Cam's pocket presence

[TheGreatestOfAllTimeCam]

I'm sure everything will end up fine and we'll go 7-9 or 6-10 like usual. Lets all try and relax

Cam was not protected at all today. He needs more time 3-5 seconds for play to develop.

[Pox 08]

Shula is a reject.   They don't want him to run anymore.       He probably got a stern talking with the few times he did take off on his own in week 2,  to run the ball.         

 

It's better for him to sit behind an Oline that he probably has zero faith in..   No qb has ever been injured while in the pocket.

[tailg8or]

He's not a true pocket passer.  Cam creates opportunities by being a game changer.  He keeps the defense guessing with his legs and burns them with his arm.  Shula has taken Cam out of his game.   

 

We need to go back to his rookie year and let Cam be Cam.

There are so many problems with this team how the hell could anyone know where to start to fix them?

 

 

Bellicheck could take your team to the superbowl this year.

 

Its called good coaching.

[jtnc]

That entire right side of the line was allowing pressure all game.

I think it's time to take a break from The Huddle.

I'll talk to you guys when the anger and cynicism has subsided. Peace!

 

Yeah, I'm signing out for the day too. Peace!

From what Ive seen of this game and last week and taking a look at your schedule, you guys will be lucky to get 4 wins this year.

We'll win some games we are not supposed to unless this team.just completely gives up

I mean even the Bills did today.

I mean are we seriously talking about this or was I the only one who saw Byron Bell be completely worthless in the most literal sense of the word today.

 

 

Where exactly was he supposed to step up to?

  We all saw what happened to Bell.  Unfortunately, nothing was done to fix it.

Some people who tend to put more blame on Cam than he really deserves will point out that he technically has a pocket for a few seconds. But we were running routes that take a long time to develop (a problem we had with Chud, too) and the line couldn't hold the pocket for long enough.

 

The same folks will retort that even the announcers pointed out that he had some open receivers, and that's true, but largely they're referring to the time Ginn was open on a short crossing route on 3rd and 11 and Cam got a first down on that play.

 

Cam by no means played a perfect, or really even decent game. But it all comes down to the o-line being asked to block for slow developing routes, and we simply don't have the talent for that. Both of our touchdown drives came in situations where we were calling quick passes in a hurry up offense, giving him time to hit a man before the pocket collapsed.

 

The offense stalled every single time Shula slowed down the offense and needed the line to protect.
