For those who don't read the articles...it is worth noting Smith says this is not a Cam issue or a QB issue. All young players press. They want to make plays and help teams struggling.

In fact I think Smith has pressed late in his career. His WR comments reminded me of his play on recent years when he would fight too long on plays and fumbled a tad more than usual

Cam is on a team and is COACH BY ken Dorsey. Wtf did anyone expect? It's pathetic. Tom Brady and Manning and Rogers are already more qualified than Dorsey. He should be coaching at a D3 college but no he gets to do his internship with us.

Then we give Shula, king of the not knowing match ups offensive coordinator. Someone's tossing the game somewhere.

to do what?  Play in and NFL game and win NFL championships?  Yes, true.  Coach?  We don't know.  All of them are still playing, and none of them have coached on any significant level.

 

Just because someone didn't have the physical tools to be a great player, doesn't mean they are a bad coach.  The opposite is also true, eg Mike Singletary.

 

Playing and coaching are two very different skills, and many of the best coaches were players who weren't very good.  I don't know anything about Dorsey as a coach, so I'm not going to judge him either way.

Most coaches never played in the NFL. Dorsey did. Being a good coach has nothing to do with being a good player.

You'd think this team lost by 30 and Cam threw 5 INTs with all those opinions going around.

I ain't never seen you round this parts stranger. Number one, we don't take kindly to losin. Number 2, we don't give a fug how much we lose by. Number 3 we lost to the fugging bills on a blown assignment in a game that never should been within reach for them.

Number 4, I really doubt your name is Cam or Kem.

Peyton practically is a coach now. He is an OC. He just occasionally has a boob interject

It seems that Cam had an introspective summer. He watched his youtube news conferences and has changed his dismeanor to "mature" to please others. It looks like he is not having fun with the game as he did the last 2 years. Cam is an awesome talent who seems to feed off of emotions. When he shuts down his emotions his game is off. I'd like to see the fun Cam who wears his emotions on his sleeve. That's when he's at his best. I'm sure winning would help a lot.

I'll agree he's his own OC, not a coach however.  There's a difference between being able to do something, and being able to teach someone else to do something.  Larry Bird was an awesome coach.  Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and Isiah Thomas, not so much.

 

Peyton has complete control over the game he's in, but he hasn't had to teach anyone else how to do that, yet.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
