn an extension and you can go glass half full if you want but he had about half the good games that he needed to have. Fewer, IMO, but the point is he is not a lock to earn an extension.    Which would really put next year’s number one in play for QB and take OT off the table. So I think it needs to be on the table this year.

    • https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-offensive-line-success-why-building-through-the-nfl-draft-is-the-key   Conclusions drawn This article took a deep dive into evaluating recent offensive line trends regarding the draft and free agency while incorporating team success into the equation. Here are the biggest takeaways:   The best offensive lines in football (PHI, DET, TB) were built through the draft in the early rounds Other teams (most notably LAC) are following the same approach in team building Offensive line is something a team should target in the early rounds (1-3), as the success rate significantly declines in the later rounds both in the short and long-term Offensive tackles have a higher success rate through the draft than interior offensive linemen, regardless of round Acquiring free agent offensive line does have its benefits, particularly for elite units filling one hole. Interior offensive is typically the way to go Top-end offensive line talent is far less likely to be available via trade or free agency compared to other positions year to year, only emphasizing the importance of the draft   My words: we were forced to make some big signings on interior after years of poor OL drafting and neglect. It worked but isnt sustainable. We need to get right. Drafting tackles high is a successful formula. We need to start now to have any hope going forward.
